SERVIA SPOILING FOR A FIGHT
That Seems To Be the Most Warlike Feature of the European Situ- ' ation. Vienna, Oct. 9. —War between Aus-tria-Hungary and Senna is a recognized possibility, although it is believed here that it will be averted. King Teter Is in a difficult position on account of the clamor of the Servians for war, particularly since his tenure on the throne never has been very safe. That the Austrian government recognizes the possibility of war the military precautions In Hungary show. All the bridges over the Rave and the Danube near the Servian frontier are strongly guarded by patrols, and four Danube river monitors have been concentrated at Budapest. Belgrade, Oct. 9.—Great crowds surrounded the palace last night, shouting tor war and calling for the king to appear. Finally King Peter, accompanied by the crown prince, came to the balcony and Implored the people not to cause disturbances. He said: “Trust me and my government; both will do their duty.” The crowd cheered the king, but continued to shout: “War with Austria."
