that the note was delivered this mcrn-

at $40 o'clock yesterday Afternoon
and officials had hoped that it had
reached Berlin before the end of the

1t is generally regretted in official
quarters here that publication Of the
note WAS not withheld until it waA
definitely known that it had been re-
ceived in Berlin.

by Sarte Garbaldi, son of Gen. Ricciotti
Garibaldi. who has been lighting with
the French.
IF the Government refuses to go TO
war against Austria" he shouted. my
family Will lead the people on the barri-
cadcs.' This assertion was received with
the widest enthusiasm. The gravest
apprehensions are felt regarding the
present situation.
The situation suddenl; became so
tense to-day that the King signed y de-
cree conv ening the Chamber Of Deputies
on Monday or Tuesday. according to
authoritative reports. Parliament was
not scheduled TO meet until next Thurs
day.
The military and police were unable
TO check the crowds to-day and some
portions of Rome were virtually under
mob control. The excitement became so
prevalent tfat stores We're closed and
business was practically suspended
while rrowds marched through the
streets shouting Down with Germany :"
Also for the second time within twenty
tour hours the rioters attempted 20 walk
through TIE gates OF the royal palace.
Nhil" lnterventiunists stalked through
Palazzo Montecltorio, the pariiamcN-
tary building, breaking windows and de-
manding war.
The German Deputy. ErZherger was
attacked by u mob when riding through
the city. The windows Of his ear were
smashed and he only escaped by speed
ing through the crowd.
Very little is known regarding the
Kings attitude toward the resignation
Of Premier Salandra. II is generally
felt. however. that he at first refused TO
accep; the resignation, and maintained
his stand until the Premier became In
