EXPECT EXCITING SESSION
OF HUNGARIAN PARLIMENT

VIENNA, Sept. 15.-Conserva-
tive circles are looking forward
with considerable apprehension to
the action of the Hungarian parlia-
ment which convened at Buda-
Pesth today. For many years the
sentiment in favor of a separation
of Hungary from Austria has been
growing and the separatist faction
among the nationalists has been
gaining in strength to such an ex.
tent that it seems a crisis is immi-
nent.
The imperial government, which
is warmly supported by the Ger
man speaking provinces of the dual
monarchy, has foreseen the i'm
pending crisis and has taken steps
to prevent any attempt on the part
of the Hungarian nationalists to
bring about separation. When the
Hungarian parliament was opened
in July it was feared that the sep
aratists would force the issue by
proposing separation IN open parlia-
ment. To prevent the execution Of
this plan parliament was adjourned
until today on the day of its open
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-09-15

ing. In the meantime the imperial
government has taken precaution-
airy steps to resist, If necessary
with force of arms, any attempt of
the Hungarian separatists to bring
about disruption of the dual mon
archy. Under the supervision of
Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the
heir to the throne, who represents
the aged emperor in the supreme
command of the army, extensive
preparations for a campaign have
been made and now, 1t is said, the
imperial government is fully pre-
pared for any emergency. Notwith.
standing that fact, considerable ap-
prehension is felt in regard to the
probable action of the Hungarian
parliament, the session of which
was opened today. 1t is hoped that
the conservative elements will be
strong enough to prevent violent
scenes and seditious utterances in
open parliament. The opening ses-
sion today was rather turbulent,
but nothing occurred that would
have called for the interference of
the government.

MILTON, Mass, Sept. 15.-Mrs

the fact that she is still actively

ularity since it appeared. Since her

SIX CASES AT NATCHEZ NOW
SUNDAYS RECORD.

New Orleans, Aug. 2S.-The rec
ord for Sunday shows the smallest
number of new cases since August
G and the largest number of deaths
on any day since the fever made its
appearance. The unusual number Of
deaths is attributed in a measure to
the change in the weather, Saturday
night being cool and pleasant,a great
contrast to the weather of the pre-
ceding week. Three well known mer-
chants are among the new cases.
Only two names that can be traced
to Italian origin are among the 81.
OF the deaths, eight are Italians.
The principal news outside of the
city was the announcement from Ma
tchez of the discovery of six cases
there and the attempt to blame New
Orleansc for them. This is regarded
as rather strange in view of the fact
that of all tight guarantees against
New Orleans, Natchez maintained
the tlgntest, not even alloWlhs her
