Show Disi'ATi iiks from Vienna are so meagre as to leave the result of the very important Austrian elections concluded yesterday in doubt. They announce that tho (ierman liberals and the young Czechs have made great gains. The latter is a now party which started with a few dissenters from the liohemians because tho latter were too moderate and conservative. The young c.echs stand for full autonomy of the Hoheiniau crown lands. Hut the old c.echs ami tiie young c.echs are both hostile to the (iernians, and if tho latter nevertheless neverthe-less make heavy gai'ns, the question is where? If in Bohemia then the demand of the young c.echs will uot be granted, or if through tho rest of the empire then tho life of tho Taake cabinet is threatened. Curious enough, however, tho dispatches read as if Taake, tho (iernians, and tho extreme nationalists, hostile elements all, had each been victorious. |
