The important news, coming in

Dual Monarchy is being put for
food and the revolts which the
robbing oftstheS Ukrainians has
precipitated. So serious IS the
food situation throughodt Austria

While this is a confession that
| Austria cannot feed its popula-
tons, it is a further severe weak
ening Of the bonds of the Aus

confession Of the inability Of
Austria to stand without Ger

of this surrender of partial au-
thority over those sections of
Austria bordering upon Germany
are expected to be far-reaching.

porting on the Austrian situation,
says that Won Seydler will UNI
doubtedly be forced to resign
when the Emperor returns from

from his capital, Emperor Charles
empowered Won Seydler to dis
