well known, is entirely too small to ac-
commodate even the members and the

CABINET CRISIS


Vienna, oct 30 Emperor Francis
Joseph today accepted the designations
of the members Of the Austrian cabi-
net. Prince yon Windiseh Grctz, court
chamberlain and member Of the priyy
council, is in communication with Count
Hohenwar EUR Gauectsteln on the sub
ject Of coalition ministry
The resignation Of the Taalfe cabinet
is likely TO bring matters in Austria
TO a crisis The cause Of contention
is the franchise bill, by which the
number of electors would be greatly in
creased In this the Germans see a
radical disadvantage on account Of the
numerical superiority Of the other ma
tionalities
The position Of the Taaffe ministry
has also been greatly weakened by the
federalistic project by which the
Czechs as well as the Hungarians We're
to be pacifcd This project is favored
by the Germans because it involves
the autonomy Of Bohemia, and if car
ried out Bohemia could be more easily
absorbed by Germany.
Count Taalfe is not in sympathy with
Germany ami his diplomacy was not
favored by Emperor Francis Joseph
His position has been precarious for
some time, and no wonder that his
tenacity in serving the empire in the
way he thought best has left him.
