EMPEROR ENDS HIS
65TH YR. ON THRONE
Subjects of Austria Pay Notable
Tribute to Francis Josef

Vienna, Dec. loved and revered
by the people of his polyglot dual mon.
archy, Emperor Francis Josef today
completed the sixty-nfth year of his
reign. Every where throughout the
monarchy the anniversary Of the en-
peror's succession To the throne was
observed by his loyal subjects With
ont regard of race, rank or conditions:
not b"isterously and with any great
public display. but with genuine sem
timonts OF love ana with the fervent
hope that the empcror's life may be
spared for many years To come. Re
ligious anniversary services were held
!l all the churches and although there
were no great public demonstrations
ANA festivities. even in the imperial
capital, the day was universally re-
membered and was made the occasion
for many demonstrations of popular
devotion to the emperor.
Francis JOSEF was not always the
Idol of his people When he succeeded
To the throne on Dee. ., 1S4S. after
lN.
his popularity was by no means be-
yond doubt But the young ruler hav-
ing r"-establshed peace by diplomacy

all his energies to the hetterment Of
conditions in all parts Of the mon
archy ana by his iuvariable Justice.

gradually won their respect ana love
and became the most beloved Of all
European rulers.
Dread Death OF Emperor.
II is not love for their venerable
monarch alone which inspires loyal
Austrians TO pray for the prolonga-
tons Of the emperors life, but the
dread of the uncertainties of the ftl-
ture IL the emperor should die. II is
fully realized that the most serious
complications are in store for the dual
monarchy in that case Under the Sa-
lie law, by which the succession TO the
throne Of Austria is governed, the sue
cession follows i'm the male line Of the
Hapsburg family. When Crown Prince
Rudolf. the emperors only son, met
his death in "A mysterious manner in
1899, the succession To the throne de-
volved upon the Archduke Karl Lud-
wig. younger brother of the emperor

est son, Archduke Francis Ferdinand.
born i'm 1868. became the heir-presump-
tive to the Austrial throne.
Archduke Francis Ferdinand has
never been popular i'm Austria. He is
strongly identified with the ultramon-
tame or church party, is reputed 10 he
a reactionary, has no regard or con-
sidcration for the people who will
some day be his subjects and con-
siders them too far beneath him to
deserve recognition. lie is also known
10 be "a slavophil, another reason for
the German speaking Austrians To dis
like him. Under the so-called Prag-
matte Sanction the crown of Hungary

Of the throne Of Austria. BY virtue

Francis Ferdinand would. thanks TO
his succession to the Austrian throne

NJ. & ST. |. MEETS RATES.
Aitho Not Affected by New Law Will
| Meet Competitive Point Rates.

Attic not affected by the new law
creating a 2-cent passenger rate and
reduced freight rates, owing to the de-
cision that the reduction would be
contiscatory, the Minneapolis & St.
Louis has announced its intention OF
meeting the rates of other lines to
competitive points.
The Minneapolis Journal Of Tuesday
says concerning the situation:
The Minneapolis & st. Louis today
quoted rates meeting those of other
roads at competitive points. but as the
company is exempted from obligation
to obey the state laws that have been
in controversy, it does not make the .
cent rate to strictly local points. Rates
to local points are reduced, however, SO
that in no case they will be higher
than to a competitive point farther on.
For instance, the Albert Lea rate is
Rock Island competition. The $2.04
cent rate is 'blanketed' back to the sta
tons of Manchester. Hartland, New
Richland and Otisco, while Waseca,
which had 1927 rate, is reduced to
SlS7 because of the Northwestern's
competition. The Montgomery rate is
fSQuCeQ. TO Sl.uS BECAUSE u .A1lWd uhSS
competition. and New Prague, this side
of Montgomery. also gets the $1.0s
rate. The Minneapolis & st. Louis
meets Northwestern competition to
New Ulm with a reduction from $2.63
TO s2ls. and Omaha competition to
ST. James is met by cut from 1886
TO s2.3s.
The Minneapolis & ST Louis will
not ask for any modification of the
injunction which restraints 1t from
obeying the state laws, but will con-
slider itself free to reduce its rates to
meet competition. That was the po
sition announced today by w. H.
Bremner, counsel for the road. He at
tended the hearing in federal court
today but did not take part. We take
ii that the injunction does not pro-
hibit US from carrying on our business
In the usual way said Mr.. Brem-
ner, and does not prevent US fror,
meeting competition. 1t merely relieves
our company and enjoins US from pay
ing any attention to the state rate
schedules. holding that as to our road
they are confiscatory.'
