Semi-CentenniaI Scheme Abandoned
for Lack of Cash Important Health
Measures to Be Urged Before the
legislature.
Big Fair Is Dropped.

The semi-centennial plan of celebrating
the iftieth anniversary of the State is
dead. It's epitaph is, "Died from want
of State PRIDE" At the meeting of the
committee of one hundred, held Friday
afternoon in the city hall at Milwaukee,,
the committee of twenty-fv which HAS
been at work raising the amount demand
ed by the committee of one hundred from
Milwaukee, reported that it had been able
TO raise over 100000 in the short time al
lowed, and stood ready to guarantee the
entire amount of 100000, providing the
committee of one hundred could give as
surances that the remainder of the sum
named for the exposition would be forth
coming from the State. This the mem
bers of the committee admitted they were
unable to do. On the other hand, they
said that it was their opinion that nothing
at all could be raised in the interior of
the State. The exposition project, OF
which so much was expected and which
has been doomed with varying fortunes
for the past year, is now thing OF the
past. But through the energy and clever
ness of the members of the committee Of
twenty-five, the honor of the city of Mil
waukee is intact There is the more sor-
row and chagrin over the outcome as
many persons who are acquainted with
the facts think that the money could have
been raised in the State as well as Mil
waukee. In place Of the exposition, IL.
A. Taylor got through, just before ad-
journment, his plan for the holding OF a
celebration to last several days at Madl-
son in the summer of 1893. X. u.
Thwaites, the secretary of the State His
torical Society, was made chairman OF q
committee to carry out the proposed plan.
The members of the committee are to be
named later.

THE AUSTRIAN CRISIS.
Before 1t Passes Away There May Be
Blood Shed i'm Bohemia.

LONDON, Nov "a letter received here
from Vienna says the published reports of
the political situation in the Austrian empire
convey no adequate idea of the chaos pre-
vailing. "Badeni must CO. is the general war
cry, and his downfall is considered inevi-
table, regardless of the outcome Of the pres
ent fight between the Germans and the
Czechs. The letter adds: mo one can
foresee how it will END. If the Germans win
there may be bloodshed in Bohemia and if
the Bohemians are persistent the Germans
will have to fight with their sharpest
weapons to assert their prerogative and
save the Austro-Hungarian duality. The
danger however, lies in the active partici-
patton in the fight by the Germans over
the border. There is actually small party
in the Rechsrath which openly declares for
Prussia and wants to the former Ger
man provinces handed to the HohenZollerns
A dispatch from Vienna says: DR.. Eben-
hoch will be the new president of the low er
house of the Reichsrath in succession to
DIR. Kathrein. who resigned the presidency
on Oct. 70 last. DR.. kathrein is prOmi-
nent member of the Catholic Peoples party
and a pronounced Clerical, but of German
nationality In his letter of resignation he
gave no reasons for the act; but * was
understood that he was opposed to taxing
extreme measures against the obstruction
being carried by the more aggressive
section of his own nationality. He was re-
ported to have said, at the time he assumed
the post of president of the UnIerhaus that,
being himself a German, he would never
sanction measures calculated to prejudice
that nationality. His retirement from the
chair was regarded symptomatic of
widening breach between the German Cler-
icalS and the remainder of the majority.
DR.. Ebenhoch is man of the most robust
type and of the most determined DISPOSE
ton, and it is expected that his presi-
dency will be marked by a repetition of the
violent scenes that have been witnessed in
the lower house during the past fortnight
