SERVIA A CALDRON.
The Whole Country is Ripe For a
Revolution.

London, May 15-Prince Alexis Kar-
ageoreevitch may be placed on the
throne of Servia.
Servia is a caldron of discomfort. The
present dynasty exists on sufferance.
1t has endured till now only because
threatened institutions live long.
Prince Alexis is quietly making pre-
pafat1ons for a revolution. No lack of
funds hampers the SerVian claimant.
He is not one of those sovereign pre-
tenders, isolated and ignored, who drift
from one hotel to another with a long
title and a short purse. His crown was
hammered into shape years ago when
George Petravitch, better known as
"Black George headed the Servian
rising of 1903 and liberated the peas
ants from Turkish rule.
Kara George was my great-grand-
father and founder of the house of
karageorgevitch,'' he said. From 1904
to 1917 he reigned in Servia, when one
Milosch, a Servian pigkeeper in the pay
of Turkey, murdered his ruler and sent
his head to Mahmoud II, the sultan.
The pigkeeper. with Turkeys help, US
urped the throne and founded the pres
ent dynasty. the house of Obrenovitch.
Excepting for Is years, when Alex
ander 1, KarageOrgevitch, the second
son of Black George got back the
crown and held it, the princes of Kara
georgevitch have been eXiled.
ut is impossible for a Karageorge-
witch to reside in the country, although
within recent years Prince Bojidar, my
mission. 1 know my country'S feeling,
and believe that two-thirds of the peo-
pie are adherents to the KarageOrge-
witch party.
THE country is poor, the people
shepherds, peasants and farmers, the
present king a puppet of statesmen.
THE risk Prince Bojidar ran in visit
ing the kingdom in my interest has re-
stored the peoples confidence in the
house of Kara georgevitch Today, the
anti-dynastic party is ready to strike.
"A revolution would mean that the
country would be divided between Rus
STA and Austria. The two powers are
separated by conflicting interests, and
regard the royal houses of Servia with
divided affection. The Karageorge-
witch claim is favored by Russian
statesmen, and Russian grand dukes
count me as the representative of the
Servian crown whenever the Balkan
upheaval takes place. Austria upholds
Obrenovitch. Mr. supporters are more
restless today than ever
