Notwithstanding Gel ninny's efforts, Italy and Austria have failed to reach an agreement Willi reference to territorial concessions. This Is learned from an I authoritative source. Many reports have been current re specting the proposals said to have been made by influential Austrinns anxious to preserve peace with Italy, for the tem porary disposition ot tno province oi Trent, provided Austrln consented to cede It to Itnlly. The latest proposal, accord ing to these reports, was that the terri tory bo ceded to the Pope and that the Pontiff turn the territory over to Itnly ufter the war. Prince von Huelnw. the German Ambas sador at Home, is said to havo frowned upon this suggestion, because he feared that It would he a new source of friction between Austria and Itnly, something which he hail been striving to eliminate.
