LOOMS
IN AUSTRO-HUNGARY

Berne, Jan. 23..-A well defined
revolutionary movement is develop
ing in Austria-Hungary, according to
private advices received today from
the frontier. The Austrian govern
ment is taking active steps to meet
it and a conciliatory attitude has
been adopted toward the strikers.
A viennese newspaper received to-
day quoted Deputy Renner, socia-
list, as saying:
THE diminution of bread Is not
the chief cause OF the revolutionary
movement. The agitation is against
a prolongation of the war through
support Of Germsny's demands for
and indemnities."
