vertheless, in concrete cases it might be found possible to
communicate the results of the investigation in question to the
Austro-Hungarian representatives.

"7. On the very evening that the note was handed in the Royal
Government arrested Major Voija Tankositch. As for Milan
Ciganovitch, who is a subject of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, and

whom the Royal Government itself will see about collecting proofs.

question, it is ready, as always, to accept a pacific understanding,
