PRAISE NEW AUSTR0 RULER AMSTERDAM, Nov.

22. What will be the effect of Emperor Francis Joseph's death upon the war? The press and public of all Europe, including the Central empires, resigning quickly to the long-expected demise of the aged Hapsburg monarch, which came last night, occupied itself chiefly with this question today. In Austria-Iungary and Germany, the leading newspapers hastened to affirm that the loss of the venerable ruler, whose powerful personality has been the main factor in holding together the various and manifold elements of the dual monarchy's "melting pot," will not alter the Teuton "will to win." Many columns of eulogy for his successor, Archduke Charles Francis Joseph, were printed. In the entente capitals, the main current of opinion on the whole coincided with that in the Teutonic empires, many-organs asserting that the dual monarchy is irretrievably "under the thumb" of Berlin, and that therefore, no change favorabie to the allies should be looked for. It was pointed out, however, by some editors, that the wife of Archduke Charles is an Italian.

Princess Zita of Parma, and wa-s brought up in Italy-Two of her brothers are serving in the Belgian army. Both recently received the war cross from President Poincare. DISCUSSED LN BERLIN. In Berlin, the possible political results of Francis Joseph's death were the subject of much discussion. Everywhere comment was heard upon the remarkable personality of the dead ruler in its hold on the affections and the imagination of the widely diversified races and languages in his empire.

It is said he had at his command no less than 22 languages and dialects. Certain it is that his long reign through many vicissitudes had endowed him with an extraordinary cosmopolitan sympathy and statesmanlike understand ing. How the young atchduke, whose character is not yet thoroughly known, will be able to fill the post so ably held by his uncle is the main topic of interest. Details of varied nature regarding the last hours of the aged ruler came in dispatches from Vienna tonight. Shortly after 9 o'clock last night the emperor, who had been resting more comfortably than in the afternoon, suddenly awoke, and made gestures pointing to his throat.

A second later he was dead. At his bedside were his daughter, Archduchess Marie Valerie; the heir to the throne. Archduke Charles Francis Joseph, and his consort; his nephew, Archduke Joseph Frederick, and leading members of his ministry. These included Baron Burian, the Austro-Hungarian foreign minister, arid Dr. von Koerber, the recently-appointed premier.

KAISER IS NOTIFIED. Immediately upon the monarch's death an adjutant hurried to the telephone linking Schoenbrunn castle with German army headquarters and informed Emperor William that the end had come. The kaiser, deeply shocked, at once sent a telegram expressing his grief and it is said made plans for immediate departure for Schoenbrunn. Both Emperor William and Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria are expected to arrive there tomorrow. Plans fcr the accession to the throne of Archduke Charles were still in formation to- ght.

An interesting sidelight on the old monarch's powers of resistance and his tenacity in clinging to the fading life is told in a Vienna dispatch, which says that last Saturday, when the turn for the worse manifested itself in a decrease of his appetite, the emperor drank as a tonic a glass of strong white wine and two small glasses of, champagne-. Then he smoked his usual cigar. A few hours before thi end came Francis- Joseph received the heir apparent. The two were closeted together for three-quarters of an hour. PNEUMONIA IMMEDIATE CAUSE.

The immediate cause of Francis Joseph's illness, which in his death. "Le Petit Parisien" learns, was a cold he contracted while promenading with the King of Bavaria In the park of Schoenbrunn castle. It developed nto pneumonia of the right lung. Archduchess Marie Valerie remained constantly at his side. She read the prayers for the dying when he passed away.

The news of the emperor's death stunned the people of Vienna. It was published about 11 o'clock by extra newspaper editions. All places of amusement were immediately closed. The first official announcement by any of Aus.ro-Hungarian embassies was made at Madrid early this morning. Fayette Celebrates Victory of Wilson UNIONTOWN.

"But certainly the insignificant errors in two precincts, discovered by Secretary of State Jordan, would not justify him as an administrative officer in permanently withholding the certificates of election of California electors and thereby depriving California of its vote in the electoral college. Such a proposition is too ridiculous to discuss." JUDGE HEAES CASE.

Open evenings. OBITUARY RECORD 1 1 to to at a A. of a a Federation Condemns Baker for Offering Arms to Boys and Asks Halt. GOMPERS IS REVERSED BALTIMORE, Xov. 22.

The convention of the American Federation of Labor today became an indignation meeting on the subject of military training in the public schools. Secretary of War Baker, who recently issued a circular to public school authorities. setting forth that military instructors, rifles and ammunition for school boys were to be had for the asking was the particular object of the delegates wrath. Not only was the position taken by President Gompera in the last convention re-ersed but two attempts by his 10 extricate themselves from an unpopular stand on the issue were voted down and President Wilson was called upon to see that the secretary of war takes no further steps in the matter. RESOLUTION ADOPTED.

Delegates from the painters introduced the following resolution: "Whereas, the secretary of war has communicated with the public school authorities in various parts of the country inquiring if they are willing to introduce military training af the boys in the schools, and stating that the war department would provide instructors and rifles and ammunition; and "Whereas, the American Federation of T-abor is utterly opposed to militarism, therefore be it, "Resolved, that this convention protests against the action of the secretary of war, and hereby instructs tine executive council of the American Federation of Labor to request President Wilson to prevent any further attempt to militarize the public schools." SUBSTITUTE IS OFFERED. Andrew Furuseth. chairman of the committee which had retported unfavorably on the resolution, tried to check the rising excitement among the radical delegates by offering a substitute resolution. This made no mention of military training, but stated that the federation was opposed to further increase in the standing army and insisted upon the constitutional right of all citizens to carry arms, despite the laws of various states. Furuseth indicated that he considered military trainings valuable to the workers in case of strikes.

"The children of the master class will le trained in the use of arms, and you cannot, help it," he said. "I'm astonished at you revolutionary Socialists, that you want to strip the worker of arms and deprive his children of training in the use of arms." GETS LITTLE SUPPORT. Except for the chairman and secretary of the committee, no one defended the unfavorable report on the resolution and, after the motion to refer the whole subject to a special committee had been defeated, 84 to 185, the delegates rejected- the committee's report and indorsed the painters' proposal. Following the settlement of this test of strength, the convention adopted unanimously a proiposal that a special committee be named to report on all other phases of the "preparedness" and "militaristic" situation. William Green of the United Mine Workers was named as chairman of this committee.

The other members are Baine of the Boot and Shoe Workers, Frey of the Mold-ers, Scharrenburg of the Seamen, Woll of the Photo-PIngravers, Murray of Los Angeles and Hill of Little Rock, Ark. Four of these believe with that the labor movement should be to defend itself against armed attacks in time of strike. State Suffragists1 Convention Opened WILLIAMSPORT. Nov. 22.
