Many questions were discussed; we
exchanged our experiences and passed
resolutions. One of these authorized

garding the amendmendment ard the
benefits to thus be derived This will

former AuStrO- Hungarian minister Of
foreign affairs, Gied here tn aft rnooa
Count Kalnoky, who was born at
LettOWitz, MOraVia, Dec. 10, 1922, was
descended from the Moravian branch
of an 0id Bohemian family He enter
ed the diplomatic service Of Austria in
1850. From 1870 to 1870 he was coun-
cilor Of legation at the Austrian en-
bassy in London. In 1874 he was min
lister at Copenhagen; in 1880 he was
sent as ambassador to st. Petersburg
and in 1881 he was appointed Austro-
Hungarian minister of foreign Affairs,
post he held with distinction until
May 16. 1895, when he was succeeded
by the present AUstro- Hungarian for
eign minister, Count Goluchowski
The cause for his resignation was
found in Count Kalnokys action IN
reference to the denunciation of eccle-
siastical laws by the papal nuncio at
Vienna Mgr. Agl ardi, who was charg-
ed by Baron Banffy, the Hungarian
prime minister, with having made
statements at Budapest which
amounted to Interference in Hungarian
affairs.
Baron Banffy addressed a nGte to
Count EalrOky informing him that an
III Ter pSllGilOn WIS ABOUT TO be put
forward in the hungarian parliament
concerning the utterancss Of the nuncio
which had appeared in the Hungarian
newspapers ard had never been dis
claimed by their author. Count Kali
nOky replied that the nuncio had dis
played tacucssness, overstepped the
limits prescribed for foreign diploma tic
representatives, and that he deserved
that foreign office note be sent to
the vatican to complain of his con-
duct. He went so far as to sketch
a communication to the vatican, and
the Hungarian premier telegraphed his
approval of it. A few Days after Baron
Banffy SAID in the Hungarian parlia-
ment that the papal nuncio's acts w re
not approved in Vienna.
AS soon as this speech vas reCited to
Count Kelnoky he telegrapted 20 Bud
apest that only part of his letter to
Baron Banffy was for public knowI-
edge; that the rest was confidential,
and that the protest to the vatican
had rot been sent. Efforts were made
to reconcile the two ministers. hut
these were unavai ing. The Hungarian
house approved Baron Banffy's att
tuda urreservedly, and Count Kalndly
resigned.

European bicycle manufacturers are hav-
ing trouble trying to keep up with the Amer
ican-made machine. The American bicycles
are winning their way in Europe by their
lightness, superior finish and great durabil-
ity. Not alone is this the general verdict
contained in all advices from Great Britain
but also in Germany the American wheel has
become so popular tina it finds a ready market
in spite of the higher cost The jealousy of
the German manufacturer is asserted by their
exertions TO have the tariff duty on American
wheels increased to prohibitory point.
