MAGYAR MONARCHISTS

Significant Deputations to L Spain the - various © reports ure reliable, Count Julius' Andrassy will: travel. within: the next.few days to Lequeitio, in: Spain, in order to pay his respects to the ex-Empress Zita and her children on behalf of the. Hungarian Legitimists, -writes the' Vienna correspondent of the "Observer." He will be accompanied by other..." leaders of that party, and' the. issue of his journey is declared to be of great importance. Count Albert Apponyi, whois on a lecture tour in the United States, is also due at Lequeitio in a few days. Although Count Mikes, the Bishop of Steinamanager, _Who took an active part in the Karl-putsch, denies the rumour, he, too, is expected in Spain™ about the same time.

The Hungarian Legitimists want to proceed unanimously, it is alleged, because efforts are being made by the Monarchists of other countries, Austria in particular, to play first fiddle at. the "Court" and to push their own ideas in the political education of the "young King" Otto. From another source it is gathered that recently the members of tha Hapsburg ex-dynasty took an oath of allegiance to "King Otto."

Thus the conclusion is drawn that the Magyar Legitimist. aristocrats will attempt to checkmate the influence of the Austrian Monarchists, and they. intend Otto to be trained in Hungarian political law and history. A Hungarian aristocrat, who would be called to Lequeitio, is to supervise the education of the "King."
