VnxsA, Jan. 3L-Archduke kudolpA.
Crown Prince OF Austria, Ma found dead
in bed yesterday morning BY his valet 1t
Nierling. . suburb OF Vienna
The Gazette says: Pate has inflicted .
crashing blow upon III imperisi home
and the people of Austria Hungary. Our
universally esteemed Crown Prince "
1ead."
The Gazette then narrates that the
Crown Prince on Monday went on . %
ing excursion to Xieriing, accompanied BY
several guests, including Prince Philip OF
Coburg and Count Hovos. He felt some.
" hat indisposed Tuesday and therefore
excused himself from attending the family
dinner party At Hofborg. When the
shooting guesto assembled yesterday
morn ug the Crown Prince did not ap-
pear. Immediate inquiries were
and the guests were overcome with the
terrible news that the Crown Prince was
dead from a stroke Of apoplexy.
1t is stated that official private kilograms
affirm that the death Of the Crown Prince
was due to o wound inflicted with q rIne.
Many persons here refuse TO believe that
death resulted from apoplexy and all
kinds of rumors OF shooting By accident or
design are current
Archduke Charles Louis, the Emperor's
brother, is now the heir presumptive 70
the throne. He has three sons, Francis,
Otho Arthur and Ferdinand. Archduke
Ohio is the next her. II Is thought, how.
ever, thnt Francis resignation recently
was only conditional
The official announcements apoplexy
wa the cause OF death modified the alarm
Of the police arising from rumors that the
Prince had been killed while shooting.
Large crowds traversed the main streets
and assembled in groups discussing the
event III bourse first learned the news
through the bourse commissary. A
paralysis OF business ensued, members
rushing to the streets and besieging the
telegraph Offices. The bourse was i'm
mediately closed and the committee de-
cid-d to keep i, closed until Friday. The
Reichsrath also adjourned amid great ex-
citement. The court theaters and all the
private theaters and places Of amusement
gave no performance.
The Crown Prince had suffered during
the last few years Of his life from rheuma-
tism Of the joints. Tuesday evening he
had n severe shivering fit The Vienna
papers do not refer 10 sensational reports
regarding the cause OF the Crown Princes
dealt. One rumor was that he had been
accidentally shot, while another had 1t
that he had been murdered by \ peasant.
The body will be brought TO Vienna al
midnight.
When the news Of her sons death was
broken to the Empress she burst into tears
and went herself to impart the sad inteili.
gene. to the Emperor, who appeared to be
stunned by the news and unable to realize
the truth.

semi-oificial organ of the government
acknowledges that the Canadians have a

how Canadian loyalty can stand the

thought that the final act viii be seen
Gntil the judges hand down their decis

agitation by the imported repor ters who
were called in to aid and abet the local
organs in the assault on the purity of the
tax lists, the party leaders are indifferent
and listless about the whole affair Even
those eloquent gentlemen. Messrs. Hig-
gins and Spruance were so depressed
by the hopelessness Of their
case that they stumbled and halted in
their speeches, their points lacked the
fire Of conviction, and their periods were
not sonorous and effective Compared
with the fervid eloquence Of Senator
Gray, the unanswerable logic Of George
H. Bates and the mastery statement OF
the case made by Attorney Rodney. the
efforts of the Republican champions seem
lamentable oratorical failures. All this.
in our opinion, presages victory foi
