AUSTR|ANS URGING
PEACE, SAYS envoy

Washington, Zee. A dispatch
from a prominent neutral diplomat in
Vienna to his government, Of which
officials here learned, states thai
leading financial and commercial mel
in Austria are urging the making of
peace.
The diplomat IN a cipher telegram
confirms recent press reports from
Rome of the dissatisfaction which the
Austrian populace feels at the lack
of success Of it's army and states,
moreover, that Indignation has been
stirred up among all classes because
of the recent reverses suffered at the
hands of Servia.
The Austrian government, he adds,
through a strict censorship of the
press, has withheld details of these
defeats from an anxious public.
Another phase Of the situation said
to be disquieting to the Austrian gov
eminent is the reports from the Czech
part of Bohemia and Hungary that
sympathy with the war is rapidly di-
diminishing there.

CHURCH RULING IMPORTANT
Supreme Court Holds Majority of Con.
9regation Controls.

Property interests Of the so called
liberal and conservative factions OF
the %lcelandic Lutheran church through
out the United States are affected by
the North Dakota supreme court de-
cision, which holds that the majority
OF the members Of a congregation, no
matter what their faith may be, are
entitled to possession of the church
property.
This case, from Thingvalla, Pembina
county, grew out of a split within the
church over literal acceptance of the
teachings of the Bible. The liberal
faction maintained that it had the
right to accept or reject such por-
tons OF the Bible as it wished, while
the conservative faction maintained
that the Bible must be accepted in
full, as taught by the general confer
ence of the church.
