ANDRASSY, JULIUS, COUNT (1860-1929), Hungarian statesman, was born June 3o, 186o, the son of Count Julius Andrassy. He was elected deputy in 1885, and in 1906 became Minister of the Interior, in the so-called Coalition Cabinet. At the collapse of this Ministry in 1910, he refused to join the Khuen-Hedervary Government but declared that he would not actively oppose it, and dissolved the constitutional party, of which he was leader. In 1913 he delivered three speeches in the Hungarian Delegation against the conduct of foreign affairs, ad vocating a policy of European detente, and in parliament he opposed the plan for the centralisation of the internal adminis tration of Hungary. At the outbreak of the World War he sup ported the Tisza Ministry, but opposed Burian on the Polish and Italian questions. In 1915 he pleaded for peace, and urged a wide extension of the franchise. Upon the resignation of Burian in Oct. 1918, he became foreign minister in Vienna and, in a note to President Wilson, made a last attempt to conclude a separate peace. He then retired from office, but in Jan. 1920 was returned for Miskolcz to the Hungarian National Assembly and later became leader of the Christian National party. In Oct. 1921, at King Charles's second attempt to regain his throne, he was taken prisoner with the king and was imprisoned for several months. In 1922 he was returned to the Nationalist Assembly as a Legitimist deputy. He died June II, 1929.
