(BULLETIN.) BERLIN, Nov. 30.—Tension between Aus and Servia steadily increasing, all official and semi-offical statements to the contrary notwithstanding. The feeling is growing in Ber- lin that there is great dan ger of another war following the settlement of the Balkan war. This is further intensified by the growing unrest and agi- tation among the Czechs, Serv- jans and other branches of the Slav race in Austria. The Siavs in Austria are so Greatly elated over Servian suce es that they are openly expressing the hope that the time is not far distant when they, too, may be included In the Servian kingdom, or em pire, as they term it. By United Prem Lew ROME, Nov. 3 Why Austria's ike preparations now keep rembling on the verge of general war, is not alone that it fears Servian aggression, but also hat {t faces a disintegration of its own power and the establishment of a great Slav empire, rding to Leonida Dissolati, jt and labor leader of the Italian parliia- ment. Dissolati and his colleagues are bitterly against Italy's backing Austria, if the test of war should come, and are planning to oppose in every possible way the use of Italian bayonets to bolster up the menaced Austrian power The true inwardness of the Aus was detailed 4 Wire following signed sta\ement: BY LEONIDA DISSOLATI. it is natural that Austria, with all of the temerity of des Peration, should play its last card. In the new adjustment of the Balkans, which will result from victory of the Quadruple nee, Austria feels itself de- feated in its most important policy.” A new and powerful political organization is about to be formed-in the Balkan confines an organization in which the predominating element will be that of the Slay. If perfected, it would become a center of at- traction for the Slavs now liy- ing in the Austrian empire, and of whom 6,000,000 are living immediately on the boundary between Austria and the new Balkan-Slav organization that is about to arise. This new or- ganization in the Balkans would not be a danger to Austria if it had within itself the capacity to give satisfac- tion to the Slav element. But the two dominant races in Aust -the Germanic and the Magyar—do not intend to cede any of their power, and treat the Slavs as if they were in a state of siege, while they, the Germanic and the Magyar peo- ples, play the role of police commissioners directing the siege. Nothing remains, there- fore, except to avert the peril, making use of diplomacy, and by arms, if necessary, to -pre- vent the formation of the new Slav political power. The situation at present, therefore, is for Austria to find the means for intervening in the Balkan war in a manner that will be detrimental to the interests of the Slav element, HAS FINE THEATRES Probably no city in the United States has finer theatres than Seattle, considering the population. On page 8 in today’s Star will be found announce- ments from Seattle’s leading theaters, telling of the attractions for the coming week. There will be found the Moore, the Orpheum, the Seattle, the Empress and Pantages. Many hundreds of thousands of dollars are in- vested in Seattle’s theatres and the best talent ob- tainable is shown here. The Seattle Star guarantees more than 40,000 paid circulation daily. That's what makes The Star such a good want ad medium., Just phone Main 9400 or Elliott 44 or call at the downtown office, at 229 Union street, with the Souvenir and Curio Shop.
