Cettinje, April 1.-THE little king
dom of Montenegro has thrown down
the gauntlet to the six great powers:
She declines to yield to the demand OF
the powers to abandon her attempts
to gain possession of Scutari. and has
officially announced that there will
be no departure from an attitude
which conforms to the necessities OF
the state Of war existing between the
allies and Turkey"
An International fleet, comprising
warships of Austria Hungary, Italy.
France, Germany and Great Britain,

ers Yarmouth, InfleSible and Glouces-
ter: the Germany cruiser Breslau. the
Italian cruiser Pisa and the French
cruiser Edgar Quinet. Russia is not
represented by warship. but has ac-
queisced in the naval demonstration.
The British admiral has sent the
following message to the Montenegrin
premier. DR.. l.. Tomanovics:
IT have the honor to inform you
that the international fleet is assem-
bled in Montenegrin waters as pro-
test against the non-fulfillment of the
wishes of the great powers. I desire
to call your excellency's attention to
the presence of the fleet as proof that
the great powers are acting in con-
cert, and request that their wishes be
fulfilled without further delay. Please
inform me Immediately that your gov
ernment is ready to carry out the
wishes of the great powers.
To this the Montenegrin premier re-
Piled in a note expressing regret at
the presence of the fleet, which he
considered violation of the neutral
ity proclaimed by the powers at the
beginning of the war. and to the det-
riment of Montenegro. The premier
continued:
Despite the pressure which the
presence of the fleet implies, there
will be no departure from an attitude
which conforms to the necessities of
the state of war existing between the
allies and Turkey"
a brigade of Austrian troops from
Gattaro has been maneuvering near
the Montenegrin boundary. The Gus
tomary note has not been given the
Montenegrin government and Aus
tria's action is considered unfriendly
and menacing.

Conference Follows.
Following the dinner and speech
making there will be conference of
the railroad officials and the railroad
committee of the club. In this con-
ference many questions particularly
interesting to the people of Grand
Forks and the entire Grand Forks
district will be considered, there be-
ing such questions as freight and
passenger service. prospective new
rail connections in this state and nor
thern Minnesota. as well as others.
Grand Forks Prospects Big.
For some time there has been d
eeneral consideration of. the question
Of the possible effect on Grand Forks
Of the construction of the new line
through the central section Of the
state.
There are numerous features that
will Offset any possible effect that line
may have. 1t is expected, of course,
that one or the other of the through
coast trains will operate over the line,
but there is an immense territory
along the present main line, from Mi
not to Grand Forks, and from Grand
Forks south, both in North Dakota
and Minnesota, that will demand
through service, and Grand Forks will
be line for continued coast service.
Possible Duluth Service.
Another feature is the possibility Of
service from Duluth to the coast. The
Duluth Commercial club has been en-
gagged for some time in an effort to
secure such accommodations. and 1t
is more than likely that they will be
fraught with success. Grand Forks,
of course, would be directly in line
should any such service be esta ablished.
