CHARLES AWAITS
DECISION OF THE
ALLIED NATIONS
Former Hungarian Emper'
1, ossalaa Y !. Er1,ne.ss y Nat In,s.. I
termed at Tihany.

Budapests Oct. 2e.-(By the Asso;-
ciated ess.)-Former Emperor
Charles was today awaiting the deci-
sion OF the Allied nations regarding
his exile from Hungary to some place
where he will be prevented in future
from disturbing the peace of this
country and central Europe. The
erstwhile monarch and his wife were
,interned at the Benedictine Abbey at
Tihany, on Platten Lake. about fifty
miles southwest of here, and the col-
lapse of his attempt to regain the
Hungarian throne was considered
complete.
1t seemed probable that Charles
and Zita would remain at the Abbey
for some time. as the Allies were be-
lieved to be disposed to go slowly In
choosing his future place of residence.
There apparently has been no evident
desire on the part Of the entente ma
tions to place him on st. Helena, or
any other distant island. as such ac.
ton would make Charles assume the
role of a martyr, in the eyes of his
followers. At the same time, it ap-
peared to be evident that it would be
difficult to find refuge for him on
the European continent.
It was believed today that severe
punishment would be meted out to
the men who aided Charles in his at
tempt to resume royal prerogatives,
and fought for him against the Hun
garian government.
Budapest, Oct. 26.--(By the Asso-
ciated Press. 1.-THE Hungarian gov
ernment today formally asked former
Emperor Charles to abdicate and to
recognize the complete cessation of
his dynastic rights. He was ordered
to surrender himself to British au
thorities and was told that an answer
to these demands was expected today.
