AMERICANS BUY
VAST ESTATES
Properties Of Frederick and
AlbrecIst Of Austria Taken Over
PAPERS SIGNED IN PARIS
Big Steel Works Ineluded-Tesehen
Plant And Mines, Castles, Sugar
Plantations And Dairies
Secured.

Paris.-Negotiation were completed
In Paris whereby the vast estates of
Archduke Frederick OF Austria and his
son, Archduke Albrecht-estimated to
be worth more than 5000, ,OOO, ,OOO-were
taken over by an American syndicate
which includes Charles II. Sabin, ].
Leonard Replogle, Frank A. Munsey,
Thomas j. Fielder and other prominent
American business men. Samuel I'm
termyer, New York lawyer, represent.
ed the syndicate in the negotiations
which have been in progress for some
time, and Archduke Albrecht took part
In behalf Of himself, his father, his
wife, Isabel. and his six sisters. DR..
Wilhelm Rosenberg OF Vienna, and DR.
Aurel Engry. of Budapest were coun.
sci for the HapsbdTgs.
The meeting here was the last Of
series during the past few months at
Carlsbad, Kissingen, Vienna and Paris.
The transaction concerns the vast land
and industrial holdings of the Haps-
burgs, distributed throughout Austria,
Czecho-Slovakia Jugo-Slavla, Poland,
Rumania and Italy. They include the
great steel works and mines in Tes-
chen, which are partly in Czecho-
Slovakia and partly in Poland. The
estate comprises numerous other in
dustries including the dairies which
formerly furnished most Of the Vienna
supply Of milk and butter, sugar plan.
tations, factories, apartment-houses
palaces and other private properties
in Vienna, castles in various parts of
the continent, about 100000 acres of.
agricultural and forest lands scattered
over several countries, and the re-
markable Albertina museum in Vienna
which is said to contain nearly one
million worth of art.
Archduke Frederick was a field
marshal and was commander-in-chief
of the Austro-Hungarian armies in the
late war. His great grandfather was
a nephew Of Emperor Francis I. and
was adopted by Duke Albrecht OF
Saxeteschen, who married Arch
duchess Maria Christina, daughter of
Maria Theresa. Archduke Frederick
is the uncle of King Alfonso. of Spain.
His sister was the Queen of Bavaria.
Thus a considerable part Of the prop
erty came from the Saxon house.
This is regarded as important by the
members of the American syndicate
because the properties they are taking
over were not part Of the possessions
OF the Austrian crown, but came to
Archduke Frederick from other
sources than the Hapsburgs.
