ranged that the Paris Salon this spring Is to oc-
cupy its old quarters In the Palals de rIndusrie
instead Of being relegated- TO some temporary shell
ter. But during the three years that follow. the

In order to understand the Ministerial crisis that
has taken place at Belgrade during the last week,
II must be explained that the Novakovitch Admin
istration longer commanded majority in the
Legislature, and in as blind and abject devotion
to Russia had mperilled the relations OF Servia
