Vienna, November 2i.--Count Goluch-

all Europe in his annual address yesterday,
TO take advantage of the present era OF
peace and to Join closer for the defense OF
the conditions common 10 Europe as against
the crushing competition OF transatlantic
nations" said turning point has been
reached In European development which
calls for the unremitting attacks of the va
rious governments. The great problems
of national warfare which become more
pressing every year, are no longer matter
for the future but to be taken in hand in
stantly. The destructive competition which
transoceanic countries are carrying on at
present, and which Is to be expected in the
Immediate future, requires prompt and
tai interests OF the peN,e are not to be
gravely compromised.
I'VE must fight against common dan
ger aud arm ourselves. Just as the Six
teenth and Seventeenth centuries were alb
sorbed by religious wars, just as the Eigh-
teenfIh century was marked by the triumph
OF liberal ideas, and Just as the Nineteen h
century presents great questions of nation
atty, so will the Twentieth century be
marked by struggle for existence in the
political commercial spheres. European
nations must close ranks in order to defend
their existence. May this be realized every
where, and may the epoch OF peace we now
confidently anticipate be employed in col
leoting our strength and devotlng our SER
/ vices chiefly to this ond."

dispatches sent to his paper.
No trouble was experienced in secur-
ing a jury and the government pre-
scented its case.
The testimony presented was largely
the same as that given at previous
trials. The government at 2 o'clock
rested its case and then Judge Often

to dismiss on six grounds, one CT them
being that as newspaper man the
communication to Shriver came within
