HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT
 FIRM AGAINST CHARLES

Budapest, Oct g tby the A. P)- The Hungarian government, while Charles and his army was yet some miles from the capital, was standing firmly against his restoration to the throne. Government troops soon after word was received of the former kings intentions to invest or invade Budapest, established a line of defence around the town of Bickewich, fifty miles from Budapest, which is held by regiments recruited from the Hapsburg-hating peasants of certain districts. These troops were under stringent orders to prevent the passage of Charles train, and as 8 precaution the rails were torn up.
 Charles apparently gained some ground, as the troops at Komorn who. according to previous report, had turn ed back his train, are now said to have swor nallegiance to him. Former En- press is believed to be with him but is suffering from cold which she ac- quired during ;her airplane trip.
 The cabinet after notifying the af- lies of it's decision to- oppose the res toration of Charles, remained in eontin- uous session, devising means of action. The ministers representing the agricul- tur eelement., asked for the arrest of the former king.
