It was a bottle of stomach bitters. I lay off the city throughout the night with big shells roaring through the air with a sound like a, distant express train and the heavens rosy with the reflection of burning petrol tanks and dwellings. Unless a miracle happens tomorrow, the morning's sun will shine on the German flag floating over Antwerp. 'King of ICouiuania Does Xot Have , to Give HJs Word to Anyone," Kcply or Minister to Jlequest for Mobilization, AMSTERDAM. Oct. 10, via London. A telegram received here from Vienna says that King Charles of Roumania died today. His illness had heretofore been reported as grave. King Charles of Roumania was a member of the House of Hohenzollern. At the beginning of the war he .was inclined to side with Germany and Austria-Hungary and was reported as ready to cast his lot with these coun tries, but such a course encountered strong opposition in Roumania and par ticularly in the Legislature. Recent dispatches have said that the King, be cause of a promise he had made to Ger many, desired to mobilize the Rouman ian army to assist Germany in the war. Word of Ilohrnzollcrn Given. It has been said on many occasions In the last few weeks that Germany counted on the intervention of Rou mania. A-story published in Paris the latter -part of September related that when King Charles asked the Cabinet to order a. mobilization of the army, one of the Ministers replied: "We are quite willing if it is against Russia." King Charles turned to him and said: "I gave my word to Emperor Wil liam, and a Hohenzollern keeps his word." The president of the council here in terposed, saying: "The country knows no Hohenzol lern. It knows only the King of Rou mania, who does not. have to give his word to anyone whatsoever." Council Not for Germany. King Charles then decided to call a council of the crown with the ex Ministers in attendance, but only one sided with him with Germany. It is reported that the King tried to psrsuade General Averesco to attempt a coup Tetat and arrest the Minister, but General Averesco refused, saying: Sire, you would be the first victim of such an attempt." Charles I was Roumanla's first King. He was the son of I'rince Charles An thony of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. AMiile Charles was serving at 27 as an officer of the Prussian Guard, the Turk ish provinces of Wallochia and Moldalra united and called themselves Roumania, and Charles was called to govern them as Prince. He began from the first a policy of planting the seeds of German civilization in Roumania. Turks Defeated In 187G. In the Turko-Russian War in 1876 Charles insisted on neutrality, but when the Russians were on the point of being .crushed at Plevna and Grand Duke Nicholas sent liis famous call for help, the Roumanian forces were led to bat tle and, with Charles at their head, decisively defeated the great Turkish army. The renown of Prince Charles spread, snd four years later, out of a cannon ha had captured at Plevna, the Rou manian people cast him an iron crown. With consent of the powers they Placed it on his head In 1881. From this time on King- Charles was uni versally acknowledged the leader of his adopted people, and the kingdom of Roumania became a factor in inter national politics. The one blot on the escutcheon re cently has been an alleged widespread persecution of the Jews, of whom there are some 700,000 scattered among the 7.000,000 inhabitants of the country. By ourselves Alone" Is Motto. "By ourselves alone" are the words which ornament the iron crown King Charles has worn. Ho was never a par ty to International alliances, although groups represented in both the Triple Alliance and the Triple Kntente have been said to be courting Roumanian support. The prospect of the country when Prince Charles entered Roumania was discouraging in every detail. That which he hands over to his successor, whom he adopted in the person of his nephew. Prince Ferdinand, is one which includes an efficient army of nearly half a million when on war footing, agriculture developed along modern lines, oil production on a vast scale, railways spread widely, foreign com merce developed to a degree which ex ceeds that of all other Balkan states put together, and a national credit that needs no special guarantees. BREADSTUFF RISE HALTED Austria Forbids Use of Corn and Po tatoes by Liquor Men. VENICE, via Paris. Oct. 10. The repeated efforts of the Austrian gov ernment finally have persuaded the Hungarian Cabinet to consent to a suspension of the import duties on cm in. but as ar partial concession to the Hungarian agrarian interests, it is understood the government will not attempt to fix any scale of maximum prices for the grain market. The spirit manufacturers have" been forbidden to use corn and potatoes and must therefore use sugar beets and molasses as substitutes. It is hoped that these measures will tend' to prevent a further Increase in tlie price of breadstuff, as the rise which thus far has occurred already is causing much hardship among the poor.

The PAPAL SECRETARY DEAD PERITONITIS IMMEDIATE CAUSE, AFTER PROTRACTED ILLNESS. Prelate, Surrounded by Kaltbful Friends, Is Conclusion to ast. Pope Muarns Loss. ROME, Oct. 10. Cardinal Dominic Ferrata, the cardinal secretary of state, died today. The immediate cause of the death of Cardinal Ferrata was peritonitis, an outcome of his protracted illness. Be cause of this peritonitis, it was con sidered imprudent to operate. The death of the cardinal was not unexpected. The news was conveyed to the Pope by telephone and his com ment was "God's will be done, but it takes from me a dear friend and my right hand." The Pope immediately retired to his private apartments, where he prayed for the repose of the soul of the departed cardinal. The secretary of state passed away surrounded by faithful friends. He was conscious to the last moment. His last remark was: "I am so tired: I go to join my saviour." Cardinal Ferrata was stricken with appendicitis soon after his appointment by Pope Benedict on September 4 to the office of papal secretary of state. The cardinal was born at Montefias cone, tlaly. In 1847. He was the papal legate to the World's Eucharistic Con gress at Malta in 1913. Cardinal Fer rata was an archpriest of the patriarchal late ran arch-basilica. He was created and proclaimed a cardinal June 22, 1896. For six years he was papal nuncio at Paris and later was prefect of the Congregation of Bishops in Rome.
