April 9. The Victor Talking Mnchlno Company cannot flx trlccs and refuse actual sale of Its patented machines. The Supremo Court refuped today to grant nn Injunction against II. II. Mncy & Co., alleged by the Victor company to havo Infringed patent rights. Tho decision rovcrsed tho New York Court of Appeals. Justices Holmes, McKcnnn and Van Devnntcr filed n dissenting opinion. No Jail sentences will result from alleged election frauds In tho First and Second Congressional Districts of Rhode Island, or tho Senatorial primary In West Virginia, according to a decision of the court. They held that prosecutions for fraud In the elec tion of United States Senators and Repre sentatives must bo pressed under State nnd not Federal laws. Oregon's minimum wage law for women and children was declared constitutional. Tho law gives an Industrial welfaro com mission power to fix minimum wages and proscrlbo working conditions and hours of labor. Constitutionality of tho Oregon ten-hour law was upheld In tho case of Franklin O. Bunting, a Lako County manufacturer. Chief Justico Whlto and Justices Van Devnntcr nnd McReynolds dissented. Justice Bran dels, who was an attorney In the case, took no part. Tho United Statos Government lost Its guardianship ovcr'inlxcd-blood Indians of tho Whlto Earth Reservation, Minnesota, when tho Clapp amendment, giving tho In dians their land In fee simple, was enacted, tho Supremo Court held. A person who conspires to defraud when uso of tho malls Is necossary for tho com pletion of tho alleged fraud, but who nclthor malls tho fraudulent matter nor has It mnllcd by an agent, Is guilty of nn of fenso under tho postal laws, tho Court de cided. Appeals of Alexander M, Emerson nnd Alfred P. Lowell, Massachusetts militiamen, who refused to take tho Fedoral oath under tho national defense law. wero denied. They asked dismissal of tho case. Austria Breaks Ties With United States Continued from Tare One war can long bo averted. Austrian sub marines havo been nnd aro active In tho Mediterranean. It is only a question of a short tlmo, officials say, when they will torpedo somo vosscl without warning on which somo passengors are Americans or in the crew nnd that such action will bo ncccpted by this Government as nn net of war. Some pfllclals, Indeed, professed to believe that Austria would herself do claro war on tho United States as her reply to tho action of this Government In lining up with tho Kntento. For the Im mediate present, officials said, they ex pected tho status 'would contlnuo one of broken diplomatic relations. So far as tho Btutus of Turkey and Bul garia was concerned, officlnln hero frankly said that they wero puzzled. It Is con ceded that both nations are dominated by Germany and will do whatever Berlin sayB. Howovcr, Bulgaria has no navy nnd no submarines, while the Turkish submarines are a very negligible quantity. Some Stato Department officials said that they did not expect cither Bulgaria or Turkey to take action at present. Tho Austrian embassy told tho State De partment that It was very likely that the Swiss Government would bo naked to take over Austrian affairs In this country. The taking over of the duty of caring for many thousands of prisoners of war that aro held In Hungary presents a very serious problem, officials say. In this work Ambas sador Penflcld has been very successful and his work has been appreciated by all of tho nations directly concerned. Tho Stnto Department Is still In the dark regarding what actually happened In Vienna. The only word that It had was a five-word cable bulletin from Minister Stovnll, which read an follows: "Itelntlons with Austria broken yes terday." Tho cable was dated at Berne this morn ing, although somo officials suggested that It might really refer to Saturday as the time. Tho department Is making an effort to get Into touch with Stovall to obtain alt details and nlso to find out how tho American representatives arc to be gotten out of Austria. One complication that will result from the break will bo the fact that it will put Arauassauor j,;hus at Constantinople virtu ally out of communication with this city. Whllo communication with him has been slow, it has been steady through Vienna. Because of the apprehension that has been felt for tho safety of Americans In certain outlying portions of Turkish territory, tho cutting off of Vienna as a point of com munication Is admittedly n serious develop ment. State Department officials took Instant steps to get tho Austrian diplomatic and consular representatives out of this coun try. The British and French Governments will be asked to afford the same safe-conduct to them as prevailed when Count von Bernstorff and his party wero sent home. The department will endeavor to have the Scandinavian-American Lino accept tho offi cials as passengers, and will-also endeavor to arrange to have the search of tho party made at Halifax Instead ot Kirkwall. So soon as Baron Zwiedlnek returned to tho embassy he and the members of his staff commenced packing up to leave tho country. Telegrams were sent to all Austrian con sular agents directing them to get ready to leave. At tho same tlmo a secret servlco guard was provided for tho embassy and tho officials will bo protected day and night until they actually are out of the country. KAISER FORCED AUSTRIA TO BREAK WITH AMERICA LONDON, April 9. Austria! decision to break with the United States was reached at the confer, ence of the two Emperors and officials of the two nations at German great head quarters recently, a dispatch from Milan stated today. Tho newB of America's action was re ceived while the Emperors were In con ference. Emporor William Is understood to have Insisted that Austro-Hungary Imme diately sever relations with the United States and thereby demonstrato that she would stand by her ally. Emperor Karl is reported to have been very reluctant to glvo the order for the break. Tho entrance of the United States In tho war has made, a strong Impression In Aus tria, as may be judged by this comment in the Ilelchpost, which reached, here today: "Already the territory of 'our enemies previous to American Intervention was twelve times the area of the Central Powers and the enemy population was five times our own. All the money in tho world outside of the Central Powers Is now at the disposal of the Entente and they command the In dustrial and agricultural wealth of the en tire gloDe." - FURNITURE STORE ROBBED Steal f 25 From Cashier's Drawer, but Fail in Attack on Safe Cracksmen broke Into the' furnltum tnr. of Stem Co., 712 Market street, through a back door sometime between Saturday night and' this'' morning, stolo about I2S In cash from a cashier's drawer, and tried to saw open the bis fa bqt .were balked by ite ( and etrenfftn. t o '. to Huatecin the rear of . the immtnuiMrWMklUil SOCIETY .WOMEN iiP Xmm - '' iiiiiiiiiHiiiiiiHIII!CV ?

Tho total Included ten Englishmen and ono Turk. Somo of the Camden applicants had lived In this country twenty-flvo years without seeking naturalization. They seek citizen ship for business reasons, they said. Twelve Englishmen, flvo Italians, four Russians, one Turk and ono Norwegian made declaration for first papers in tho Federal Court of Philadelphia.

Richard Olney, noted stntesmun and Sec retary of Stato under Grovcr Cleveland, died suddenly In his home In the Back Bay section, It became known today. Tho cause of tho death of Mr. Olney, who was eighty two years old, Is not known. Mr. Olney was a. man of wide culture and great legal talent who supported Demo cratic policies. Ho was a friend of Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard. University, nnd Joined him with trenchant tonguo and facile pen In answer ing attacks on tho Wilson Administra tion. Although having a brilliant record of hervico under President Clovelnnd. where he senod in tho Cabinet as both Attorney General and Secretary ot Stato, Mr. Olney declined offers of public ofllce from Presi dent Wilson nnd contented himself during the last few years .with advocating Im portant changes, such as Federal control of the railroads. REFUSED HIGH OFFICES Among tho important offices he refused to accept from tho Wilson Administration were those of Ambassador to England and that of governor of tho Federal Reserve Board. Advanced ago was ono of the rea sons given for both of these declinations, although he himself said at tho time that public positions would restrict his activity in uuii-i uui'a. Perhaps the greatest slnglo achievement for which ho Is remembered Is his settle ment of the controversy with England oer the Venezuelan boundary whllo Secretary of State. Tho crisis was acuta and for a time war threatened, but the firm stand taken by Secretary Olney and the favorable final settlement effected by tho Commission prevented hostilities. It was In this caso that Mr. Olney laid down tho law that tho right of tho United States to Intervene on questions Involving territorial Integrity of South American countries was unquestioned. His firmness also In settling the great railroad strike 'of 1894 Is well remembered, for It was he, as Attorney General, who upheld the right of tne uovernmenl to employ troops to quell the disorder. Mr. Olnoy was bom In Oxford, Mass., In 1835 and was graduated from Brown Uni versity when only tweaty-one, completing a law course at Harvard three years later. xie eany cnierea politics, oeing elected a member of the Massachusetts Houso of Rep resentatives in 1874. He was nominated for Attorney General of the State In tho Tllden flght of 1876. His offices under President Cleveland completed his active offlceholdtng, although he later was of Invaluable 'assist ance to the Democratic party In matters requiring expert advice. He, also received a few votes for the presidential nomina tion at the 1904 convention. Mr. Olney was a regent of the Smithson ian Institution, a member of the Massa chusetts Historical Society and ot tha American Philosophical Society. He was exceedingly fond of outdoor exercise up to the time of his death, and was accustomed to taking long walks or horseback rides up to a few years ago.

RANK OF GENERAL TO BE GIVEN TO CHIEF OF STAFF WASHINGTON, April 9. An Important amendment to the nrmy appropriation bill recommended by the Senate Military Com mittee today provides sweeping changes In tho higher ranks of ofllcers In the army.

Tho latter grade Is wiped out by the amendment. Traffic Men Needed in War or Peace No matter what emcrttency arises, trained traffic men are a necessity.

CAPTAIN IS MISSING Interned Austrian Steamship Third Teuton Prize of War on Delaware The Interned Austro-Hungnrlan steam ship Franconla wai seized today by the United States Mmultancously with the re port that Austria-Hungary had severed dip lomatic rclatloni with this nation. Thn dlKnnnenrance of the commander. Captain N. Bndos, and tho smashing of the engines, exactly as the Hamburg-American liners Prlnz Oskar nnd lthactla were dam aged, was revealed when custom officials boarded tho vessel nt Its pier at Port Rich mond. , The remaining crew of five was taken prisoners and transported to the Immigra tion station at Gloucester, N, J. Captain llados cannot bo found. Last Friday ho called on Collector Berry and told him ho would bo away for a few days because ho wanted to spend the Eastor holidays in Washington. There was no way the Collector could detain him "I wouldn't even havo wantod to," said tho Collector and tho Captain went' blithely nway. Ho hasn't returned nnd Is hardly expected. Mr. Berry was aked If ho thought tho Austrian captain would come hack nnd answered that his guess was no better than that of anybody else. Tho officials James M.

Until It is decided what to do with the Germans, It wns said, their status Is that of alien Immigrants, and they are being kept ns such at tho detention station at Gloucester.

Tho hear ing will bo held before a special board of Inquiry, consisting of United States Inspec tors. In tho meantime the German sailors, together with their commanders. Captains Muetzell and Maas, appear reconciled to their lot. They havo made no trouble for the Immigration authorities, officials .said.
