 In serious cases, where the patient can afford it. the recognized health re- sorts of the country are recommended. as these minerals are in the Natural State. and are more easily assimiiiatso than any manufactured preparation. :. Tie analysis of Ferraline brings II within the class of those mineral waters in concentrated form and, therefore results should be obtained in muen shorter time from the use of Ferraiine than would be possible in lengthy visit to some of these famous resorts.

PREVENTED EXPANSION

"l That a strong centralized Aus tria under Francis Ferdinand was too strong a barrier against German ex- pansion towards the far east. Fran cis Ferdinand started to centralize his power first with the creation Of a ministry of the imperial court of which the intention was to offset Mag yar power
 go That there was a strong opposition against the direct, secret and common electoral right for Austria and Hungary.
 ..3. That there was fusion of all aris- tccrats and landlords in Austria and Hungary for the support of the Emperor against peoples rights and social demo- crats.
 "Feudalism and despotism was supposed to return under Francis Ferdinand. The Emperor and the aristocrats with other landlords wanted to rule. In Hungary Count Tisza and certain Mr. Kristoffy were the secret supporters of Francis Ferdinand through Count Czernin. Other Hungarian aristocrats, according to doc ,,n,es,ts were pro-German and called .rehels' by Francis Ferdinand. | "Again, Francis Ferdinand was dan ger to the German Emperor and his as- nlrations. Emperor William feared and hated the ,Slavs. but liked the Magyars. IJA ca id that Francis Ferdinand was too rabid towards the Magyars and tried to influence him.

New York, March 27.-George Greet, former chairman of the committee on public information, made public here tonight a summary of the secret cor respondence of Count Czernin, late foreign minister of Austria a-Hungary, which was turned over to Edgar Sis son at Prague by the custom official of the Bohemian government on Jan uary 24 last.
 One of the sensational disclosures was that there was German Magyar conspiracy against Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir apparent to the throne of Austria, who was assassinated at Sarajevo on June 2s, 1914. because ne was considered a rival of the then Elm peror William.
 MT Greet and MT. Sisson accepted the privilege of using the correspon- dence in behalf of the United States government Translators and pho

 In a report to MT. Sisson on the scope of the letters, Captain Imman- 1 uel Voska. United States army, head of the Prague bureau of the commit l tee on public information, said: BUILDING STRONG AUSTRIA "From the documents and letters 1. will be shown that Francis Ferdinand
 was working on building up a strong | Austria which would eventually eman- cipate itself from the influence of Der /, lin. This was blocking Beriins plans l for expansion toward the east and the ! Berlin government came to an. under standing with the Budapest govern-
 rnent to offset the plans of Francis Ferdinand. ' 1 "From one of the letters it is eyi- dent that the German Emperor's son | Eitel Frederick. was selected to study | the Magyar language and to make 1 friends of the Magyar nobility.
