WAR CLOUD is SEEN
ITALY AND AUSTRIA HURRY
TROOPS TO BOUNDARY.
Movement to Regain Possession OF
Trieste Assumes Sudden
Force.

London.-Austria and Italy are hur-
rying troops and guns to the frontier
that separate them. The military
movement is being executed quietly,
but both governments are animated by
a spirit which BODIES trouble.
The irredentist agitation In Italy
to regain possession of Trieste, on the
coast, and Trent, in the Tyrol, from
Austria, has assumed sudden force
and activity.
The question is asked again
whether the triple alliance can stand
the strain to which it Is being sub
jected. Indeed, international condi-
tons in Europe seem full Of grave
portents at the moment
Italian feeling resents the decisions
of both Emperor William and En-
peror Francis Joseph not to visit their
ally, King Victor Emmanuel, during
the celebration of the jubilee Of Italy's
unification. That the two monarchs
will absent themselves is regarded as
only another sign of the Indifference
to Italian sentiment which Austria
and Germany have displayed recently.
The crown prince Of Germany will
represent his father in Rome, while
the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the
Austrian heir apparent refuses to go
further than Turin toward Rome.
This Difference paid by Austria to
the prisoner Of the Vatican" offends
Italy. Headed by Mayor Nathan, the
Roman municipality has retorted by
naming a street after Herdunk, the ir-
redentist fanatic who tried to as
sassinate Emperor Francis Joseph in
1882, move thas certainly will not
pour balm unon existing wounds.

A woman surgeon is attached to the
Williamsburg hospital in New York
city, having been appointed because
she surpassed all male contestants in
a competitive examination. She had
been an ambulance surgeon only a
few hours when she had her first case.
1t was cold and raw, and the expert
ence was anything but agreeable, but
the lady doctor was equal to the emer-
gency and took excellent care of the
patient. And she says she has learned
jiu-jitsu and is not afraid of "drunks"
and D. t. victims. That energetic lady
appears to be abundantly able to ac-
complish what she wishes without go
ing into the suffragette business.

The Newfoundland government has
refused permission to American fish
ermen to buy herring for the purpose
of filling contracts. The request was
made because of a poor season which
prevented the Americans from obtain
ing what they wanted in the waters
accessible to them under the terms of
The Hague decision. Newfoundland
is within it's rights in taking such
stand. Still, 1t is not indicative of the
best or most neighborly temper, and
the action seems to show that the re
suit of the fisheries arbitration has
not been accepted in the proper frame
of mind.
