Austrians Quietly Oppose German War Policies

Berlin reports reveal Austrian sentiment that Germany’s conduct risks Austria’s future. Officials and Archdukes condemn the Kaiser and Prussian leadership, arguing Austria could secure better peace terms alone if forced to negotiate.

BARNEY CLARK FREED ON ACQUITTAL AFTER SECOND TRIAL

The Clark case ended at 11:30 Monday night with a jury acquitting after about an hour and a half deliberation. Five ballots were cast before the verdict. Clark, linked to the murder of Sol Hendra nearly seven years ago, had previously faced a first trial conviction and a 30 year sentence. The Supreme Court had vacated a prior new trial ruling, and public opinion suggested pardons might have occurred regardless of verdict. Humboldt Star report.
