Cries of Austrians During Patriotic Demonstration < Held in Vienna.

Amsterdam, via London, May 24 TAI a. m.-Patriotic manifestations reached climax in Vienna last night according to a telegram received here from the Austrian capital. After Italy's declaration of war and the manifesto of Emperor Francis Joseph, calling upon the army navy and all his people for patriotic devotion, had been published in special editions about g o'clock, crowds gathered spontaneously in all parts of the city.
 Thousands of residents paraded the streets singing patriotic songs and cheering the emperor, the monarchy, tho allied army and navy. Before the war ministry patriotic speeches were delivered. Officers and soldiers were greeted with tremendous applause. Indignation against Italy found ex- pression in cries of Down with traitors. Down with Italyi" No att tacks upon Italians were made, how ever. M fst

LITTLE EXCITEMENT
 IN ITALIAN COLONY
Local Italians Eyincc But Little Sur prise When They Learn of
 ... Italy's Declaration.

The long expected announcement that Italy has joined the war on the side of the Allies which came today has occasioned but little excitement III the local Italian colony. While all of the Italians in this city evince great interest in the situation. thcre has been no pubic demonstration,f nor does there seem to be any planned.
 John DiNonno, a local steamship agent who does considerable business in securing passage to and from Italy for his countrymen, states that there has been no appreciable increase in the number engaging passage since the war between Italy and Austria seemed about to become a reality.
 When the war talk first started, however, MT. DiNonno states, quIte a large number of the younger Ital- ian men in this city, those who rad been here but a comparatively short time, became infused wi.h patriotism and at once returned to their native land for the purpose of enlisting in the army.
 Should tho war with Italy prove a long drawn out and deadly affuir, however, it will pull heavily on local Italians as there are a large number of those eligible for the reserve army hre who would certainly be recalled.

SHERIFF FINED FOR
 DELIVERING BOOZE
"Will'. Hart Didn't Know He Was Violating Law by Not Having
 Orders.
(speciai to the Herald.

Plainville, May 24.-Deputy Sheriff W. c. Hart of this place, and James Lee. one of his teamsters, were each fined $1O and costs, amounting to S42.2O, in the police court in Bristol this morning, Judge W. J. Malone ruling that charges of violation of tine liquor laws, brought against them by the authorities, had been sustained. An appeal to the superior court was taken.
 They were accused of having brought into a no-license town for de- livery, kegs of beer for which they did not have the orders of the owner to his agent, which the law requires.
 Their appearance in court resulted from the arrest Saturday night of Lee, Ruben Bates, Clifford May and Addison Ives, a quartet of local young men, who were on one of Hart's livery teams when it went through Forest vile. The outfit was held up by an officer, who locked up the young men when they were unable to show orders for the liquors in the wagon.
 According to Sheriff Hart, the beer was brought here Saturday by two Polish residents of Forestville. They subsequently turned it over to him, paying him to deliver it to their homes. As common ca-rier he as- sumed he had the right to make a delivery without complying with the rormalities which the law has woven around beer peddlers. lie mad no knowledge that he left himself or his teamsters amenable to punishment
 Judge Malone ruled differently, however, and the accused were let off with the minimum penalty, the court realizing that there was no intention of breaking the law.
