PUTS TRUST IN U. S.
AUSTRIAN COUNT EXPRESSES
FAITH IN AMERICA.
Rregrets Failure of Vienna to Appoint
Successor to Discharged Arbas-
sador to Washington.

London, Sept. 25.-Budapest papers
lowing report of a statement made by
Count Albert Apponyi in the Hunga-
rian parliament in the course OF a
speech on the foreign policy of the
government regarding the absence OF
the Austro-Hungarian ambassador in
Washington:
sit is one of the failures of the for
eign minister that he did not appoint
an ambassador in place of the dis
charged Austro-Hungarian ambassa-
dor at Washington. We are all iiv-
ing in hope that when at last peace
comes and when the time arrives for
neutral power to offer her services
1t will be the great republic across the
Atlantic as most fit for a work OF
such magnitude.
"We all hope the United States adj
ministration will take the affair in
hand sooner or later when they deem
! 1t proper to do so, and we find our
selves not even represented diplomat
| lctlly in q proper manner.
81 know that certain steps or hints
were offered on the part of the
| United States to the effect that the
position of ambassador should be
filled by the monarchy. In spite of
this we have not moved, although the
interests of the monarchy demand
that we should have a reliable and
able representative there"
In Hungarian political circles it is
rumored that should Count Apponyi
himself be asked to accept the mis-
sion as ambassador to Washington
he would not refuse to do so.

Increase Effective Thursday
Other Firms to Follow.

Chicago, Sept 23.-A new scale of
bread prices for Chicago, predicted
ever since the conference of the master
bakers in this city more than a week

one Of the city'salargest wholesalers,
as effective next Thursday, September
%. A new size loaf, resembling the
present fve-cent loaf, will be put on
the market, but will cost six cents.
When the master bakers were in
session here they were advised by a
lawyer that they must not agree to
raise the price of bread or they could
be prosecuted under the antitrust law
but that one firm might raise the price
independently and others follow of
their own volition. Other companies
have indicated their intention to fol-
low.
