Col. Naumovitch was on duty inside

given signal he would order the pal

upon they proposed to proceed to the
kings apartments and present to him
an ultimatum in the name of the

IL seems, however, that both the
king and queen had expected some
thing of the sort to happen. The
queens brother. Capt. Loungnevitza,
her candidate for the throne, returned
to Belgrade on Tuesday. and the royal
pair had received a warning that his
appearance at the palace would GER

the part of the friends OF the Kara

surprise visit. the king had barricaded
the door OF his room.
Admittsnce is Refused.
The conspirators outside the palace
were challenged by the guards at the
gate. whom Col. Naumovitch had neg

to open the gates. They refused and
short parley ensued. during which
Col. Maschin walked away to procure
assistance from a company of the
Sixth regiment stationed close by.
Capt. Panajovitch. in charge of the
palace guard, still refused to admit

to death by a soldier. The rest of the

CIVIL WAR NOT LIKELY.
New King of servia Is Acceptable
to the People.

New King of Servis Is Acceptable
to the People.
The tragedy at the palace of Bel
grade. marking the latest of the revo-
lutions which have convulsed Servia
from time to time during the last cen
tury. is not regarded in diplomatic
circles as likely to lead to civil war
Stress is laid on the unpopularity of
King Alexander since his marriage to
Queen Draga. King Alexander's sue
cessor. Peter Karageorgevitch. is n
son-in-law of the prince of Monte
negro. and is regarded as being most
acceptable to the people.
The universal anxiety OF the gov
ernments of Europe for peace is ad
vanced as n reason why the Servian
situation is not likely to lead to com
plications. Should. however. these
unexpectedly arise. Official circles
think an Austro- Hungarian army will
Immediately march into Servia and
restore order. This eventually. how
ever, is considered improbable.
1t is semi-officially stated that King
Edward of England and Queen Alex
andra were informed of the Servian
tragedy at Buckingham palace. but as
their majesties had no personal ac-
quaintance with the unfortunate SOW
ereigns their demise did not prevent
the king from carrying out his days
arrangements.
What will the future bring forth
for Servia was the question heard on
every hand. One morning paper
prints what is declared to be Ser
Wan prophecy. running thus:
After Karageorgevitch has passed
to the crown through blood. a foreign
nation will come down and hold tho
land, driving him away. There will
the foreigners stay for year. After
ward man will come from the blood
OF the old kings OF the land. who will
drive out the foreigners and establish
a new rule as great as In ancient
times"
A Servian resident In London Is
quoted as saying that Karageorge-
vitch's claims to the throne are likely
to be disputed by Prince Mirako of
.ontenegro. who married Constanti-
novitch, a descendant of the old Ser
Wan monarchs. Mirako Is In great
favor with Russia Peter Karageor-
gevitch is also persona gratissima in

Army in Conspiracy.

Army in Conspiracy.
The chief conspirators 150 in num-
ber were all men of high rank, who
acted in concert with the army. The
participation of the latter in the as
sassination, which blotted out the OBJ
renovitch dynasty, which has ruled
Servia with short intermission of
nearly a century. is mainly due to the
attitude of King Alexander and his
consort towards the officers of the
army, whom he always treated with
scant courtesy. HIS desire to remove
the war school from Belgrade to She
batz particularly gave the officers of
tense.
Dissatisfaction against King Alex
ander's rule has been actuated since
his suspension of the constitution last
April, and 1t is from that time that
the military plot dates. The organi
zation of the bloody plot was carried
out with consummate skill.
Prime Movers,
The prime movers in the plot were
Ljubomir Schiokoyics and Jislav Veil
kovics, who have entered the new
cabinet as ministers of justice and
finance respectively. NJ. Schiokovics
was condemned to twenty years penal
servitude for an attempt TO assassin
ate former King Milan.
The plot was carried out by the
principal officers of the army. among
whom was Col. Maschin, whose broth.
er was Draga's first husband, anS
Col Naumovitch, the kings adjutant.
Details Of Scheme.
The troops were held ready in the
barracks. All leave was stopped and
detachments were told OF to surround
the houses of the various ministers.
The Sixth regiment Of the line. Col.
Maschins command. was ordered to
surround the palace, and other troops
were instructed to prepare to put
down any outbreak on the part of
the kings partisans.
At O'Clock in the morning the
perpetrators of the tragedy appeared
at the gates of the royal palace de-
termined to seek the king in his bed
chamber and there force him to send
adrift Queen Draga and her brothers.
the eldest of whom she proposed
should be the heir to the throne.
Should the king refuse they were
sworn to demand his abdication, and

The conspiracy formed in Belgrade
eliminated in a bloody tragedy at the
royal palace soon after midnight June
IL. King Alexander l. Queen Draga
and her two brothers were butchered.
Two of the kings aids and two servi-
an officers lost their lives in his de-
fense.
In the fighting In and around the
palace, incident TO the butchery OF
the royal family. at least 100 persons
were killed.
Dynasty is Wiped Out.
In order that their plans TO over
turn the dynasty might not miscarry,
the consplrators at 2 O'Clock in the
morning assassinated Premier Marko-
witch, Ministers Petroyitch and Tu-
drovics. Gen. Paviovitch. the former
minister OF war. and some OF the
members OF the royal guard.
BY this bloody tragedy the Obreno-
witch dynasty was extinguished and
the Karageorgevitch family restored
to power on the anniversary OF the
assassination of Prince Michael OBJ
renoyitch, on June 10. 1868.

Immediately after the work of as
sassination was complete the conspir-
ators proclaimed Prince Peter Kara
georgevitch as king of Servia and
summoned the skupshtina tServian
parliamentl to assemble June 15 to
confirm the proclamation. A provis-
ional ministry was appointed to ad-
minister the government ad interim.
Milan's Son May Contest.
While 1t is believed that the proc
