Meantime the conspirators held a
meeting. At about | o'clock in the
morning the Sixth and Seventh regi-
ments were called to arms and were
led to the royal palace, which they
entirely surrounded. A band of thirty
officers, led by Col. Maschin and Col.
Mischics, forced their way into the
palace. shooting all who attempted to
bar their passage. They were aided
by treason within. The aide-de-camp
on duty, Col. ,Naumovics, had been
won over by the conspirators Sew
eral doors leading to the royal apart
ments were blown in by dynamite,
Col. Naumovics, himself, bursting in
the door of the royal bed chamber
with bomb
The officers had called on the king
to open but he had CURLY refused. AS
the door fell the king rushed to a
window and appealed for assistance,
but no answer came. Realizing the
situation he returned to the queen,
holding her in his arms to protect her,
and awaited the conspirators.
Col. Naumovics presented to the
king form of abdication for his sig
nature.
The document contained the state
ment that by marrying a ''public
prostitute" the king had degraded
Servia and that he must abdicate
The kings answer was to draw re-
volver and kill Naumovics on the
spot Col. Mischics picked mp the
document and presented it again.
King Alexander waved it from him.

Des Moines, June 9.The tax state
ments of a number of counties filed
in the Office Of the state auditor, indi-
cate that Iowa real estate valuations

creased in value from $10,O00,00O to
$13, 100000, and about the same per-
centage of gain is shown in the Clay,

Tins Of thieves and firebugs. Their
store was discovered to be on fire
early in the morning but the fire was
extinguished before much damage
was done by the judicious use of
chemicals. In looking over the stock
after the fire, it was discovered that a
quantity Of goods had been taken, and
hence they arrived at the conclusion
that the thieves had fired the building
in order to cover their crime The
sheriff has been notified of the crime
and given description of the. stolen
goods but the probabilities Of finding
the guilty parties are very poor, as no
evidences were left at the building.
