st. Louis, June 1.-THE situation IN
East ST. Louis remains about the same
as last night. The flood on the south is
still being held back at Missouri ave-
nue.. The night was cold and there
was considerable suffering as a result
among the thousands Of homeless. The
river fell but fraction of an inch dur.
ing the night.
The lack of drinking water is one OF
the worst inconvenience suffered By
East st. Louisians. Many of them are
compelled to drink the water that sur
rounds them on all Sides Musch sick
ness is likely to result If this continues.
Congressman Rodenberg, who has
charge of the rescue work, in East st.

with boats thru the submerged dis
tricts. taking people off from the sec
ond stories and roofs, of houses, and re-
moving them to places of safety.
East st. Louis, June 11-Chief OF
Police Purdy today said that not one

DETAILS OF ASSASSINATION.
Queen Drasa and Her Sisters Struck
Down With an Ak.

Berlin June 11.-A dispatch from
Sen1lin, hungary, to the National Eel
tung gives an interesting version of the
events at Belgrade. 1t says: "A party
OF officers proceeded TO the palace by
previous arrangement with General
Ljubasivkovics and called upon King
Alexander to abdicate in favor of
Kara georgeyitch. The king refused and
shot Col! Naumovics, who made the pro-
posal. The other officers thereupon
summoned the war minister. General
Payloyitch and Tudorovics the kings
aide de camp, and other loyal officers.
The leader of the actual assailants was
Lieut. Col Mischief. VINO himself mur-
dered the queen. The latter, together
with her brother and sisters. was
struck down with an AK. The queen
died Immediately. The king lived a

PARIS is STARTLED.
Officials Say il Is Too Soon to caIcu-
late Effect on Europe,

Paris, June 1l.--The startling an
| nouncenent of the aSsassna tion of the
king and queen of servia caused deep
| sensation here, particularly in govern
mental circles. Officials OF the foreign
office say it Is too soon to indicate
clearly TIE effect OF the situation in
Servia on the European situation. Ser
Was dynastic troubles have been long
! impending the present uprising being
| due to the animositieS growing out OF
the propaganda of the pretender Kara
georgevitch. Il is recalled when the
Karageorgevitch dynasty secured q
brief rule in 1865, the European powers
| intervened and established protecto-
rate and thus terminated that dynasty
| Whether there will be similar action
of the powers at this time officials are
| unwilling to predict, saying the shock
of the tragedies is principally occupy
ing attention. 1t is generally believed
the assassinations are the sequel to
the kings coup d'etat two months ago,
when he suspended the constitution, re-
| suting in the disgrace and retirement
of a number of senators and leading
officials.
Paris, June ia French govern
ment official today said: THE bloody
deeds of last night at Belgrade is
the most pressing menace to the gener-
al peace of Europe that has happened
in many years.
Alexander l., who succeeded to the
throne under q regency, which he soon
after dismissed and assumed the full
powers of royalty, has been decidedly
unpopular king. His abrogation of the
!cld constitution Of Servia and the proc
lamation of the new constitution of 1901
added to his unpopularity and came
near causing a revolution. An attempt
at revolution was made, but failed. A
manifestation of students In favor of
greater liberty was punished with great
severity at the same time and added
fuel to the hatred borne him by his
people. The mixed population of Bull
garians, Greeks and Albanians, differ
ing more or less on questions of relig-
lion, We're not to be controlled by Alex
ander, whose brutality and lack Of ex-
ecutive ability have been notorious over
Europe.
Servia has an area of 1850 square
miles, or about one-thiri the extent of
Iowa Its population is nearly equal to
that of this state. The legislative pow
er. according to the new constitution
proclaimed by King Alexander I. in
1901. is vested in senate and the ma
rada skupshtina, or national assembly.
which has 130 members elected for four
years by voters who hold the franchise
thru payment of taxes. The senate
consists of eighteen elective members,
thirty appointees of the king and an
archbishop and bishop. besides the
heir to the throne. The active Servian
army numbers in all about 100000 men
and officers. Military service is OBJ

| ter In regard to the attitude of the

| it is stated that there has been much
misapprehension because of the differ
ent tactics taken by different factions.
A trustee said in regard to this matter:
! "The students and alumni of the in
stitution have been about as badly di-
vided as the board itself. Some of
them wene for Stanton and some for
Curtis, while others have done what
they could for Mr.. Shreckengast. The
Stanton men made grand stand play
and passed resolutions and indulged in
letter writing. The men who We're for
Curtis. took different tack and fol-
lowed the plan of personally seeing the
trustees AS a result the influence OF
the students and alumni as felt by the
members of the board. has been about
equally divided between the two men.
They both have very warm admirers
among those who are attending the COL
lege or have been there. But the BOARD
has not been greatly helped by them
toward solution of the perplexing
problem ahead of us.
