Paris, Aug. 8.
While there is reason to believe that couriers be- tween Steenockerzell Castle, near Brussels, and Royalist sympathisers in Austria, have been more frequent in the last week or two, there is little truth in many of the... rumours that have been floated concerning the activities of the ex-Empress Zita.
Her ambitions to secure a Restoration and to place the Archduke. Otto on the throne have been encouraged by events, but according to the Brussels correspondent of Le Temps, contrary to a recent report, the ex- Empress has not left Belgium.
