REPORTED.

MARTIAL LAW is PROCLAIMED
TRACKS ARE TORN UP TO
STOP REBELS.

Budapest.-The Hungarian govern
ment, while Charles and his army were
yet some miles from the capital, was
standing firmly against his restora-
ton to the throne. Government troops
soon after word was received of his in
tention to invest or invade Budapest,
established n line of defense around
Bickerwich, fifty miles from Budapest.
These troops were under stringent or
ders to prevent the passage of Charles
train and as a %precaution the rails
were torn up.
Charles apparently gained some
ground, as the troops at Komorn are
said to have sworn allegiance to him.

with him, but it suffering from a cold.

lies of its decision to oppose the re-
storation of Charles, remained in ses-
sion.

master of the situation, and there is
apparent calm here.
Martial law has been proclaimed
throughout Hungary and Regent Hor-
thy has issued a manifesto to the
country to keep order. He calls on the
people to RESTRAIN the Royalists and
plotters who are plunging Hungary in
it inevitable and final catastrophe"
The cabinet council has resolved to
fight the "conspirators."

Emperor Charles in his second attempt
to regain the throne in Hungary have
reached Budaor, four miles from the
capital, where sharp fighting was In
progress. Regent Horthy is reported
to be leading the troops against
BILE in Budapest.
The situation in Hungary is beyond
the knowledge of the Austrian foreign
office, which lost communication with
Budapest. There have been many ru-
mors, including one reporting the en-
try of Charles, former king, into Buda-
pest, the detection of some govern
ment forces to him, repulse of the
monarchist forces and other conflict
ing information. But it is known
there has been brisk fighting near
Budapest.
