BOSNIAN MURDER PLOT.


Vienna, July /.
Responsible persons at Serajpgo have
made remarkable statements t. the repre-
sentatiYo4 Of Hungarian jo0ruQls with regard
to the assassination and The alleged conSpJ-
racy. The Archbishop, Dr.. StatIer, Is re
presented as having affirmed thai the CRIME
was a consequence OF historical development,
and that it must have taken place sooner
or later. 1t was no mere chance rat it WAS
carried out ON the day which Is kept as the
anniversary OF the battle Of kos,oyo PoIye.
cit was, IN fact, on the Same day q few
years ago that an attempt was made at Sera-
jevo on the life of GeneraI Nure5auiu} The
town, the Archbishop added, was full III con
spJrators, and il Eriuzip's attempt haa been
unsuccessful it was certain that another OPP
p%ortunity would have been found the same
day TO curry out the murder.
Very similar statements ARE represented
to have been made BY the President Of the
Bosnian Diet, who is alleged to have affirmed
thpt bombs were discovered among the
branches Of trees along the route followed
by the Archduke and the Dache.s. A net,
he 4id, had been woven from which there
was no escape.
While the general tendency is to attempt
to prove to the public tbnt The conspiracy

OF Police at S%el3jpyo is said to have stated
that the examination of the prisoners has

chRIsTMAs BROUGHT NO
 REST FOR EUROPEAN ARMIES
Russians and Germans Fighting Des-
 PerateIy in the Shows of Poland.

London, Dec 25. 11.So D. m.-Christ- mas brought no rest to the ernbattled European armies. It found the Rus sians still fighting desperately in the cnows of Poland against the fierce st- tacks of the German and Austrian al- lies; Przemysl still in the grip of the invading army; tine French making gpasnlodic thrusts against the long German lines of trenches in northern and northeastern France. and the Brit ish and Belgians engaged in almost han6-to-hand warfare against the Ger man trenches in West Belgium.
 Tn Flanders yesterday thinge were generally quiet" says the German bull lstin. The French report speaks of intermittent artillery firing there, The French claim several successes along the center and eastern lines, while the Germans declare they have taken the second British trenches in Belgium. Both sides assert they have repulsed attacks at various points, which indi- cates that the feeling process is under way all along the lines
 So close are the trenches of tth allies and the Germans at many points that almost the only weapons used are hand grenades. since it is impossible for the men to expose even to so small q degree as would be necessary for the use Of their rifles.
 There have been informal truces be- tween the British and the Germans for burial of the dead between the lines. According fo a British eyewitness, for many weeks along miles of the battle line the dead have lain as they fell There are gruegome accounts of bodies held erect by the barbed wires and scouts crawling over them of nights.

CHARITY AND GOOD CHEER 4 ABROAD IN NEW YORK Holiday One of the Most Memorable ir
 CitY's History.

New York, Dec. 25.-Charity and good cheer walked abroad in New York today and made the holiday in many ways one of the most memoras ble In the city's annals. For the one day, at least, the pinch of poverty was relaxed even fin quarters where it. had been most severely felt and virtually the entire city made merry.
 Thousands Fed.
 Scores of thousands of persons were fed by charitable organizations. the Salvation Army and the Volunteers of America alone, according to estimates of distributions. providing 75,00O din- ners for the poor. The missions and other institutions gave Christmas meals to many other thousands.- Pri- vate charity was unusually in evidence despite, the heavy draugE1ts that have been made upon it in the way of con- trfbutfons to the suffering millions of the European war zone.
 Typical Christmas Weather.
 The synchronizins, unusual for this particular town, of Christmas day and what is known te tradition as typical Christmas weather helped to make this years. celebration a notable one. The day outdoors was ideally Christ mas like; indoors, within institutions and within home, the Yuletide spirit prevailed to an unwonted, degree. !
 Municipal Tree Celebrations.
 Municipal Christmas tree celebra- tions. begun on the eve of the hoII- day were continued on the day itself poor children were gathered together.

 The failure to do so for two hor,rs during the daytime exposes the party in default to the penalty provided tv tine ordinances.
 The ordinances also provide that in case of violation of any of the foregoing prOVIS1OnS, or refusal or neg Iect to comply with them, the party violating them or not complying with them shall pay a penalty of five dollars for every four hours of neglect, after notice from any policeman of the city. The ordinances also make it the Gnty of the Street Commissioner to collect all penalties incurred under the foregoing provisions. and if they are n3t paid to him on demand, to report the case to the City Attorney, who shall prosecute the party offending.
