!l HONEST! NEVER AGAIN
FINALLY YIELD;
LEAVE SCUTARI
Ambassadorial Court Is Conven
ing for Decisive Session as the
Little Kingdom Gives Up.
CETTINJE, May 5.—After de.
fying the powers for a month,
King Nicholas to-day decided to
give up the citadel of Scutari.
Scutari was occupied by a Mon
tenegrin army on April 23, after a
siege lasting six months. During
the latter weeks of the bombard
ment the European powers re
peatedly warned Montenegro to
cease the cannonade.
Scutari will remain an Albanian
city.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, May 6.—Official an-
jiouncoment was made in the House
of Commons this afternoon by Pre
mier Asquith that the Ambassadors
had received a formal communica
tion from King Nicholas to the ef
fect that Montenegro has decided to
leave the disposition of Scutari to
the powers. s
“This decision on tin- part of King
Nicholas is satisfactory to the pow
ers.” said the Premier. “King Nicho
las is to be congratulated on this
welcome decision in both the interests
of Montenegro ana the peace of Eu
rope.”
A telegram from Cettinje said that
a ministerial crisis has been precipi
tated by the attitude of the Montene
grin Government toward Scutari and
that the resignation of King Nicholas’
cabinet had been given and accepted.
The downfall of the cabinet was
brought about by the rejection by
Crown Prince Danilo of the proposi
tion of the ministerial council that
Montenegro stand firm and even go
to war against Europe if that step is
necessary to retain Scutari.
The session to-day of the ambassa
dorial court was to have been one of
extreme importance, as the program
included final action on the altitude of
Montenegro.
A meeting of the National Parlia
ment of Montenegro has been sum
moned for May 8. when official sanc
tion will be given to any course adopt
ed by King Nicholas.
Plan to Divide Albania
Likely To Be Dropped.
PARIS, May o—Belief was ex
pressed in diplomatic circles to-day
that Austria and Italy soon will aban
don their plan to divide Albania.
Strong opposition to the plan comes
from Germany, which country con
siders the power of the triple alliance
would be considerably weakened in the
event of a general war. as the tvvj
powers would have to put armies into
Albania to maintain their interests.
According to the Austro-Italian
plan. Albania would be occupied by
troops of the two powers much th
same as England occupies Egypt.
Plan to Invade Albania
Not To Be Abandoned.
VIENNA, May 5.—Count VonBerch-
thold, the Austrian Foreign Minister,
announced to-day that the Austrian
Government had just received assur
ances from Montenegro that King
Nicholas would abandon Scutari un
conditionally.
This will not prevent Austria and
Italy from sending a military expedi
tion into Albania, it was said.

American Medicine, in Bitter Ed

Attitude Is Boorish.
NEW YORK, May .5. “This man
has outraged every sense of propriety
and abused in the most astounding
manner the courtesies and considera
tions extended to hint for the purpose
of proving the correctness of his
claims.
“His attitude from first to last has
been one of boorish disregard and
complete indifference to the feelings
of his colleagues. He has snubbed
and ignored the physicians—men of
high standing—delegated by the Gov
ernment to investigate the effects of
his treatment.”
The above is a part of an arraign
ment of Dr. Friedrich Friedmann, in
the current issue of American Medi
cine. The attack is contained in a
lengthy editorial and is the bitterest

to issue a statement regarding the
Friedmann treatment for consumption
have been futile.
Surgeon General Blue has told the

prepared to either allay optimism or

NEW HAVEN, May 5.—“A major

probably will never be given the bal

Taft, in opening his lecture course on
“Some Questions of Government.”
He said when the Constitution was
adopted a century ago, only about
one in 25 of the 1.500,000 people <.?
the country, including women and
children, were given the ballot. The
number has been constantly extended
until to-day about one in six has a

Should the electorate privilege h:*
extended by the admission of women,
only about 30 per cent would be given
the ballot, and It is not likely that a
majority of the people will ever be
accorded it.
Senate Committee to
Fight Wilson's Plans
for Currency Reform
Will Oppose Every Effort/to Rush
Through Administration
Bill.
WASHINGTON, Mas b. -The Seu-
ute* committee on banking and cur
rency Is unalterably opposed to a
number of the features of currency
legislation suggested by President
.Wilson gnd Secretary MoAdoo.
The members of the committee are
wide apart on what the law should
be, They say they do not intend to
be coerced or impressed into the
support of an Administration bill to
which they cannot give their adher
ence.
Practically the only conclusion
reached was that there should be no
legislation at this session of Con
gress.
A subcommittee consisting of Stem
atofs Owen. Hitchcock. Shafroth,
Bristow ana Weeks has drafted thirty
inquiries to be addressed to nromi-
nt-iH bankers and economists
throughout the country. Here are
some of the questions
“What are the essential defects of
our banking and currency system?”
“Should a new system include St site
as well as national banks?”
“Should (here be on** central re-
s* r\H association or a number, and if
the laifer. how many?”
“Should the A Id rich - Vreela nd act
lie extended after its expiration In
1914 if so. should it be amended?"
“Should* additional currency be pei -
manent or-temporary?”
“Should national banka be required
do keep their reserves in their own
vaults! and with their own reserve
association?’*'
“Should* the rate on discounts oe

be published weekly?”
