bued at this moment with inclinations
to glorify crowned heads.
The unrest that has kept Austria-
Hungary In suspense for two weeks
and that dictated Count Czernin's re
ply that was almost a plea has swept
across the borders Into Germany.
While In the Hapsburg Empire the
movement lacks leaders, because of
the multiple complexion both as to
races and ldeas, the German Social
‘luls are excellently led. They have
not yet made the clean-cut break;
they are still marking time, giving
the Government “a last chance.”
But the more radical factions, those
behind which Liebknecht, still in jall,
and Haase are the moving apirits, are
described in authentic dispatches as
ripe for large-scale risings. Riots
and demonstrations for peace are the
minimum occurrences predicted sot
tomorrow by those who know how
things look inside the empire.

Austria Is Compared
.
To Seething Cauldron
(By International News Service.)
A .\{STF'IU»A M, Jan. 26.—Dispatches
from Petrograd and Vienna continued
today to dwell on the strong possibil
ity of a separate peace between Aus
tria-Hungary and Russia.
Meanwhile, the Bolsheviki have
been authorized by the all-Russian
Boviet, which has finally been opened
to resume the negotiations at Brest-
Litovek. The sittings are scheduled
to reopen Tuesday.
Petrograd persists in disseminating
reports of the fast growth of Bol
shevism in Austria-Hungary. In Vi
enna, Budapest and Warsaw, one dis
patch sald today, Soviet organizations
have been formed to organize revolu
tions,
In view of the absolute lack of
foundation of the story credited three
days ago at Petrograd of an actual
Austro-Hungarian revolution and the
setting up of a “provisional! govern
ment,” these reports are treated here
with caution. Iverything indicates,
however, that the situation In the
dual monarchy resembles a siazling
cauldron, In some cities machine
guns had to be called on to silence
riotera, according to today's Vienna
advices
The all-Russian Soviet has ap
proved the Bolshevik decision to re
pudiate all of Russia’'s debts, Petro
grad dispatches stated.

to a conversation he had with H. A.
Chatham, bookkeeper of the Swift
Company. ‘
“He said the figures represented the
percentage of each one of the con
cerns represented In the National
Packing Company,” the witness testi
fied,
Then he read “A. (Armour), 29.266;
. (Cudahy), 10.00; M. (Morris),
14.983; 8. (Swift), 36.751; W. (Wil
son), 10.00.”
“Was this percentage used to de
feat unfriendly Congressmen?’ Com
‘missioner Davies asked.
~ “Yesn,” replled Mr. Heney, as the
‘witness nodded his head. ‘“We will
show how that was done in detail,
That was also the percentage used in
raising money fer other operations.
It covered the arrangements for the
purchasing of cattle along the zone
system and the division of business
where the companies operated.”
“Do you find any trace of packers'
ownership in American Tin?" (‘om
missioner Murdock asked the Gov
ernment investigator.
“Yes,” Mr. Heney answered.

“Well, if It ever reaches'a state of
absorption in the United States, it is
my opinion the packers will absorb
United States Steel,” the Commis
sfoner commented. |
“In Kansas City the street railways
are owned by the Armours, as my
evidence shows” said Mr. Heney,
“and In Detroit they reach ilnto the
banks, particularly through the ‘Dou

“Are you acquainted with Con

“Yes. In the summer of 1916 he
