VIENNA, July Especial TO The Bee.)-
1t is stated in court and diplomatic cir
Giles, under the rose Of course, that only
the Influence of the archduchesses pre-
vents the formal announcement Of the
Archduke Francis Ferdinand as regent
The heir apparent is determined that bis
morganAtic wife shall be advanced to a
place which shall give her precedence as
the consort of the heir TO the throne and
no doubt is felt that should he be vested
with power this would be one of his first
acts. The archduchesses are equally de-
termined that If this cannot be prevented
the evil day when they must yield pre-
cedence shall be put of as far as possible.
This war of women prevents the formal
REIMBURSEMENT of the reins Of government
by the aged. broken emperor.
1t would surprise no one If Franz Ferdi-
nand, on his accession to the throne. should
rescind the act of remuneration which bars
his wife from becoming his empress and
his children from succession TO the throne
What the effect OF such an act would be
1t is impossible 10 say. II the high mobiles
were strong enough it would bar him
from the throne. but IL h by no means
Impossible that II would give the arehduke
HungariAns, which he has never possessed.
and would really secure his dual union
TO him
Hungarians Poor Losers.
The HungRrians are showing that they
are not behind the American base ball
fans, in some particulars at least.
The defeat OF three Hungarian foot ball
teams. in three successive days by the
Blackburn ROvers in Budapest culminat-
ing with a complete rout of a picked
team Of the Ferenczvarose lorna club, in
the presence Of 1900 spectators caused
great dissatisfaction. At the conclusion OF
demonstration against the English team
abused them with choice Hungarian cpl
thets, and then stoned them
The Englishmen stepped into waiting
Carriages. and the crowd followed and
smashed the windows Of the vehicles &c
atoms Several of the Englishmen were
slightly injured by the stones Finally
mounted police arrived on the scene and
drove the mob back. The Hungarian news
papers stated that the Englishmen played
quite fairly. but thai the HungariAns had
not the slightest show from the first, owins
TO the superior weight and wonderful COM
binAtion Of the visitors.
Johann ORTIZ Estate Settled.
The estate OF Johann Ortiz" the wan
dertng and mysterious Archduke, has a.
nAliy been settled. He left no properly
attested will dealing with the bulk OF hiS
property. His last dispositions had only

Therefore. according 10 the law Of Aus
tina and the dynasty. his legal heirs-ths
princess OF the Tuscan branches and Ger.
tain of the Austrian branches-wiH in.
herit his property. The legacies referred
10 were In favor Of the dead archduke'u
mother and Milly stubel. who is dead
and thereby hangs a tale. Son Of Leo
pold II. grand duke OF Tuscany, the arch.
duke, disappeared twenty years ago after
ouArreiing with the Emperor Francis
Joseph, owing to his too candid criticism
OF the Austrian army. his aspirations &c
the throne Of Bulgaria and his projected
marriage 10 Milly stubel. a Vienness
