I MAY BE DEA'1 WHICH
CAUSES THIS HAPPENING
(Special Correspondence.)
Rome Tho heat is becoming in
tenso in Trieste, and that may have
something to do with the remarkable
story telegraphed to the Glornale.
d'Jtalia by 'iff! Trieste correspondent.
The Trieste correspondent reports
that, current ideas of how tho old Em
peror Franz Josef of Austria-Hungary
met his death are all wrong. Pie says
it all happened this Way:
Tho emperor and he"Tlrince.s Zitn
had quarreled for several months- be
cause Austria allied herself with Ger
many in the world war. The quarrel
reached a crisis one night in Vienna,
when the emperor of Germany was
dining: with Franz Josef. In the mid
dle of tho dinner the princess, becom
ing exasperated ju snrne .remark- made
by the kaiser, drew a revolver and at
tempted to kill him. The bullet missed
fire, and the kaiser, whipping out a
pistol, shot iincc himself, slightly
wounding the princess. The whole In
cident was kept quiet, but tho next
day a court' bulletin announced that
the princess was suffering from a
slight ailment.
A few weeks later, November 21,
1916. thv Emperor Franz Joseph wrs
discovered hanging in his bedroom.
The scandal had been loo much for
him. All the court officials and hire
lings were sworn to secrecy, .but the
Trieste corrpspcr.clart ef the Giox'nale
d'ltalia cays he got" the story from
"unimpcaehabl? sources."

Into England during the month of
