It can now be foreseen that the widespread crop failures, the consequent famine and the relief work of the government and of philanthropists will be engrossing subjects in this empire during the approaching winter. The word famine is not used in the ofllcial publication, which speak of faminestricken districts as "places that are in an unfavorable condition as respects the harvests," but the facts that are freely admitted show that the struggle to keep the peasant population alive until a new harvest will be harder than has been known since lSLd-2. The extent of the disaster can be vaguely surmised from an inspection of the government irport which names the province of Viatka as among those where there was an insufficient harvest, and which gives the amount of governmental assistance required at 7S2.0OJ poods of rye. ZnngwHl Discusses Zlon Movement. NEW YORK, Oct. 14. The London correspondent of the Press sends the following interview with Israel Zangwill, of the Zion movement: "Israel Zangwill, the playwright-poet, concerning the coming conference of the Zionists in Basle, Switzerland, said: 'It is not impossible that Dr. Hochzl may have a great surprise for the world, to be annonced at that convention." He has been negotiating in person with the Sultan of Turkey for a charter for Palestine, and it is possible he has obtained that charter. It seems likeiy at any rate that the charter may be had before many months. Once the charter Is assured, much larger contributions should be obtained. We have at present about $1,000,(00, most of it from three or four subscribers, and after the charter is obtained and the money is raised the poor folk among the Jews will have a place of refuge at last." Economic Crliw Impending. LONDON, Oct. 15. In the course of a long description of the depression of trade in Austria and Hungary the Vienna correspondent of the Standard says: "There are fears of a serious economic crisis. The worst sign is the fact that the largest industrial undertakings in all branches have been compelled to resort to considerable reductions of establishment. The reasons given are the keen German competition and the withdrawal of credit owing to loss of confidence through the maladministration of large Joint fctock concerns. Dr. Von Korber, the premier, to-day (Monday) promised the presddtnt of the Vienna Chamber of Commerce that orders would be placed for large public works and that all available nuans would be employed to assist the suffering industries. Troops Heady for Emergency. LONDON, Oct. 14. The Pall Mall Gazette this afternoon says: "Orders have been received at Aidershot to hold every available man in readiness to proceed on active service.
