matter of building an extreme racer but
he added:
I'VE take a different stand We like
such vessels and build hardly anything

world. the coast of Sweden. but sixty
footers are practically the largest craft
that may be used to advantage in our

in official quarters as to the condition and
whereabouts Of Gen. Bell, who was prac-

POST SYSTEM
ADVOCATED BY Won MEYER
IN BOSTON ADDRESS.
Special Dispatch to Tho Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BOSTON, October 12.-If the recon-
mendations which are to be made by
Postmaster General Meyer are adopted
by Congress the immediate future will
bring some remarkable changes in postal
facilities in the United States. An out
line Of some of the most important recon-
mendations to be made before the next
session of Congress was given by MIR.
Meyer in an address at the postmasters'
convention here today. These include the
further development of the parcels post
system to an extent far beyond its pres
ent limitations. the establishment Of pos
tai savings banks. the issuance of postal
notes in denominations ranging from 1
cent to $3.50. and the installation through
out the country of automatic stamp
vending machines. The recommendation
as to the stamp-vending machines, how
ever. will depend upon the success Of ex-
periments now being made with a device
OF this kind.
Additional Facilities.
Probably the most important and dras-
tic Of any OF the recommendations which
the Postmaster General proposes to make
will be that regarding the extension OF
parcels posts. Not only will he recon-
mend that the system as at present es-
tablished be greatly increased in efficiency.
but that the maximum rate for all par
GELS be reduced from 10 to II cents per
pound; that the limit Of weight for such
parcels be increased from four to eleven
pounds: that local parcels posts equipped
with wagons or automobiles be estab-
HQAAd In cities wharQ the free delivery
system prevails. and that special parcels
post system with an extremely low
charge for service be established in con-
nection with the rural free delivery.

VIENNA, October 12.-The condition of
Emperor Francis Joseph took a turn for
the worse at noon today, and at hate
hour tonight the symptoms Of inflamma-
ton of the lungs had increased. Taken
as a whole, the day cannot be said to
have been one Of progress. although the
physicians who examined his majesty at
10 o'clock tonight declared that the
fever had abated and that the condition
Of the patient was unchanged. At IL
o'clock tonight his majesty was quiet and

All sorts Of reports regarding the en-

excitement among the people. In some
quarters 1t Is stated that his majesty Is
suffering from Inflammation of the left
lung only.
The physicians in attedance, as well as
the members of mis- majesty's encourage,
are endeavoring vainly to calm the public
nervousness by assurances that the life
of Francis Joseph is not seriously threat
ened 1t Is known. however. that since
shortly after noon today a physician has
been continuously in his majesty's room
endeavoring to ease the pain caused by
the severe coughing.

The condition of the patient early to-
night was not so satisfactory as it had
but it had abated by the time Of the last
examination. The patient Is generally
weaker than he was yesterday. He asked
today to be permitted to go to bed, but
his physicians advised him it would be
much better if he remained seated in his
arm chair. AS his heart action is good
and he Is able to take sufficient nourisl-

better Will occur soon. yet so long as the

KAISER'S AMBITION.
Bugaboo Story From London That
He Would Like to Annex Austria.

Special Cabegram to The Star
LONDON, October 12.-No individual
human life is of greater Importance to
Europe than that of King and Emperor
Francis Joseph Hence the reports of his
illness have been received not only with
keen personal sympathy, but with grave
political apprehension in all the capitals
of the old world. All the official accounts
of his condition thus far have been opti-
mistic but this in no wise mitigates the
prevailing uneaSineSs. IndiSposition in a
man OF his age, which necessitates the
canoeing of visit to the King and
queen OF Spain because he cannot travel,
Is serious matter especially when 1t Is
admitted that his health for nearly
year past has been unsatisfactory
1t Is peculiarly unhappy that the pres
ent breakdown should occur almost on
the eve of the celebration Of the sixtieth
anniversary Of his long reign. 1t had
been confidently hoped that the occasion
would really complete the reconciliation
OF the conflicting interests of the two
Kingdoms. and that the danger of a rup-
ture would finally disappear. Much has
been accomplished in this direction during
the past year, and there are many in both
Austria and Hungary who believe that
the crisis of the emperor's death could
even now be passed without q disruption
OF the dual monarchy and without that
generally European peril which most
statesmen have regarded as inevitable for
many years past.
Personality Of Ferdinand.
The difference between the situation now
and year or two ago may be expressed
in saying that the trouble then would have
been spontaneous and unavoidable while
now trouble might be avoided unless EN-
peror William desired 1t. Ever since he
came to the throne the kaiser has been
credited In most diplomatic quarters with
the intention to seize the opportunity of
Francis Josephs death to extend the ex-
German empire in Europe.
The practical question which would arise
is simply this: Would the European league
of peace which King Edward has 30 skill
fully called into being during the past
three years, be strong enough to restrain
the kaiser's ambition? The danger of do
mestic ferment In the two kingdoms would
still be great. This is due partly to racial
causes and partly to the unpopularity of
Prince Ferdinand. The heir to the throne
is not popular even in Austria, while the
Hungarians have openly declared for
many years that they would never ac-
cept him as king. This prejudice Is
largely personal, and there Is no reason
to believe that 1t has Iessened somewhat
of late.
1t was just such an emergency as that
which now threatens that the statesmen
of Europe. except Germany, had in mind
to prepare for when they co-operated with
King Edward in the readjustment of the
general political situation. They still be-
Iieve In the truth of Palatsky's famous
saying. IF Austria hadn't existed 1t would
have been necessary to invent her for the
good of Europe
