HUGE BUDGET
CAUSES ALARM
Austro-Hungarian 7 axPayersWor.
ried Over Big Appropriation

Vienna, June 6.-The Austro-H Hun
garian taxpayer has become gravely
alarmed over the fact that the mill
are nearly double the army and navy
expenditures of seven years ago.
From government sources there have
come frequent assertions that rela-
tions with other countries are most
peaceful and amicable. If this be true,
the people are wondering why the
government comes forward with a
military budget which could not be
much greater If the empire was on
the verge of war.
The sum asked by the minister of
war is $1S6,000,0 900. The army wants
$115,OOO,OOO, while the navy will get
along with $36.OO0,OOO. The remain
ing $35O0O,OOO will be spent on the
militia and reserve forces. Seven
years ago the total budget for the
to only $96,OOO,OOO, a sum considerably
less than is now demanded for the
army alone.
Advance Out of Proportions.
The popular protest is that the ad-
vance is utterly out of proportion to
the normal increase i'm the nations f.
nancial and commercial wealth but the
most disquieting feature is that the
present budget contains no eXtraor-
binary items, so there is no reason to
ovnaat tbat naNt warts estimate will
bring any relief.
At the time of the war scares, dur
ing the annexation of Bosnia in 1908.
and during the more recent Balkan
wars, the ministry of war took advan-
tage of the situation to procure every
thing that was needed to bring tho
army up To a high state of efficiency,
and enormous sums were spent on two
notifications. The rate Of spending
then inaugurated seems to have been
kept up. and each succeeding budget
has been larger than the one before.
Immense sums have been put into new
guns, and technical equipment for the
engineers and field forces.
Warship Costs Excessive.
While it is contcnded that the gem
eral increase in the cost of labor and
materials has much to do with the in
creasing budgets, the press has lately
been discussing the influence eXerted
by the ring OF manufacturers of steel
and ornaments.
Since Austria Hungary started 80
build ships of the dreadnought type
three years ago, the taxpayers have
been astonished to find that these are
ships of similar size and power built
by Germany and Great Britain. The
iron and steel and other materials
employed are all considerably dearer
than i'm the other two countries NAM
ed. 1t is charged that the govern
ment is being held up by a ring of
manufacturers. Since ii is the settled
policy of the various government de-
partments not to buy anything outside
the country if it can be obtained i'm
Austria Hungary it has been difficult
to find a remedy for the situation.
Apparently the manufacturers ring
constitutes a very powerful organiza-
ton. The shareholders include many
influential and exalted persons. The
shares in one of the principal ship
building concerns have risen i'm the
past few years from $50 to $3.50, an
increase of 2300 per cent.

Trotter's Second Mistake.

The character of William Trotter. the Boston
negro preacher who headed delegation to ,ae
White House. was quite firmly established in
lis outburst Of insolence, and 1t was no sur
prise that he should lead mass meeting OF
negroes In Washington. at which the name OF
the President was hooted AS matter OF
course the hoots were inspired by the inflam-
matory talk of the leader. The incident fol-
lowing the call at the White House will tend
to the further d.scredit of the spokesman OF
The delegation and will the more firmly es-
tablish the conditions In the departments which
the negroes desired to remedy from their stand
point. Trotter could have devised no better
way of defeating the ends he sought than by
the course of conduct he elected to pursue.
