HuNGARiANs AssAlL KING.
Wrath of Nation InfIamed by Speeches
A gainst Ruler.

Special dispatches from Buda- pesth
indicate that the excitement consequent
on the strained relations between the
crown and the united opposition in the
Hungarian diet is increasing and that.
while the leaders OF the coalition parties
are counselns the people TO refrain from
violating the law, inhammatory speeches
are being made by prominent persons in
various sections of the country and that.
probably for the first time the personal
popularity of the king-emperor is being
assailed.
At the meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the coalition parties at Buda-
Pesth. according to the dispatches, sew
cral sharp speeches We're made and the
conviction was expressed that a peace
able settlement was impossible, though
there was no reference to other than
legal fight over the differences between
the two parts of the mpire.
1t is stated that the coalition leaders
proposed to Count Cziraky, at the con
ference in Vienna Sunday. compromise
of the difficulties arising from the ques-
ton of language to be used in the army
in Hungary by the Introduction of Hun
husSar regiments only. 1t is understood
that this proposition was carried TO his
majesty, whose failure TO reply indicates
that his ultimatum is interchangeable.
Even should the present acute crisis in
Austria- Hungary be tided over the sit
nation in the dual monarchy promises TO
be such as to give the world serious
concern for some time TO come. 1t seems
improbable that the Hungarians can be
induced to reeede from the demands they
have made for changes in the admins
tTation of their kingdom. On the other
hand. Emperor Franz Josef's action in
admins; ring a rebuff TO the Hungarian
parliamentary leaders who called upon
him Sunday shows little promise of any
Welding on the Austrian side.
The present clash is the outgrowth of
a movement which has been steadily
gaining Roadway in Hungary and which,
to summarize its salient features broad
ly, is an effort toward a larger measure
of independent national life The integ-

persons alleged to have been implicated
IN the Henderson Mound race riots and
IN minor crimes, together with all the
county tax books and drainage papers,

TO the loft. During the week FIVE of the
men charged with race rioting at Hender-
son Mound were tried and convicted. Sew

RIDES IN WILD BALLOON.

Miles from Star ting Point,

Floyd Wallace, a lG-year-old hoy of
Oneonta. n, Y, had an exciting ride in
a balloon that got away from the One
onta fair grounds at 4 O'Clock the other
afternoon. The boy had gone up in the
balloon. which was being pulled down
IN the regular manner. When it was
about 200 feet from the ground the rope
broke and the balloon and boy rapidly
shot up in the air and soon disappeared
IN the clouds, being rapidly blown toward
the northeast. The balloon owner said
that unless the youth opened the valve
the balloon would not come down for
twenty-four hours. The balloon rose over
two miles high before it disappeared
from view. The boy, however, managed
to get hold of the valve rope and let
out the gas, so that he succeeded in safe
iy etfecting a landing at Summit, thirty
miles from Oneonta, at 5:45 o'clock.
