Of the Disorder.
Vienna, Nov. %. - The members 8 the
Austrian ministry ON Sunday rendered
their resignation to Emperor Francis
Joseph. who accepted them, and intrust-
cd Baron Gautsch, who holds the port
folio Of public instruction Of the retir-
ing ministry, with the task Of forminga
new cabinet. HI. ..ss 05s

Joseph addressed an autograph letter
to Count Badeni. decreeing the adiourn-
ment Of the reichsrath until further no.
tice.

meeting Of the council. Emperor Fran
els Joseph had previously received
Count Badeni. Baron Banffy, the Hun
garian prime minister, Count Welsers-
helm, the Austrian minister. Of national
defense, and Baron Gautsch. 1t is as
serted that the emperor at first declined
TO accept the resignation Of the cabinet,
but Count Badeni replied: Your mai
esty, ! cannot take the responsibility.
Rloodshed will ensue if I remain in
Office" Thereupon the emperor re-
luctantly accepted the resignation.
Herr Wolff, when arrested Saturday
in the reichsrath. resisted with such
energy that he broke away a portion
of his seat. It took six constables to
overpower him. Twice he sprang out
of the cab in which he was being car
ried to the police station, and as it
drove off with him at a furious pace
he shouted to: the crowd: 'tPcople OF
Vienna, don't let your Deputy Wolff
be arrested" The constab'es thrust
him back into the cab, threw a white
mufler over his mouth and held it
there. There is no doubt that this ar
rest. together with the fact that the
LuegeStes, seeing that the popular dis
content was growing rapidly, aban-
doned their fence, attitude and espoused
the tobstructionist cause, was the chief
