TROUBLE IN THE BALKANS.
War Cloud Lowering in That Part OF
the World.

In his estimates for the annual
budget of the AustrO-Hun garian en-
pire, Count Goluchowski proposes the
expenditure of many extra million dol
lars on the army and navy. Until
this startling demand for an increase
was made everybody supposed that
Austria saw nothing ahead of her
which might disturb her peace, but
Immediately upon the submission OF
GOluchOWSki estimates European
politicians began to wonder for what
trouble Austria was looking. BY
process Of elimination they finally az.
rived at the conclusion that Austria
must hav" designs on the Balkans.
The Austria Russia plan of reform
for the Balkans has failed Russia
is sufficiently engaged in the far east
to keep her hands tied. Austria feels
that it is a propitious moment to go
ahead to SalOnica.
But Italy objects to Austria touch
ing any part of Albania on the east
:oast of the Asiatic. Italy herself
feels that she has reversionary inter.
ASts there. If Austria started to re-
form" Albania, Italy would interfere.
Hence both Italy and Austria are now
arming. and the annual Balkan war
loud has begun to lower.

where directed. 1t fell. instead. upon
thousands of union workmen in the
hills who. although engaged for the
eight hour day, were ordered to cease
work in those mines that supplied the
offending smeters with ores. Inc
result in many camps was walk
out.
The succeeding result was an at
tempt on the part OF the owners 10
reopen their mines with nonun!on
labor. In the part that labor and poll
tics play in Colorado. the admins
tration of civil duties falls. in many
mining cities and towns. upon au-
thorities who are out of sympathy
with nonunion methods. Thus the
owners of mines were harassed IN
many ways. There were mysterious
disappearances People unSympa-
thetic with the cause Of the strikers
we're driven from communities. Final,
~, mine buildings were blown up
with dynamite, and mine workings
destroyed.
In this crisis the mine owners APP
pealed to the governor Of Colorado
for protection. The situation was
strained at three pOints-ln Teller
county. where are the mining camps
of Victor and Cripple Creek; at Tellu-
ride in San Miguel county. and at
Idaho Springs in Clear Creek county.
In the last place union worHmen sus-
pected of blowing up the Sun and
Moon mine property were driven
from town by the citizens OF the
place. This drastic action is worth
noting for. as a result OF the high
state Of feeling in Colorado, it was
upheld in the popular opinion. At
all events. troops were no. needed
at Idaho Springs.
Gov. Peabody declared martial law
IN Teier %M& San MISV>i SoNMt><S
early in December. Some Of the mil
itary proceedings in each of these
counties appear to have been extreme
but Gov. Peabody has declared that
no defense of his actions is needed.

Chinese Belief in Pills.
'hOugh the Dill habit is said

Though the pin habit is said by
medical journals to cOuse more dys-
pepsia than it cures, it has at any
rate the sanction OF antiquity. In an
article which DR.. II. l.. Norris. a Brit
ish naval surgeon on the china sta
ton. contributes to one ct the medical
journals. he remarks that doses in the
Chinese pharmacopoeia are invariably
large and the pills are taken by the
hundreds. The Chinese. he adds. pos.
sess an enormous generation for an
tiquity. and besides powdered deer's

some cases these leaders were depOrt-
ed. State courts were aoppealcd to
by members of the union who felt
the power of he military law. but
the rulings of these courts had no
effect on the representatives of the
state government. lnjunctons were
merely ignored. The governor con-
tended for these points:
I. That he had sole power to deter
mine when a state of .nsurrection eX-
listed in any county in the state.
. That the courts had no power to
interfere with his exercise of this pre-
rOgative.
g. That he had the right to use the
state military forces to suppress IN
surrection.
d. That he had the power to de-
tain military prisoners for so long
as he saw fl.
6. That the state courts could not
interfere with military prisoners.
Hence. that they had Il" power to dis
charge military prisoners.
A test case was made when Charles
II. Meyer. president of the Western
Federation of Miners. was arrested at
Telluride by the military authorities.
The Judge of district court ordered
his release. No attention was paid to
the order. Application to the state
Supreme court for a writ of habeas
corpus was made. The Supreme
court has just declared that the gov,
