ROM ft Juno 12. King Emanuel held
rifcrcnces today with the leaders of
the rariouB pttrtfes, regarding the form
iiiton of, n new cabinet.
liOME, June 12. Tho Salandra Cabinet
rt&lRtiecl yesterday n a result of the re
fusal of the Chamber of Deputies to trrnnt a
vote of confidence In the afternoon. The
official flBiirea of the vote were 19.1 against
6 Government to 1 4 3. supporting It.
The crisis had been expected because of
tho" suspicion In the Chamber that the Clov
'eVnmont'a reticence was an attempt to
evade Parliamentary control.
Tho Dftlcl.it announcement that tho Cab
inet had resigned nns mado following tho
atrtval of the King from tho front. The
prevailing Impression In Rome Is that the
crisis will bo solved within n couple of days
and that the Salandra Cabinet wltt return
to power, after It has been strengthened.
All parties agree that tho new ltallnn
Cabinet must Imvo a national chnractor. It
Is suggested that it will comprise all the
leading statesmen with a view to uniting
lit tho supreme strughlo all political opin
ions except that of the Intransigent So
cialists, about forty of whom opposo the
war as a principle. From all sides n rapid
solution of tho crlnln Is urged owing to the
gravity of. the moment.
King Victor Emmanuel, who has already
returned to ltomo from tho lighting front,
.besides consulting Antonio Salandra, tho
resigning I'rcmlor, will seek the views of
Unroll Sonnlno, tho Foreign Jtlnlster. tho
presidents of the Senate and tho Chamber
of Deputies and the wearers of the collar
of tho Order of Annunzlata, Including ox
JPremlcrs Gtollttl and Luzzatti.
TASK TO PALI. ON SONNINO.
It has been suggested that Foreign Min
ister Sonnlno bo Intrusted with the .task of
fqtmlng a now Cabinet, but by somo prom
inent In political llfo tho opinion Is ex
pressed that tho voto In tho Chambor of
I'eputlca affected Baron Sonnlno as well as
Premier Salandra. Others mentioned as
possibilities nro Tommnso Tlttonl,1 Italian
1 Ambassador to France, and several leaders
In. Parliament.
Although tho situation of tho Ministry
1 elnco tho Austrian advance on May 14 has
been somewhat precarious, no one expected
tho sudden adverse voto In tho chamber
yesterday, which followed Immediately on
admission that the Austrlans had .been nblo
to pbtaln Initial successes which might, per
haps, have been nvoldcd by tho local com
mand on tho Trentlno front.
T,hls allusion to tho deficiency In tho com
mand frvm Which Generals Brusatl and Do
Chaurand were recalled, caused animated
comments In tho chamber. '
KJtDES A FISH TO DEATH
PARTITION OF SERBIA
NOT TEUTON PURPOSE,
BELIEF OF APPONYI
Hungary's Foremost Statesman
Thinks Only Strategic Posi
tionsVill Be Kept if Cen
tral Empires Win"
PiEACE NOT FAR DISTANT
1.
i By CARL W. ACKERMAN -
BUDAPEST, Juno 1 (Via Berlin, delay
d), "I do not look for tho annexation ot
any largo part of Serbia by Austria-Hungary,"
declared Count Albert Apponyl,
opposition leader In tho Ilungarlnn Parlia
ment, in an exclusive inters lew tridny.
"Only strategic; positions must remain In our
hards."
Count Apponyl Is often' called tho "great
est stateman of Hungary." Ills statement Is
Important not only because It is tho first
publlo utterance by a leading stntcsman
of the dual monarchy on the Balkan ques
tion, but because It gives the world an
Idea ot what Hungarians believe should
be done with Serbia at tho end of tho war.
It la their Idea that Austria-Hungary should
retain Btrateglo points that will prevent the
Balkans from again kindling a world war.
"I personally do not believe that the
.Karageovltch dynasty which formerly ruled
Serbia should return," continued Count
Apponyl, "The Karageovltch. rulers organ
ized permanent conspiracies against our
safety, culminating in tho assassination nt
Sarajevo of the Archduke Ferdinand, the
act that precipitated tho war, We cannot
tolerate such rule again. Furthermore,
Bulgaria, and Greece must be constructed
Into efficient powers. Bulgaria must obtain
her rights In Macedonia."
Count. Apponyl believes .peace Is not far
dlBtant.
"Before there can, be effective steps to
bring peace thero must be falsq steps,"
, hef said. "This period we ore passing
through now. Tho success of mediation does
not hinge upon the personality of tho
inejliator, but upon the, spirit In which
mediation1 la'offered. Those hao been con
.slilcred as possible peacemakers President
Wilson, Popo Benedict, the Kfng o'f Spain,
And the Queen of Holland are all wel
come as peacemakers, provided they bring
eal fairness and Impartiality and advo
cate; terms which can be accepted without
our renouncing the necessary aims of de
fensive warfare. Tha$ means that we must
have effective guarantees for the future
safety of Europe.
'There la. no doubt that we can hold out
until the .coming: harvest. Tjie'n the eco.
nomta situation will be completely altered,
making it .evident that we cannot be
starved 'Into surrendering. I do not think
cur enemies any longer entertain hopes of
mjlltary successes. When they are' con
vinced of the efficiency of the economlo
measures we have taken, too, then the
tim will be, ripe for peace."
Mnn Keeps His Prize Dcspilo State
Game Wardens
APPIiETON, Wis., June 12. Hiding a
fish and killing It la not catching It. Such
is tho decision of the Stale Game Wardens
In tho case of Hiram Beverldgo.
Tho water In tho Fox Itlver has been low
of late and Hiram saw a six-foot sturgeon
In a' shallow pool below the John street
dam. He tried to catch It by tile tall but
failed. Then ho Jumped nnd landed on Its
brtck. It was worso than riding a bucking
broncoj but ho seized a stone when the
fish was floundering In shallow water and
beat it tn death.
Hiram's knees were scraped raw and his
legs tut, but he got 70 pounds of fish nnd
furnished the basis for a now legal do
clslon to ring down the ages.
