of the only assembly hall in Aspinwall,

little town today, closed all its stores,
obtained the arrest of the recal

name of many citizens of the town,

Washington, Oct. 25.-Sternly re
pwessivO censorship for the past two
weeks by the Austrian authorities has
failed to irevent the leakag# of re
ports to this country by cable of fierco
at tacks upon the government In the
reichrath by Czech leaders.
One of these, named Zocchickricch,
bitterly charged Premier Czernin
with being the v4ctiui of German
theorists who looked to world domin
ion and he declared that Austria
mi1ght have been s4yed all of her
p1resent misery had not the German
race which predominated In the gov
rinmient refused Serbia's proffered
Iconcessions. Count Czernin's peaco
suggestions were declared to have no
meanling whatever and he was re
proached for passing over in silence
the practical demands of the entente
espccially the guarantees for a gen
eral peace based on the recognition
of small nations as free and inde
pendent.*
