PRESSURE ON TURKEY WEAK
Germany and Italy VIII Not Permit
Austria 10 Gain Any Advantage
by Movement.

VIENNA. Nov. l7.-Speaking of the naval
demonstration against Turkey. which
combined feet OF the powers will make in
the event of the Sultans continued refusal
to accept the utimatum of the powers on
Macedonian reforms prominent diplomat
said to the Associated Press today:
''Thc giving to an Austrian admiral (Ad-
miral Ritter Won Jedina) the command Of
the combined fleet is a dangerous honor
because Austria is being jealousy watched
by the powers. who will not permit il to
reap of the benefits aud nobody doubts
that 1t is the ultimate intention of the pow
crs to secure material advantages at the
expense of Turkey.
Germany would never for an instant
permit Austrian ACKNOWLEDGMENT because
Italy I'm retaliation would take steps lead
ing to the breaking up of the triple alliance
and without the triple alliance Germany
would be practically isolated in Europe.
Germany and Italy are willing for Austria
to bear the onus of the action against Tur-
key, but they are unanimous in the deter
mination that it shall reap no reward,
while Great Britain would gladly look upon
any action tending 20 weaken the triple
alliance Turkey undoubtedly fully real

COUNT OF FLANDERS is DEAD
Heir to the Belgian Throne Dies of
Inflammation of RespirR-
tory Organs.

BRUSSELS. Nov. 1.-THE count of Flan-
ders, brother Of King Leopold and heir to
the throne, died at 1880 o'clock this morn
ing. Death was due to Inflammation of the
respiratory organs. The count was born in
1881
The new heir to the throne of Belgium
is Prince Albert of Flanders. only son of
the late count of Flanders.
Prince Albert was born April s. 1875 and
was welded October ?, 1900 to the Princess
Elizabeth of Bavaria They have two
children, Prince Leopold. born November
3, 1901 and Prince Charles, born October
10, 1903. Prince Albert is one of the most
popular members of the reigning house
of Belgium. He is OF a studious disposition
and bears striking resemblance to his
uncle, King Leopold. Prince Albert has
travelled extensively. His wife is also
very popular with the Belgians.
1t is possible that the Belgian socialists
will cause trouble when it is proposed to
transfer to Prince Albert the present annual
grant of $4,000 paid to the count of Flan-
ders as heir apparent. When the late count
proposed some time ago to renounce his
succession in favor of Prince Albert, the
socialists, who have always denounced the
count for accepting this grant in view OF the
fact that he was enormously rich, an
Eounced their intention of opposing in the
strongest manner the transfer of the grant.

STEAMSHIP FIGHT IN GERMANY
Contest for ocean Supremacy Between
Hamburg aud Bremen WAKES
Hotter Day by Day.


HAMBURG. Nov 1.-THE fight between
Hamburg and Bremen for ocean supremacy
is waxing hotter day by day. Representa-
tives of the leading Hamburg shipping
companies met today and organized what is
termed a protective league, which Is eX-
prcssly aimed at Bremen as a retaliatOry
measure in view Of the organization OF the
Roland line. At The same time It was de-
cided to establish an entirely new steam
ship company to compete with Bremen in
terests and ply to American ports. II is
projected to start with ten steamers rang
Ing from 1900 to 1C,Oo0 tons.
Herr Balin, director of the Hamburg
American line. has assumed. Professionally
the chairmanship Of the new concern, until
a definite organization is effected.
The Hamburg American line has Issued a
statement aimed to prove that the North
German Lloyd line is behind the Roland
line undertaking.
The protective league intends to increase
It's fleet yearly by three steamers, which
will be used principally in the interests of
all the league members at reduced rates
against competition, while they will carry
cargoes for outsiders at the usual rates.
The capital for these steamers has already
been subscribed.
The Bremen shipping interests deny the
charge that the agents of the North Ger
man Lloyd company are also acting as
agents for the Roland line and that the
organization Of the Roland line is directed
against the shipping interests of Hamburg.

NEBRASKA'S YIELD OF CORN
Crop Of 1908 Far Above the Record
Established for the Ten-Year
Average.

Last week the Associated Press dis
patches brought from Washington the re-
port OF the Department on Agriculture on
the corn crop for the current year, In
this Nebraska WAS credited with a yield
per aote- Of S2-S bushels and ten-year
average of 1854 bushels. This last figure is
patiently wrong and an effort was made,
without success, to get II corrected at the
time The printed report of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture for November is now
at hand and brings the corrected figures.
The Nebraska corn yield for 1906 is esti-
mated at 32.s bushels. against tcn-year
average OF 264, which places a much diff
ferent complexion on the condition. This
shows the yield OF corn to be 64 bushels
an acre for 1905 above instead Of 3.6 bush
els below the ten-year average.

HABEAS CORPUS is NOW A MYTH
Former senator Mason Makes This
Startling Statement in Fed
eral Court I'm Chicago.

CHICAGO. Nov. E--Fnrmer United
States Senator Mason In an argument
today before Judge Landis in the United
States district court, made an attack upon
the state judges OF Illinois and the judges
OF the Illinois supreme court while pleading
for the release on a writ of habeas corpus
OF George w. Feltz, now confined in the
state penitentiary on a charge of murder.
Attorney Mason declared that the writ Of
habeas corpus, the foundation Of American
liberty. has become a myth in Illinois, and
he has discovered an agreement among the
judges not to review the findings of one
another. He declared that Judge Landis
was the first judge, with one exception he
had found in one year who would consent
to hear the petition. Feltz, who is deaf, is
seeking his release from life sentence on
the grounds that he was not given the con-
stitutional right of knowing what trans
pired at his trial in Rockford, H., declat-
ing that he did not hear the words of the
accusers or the sentence of the court and
that under the law all the proceedings
should have been written for him or other
wise communicated 10 his understanding.
There is lots OF talk about American
liberty through habeas corpus" said At
-torney Mason. "It Is really only talk,
though, as the cornerstone of American
liberty is hidden so deep one cannot get to
IT, It is a myth in this state. II is almost
impossible to find judge who will hear an
argument on a writ of habeas corpus.
Judge Honore told me there is an agree
ment between the judges not to review de-
cisions in this way. He refused to issue the
writ. The supreme court of this state even
refused 20 allow me to file my petition. Not
