CATION, make Illegal claims against them.
The vigilance committees report shows
that in the State of Iowa the prohibition
law is regularly evaded and that dealers
pay monthly fines for violating il, thus re-
ceiving all the advantages of the license
system, besides being burdened with all
the evils arising from constant and reek-
less spirit of ldwlessness. 1t says that the
repeal of the prohibition law In this State

he expressed spirit of friendliness prior

It is ascertaned that the same condition

Bicycle Races.

DUBLIN, June IA. A. Zimmerman.
the cham pion American bicyclist, was the
winner to-day in the invitation scratch
race participated in by bicyclists from va
rious parts OF Ireland. Zimmerman won
easily by two bicycle lengths in 2:47 2-5,
O'Neil of Dublin second and O'Callagha n

the best Irish record by 1 second. Later

FIVE mile championship.
OF the twenty wheelmen who started
three fell in the first lap. Zimmerman, at
an early stage in the race, came in col
lision with another contestant and was
thrown with great violence against the
rails which inclose the track. Three of
his teeth were crushed out and he was
otherwise injured to such an extent that
he was ompelled to retire from the race.

LOOKS TO RUSSIA.
A Menace to the Triple
Alliance.
AUSTRIA CHANGING FRONT
Some Words From KaInoky That
Were Not Well Received in
Germany.
Special to The MORNING CALL.

BERLIN. June THE speech OF Count
kalnoky, Austro- Hungarian Minister of
Foreign Affairs and of the imperial house
for the whole monarchy to the Hunga-
rian delegation. Saturday, in which the
Count took an optimistic view of peace
and placed an emuhasis on the improve
ment of the relations between austria
and Russia, has caused much irritation
and even evaporation in many quarters of
Germany.
The National Zeitung does not conceal
its annoyance at the character of Count
kalnoky's utterances. and hints that the
military question would be much simpli-
fed if Germany conld take the Austro-
Hungarian Premier at his word and leave
him to complete his relations with Russia,
Of which he speaks, thereby enabling Ger
many to discard the contingency OF having
to carry on war on two fronts.
The Krenz ZAitung regards what it ca lis
Count Kalnoky's attempt to throw dust in
the eyes OF Europe as a sign of Austria s
incurable weakness, and laments the re-
luctance of Austria to share the military
burden of the Triple Alliance. The KreuZ
Zatung asks the question whether Ger
many may not be required to seek aid in
other directions.
The influential political organ Neueste
Nachrichten of Munich expresses the pre-
sumption that Austria is about 10 change
over to the Russian policy, unless, indeed,
Austria has already taken that step, and
that the Austrian Government finds the
Triple Alliance burdensome and is making
itself secure with Russia against the ex-
piraton of the Triple Alliance. With this
presumed state of affairs as text the
Neueste Nachrichten breaches the neces-
sity of Germany being prepared TO depend
upon herself for defense against her enc
mics.
CORRESPONDENTS of papers opposed to
the military bill, on the other hand, lubi-
lanily seize obvious differences from the
optimistic utterances of the Austro- Hun
garian Premier. The Hamburger Mach
richten perceives in those utteranees an
indirect proof of the soundness of Bis
marck's often-expressed fear that Austria
and Russia wonld form an alliance over
Germang's head. The Hamburger Mach
richten says Germany no longer leads the
Triple Alliance, but that Austria is the
leader.
Semi official journals are discreetly
