Caused Sensation.

Jan Is. 9:30 p. m.@The
announcement from Berlin published
also in the Vienna Fremdemblatt. that
Count Won Berchtold. the Austro-Hur-
garian minister Of 70. eign affairs. has
resigned and has been succeeded by
Baron Stephan Burian. has caused a
~censation in diplomatic circles in Ell,
rope.
Count Won Berchtold. who directed
Austro-Hungarian foreign relations for
? number OF years and was responsible
for the note to Servta which precipi
tated the war. On a number OF occa-
sIons, both before and after the Bat
kan wars. had asked Emperor Francis
Joseph to relieve him of office. but
tho continued unsettled conditiors
which followed the annexation of Bos-
nj and Herzegovina made this impos-
sible. Anxious as he was TO retire,
therefore, II was not dreamed he
would do so while the war was in pro
Eress for II was considered hat such
action might suggest hat his policy
had fallen into disfavor. More signifi.

the announcement that he is succeed
ed by a Hungarian.
Hungary. while at n with Austria
in regard to the principle OF the war.
has shown dissatisfaction with the
manner in which IL has been prose
cuted. While Austro-H Hungarian troops
have been utilized to prevent a Rus
sian invasion OF Germany. and even
have been employed against France,
Hungary has been left open to inva-
sion.
Dissatisfaction Aroused.
Count Tisza. the Hungarian premier.
on several occasions gave u~tterance to
this dissatisfaction. and, finding that
his complaints were not heard at Wen.
ma. took them 10 Berlin. where he had
an audience with the German emperor.
Although II was said hat after this
trip the interests Of Hungary were
given more attention. Count Tlaza did
not stop his agitation and in a speech
on New Years day complained that
Hungary's position had not been fully
recognized. Insisting upon military
and political harmony between Hun
gary and Austria and Germany. he
said pointedly that the Hungarian ma
ton must assume strength. It's active
energy and the fact that all its inter
ests. aspirations and desires were in
complete accord with the true inter
ests Of the monarhcy.
The Vienna papers took Count
Tisza 20 task for this speech. one or
them. Die Zeit saying 10 was impOs-
sible TO reply on account Of the cen

The appointment Of Baron Burian
suggests, however. that the emperor

MINIMUM WAGE LAWS.

(Bricklayer. Mason and Plasterer.)
Agitation for minimum wage laws
has met with opposition from labor
leaders. and consequently the enact
ment Of such laws. or the proposal
TO do so has been the subject of
considerable discussion
Organized labor is against such
laws because they place a premium
on efficiency, which works to the
disadvantage Of many persons who
through age or other infrmity. have
had their ability impaired. Labor
leaders argue that with a minimum
wage law in force. the employer dis
charges the less capable. who auto
matically become more or less de-
pendent upon the state for support
others who claim 10 know declare
that from the point of view of the
taxpayer it would be cheaper TO care
for the inefficient than 10 care for
those incapacitated by poor wages
Which side is right is still a debat-
able question.

The inevitable result OF such ig-
norance is that thousands OF Chi
nese bear the marks Of untreated
diseases. As China has a large and
congested population. and as little
about sanitation is known there. il
IS obvious that the physiological
conditions must be bad indeed.
To young physicians OF an adven-
.turous spirit China is an inviting
though not a pleasant field. Western
doctors who practise there must have
the strength 10 wage a long. hard
fight against prejudice and tradition
They must have hardy constitutions
or they will themselves succumb 10

MEDICAL PRACTICE IN CHINA

A remarkable report REGARDING
the condition Of surgery and thera-

of the United States navy, in the

When it is considered what has been
accomplished by occidental science,

The Chinese physicians use the
crudest remedies. among them being
dried insects and reptiles. Surgical
instruments are rough, and only the
simplest operations are attempted.
The Chinese have only a general idea
of anatomy, as they do not practice
dissection. They make, for example,

FOR BIC SERIES
Baseball Magnates Meet Today
to Make Arrangements.
American League Wants First
Game Played October s.

New York, Oct. All the details
of the coming worlds series between
the Boston Americans and the Phila-
delphia Nationals will ! ranged at
a meeting of the national commission
to be held here oday.
On the SIS of a coin will depend the
choice of the city in which the open
ing game will be played; but there ap-
pears to be more interest in the date
of the opening contest than n the
location of the initial battle for the
championship of 1915.
Whether the series will begin on
Friday, October s, or on Saturday, Oc-
tober 8, is causing much discussion
among the followers of baseball in this
city. Many express the belief that
the American league interests will en-
deavor to have the play begin on Fri
day, October s, the day after the close
of the league season. This would pre-
clude the possibilities of the PhillieS
Cleveland Alexander, II the mound in
three of the first four games played,
as might easily be done should the
series start on Saturday, October 9.
Under the latter schedule Alexander
could be worked Saturday, Monday
and Wednesday, which in the opinion
of many close followers of baseball,
would be decidedly advantageous TO
the National league standard bearers.
A point made by those in favor of
beginning the series on Saturday is
that it would be a much more con-
venient date for those fans who desire
to witness all the games of the series.
Under the schedule, no matter which
city was selected for the opening
game, the visiting spectators would
have Sunday in which to make the
trip to the other city. Many believe
that the national commission in as
signing the dates of play, which are
expected to call for two games in one
city; two in the other, to be followed
by alternating games until the close of
the series.
Only one game was played in the
American league Friday and only two
in the National. The results follow:
