Will no Longer Observe the Berlin
Treaty Which the Other Pow
ers Are Openly vio-
latins.

VIENNA, Oct. 6.-In order to get
the military forces In better shape
and allay the fears Of the Hungarians
who oppose the annexation of Bosnia
and Herzegovina Emperor Franz Josef
today decided to delay the annexation
proclamation. The announcement OF
the proclamation was expected today
but after a long conference with adj
visers it was decided not to act for a
few days. Servia and Roumania, in
cluded in the proposed Balkan fedora
tion, are today mobilizing their ar
mics under the impression that Aus
tria will endeavor to force them into
a federation under Bulgaria's control.
1t is understood the annexation proc
lamation will endeavor to technically
avoid breach of the Berlin treaty by
using the word incorporated instead
of annexed. An official note received
by the emperor today informs him the
czar is decidedly displeased with the
developments of the past twenty-four
hours and Russia will no longer OBJ
serve the treaty of Berlin which the
other powers are openly violating.
The note is believed to be an indica-
ton of continental muddle. While
the czar gives no idea of the move
the government will make he indicates
Russia will ask the share of the ap
portionment of the Balkan states.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 6.-Minne-
sofa with its eleven electoral votes will
be found in the Taft column the morn
ing after election day. Should it be
otherwise, the most surprised people
in the country would be the Minnesota
Democrats themselves. They have no
real hope of carrying the state for
Bryan and they admit it when not talk
ing for publication. A few of the ul-
ira enthusiastic Bryan men go about
predicting that the waves of Democ-
racy will roll over the commonwealth
Nov. 8, but the most sagacious poll
ticians among the Bryan supporters
do not even predict that Taft will lose
the state.

is Discussed.

The directors of the National league
declared the disputed Cubs-Giant's
game a tie. 1t must be replayed at
the Polo grounds If New York desires.
CINCINNATI, Oct 6.-The direc-
tors met at 130 this afternoon. Chi
cago demanded the forfeiture be set
aside. The New York club is TO be
the sole Judge whether the game is to
be played.
If the Giants lose one game to Bos-
ton and elect to play the disputed
game and wins the Cubs and Giants
and Pittsburg will be tied for first
place. Then series of nine games
will be played, three between each of
the paid teams. Never before has
there been such a tangle in the
championship fight in either league.
The directors were led to rule New
York had right to demand the re-
playing by the fact that Murphy by
claiming the forfeited game made the
replaying then impossible since the
league rules gave five days to answer

sion allows the Giants to lose on of the
two remaining games with Boston and
still become the champions. If she
wins two games she will tie with the
