A large section of opinion in Aus
tria-Hungary also is alarmed over
the prospect of a renewal of war with
Russia. Dispatches from Amster-
dam and Zurich quote Austro-Hun-
garian newspapers to this effect and a
Vienna dispatch to the Vossische
Zeitung reports rising of feeling
against Germany on account of her
action against Russia.
The Neue Freie Presse and the
Reichspost argue that as Austria
Hungary no longer has any enemy on
her eastern frontier she is not call
ed to interfere in Russian internal af-
fairs The Arbeiter Zeitung, Vienna's
leading Socialist newspaper, insists
emphatically that Austria-Hungary
must not take part in a new offensive.
1t thinks that the invasion of to-
tally defenseless country will gain the
German government little support
among the German workers, who, al
though they entered the war against
czardom with enthusiasm, will not
endorse its continuance for the pur-
pose of overthrowing the labor gov

Austria Hungary it adds. Can
not hinder the plans of the German
imperialists, but it cannot and dare
not join Germany in a new war on
Russia. This appears also to be the

SCHRAMM TELLS
TALE OF MURDER
OF CARY PRIEST
Describes to Capt. E. o,
Cronan Method of Accom-
plishing the Crime.
NAMES "JOE THE WOP"
AS HIS ACCOMPLISH
Prisoner Believed to Be
Member of a Chicago
Gang of Bandits.

Mike Schramm, the confessed muir
derer of Father Kayser, the Polish
priest in Gary, Indiana, nearly three
years ago, was again before Detective
Captain Cronan today and gave ad-
ditional details of how the priest was
done to death in a struggle to take
$4,000 away from him.
According to the latest story told by
the assassin, he met another man
known to him only as "Joe the Wop"
in a poolroom in a downtown district
of Gary. Joe asked him If he was
game enough to go and get some mon
ey, and he answered that he was.
The pair went to the priests house
and "Joe the Wop" took Schramm to
an open window through which he
showed the priest counting a huge
pile of money, the proceeds of char
ity bazaar. Then he stationed
Schramm to guard the back door of
the house and he opened fire with
revolver at the priest.
Apparently some of his shots went
wild for pictures of the,apriest's study
show bullet marks all over the walls,
but all did not miss their mark and
the priest mortally wounded struggled
to his feet, ran through several rooms
of the house and out the back door
in vain effort to get help.
At the back door he was met by
Schramm, who struck him down with
a heavy club. The priest dropped
and never moved. Schramm then,
according to his story, became terri
fed and ran. Joe the Wop," in the
meantime, had entered the house by
the open window and gathered up the
money, making off with the booty.
Schramm said he did not see Joe
the Wop" for several days afterward,
but when he did see him he asked
him about his share of the money,
only to be told "You are lucky to be
alive much less whining about dough-"
After this Schramm did not tarry
long in Gary, but came east He has
been in Bridgeport since last Septem-
Der, shortly after which he came I'M
der the notice of Detective Captain
Cronan, who at that early date de-
cided that the man needed watching
The result was his arrest yesterday.
Schramm declared to Captain Gro
nan To-Day tnat IOr the nrSC time IN
nearly three years he was able to
sleep and rest well last night. He
seems anxious to make a clean breast
of his share of the murder come to
trial, and have it all over with.
Captain Cronan is of the opinion
that Schramm is a member of the
bandit gangs that infested Chicago a
number of years ago and is putting
him under a continuous grilling in an
effort to worm out of him what con-
nection he had with a number of
other crimes committed by gangsters
in the Windy City.
