KING ALFONSO IN AUSTRIA

King Alfonso has recently, I am informed, had the experience of being refused permission to cross the Austrian frontier.

On being asked at the frontier post, at Halbthurn, for his pass port, he replied: "I am a fugitive and do not possess one.".

Later he said he had left it be hind.
