the troops from reaching the outside
railways were taken over yesterday
for military traffic, and the trans
portation of the general public.
Servia, it is known, is just as ac-
tive in moving her troops. Strong
forces were dispatched to the forti-
fed towns of Valyevo and Uzhitza, on
the Bosnian frontier, and to Svilaj-
natz, in the eastern part of the
country, while strong divisions of
volunteers, reinforced by regulars
are gathering along the river Drina,
near Losnitz on the Bosnian frontier.
Part of Russian Army Modified.
The partial mobilization of Rus.
sian troops in southern and south
western districts was ordered by the
Russian war office last night, accord
ing to dispatches received here. 1t
is argued In official circles that al
though this action dangerously di-
minishes the chances of maintaining
European peace, it does not neces-
sarily imply a rupture of relations
between Austria-Hungary and Rus
sia. Hope is still expressed that some
European power may yet succeed In
bringing about an understanding be-
tween those two states.

This announcement preceded tine
declaration of war by only two hours
and gave an exhibition of the perfect
ly harmonious working of the part
nership between the two nations
which stood firmly together through
the Bosnian crisis of 1909.
Russia Holds Key.
The center of interest has shifted
sharply to st. Petersburg which holds
the decision whether an European
war, which probably would shift the
balance of power II not rearrange the
entire map of Europe, is to break out.
Negotiations are afoot there between
the Russian foreign minister, Sergius
Sazonoff, and the Austrian ambassa-
dor which are designed to "localize"
the conflict.
The nature and progress OF these
conversations are wrapped in the
thickest of mystery, but they are the
last plank the neutral powers are
clinging to in the face of storm
which may wash all under.
There is no doubt in British minds
that Austria had fully resolved to
utilize the provocation afforded by
the Serajevo murder to wipe the
islate clean of all accounts against
Servia and served an ultimatum on
her which was designed to have no
result save war.
England is Waiting.
The next news expected Is the oc-
cupation of Belgrade and that even
now may be an accomplished fact
4 Reports of small encounters along the
frontier have been permitted to pass
tthe censor, but military experts here
lhelieve mobilization has already been
ieffected and that thoroughly planned
i lcampaign Is well under way. sfaG9i
There is absolutely no enthusiasm
In England for war-no desire for
this particular war, which confronts
Great Britain, yet there is q general
belief that her obligations to hel
ipartnersii in the triple entente as well
as her interests as a great European
power will force her to support Rus.
sia and France in any steps they may
take.
Day of Deep Gloom.
The dark developments of the day
were received without excitement
but with the deepest gloom. The i'm.
mediate effect of the war cloud ii
likely to be compromise on home
lrule, since all parties feel that do
mestic dissentions must be settled al
all costs in the face OF peril from
without.

CATTLE DISEASE
NOW UNDER CONTROL
IN SEVERAL STATES
Agricultural Department S
Order Lifting Canada
Quarantine Followed by
Encouraging Statement.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The order OF
Secretary OF Agriculture Houston lifting
the quarantine against Canada on ac-
count of the foot and mouth disease is
regarded by the authorities here as en-
couragng evidence that they are ION the
outside of the disease" This means that
there is ground for belief that quaran-
tines already declared have been sufii-
cient TO stop the movement of infected
cattle and tnaL the disease can be held
within the limits OF the areas already
quarantined.
ut is quite possible, of course" says
the department in n statement today.
that sporadic cases may be found in
one or two more States. but 1t Is hoped
that, even IL this does occur, the damage
will not be serious.
Another cause for encouragement is
the fact that although shipment of in
fected cattle reached Spokane, wash
some days ago, no new cases have since
been reported from that State. 1t has
not been considered necessary TO quaran-
tine Washington.
AT present the States most seriously
affected are Ohio. Illinois, Indiana and
Pennsylvania. These are all feeding
states, in which farmers make practice
of buying cattle and swine and finishing
them for the market. outside of this
belt, the three New England States OF
Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massa-
chusetts are perhaps the subject of the
greatest concern.
The situation in New York. the depart
ment declares, seems to be fairly well III
hand. The greatest single loss has been
that of dairy herd of 2S9 cattle which
was found infected in the borough of
Queens OH Long Island. The entire herd
had to be slaughtered. The Buffalo stock
yards have also been infected, and some
cases have been found in Erie County in
the Immediate vicinity.
In Delaware, also, the disease has been
confined to Wilmington, and in New Jer-
sey to Hudson County. A portion at least
of both these States. it is hoped, may be
released from quarantine at an early
date.
Iowa. Wisconsin and Kentucky. it is
believed will soon be free from quaran-
tine Although the spread of the disease
seems to have been in a great measure
checked, 1t is believed 1t will take at
least six months to stamp out all traces
Of the infection.

STABS TWO OTHERS
Wedding Turned Into Trag-
edy, Husband-Elect and
Guests in Jail and AssaiIant
Escapes.

Underneath an old-fashioned Hungarian
canopy used at marriage ceremonies in
the land of the Magyar Katie Wannock,
10 years old, a bride, stood early today.
Next to her stood her nance, Paul Hano-
that. "A years old. q native OF NaBy-Ida
a suburb, near Budapest
Fifty guests were drinking Hungarian
wines to the health OF the bride and
bridegroom. Others were discussing Em-
peror Francis Joseph. and the European
war. The scene was in the parlor OF 332
North Daren street.
Suddenly the door opened. Before the
wedding guests, who were attired in
their native costumes, stood Mike Musek,
20 years old, q musician and a rival for
fair Katle's hand He wasn't invited
to the wedding. When invitations we're
sent out II was the consensus of opinion
that Musek's temper wouldn't agree with
the wedding.
II drink wine-and you drink beer-to
the health of the bride we all must
drink" sang young Hungarian maiden
In real Magyar language, when the lights
went out.
Look out for Musek," shouted the
guests.
True enough. Musek was in the room.
He was there with a knife which was
sharpened to the point.
Musek rushed toward the canopy and
tried to slash the groom. Mike Green,
20 years old, best man and pal OF Hano-
that. stepped between. lie was slashed
in the abdomen twice. He fell 20 the
floor unconscious Then Paul Baraboss.
Of 1920 Winter street, tried to take away
the knife. He also was stabbed.
Green was removed to Hahnemann Hos
pltal. Physicians say he will die Bara-
boss will recover.
During the excitement Musek escaped.
Special Policemen Barry, Clarke and
Ernest of the 1lth and Winter streets
station, arrived soon. They searched for
Musek, but he was among the missing.
The police then questioned all the guests.
Of the 90 guests 25 were permitted to
go home. The others of the party, in
,luding Hanothat and the bride, were
taken to the lookup.
Magistrate Belcher heard the story In
the 18th and Winter streets station to-
day. He discharged the bride, but inn
posed a fine of s. on the other guests
Including the bridegroom.
The bride is now trying to raise the s.
hne for her better half.

TO BE UNDER CONTROL
Authorities Believe it Will Be Un-
necessary to Extend Quarantine.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-That the
foot and mouth disease can now be
stamped out without quarantining any
more States, is the belief today expressed
i'm q statement issued by the Department
of Agriculture. The raising of the quar-
antine against Canada last Friday was
the first step toward normal conditions,
the department says. and it is hoped that
other infected areas soon may be re-
leased from the embargo.
The States most seriously affected now
are Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Pennsyl-
vania, although the situation in Con-
necticut, Massachusetts and Rhode
Island still is grave, the statement says.
The disease in New York is fairly we'll
in hand and Notwithstanding that the
Buffalo stock yards are infected, the
outbreak has been localized.

RARE MINERALS RELATED
Chemist Made Interesting Discovery
Concerning Anhydrite and
Thaunasite.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-Frederick Innis
Allen, a lawyer and chemist OF this city,
BY examining crystal blasted out OF a
quarry al West Paterson. N. j., has dis
covered that two rare mineral substances,
heretofore considered 70 be entirely IN
lationship OF parent and offspring
He says the mineral Is anhydFlte a sui
phate OF lime, which, upon decomposition,
produces thaumasite. AnhydHte Is trans
parent and light blue in color and occurs
surrounded by amsthystine quartz, maxi
ing unusually handsome specimens. De-
composition changes the mineral 20 a
pure white crystalline msss OF thauma-
site. which remains in place ana Ia the
form of the original anhydrte, Allen ex-
plained. The new mineral has no com
mercial value.
