ASSASSIN NOT SANE
Austrians Think The Slayer OF Tha
Premier 10 a Crank Without
Any Backing.

Vienna, Oct. %, via London, Oct. %.
Government circles here regard the
killing of Premier Stuergkh of Aus
tria as an act of political crank
which can In no wise influence the po-
litical situation or the course of the
war. This statement was made to the
correspondent of the Associated Press
in high responsible quarters. 1t Is
pointed out that the time which has
elapsed since the murder has shown
that DR.. Friedrich Adler, the assassin,
stands alone. His act is disavowed by
the socialist party and press and con-
demned by his father, Victor Adler.
socialist member of the lower cham
ber of the reichsrath.
Adler stated to the police that he
shot Stuergkh because the premier op-
posed the convening of parliament. 1t
is stated officially that Stuergkh had
at no time done this and that he could
not do it because the convening of par.
lament was matter In the hands of
the political parties.
The Austro-Hungarian press brands
Adler as vile, irresponsible criminal
and without exception deplores the
fact that the act of crazy man should
disturb the peace of the people. The
city is quiet. The public, while ma
turally greatly interested, regards the
murder as purely private crime.

ARGENTINE CONSUL
SEES WAR LESSON

New York, Oct. 23.-The necessity
of true pan-Americanism is the lesson
which the war teaches to America, de-
clares Bruno Cittadini, the Argentine
consul general in Petrograd who is
here on his way from the Russian cap
ital to Buenos Aires.
"This war has taught me what l
hope it teaches all the nations on this
side Of the Atlantic, the necessity Of
true pan-Americanism," said Mr.. Cit.
tadini. II believe the United States
realizes the opportunity that pam
Americanism offers.
Europe had drifted SO far back,
morally and economically, that it will
take her many generations to regain
her stability"

UNDERWOOD IS NOT
FOR ADAMSON LAW
DEMOCRATIC SENATOR THROWS
MONKEY WRENCH INTO
GEARS OF PARTY CLAIMS.

Chicago, Oct. %. Senator Oscar
Underwood of Alabama has thrown q
monkey wrench into the machinery In
his speeches in Indiana, according to
advices received at western republican
headquarters. Chairman Will H. Hays
of the republican state committee OF
Indiana, in statement yesterday as
serts CONSERVATION among democrats
followed Senator Underwood's talks.
He says:
Democratic leaders of Indiana are
in blue funk as a result of Senator
Underwood's fiat refusal to stultify
himself in his speaking tour Of this
state.
"He was told in advance that 1t was
to the Adamson law, but the manner In
which he did 80 has caused consterna-
ton in the democratic ranks. He sim
ply declared in his Indiana speeches
what he declared in congress; that the
law is not an eight hour law at all, but
wage raising law passed to avert q
strike. This was the only defense he
made of 1t and his words fell like a
wet blanket on his audience.
Democrats Try to Curb Him.
Fort Wayne is an Indiana railroad
center, and Senator Underwood, pre-.
vious to speaking there in the evening
spoke in the afternoon at the little city
of Auburn, where he frankly referred
to the Adamson law as wage raising
measure passed to meet an emergency
II am advised that large delega-
tion Of Fort Wayne politicians took the
matter up with the senator and EN-.
phatically told him that in Fort Wayne
he should call the law an eight hour
law, as his audience would be COM
posed largely Of railroaders who had
been invited especially to hear him dis
cuss this statute.
Senator Underwood heard the dele
cations declarations and remarked: II
think, gentlemen that understand
you perfectly" That was all
His Talk a Bomb Shell.
But when he spoke In Fort Wayne
he proceeded to lay especial stress on
the fact that the Adamson law had
nothing whatever to do with the hours
of labor and that 1t was simply law
to increase wages. passed to tide over
a serious situation. He said:
eve were confronted with situa-
tion that threatened the welfare Of the
entire country. The brotherhood men
would not arbitrate and there was no
way that congress could enforce arbi-
tration except by the use Of Z bayonet
Something had to be done to save the
c0uutSx observation-disclosures. treaaas
to the railroad manager: You can pay
the men Is per cent more and We will
provide commission to fnd out
whether you can pay 1t out Of your
present revenue That Is all there
was too 1t.
"The speech Is voted . calamity by
the local democracy, for 1t vindicated
completely the republican contention
as to the Adamson law and gave the
lie direct to President Wilson's claim
that his support Of the statute was
based on principle rather than expedi.
ency."
