dors that 'Montenegro had uncon-
ditionally 'placed the question of the
future of Scutari in the hands of the
European Powers -
The decision, reoehed by King Nich-
olas, at the very last moment, had the
effect .of relieving the great tension
in European polities, and caused un-
bounded satisfaction to diplomats and
the general public.

that this action of Montenegro would
do away with all -necessity for mili-
tary incursions into Albania such as

with hirmanity which began with ten
