settlement will be made of the window
glass scale as far as the blowers and gath

that President Burns has made concessions
to the manufacturers, but to what extent

Esterhazy,s Accomplish Confesses.


LONDON, Nov. ia dispatch from Paris
to the Daily Mail says that friends of
Dreyfus assert that Count EsterhaZy was
assisted in his treason by an Alsatian SER
geant major, who is now in Alsace and has
made full confession.
Comte Ferdinand Esterhazy is connected
with the well-known Hungarian family of
Esterhazy, which has figured in Hungarian
history as the mainstay of Austrian des-
potism. 1t was Nicholas Esterhazy, an an
cestor of Ferdinand, who proved such
Jealous tool in the hands of Ferdinand ii,
of the house of Hapsburg, when that mon
arch applied his perfidious scheme for the
abrogation of Hungarian liberties in the
early part of the seventeenth century. Mich
olas Esterhazy went SO far as to maintain
that no promises made by prince to his
people need be regarded as sacred, thus
foreshadowing that sinister figure in Aus
tro-Hungarian statecraft, the infamous
Metternich.
Paul Esterhazy, another member of the
same family, later rendered substantial aid
to Leopold l when the Hungarian people
had once more revolted against Hapsburg
tyranny and duplicity, and it was largely
through Esterhazy's treachery to his coun-
try that the Efforts OF the gallant Tokolyi,
looking to the establishment OF Hungarian
independence of Austrian control, were fruS-
trated. and the unsuccessful patriot died an
exile in ConStantinople
In our own times Prince Paul Esterhazy
formerly Austrian ambassador at the court
of st. James and later royal minister of
foreign affairs, redeemed in some measure
the misdeedS of his ancestors by allying
himself in a conservative degree with the
movement which grew and developed under
the inspiring leadership of Louis Kossuth.
1t is Prince ESterhazy that saves his entire
family from going down into history as
traitors to their country.
Whether Comte Esterhazy is guilty Of the
charges preferred against him or not, trea-
son to his adopted country by a scion Of
precedented development. In any event the
affair promises to end in a serious national
scandal in the French republic, which may
bring about another crisis of some magni-
tude.

What the Porte Has Promised to Do

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 1s.-It was not
until after last midnight that the Austrian

fell, the agent of the Austrian Lloyd
Steamship Company at Mersina, Asia
Minor, respecting the insults offered to the

subject of arrears due the Oriental Railroad
Company, which is operated by Austrians,
for transporting Turkish troops during the
recent war between Turkey and Greece.
Consequently. an indemnity will be paid to
saluted by a Turish fort or war ship and
the sum Of 81, 900 will be paid the Oriental
Railroad Company. The Turkish note to
Austria is conciliatory and lays stress on the
friendly relations existing between the Sui
tan and Emperor Francis Joseph.
