The WILL OF THE EMPRESS The
Vienna correspondent of the London
Daily Mail says that the empress made
her will in June, remarking at the time
that "one never knows what will hap
pen"
She left immense sums for charitable
purposes, including, it is said, her per-
soual jewelry, which is valued at 81
100000. She had the richest collection
OF jewelry in the world, most of it being
gifts from her husband. This collec-
ton does not include the State jewels,
which will descend to the next
empress.
The death of the empress has caused
a serious industrial crisis in Austria.
Thousands Upon thousands of dol
lars that would have been expend-
ed with tradesmen in preparation for
the emperor's jubilee, will all be lost
Business is paraIyzed and likely to
remain depressed for months.
