Austrian-Servian Agreement Reached.

New York Times 100 years ago today, December 19, 1912:
Albania to be Autonomous, but Servia Is to Have the Use of a Commercial Port.
RUSSIA GIVES A WARNING
Premier In Speech In Duma Promises Support to Balkan Allies If Their Rights Are Attacked.

    LONDON, Thursday, Dec. 19.— The Belgrade correspondent of The Daily Mail wires under yesterday's date:
    "I learn that the Austro-Servian dispute has been solved.
    "Servia will recognize an autonomous Albanian, receiving the use of a commercial port on the Albanian Coast connected with Servia by a neutral railway.
    "The Servian Minister of Railways is leaving Belgrade to-night for London for the purpose of giving technical advice to the Servian peace delegates.
    "The question of a customs union between Servia, Bulgaria, Greece, and Albania is under consideration."
    The improvement in Austro-Servian relations is the most conspicuous feature of the news of the past twenty-four hours. The press both of Vienna and Belgrade has adopted a tone of moderation in striking contrast to its previous utterances.
    King Peter has visited the Hungarian Red Cross Hospital at Belgrade, the Prochaska peril has been eliminated, and, altogether, the news is the most hopeful regarding the international situation that has been received for some time.
    It apparently indicates that the Servian extremists received a hint from St. Petersburg that Russia was not inclined to go as far as they would wish. If this deduction is correct it would mean, according to perhaps the most noted financier in Europe, that the gravest peril to European peace has been removed, for in his view doubt as to how far Russia would support the Servian hotheads was the chief source of the anxiety with which the situation was regarded.
