SORROW COMES
UPON GREECE
Prince Constantine Palls by Hand
of Assassin While Attend
ing" War Maneuvers.
___
By Cable to T'io Dally Gateway.
At liens, Greece, Oct. 7—Prince Con
stantine was assassinated yesterday
while attending the war maneuvers.
The review and the maneuvers of the
army had attracted a great concourse
of people, and while Prince Constan
tine was intently observing the move
ments of the troops and unsuspecting
any danger the hand of the assassin
took his life. Instantly upon the com
mission of the deed the whole com
pany was thrown into confusion and
the greatest excitement prevailed.
War Clouds rising
London. Oct. 7—The second step in
the threatened European war move
ments will he taken when Emperor
Joseph of Austria announces the an
nexation of Bosnia, a Turkish province
including Herzegovinia. The Euro
pean powers will he unable to render
I aid to Turkey.
Japanese YY'isdom
Japan continues to give lessons in
public wisdom and prudent statesman
ship. She was too wise to press her
enormous advantages in the war with
Russia to an unsafe extreme. She is
now too wise to persist in naval under
takings that were found to be strain
ing her resources too severely. The
temptation to such undertakings, after
her triumphant reception into the
circle of great powers, three years ago,
was strong enough to overcome pru
dence for a time, and to draw her into
the navv-building competitions of that
circle; but there is too much sanity in
the brain of the little brown men to
allow them to ruin themselves in a mad
race. They withdraw from its lists,
bv announcing a reduction of $75,000,
000 from the programme of naval and
military expenditure which the gov
ernment had planned.—J. N. Larned
