Celebrations Throughout Austria and
Hungary I'm Honor of the Be-
loved Old Monarch.
ADDRESS BY THE EMPEROR
THANKING THE ARMY FOR IT'S 10y
Atty TO THE ROYAL CAUSE.
Examinations in All the Cities of the
Empire-Speech by a Noted
English Liberal.

VIENNA, Dec. 2.-Etnperor Francis
Joseph to-day, on the fiftieth anniversary
Of his accession to the throne, issued a gem
eral order to the army thanking the soldiers
for their loyalty and fearless valor through
out his reign and declaring that he will ever
look upon the army as the shield and pro-
tector of the throne and fatherland. Am
nesty has been granted to political Offend
ers in Hungary and a number of decora-
tions have been gazetted. All the newspa-
pers, without distinction as to politics, pub
lish articles eXtolling the Austrian Emperor
as the guardian of European peace.
The day was ushered in with the booming
of cannon and grand reveille sounded by
the bugles of all the regiments of the garri-
son. The city was gayly decorated with
flags and the streets were thronged with
people wearing black and yellow or red and
white favors and jubilee medals. The arch
dukes attended special thanksgiving serv-
ice in the garrison church. The distribution
of jubilee medals to the troops followed.
Services were also celebrated in other
churches, commemorative meetings were
held in the university schools and there
was much rejoicing throughout the prov
inces.
The Nominations tonight are superb They
extend into the remotest suburbs of Vienna,
every window in every private house being
lighted. The effects at the Rathaus and the
Concentration Church are grand The
Emperor's bust or portrait everywhere fig
ures alone, and not as formerly, side by
side with that of the Empress Elizabeth.
This gives a note of sadness, which is
heightened by the decorum of demonstra-
lions usually noisy. Huge crowds are par
aiding the streets, but there IS no shouting
and very little cheering, the populace indi-
eating it's sympathy with the Emperor s
bereavement.
Reports from all provincial towns of Aus
tria show that the jubilee has been faith
fully observed, which is also the case
throughout Hungary, where the day was
celebrated as a general holiday, with fetes,
professions and illuminationS this evening.
Emperor Francis Joseph has received con-
gratulatory kilograms from most of the
crowned heads, and at all the European
capitals the jubilee has been celebrated by
ambasSadorial functions.

in Porto Rico and the Philippines have been
marked and these remains viii be brought home
soon as tie plans are completed.
In connection with his discussion OF affairs in
the quartermaster'S department the secretary
prints an elaborate table showing in detail each
ship purchased or chartered for transport or sup
ply work. the name Of the individual
of time covered by tine charters, the rate
of charter per day and the tonnage From
vessel in proportion to capacity was the shin
necock owned by the Montauk Steamboat Com
pany, which hired at the rate of $1,000 per
dav The big ocean liners of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company Newport. Peru, Rio Janiero'
were chartered at the same rate. but they were
of three times the capacity The most expensive
of the vessels purchased were what were known
as the Baker boats, of the Minnehaska class,
which were purchased at $3.50. coo each
In the subsistence department the secretary
finds an urgent need for regimental commits
sary and also for a commissa1y sergeant for each
Discussing the surgeon generals report. he says
It was a mistake to detail reg1nental surgeons
TO large hospitals. but this could not have been
avoided and division and general hospitals which
were Indispensable maintained. Ample provision
should be made to supply the places of surgeons
who fall sick. One of the great mercles Of the
says that until one has had experience or made
careful observation be cannot realize the work
that these noble women did for our sick soldiers
in the hospitals; but they cannot be well employed
at regimental hospitals in a campaign. Both the
necessary, in the opinion of the secretary, but
the general hospital should be provided separate
wards for each regiment so that comrades could
be kept together.
The secretary says the Red Cross and other
relief associations contributed In very large
degree to the and comforts of our sick sol
diers and should receive the grateful thanks of
the Nation.
The secretary calls attention to Surgeon General
Sternberg's circular OF instructions to the army,
issued April 20. and says had 1t been strictly fol-
lowed less sickness would have resulted.
He feels that force of practical engineers,
skilled in electricity should be provided and that
q large number of engineers should be educated at
West Point. that officer be placed
permanently with each river and harbor project.
These projects should also receive the recon-
mendation OF a board of skilled engineers before
appropriations made for them.
The manufacture of the -Jorgensen, a
similar magazine gun. should continue until we
have at an early date at least 500, 600 of these
munition.
The entire report OF the secretary of war forms
one OF the most voluminous documents of the
kind ever issued from the War Department.
