Reports of Riots in Vienna Lower
Crown Value on Bourse;
Hindenburg Controls.
London, Jnn. 17. (L N.-S.) Reports
of crave riota In Vienna have resulted In
an unprecedented shrinkage of the value
of the Austrian crown on the Dutch
bourse, said an Amsterdam dispatch to
the Express today.
Dutch - bankers also have reports of
serious trouble brewing between Vienna
and Berlin, as Austria wishes an Im
mediate statement of peace terms as the
only step conducive to negotiations.
, Germany Is now under the thumb of
Von Hindenburg, who wishes to await
the result of the western offensive, in
hope of forcing harsher terms, it was
stated.
It Is now understood that the recent
visit of Baron Burian, the Austrian for
. sign minister, to Berlin was mostly de
voted to the peace alms problem. The
Vhortneu of the trip indicated that he
found the Germans obedient to Hinden
burg's voice.
The political crisis In the dual mon
archy continues. The Polish party,
having a majority, Is said to have com
pelled Premier von Seydler to hand in
! his resignation again. If the emperor
. does not accept It, the Austrian govern
ment will have to refrain from assem
bling parliament. The position of the
government Is seriously menaced, as It
Is difficult toilnd a new premier sanc
tioned by Germany.
The crown is the standard gold coin of
Austria and, before the war, was valued
at about 20 cents In ' United States
.money.
