RUSSIA WILL NOT
PERMIT AUSTRIA TO
OPPRESS SERV|ANS
1t Is Asserted Rejoicing in
SerVia Is Silent But None
the Less Heartfelt
CROWN PRINCE BLAMED
FOR CRASPING POLICY
Claimed His Elimination Will
Make for Peace Of Europe;
Was Dangerous Man

st. Petersburg, June 3O.-Austro-
Servian relations were being closely
watched from here today.
Partly because OF tAe racial relation
chip between the Russians and the
Servians and party for political reasons
Russia is Servia s friend 1t was stated
freely by men in high positions in the
czar S government that Nicholas will
not permit Austria to make Archduke
Francis Ferdinand's S assassination an
excuse for any imposition upon the lit
tie Balkan state.
None said outright that be was glad
the archduke was killed but it was
openly declared that his assassination
was the natural result of what was re-
ferred to as the grasping Balkan policy
for which he was declared to be re-
sponsible. Nor was the opinion con-
cealed that he was dangerous man and
that his elimination will make for more
peaceful relations between Russia and
Austria
1t was admitted that, just at the
moment, however, an Austrian attempt
to punish Servia for his death would
make trouble.
Bodies On Way Home.
Metkoviteh, Dalmatia, June 30.-The
bodies of Archduke Francis Ferdinand
of Austria and his wife arrived here
today, were transferred on board an
Austrian warship in the harbor and
escorted to sea by squadron of fight
ing vessels.
The warship will reach Trieste Thurs
day morning. From there the two
corpses will be taken by special train
to Vienna, arriving at 10 p. m.
Friday they will lie in state in the
Royal Hofburg capital and at midnight
both will be buried in the chapel at
the Archduke S Armstetten estate.
Archduke Charles, who is now in line
for the throne occupied at present by
Emperor Francis Joseph, will represent
the latter at the funeral.
It was believed, however, that the
present emperor will do all in his power
to settle this controversy before his
death. Whether he will succeed or not
was considered doubtful.
Little heed was given to the claim by
the so-called DR.. Klyave, a resident OF
the Kensington district of London, that
he is Archduke Dudolf, the emperor s
son, wno unquestionably either com
mitted suicide or was assassinated
years ago in his hunting lodge al
Meyerling.
MetOkitch was draped in mourning
when the bodies arrived from Serajevo
The streets were packed and all heads
were barred and but for the tolling OF
many bells, profound silence was OBJ
served as the two easkets were borne
from the railroad station to the navy
yacht Dalmat, which awaited them.
On the yacht, Count Attens, vicero,
of Dalmatia, laid a wreath on the arch
duke casket and banked his wife :
with flowers. The yacht 5 deck ais,
was flower-strewn.
From MetkOvitch the Dalmat de
scended the Narenta river, the peasants
in the villages on the shore holding
burning candles and kneeling in pray
er, while priests blessed the corpse
3s they passed.
At the Narenta s mouth the two cas-
kets were transferred on board tn
dreadnought Yiribusinitis and placed ol
the quarterback for the voyage T.
Trieste.

MADMAN JUMPS
OUT OF window
Mississippian, at Memphis
Hospital, Suffering from
Hydraphobia.
USE POWERFUL DRUGS
Is Given Enough to Kill Six Men in
Effort to Ease Pain-Death
Cannot BE Avoided.

Memphis, Feb. 23.-Nathan Schears,
20, member of a prominent family Of
Alligator Lake, mississippi, is in the
Presbyterian hospital here, dying
from hyraphobia, in it's worst form.
Displaying all the symptoms of a
mad dog, Schears early Monday morn
ing began having commissions and for
long intervals snapped and snarled at
attendants, and at times rent the air
with screams that were heard in ev-
cry room at the hospital.
Shortly after ten o'clock Schears
appeared to be resting quietly and the
nurses believed that the opiates which
had been administered in quantities
large enough to kill half dozen men,
were having some effect. Schears
asked her to leave the room for
minute. Scarcely had her back been
turned than he emitted a blood curd-
ling yell She ran back to the room
just in time to see him leap through
a window.
Schears lay where he had fallen and
for several minutes yelled at the top
of his voice. AS internes and nurses
ran to his side he arose on his hands
and knees and began snarling and
swapping at them. 1t required the
combined efforts five men to return
him to his room There he continued
violent and was finally placed be-
tween two mattresses in order to pre-
vent him doing bodily harm to himself
or others.
The appearance of commissions is
sure sign, says DR.. Louis Leroy, an
authority on hydrophobia, that death
is inevitable, but Schears may live for
another twenty-fOur hours.
