HUNGARIAN PREMIER
PLANNED COUP D'ETAT
Wanted to Restore Former Em
peror on Throne, Rumanians
Charge
Vienna, Oct. 17. (Ity A. P.) The
motive for the attempted arrest of Pre
mier Ktephau l'riedricli of Hungary b.v
Ilumanians on Monday was the discov
erq, it is said, that he wns planning a
coup d'etat with the object of placing
former Emperor Charles of Austria on
the Hungarian throne. This informa
tion is given in a Budapest dispatch to
the Ahendblatt.
Hungarian forces commanded by Ad
miral Horthy, former cominnnder-in-cliief
of the Austro-IIiingnrian navy,
were last week within one day's march
of lludapest, being brought forward un
der Premier 1'riedrich's orders, he hav
ing promised the Itumnuia commander-in-chief
that the Hungarian forces
would place King rerdlnnnd of Kuma
uia on the Hungarian throne, it is said.
The dispatch states that when it was
discovered the premier's real object was
to place former Emperor Chillies on the
throne, the Hiimnnlnii troops ceased
their withdrawal from lludapest nnd
ordered Admiral Horthy lo withdraw
his fniees.
Advices to the Associated Press from
liudapest say the ujrest of the premier
was prevented only ny American aim
