BELGIUM,
THE SUFFRAGE RIOTS.

BRUSSELS, April IA. - Disorderly
demonstrations were renewed ut Brus-
sells today. Strikers who left work as
a protest against the action of the
chamber of representatives rejecting
universal suffrage, paraded the streets
and twice came into conflict with the
police. Several persons were hurt.
The strikers ale gaining ground in
the district Mons, province of Hani-
naut, and more trouble is fofnenting
there. A battalion of infantry has
been sent to the town of Dour, nine
miles from Mons, where there is O
disposition to violence. At Quaregnos
the strikers are again violent, and at
Washes the situation has already as
sumed a dangerous aspect. Strikers
have been parading the streets armed
with spades and picks and attacked
and plundered number of houses
and wrecked the works of colliery.
AS their numbers increased they grew
more violent and aggressive, and at
the latest advices they threaten to cut
the telegraph wires and prevent the
news of their depredations being car
ried to the authorities. The greatest
anxiety prevails.
At meeting today of a COMMITTEE Of
the chamber of representatives APP
pointed to prepare revision of the con-
stitution, Jansen and Feron annouced
that they and forty other members
left would accede to the scheme of
Nyssen based on The principle of
plural voting. This would give
the government who. accept
Nyssen's scheme the requisite two
thirds majority for carrying the re-
vision of the constitution in the house
and thus solving the electoral prob
lem. 1t is hoped this may result in
calming the present agitation in favor
OF universal suffrage.

sERVIA.
TAKES UP THE scEPTRE.

BELGRADE, April 14.-A bloodless
coup de etat was effected here last
night. King Alexander, the youthful
ruler who has heretofore governed the
country through regents, today rules
in his own name. A grand banquet
was given at the palace last night.
The regents and,all ministers of state
were present, as were also large
number of the friends and supporters
of the regents. For many months past
the situation in Servia has been crit
ical owing to the abuse of power by
the regents and state officials. Affairs
had become so bad that the king de.
termined to take the reins In his own
hands. In accordance with this
were secretly laid. Unsuspectingly
the regents and ministers attended
the banquet and while they were en-
joying themselves at the palace de-
tachments of soldiers and bodies of
police took possession of the minister's
house and occupied the government
buildings. At midnight while the
festivities were still in progress King
Alexander proclaimed that he had at
Jdlucu Ills mdJoIiUy unu huu up5uLhOu
the government of the country. AS q
matter of fact the king has not at
tanned his majority. According to
Servian law he does not become of
age until eighteen years old
and as he was born August
IA, 1875, he will not be
18 for considerably over year.
Soldiers in waiting placed the regents
and ministers under arrest, and they
were sent to rooms which had been
prepared for them in the palace, where
they were under guard. The Servian
army is loyal to the king. Had it not
been the coup de exat would not have
been possible. Proclamation was
issued everywhere in the country
today bearing the kings signature.
M. Dakitch is the new premier.
Alexander appears to meet with the
of the populace.

PEARsALL, Tex, April 14.-Be-

Great Britain always eleyates to the peerage and handsomely pensions all who add to her power and prestige. If Grover Cleveland has not fairly earned both British peerage and pension, then never was one earned
