CONDITION IS SERIOUS
Scarcity of Food in Austria Spurs Au-
thorities to Immediate Action.

London, Oct. 1.-The food question
is a grave one in Austria, according to
a dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Chiasso, Switzerland. The Austrian
emperor has issued an edict empower
ing the government to take all meas
ures necessary to alleviate the situa-
ton. The price OF corn is double that
of normal times and is increasing at
the rate Of three per cent daily.
German and Austrian dealers are
travelling in neutral countries, the dis
patch says, trying to buy corn and an
pouncing at the same time that 1t Is
intended for other countries. Italy
has demanded that the fullest guar
antee be given that corn purchased
there is not to go to Austria.
Rumania's embargo on the export
of corn has caused CONSERVATION in
Austria, according to the dispatch,
and it Is said that Austria is now
making desperate efforts to get wheat
from the United States, but the block
ade Of the Adriatic makes relief from
this quarter doubtful. The shortage
of food is also felt in the German
army, the dispatch declares.

keep his temper in leash; he was hard
er put to restrain the mutinous Swede,
who itched with desire for assassi-
nation. Toward the end of the day
even the philosophic Marcel grew i'll
natured and snarling. Somehow Mark
felt their hospitality of the noon hour

them, though they we're his seniors
by at least ten years.
"One must live, you know" he re-
minded Marcel. And one must work"
"One mus not be treat like a dog,

French oath. "Jo'ann, you ave my

Suddenly the Swede dropped his
shovel. "Ay bane by endt Ja!"
Johann was too slow In his mental
processes to be ehamed into patience.
Pick up that shovel and get to

The Swede blinked stupidity for a
moment, then slowly obeyed.

sneered.

Marcel, too, stared and then, with a
gesture OF contrition. bent himself dog
gedly to his task.
Mark thought he heard a chuckle.
He looked up to meet the eyes Of the
tanner. As to the chuckle, he may
have been mistaken: In the keen Inn
| personal glance was no sign of recog-
milton. Henley, with the labor boss,
departed on his tour of inspection.
Mark gave himself anew to his work,

Henley, but the submissiveness OF his

of that expansion.
| Mark learned that there are a right
method and wrong of doing even
the simple task Of plying a shovel;

even so common an animal as the day
laborer which brings out his highest
| efficiency. He found, moreover, that
he had the gift-granted as often to

and the wise-of popularity. Men
liked him; they laughed at his jokes

Marcel always called him "m'sieu," a
distinction he accorded not even to
Blair. the labor boss.
One chill. foggy evening, as the
whistle blew. he looked about him and
realized that the excavation for the
new mill was completed.
'why, we're through" he muttered
Johann stared stupidity.
