ATTACK ARCHDUKE
Armed With Axes and PitchforkS
They Bombard Palace
With Rocks

LONDON, December 2S.-An Ex-
change Telegraph despatch, originating
in Vienna, states that Niennese mob
attacked the palace of the Archduke
Stephan, the heir to the Austrian
throne, on Christmas day, smashing
many Of the windows and destrOyin-
some of the pictures hanging on the
walls of the palace apartments. The
mob became angered at the reports
which became public at the elaborate
preparations which had been made for
the Christmas dinner banquet to be
given by the archduke, these reports
emphasizing the scantincss of the fare
with which the average Vicnnese was
forced to submit because of the scarcity
of-food, due to the war blockade by
the ships of the Allies.
Armed with pitchforks and axes, th'
street mob marched to the palace and
denounced the squandering of food stuff
by the members of the imperial fam
lily there gathered. Stones were thrown
through the palace windows and gen
eral fight took place when the police
arrived. The mob was finally dis
persed.

NAVAL MANEUVERS

Atlantic Fleet of Submarines
Come To Grief At Sea
In Practise
lAssOeiated Press BY Federal wtrslsssO

WASHINGTON, December 2S.-As IL
result of the recent naval maneuN rrs
in which the submarines of the Atlantic
tlotillas went to sea under war condI
tons and came to grief, it is probable
that the navy department will recon
mend the building of five sea going
craft of the very largest size, up to
2OOO tons displacement, while the l%0U
tons submersibles at first inclSded in the
naval program for next year will not
be built
1t is probable that standardized
type of coast defense submarines Will
be docided upon, 400 tons being re-
pnrded as the most effective size, ami
of these some twenty-five will be in
cluded in the naval program for the
year. An appropriation for these
coast defenders, tOtaling approximate lN
$3.50, 900, will be asked of congress.
The wage scale, etrecting ma .jorltN
of the 25,OOO employees in the various
naval yards and shops, is to be raised
after New Years Day.
