AUSTRIA CONQUORS MONTE NEG.
rapt HIV of OcUJnJe, Ute Recent Sent
of Government, Announced.
London, Jan. 14.-Cettlnje, the
Montenegrin capital, has been taken
by the Austrians. It now seems In
evitable that Montenegro will expe
rience the fate that befell Serbia, as
there appears to be little to Interfere
with the speedy overrunning of the
remainder of the Montenegrin king
dom by the power of the Austrian ar
mies, which already have eaten deepr
ly into Montenegrin territory on the
north, east and southwest.
The fall of Cettlnje was seen only
to bo a question of time when the
Austrians took Mount Lovcen, the
dominating height nearby, and yes
terday it was announced that the
Montenegrins were prepnrlng to evac
uate the little city which had been
their seat of government.
The Montenegrin force that was
offering a desperate but hopeless re
sistance in the Lovcen sector, ls be
ing pursued, the Vienna official an
nouncement states. Its onlyavenue
of retreat seems to be into Northern
Albania, which ls hardly friendly ter
ritory owing- to the attitude of the
tribesmen there.

VON PAPEN PAPERS SEIZED.
Copies Transmitted by Great Britain
to tito United States.
London, Jan. 14.-Copies of cor
respondence seized from Franz von
Papen, recalled German military at
tache at Washington, when he reach
ed Falmouth on his way to Germany,
have been turned ?. vor to the Ameri
can embassy for u uismisBion to thc
State Department. They show that
Capt. von Papen mado frequent pay
ments to persons charged with the
responsibility for blowing up muni
tions works and bridges In tho Uni-,
ted States.
(?ave Money to Dynamiter.
One entry shows that Capt. von
Papen gave $700 to Werner Horn,
who was arrested In connection with
blowing up a Canadian Pacific rail
way bridge at St. Croix, Maine. The
day before this check was Issued the
German embassy paid $2,000 into
Capt. von Papen's account.
Among the letters taken from
Capt. von Papen there is little of In
terest with the exception of a letter
from thc German consul at New Or
leans condoling with him on his re
call from Washington and criticising
severely the attitude of the American
government.
Payments by Von Rciustorff.
Capt. von Papen's check stubs,
bank books and letters from his
bank, tho Riggs National Bank, of
Washington, D. C., show about f>00
Items, many of which had to do with
routine expenditures. Others, how
ever, revealed payments to various
persons Who have figured prominent
ly in the activities of Gorman agents
in America.
Several large payments were made
to Capt. von Papen by Count von
Bernstorif. Most of these were for
salaries or bonuses. A number of en
tries showed payments made by the
ambassador to the military attache
for "war Intelligence office." One
of the payments on this account,
made in October of 1914, was for
$2,300.
I In January, 1915, Capt. von Papen
gave a check payable to Ameick &
Co., .New York, but with the name of
E. Kuepferle in brackets on the stub.
This ls believed to have reference to
the man named Kuepferle, who, af
ter being arrested in England on a
charge of espionage, committed sui
cide, leaving a written confession in
his cell.
Explosion Followed Payment,
Another check stub shows that
about two weeks before the explosion
in Seattle on May 30, 1915, Capt.
von Papen sent $500 to the German
consulate at Seattle. In February of
1915 he sent $1,300 to the German
consulate hi that city. v
As an example of the size of the
captain's financial operations his
bank book shows that In January of
1915 he received approximately $0,
4 00, and paid out $5,000.
Consul Explains.
(Atlanta Constitution.)
Dr. Wilhelm Mueller, former Ger
man consul at Seattle, and now con
sul in Atlanta, stated that he had
received money from time to time
from the German embassy at Wash
ington, "and possibly from von Pa
pen," but declared that such money
was used for enabling German sub
jects to go from Seattle to New York
"on the chance that they might re
turn to Germany." The consul's
statement was made when he was
?shown London dispatches saying
that papers taken from Capt. Franz
von Papen, recalled German military
attache of tho German embassy at
Washington, showed von Papen had
sent $500 to the German consulate
at Seattle about two weeks before ah
explosion at Seattle on May 30 last.
"Any intimation that I was con
nected with any explosion at Seattle
is absolutely um-Minded," he declar
ed, accompanying the statement with
gestu res.
U. S. Xot Prepared.
Austin, Texas, Jan. 13.-"Let thos
men in Congress who are now con
demning President Wilson and de
manding that wo interfere in Mexico
realizo tho fact that tho United
States is wholly unprepared for war
with Mexico," said Governor Fergu
son In a statement to-day. "In the
present state of our army and navy it
will bo the wildest folly to attempt
the pacification of Mexico by force,
and yet, until conditions are improv

"Wo need not seriously concern

Governor concluded.

KNOWLEDGE ANO PRACTICE OF
CORRECT DAILY HABIT THE
GREAT ESSENTIAL.
Constipation ls a condition affect
ing all classes of all people and can
be permanently relieved only by ac
quiring habits of regularity.
Tho most natural time for the
eliminative process ls In tho morning
when both the muscular and nervous
systems aro relaxed by sleep and rost.
When relief does not come readily,
lt is an excellent plan to tako a mild
laxative at bedtime. Cathartics and
purgatives, that by tho vlolonce of
their quick action shook and disturb
the system, should not be employed.
An effective laxative remedy that
is very decidable, and which does
not gripe or otherwise disturb the
organs Involved, ls found in a com
bination of simple laxative herbs
known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pop
sin that can be bought nt the drug
store for fifty cents a bottle.
Mrs. C. C. Allen, 215 Foam street,
New Monterey, Calif., wrote to Dr.
Caldwell that she "found Dr. Cald
