And now. as If that were not enough,
there was talk Of an alliance with
karnia. an alliance which, carried
through, would destroy the hope Of a
republic.
The countess stared.
"The price Of the alliance, madame.
is the Princess Hedwig in marriage.
The committee, which knows all
things, believes that you have reason
to dislike this marriage"
Save that she clutched her cloak
more closely, the countess made no
move. But there was a soft stir among
the figures. Perhaps, after all. the
committee as a whole did not know all
things.
ITO prevent this alliance, madame,
is u first aim. There ore others to
follow. But"-he bent forward-"the
king will not live many days. 1t is
our hope that that marriage will not
occur before his DEATH"
BY this time Olga Loschek knew
very well where she stood. The com.
mittee was propitlatory. She was not

He will not support Livonia until he

"A marriage Of expediency," said
the countess impatiently.
The speaker for the committee
shrugged his shoulders. Perhaps" he
replied. although there are those Of
US who think that In this matter Of
expediency. Karl gives more than he
receives.
1.-THE matter lies thus. madame. The
chancellor is now In Karnia. Doubt

alliance for various reasons, and we

"Yes, madame. But that Is not oil,

The clock licked, and water drIpped
into the tin pail with metallic splashes.

His voice took on a new, almost q
fanatic note. They had watched the
gradual decay Of the country. he said.
Its burden Of taxation grew greater
each year. The masses sweated and
toiled, to carry on their backs the dead
weight Of the a~ristocracy and the
throne. The iron hand of the chancel-
lor held everything: an old king who
would die, was dying now, and after
that a boy, nominal ruler only, while
the chancellor continued his hard rule.

MORE FOOD
RIOTS IN The
WAR LANDS
Revolts Among POpulace in Ger
many and Austria Hungary Now
Overshadow Military Operations

While the military operations on the
various fronts continue at low ebb,
the political pot still boils furiously in
Austria Hungary and Germany, in both
of which countries there have been
new outbreaks among the populace be-
cause of economic and food conditions.
Dispatches from Switzerland say
that there has been serious rioting in
Bohemia owing to a shortage in flour
rations. Mobs smashed shop windows
and plundered stores. Likewise sew
eral outbreak are reported in the In
dustrial regions in Rhenish Prussia,
where troops had to be called out.
Attacks by the pangermanistS
against any and all persons who are
opposing their war aims, continue UNI
abated in Germany. Count Won Hert-
ling German chancellor, shortly will
make a further statement regarding
the Belgian question, offering positive
suggestions and proposals.
Speech Not Received
The statement was authorized at the
White House on Monday that Presi-
dent Wilson had not received a copy
of Count Czernin's speech outlining
Austrian-Hungarian peace conditions,
and had seen only the cabled extracts
of the address.
Pangermans Are Routed
Reports to the state department told
of the breaking up of pangerman meet
ings by socialists who are tired or
war, while other dispatches indicated
that the pangermans are sufficiently
powerful to prevent any concessions
from their demands at Brest-Litovsk
and elsewhere. SO in the official re-
view, the only feasible manner in
which the German socialists could be
appeased is by the indirect means Of
a pacific statement on war aims by the
Austrian government, and this is be-
lieved to be the explanation of Count
Czernin's address and the talk OF con-
veying it directly to America.
