KILLS HEIR TO
THRONE OF AUSTRIA
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and
Dncliess of Hohenberg Are
Shot to Death.
Sarajevo, June 29.—Archduke Fran*
els Ferdinand, heir to the Austro
Hungarian throne, and his morganatic
wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, were
assassinated while driving through
the streets of Serajevo, the Bosnian
capital. A youthful Servian student
fired the shots which added another
to the long list of tragedies that has
darkened the reign of Emperor Fran
cis Joseph.
The archduke and his wife were
victims of the second attempt in the
same day against their lives. First
a bomb was thrown at the automobile
in which they were driving to the
town hall. Forewarned, however, of
a possible attempt against his life the
archduke was watchful and struck the
missile aside with his arm. It fell
under an automobile which carried
members of his suite, wounding Count
von Boos-Waldeck and Colonel Mc
rizzo.
On their return from the town hall
the archduke and the duchess were
driving to the hospital when the Ser
vian, Gavrio Prinzip, darted at the
car and fired a volley at the occu*

pants. His aim was true, for the
archduke and his wife were mortally
wounded. With them at the time was
the governor of the city, who escaped
injury. The bodies of his murdered
companions collapsed across him and
protected him from stray bullets.
The governor shouted to the chauf
feur to rush to the palace at top speed.
Physicians were in prompt attendance,
but their services were useless, as the
archduke and his wife were dead be
fore the palace was reached.
The murders occurred with Buch
rapidity that many persons near the
scene did not even hear the shots
The street is very narrow and the
assassin fired at close range.
Until the emperor's wishes are
known the bodies will he in state at
the palace here. They doubtless will
be interred in the Hapsburg vaults
in the Capuchin church in Vienna.
WILSON SEES BIG
BUSINESS REVIVAL
Declares Trust Legislation Will
Not Be Postponed.
Washington, June 27.—President
Wilson told a group of Virginia edi

The president then recounted the
business legislation of the present ad
ministration, how efforts were made
to postpone it, and continued:
"Then we advanced to the trust
program and again the same dread,
the same hesitation, the same urgen
cy that the thing should be post
poned. It will not be postponed, be
cause we are the friends of business.
"Because, when the program is fin
ished, it is finished the interrogation

ness is given its constitution of free
dom and is bidden to go forward un

"And just so soon as it gets that

United States."

OF INTEREST
SCANDINAVIANS
News Gathered In the Father
land and Elsewhere.
8WEDEN.
Says the Review of Reviews: The
Interest shown in the election for
members of the Swedish riksdag was
extraordinary. We have already
pointed out in these pages the excite
ment over the popular fear of Russia
and the parliamentary crisis with the
king which followed. The total vote
cast was 759,000, representing an In
crease of 156,000 votes since the regu
lar elections of 1911 and about three
fourths of the total body of enfran
chised citizens. On the part of the
Conservatives, in particular, the cam
paign was intensely bitter. One of
its most characteristic features was
the attitude assumed by them toward
the king. Openly this was expressed
by the slogan: "Leave the king out
side!" What it meant, however, was
something like this: "If you agree
with the king, you can use him as
much as you please if you disagree
with him, you must not mention him
at all." This is another point of com
munity between the Conservatives of
Sweden and England. The outcome
was pretty much what had been ex
pected. The Conservatives, naming
themselves for this special occasion
the "Defense Comes First" party,
made decided gains, but will, never
theless, remain in a minority as long
as the radical alliance—i. e., between
Liberals and Socialists—lasts The
party grouping in the new lower house
will be: Conservatives 86 (a gain of
22) Liberals 71 (a loss of 31) So
cialists 73 (a gain of 9). In the old
riksdag the radical majority was lfljg
in the new one it will be 58. It must
also be noticed that the Conservative
group—it can hardly be called a par
ty in our sense—is the least homo
geneous of the three, and the most
uncertain on all questions but one.
An analysis of the popular vote shows
that all three parties increased their
actual vote, but that the two extreme
parties attracted an overwhelming
majority of those voters who, under
ordinary circumstances, might have
stayed away from the polls. The two
radical parties cast 62.5 per cent of
the total vote, this being a reduction
of only 6.3 per cent since the previous
election. The upper house was not
dissolved. There the party grouping
is as follows: Conservatives sixty
eight, Liberals forty-nine, Socialists
thirteen—with a Conservative major
ity of only six. The- members of this
house are elected by the provincial
legislatures and elections for these
bodies took place almost simultaneous
ly with the elections for the lower
house of the riksdag. The outcome
was that the Conservatives gained
fifteen members in all those bodies
the Liberals lost fifty, and the So
cialists gained fifty-two. If the up
per hous6~ were to be dissolved and
a new one were to be elected by the
newly elected provincial legislatures
it would mean a loss of two Conser
vatives, a loss of five Liberals, and
a gain of seven Socialists—so in all
likelihood that branch of the riksdag
will stay as it is until the regular
elections in the fall. This means
that, in joint session, the radical al
liance has a majority of fifty-two
and this again means that the extreme
military demands are doomed unless
a split takes place in the Liberal
party.

A new factor, says the Western
American, of importance in European
politics consists of the active alliance
of the smaller nations to maintain
their neutrality. Negotiations are in
progress among Holland, Switzer
land, Denmark and Sweden and that
they will ultimately include Norway
and Belgium is evident. They con
template an entente with the provi
sion that in the event of any small
nations being attacked by a large
nation all the other members of the
alliance will attack the aggressor. As
the small nations of Europe have a
combined force almost as large as
that of Russia or Germany, such an
entente would result, it is contended,
in the safety of the minor nations.
Heretofore these have felt that their
security lay in the jealousy of the
powers, but ever since Japan became
a world factor Holland has been in
terror of losing her colonies. Sweden
also has been and is in fear of Russia.
Holland had about decided to build
five dreadnoughts, which would have
become the nucleus of a new small
nation's navy, when it was decided to
postpone action until England could
determine which was to be the war
ship of the future—the dreadnought
or the submarine. It is no$ expected
that such an entente as that in view
can be completed or officially an*
nounced for some time to come.

their national independence amidst
generally propitious circumstances.
Both at home and abroad the two
main principles of the constitution
have been upheld. A democratic
form of government and an independ
ent people have been created, and in
the midst of this work patriotism has
been strengthened and supported in
a way that cannot be overestimated
and to which each national event of
later years—as for instance 1905 and
at the jubilee of the university in
1911—has given unqualified expres
sion. The industrial awakening which
began in the Nineteenth century
has been continued. Prom one end of
the kingdom to the other we see the
advance of extensive industries. Wa
terfalls and mines—two of the most
important possessions—have been the
objects of keen speculation, whilst
the conquests that have been made in
these domains have been utilized ra
tionally and energetically. At this
point in history Norway finds itself
in the center of its industrial prog
ress. It stands out as an important
fact that the new industry has given
fresh direction to politics and we add
that it put an ineffaceable mark on
literature by the introduction of the
industrial worker into the novel and
on the stage. It has also been of
vital importance in creating a deeper
understanding of social questions,
while at the same time its daily life
has assumed other forms under the
influence of the numerous new condi
tions of existence and the ever grow
ing rush and intensity that are al
ways in the rear of modern invention
and requirements.

When Governor Hanna of North
Dakota arrived in Norway he was ac
corded unusual honors, not only ly
the citizens of North Dakota now vis
iting the little kingdom, but by the
Norwegian people as a whole. Every
body, according to reports, looked
forward with pleasure and apprecia
tion to the intended visit of Gov
ernor Hanna and the state of North
Dakota is getting considerable ad
vertising on account of the visit, this
being the first visit of an American
governor while in office to a Scan
dinavian country. The governor will
present on behalf of the Norwegian
and other citizens of North Dakota a
statue of Lincoln to the government
of Norway. Governor Hanna's pop
ularity among the Scandinavians has
before been recognized, but his con
sent to make this long trip in the
midst of a political campaign in his
home state has gained him thousands
of friends among the Scandinavians.
The governor's family is in the party
of twenty now in Norway. It is pos
sible that he also will visit Sweden,
where he will be equally welcomed
by the people.

An international conference unique
in history convened in Christiania
recently when delegates from the
United States and Russia, Norway
and other Northern countries met to
frame a government for the world's
one country without a flag—the Spitz
bergen islands, commonly called No
Man's Island. William K. Collier of
New York and Fred K. Nielsen, as
sistant solicitor of the state depart
ment, are the American delegates. It
was not until the memory of men still
living that the island was found to
hold valuable coal deposits. It is de
void of vegetation and has little or
no animal life. During three months
of the year foreign coal miners work
the rich deposits. Throughout the
rest of the year silence reigns over
the frozen, rock-bound wastes.

3,200,000 crowns will scarcely do. The
exposition managers are already
