Belgrade, June 23.-The army Off
GERS who took part in the assassina-
ton of King Alexander and Queen
Draga are already receiving promo

Il promotion to a colonelcy. Col.

guard has been promoted to a general
and senior aide TO King Peter. Capt.

major. Lieut.. Grouitch, who COM
manded the guard outside the palace
on the night of the murders, has re-
ceived a captaincy. The last three
form the military deputation that was
sent to Geneva to formally notify King
Peter of his selection. II has not been
ascertained whether King Peter really
made these promotions, and ii is sug-
gested that the war office announced

It is apparent that the provisional
government does not intend to treat
the assassins other than patriots.
They will take an important part in
King Peters reception upon his ar
rival here. Col. Mischits, who, II is
now stated, fired the first shot at King
Alexander, will be among the first to
greet the new king. Col. Maschin,
the brother of Queen Draga's first hus-
band, who also took a prominent part
in the murders, will speak at the gala
dinner to be given in the kings honor.
The other officers will take prominent
parts in inaugurating the new regime,
while the Sixth and Seventh regi-
ments, whose officers were conspicu-
ously identified with the murder plot,
have been chosen to line the streets
and form the guard of honor on the
kings arrival. King Peter must con-
cur or throw his fat into the fire.
Approved by King Peter.

YOUTH DEAD AND GIRL DYING.
Young Mans Former Alleged Engage
ment Causes the Trouble.

Scranton, Pa, June 20. - A pair OF
young sweethearts, Ernest Schmie
and Miss Jennie Brennan, both OF
Greenwood. were the participants in
double tragedy last evening which has
resulted in the formers death and
which probably also will prove fatal in
the case of the girl. The two had
loved each other devotedly for several
months. but another woman from
Schmic's old home interferred week
ago, and sought to hold him to an al
legged engagement with her. This led
the pair to seek refuge in death ana
they apparently planned last nights
affair with much elaboration. MISS
Brennan purchased a bottle OF car
bolic acid in the morning and shorty
afterward both started out for a walk
They strayed to a secluded spot IN
the midst of a forest and spent the
entire afternoon sitting side by size
on a rock They were seen by seVeral
other ramblers in the woods, and TINS
led to the search by the girls cousin
and several of his friends.

Peculiar Physical Condition Resulting,
1t le Thought. From Worrying.
Long Branch, n. j., June 23.-Endi-
colt G. Allen, young Harvard grad
uate, has been a patient in the Mon
mouth Memorial hospital for the past
week under peculiar conditions. Dur
ing that time Allen has not spoken
hardly a dozen words and has not
been awake for more than a minute
at time over half dozen times. It
is claimed Aliens condition is due to
worry. His father is a native of Bos-
ton, where the young man lived until
business reverses overlook the head
of the household. At first the hospital
authorities were inclined to treat his
case as more of a joke, but as time
passed his condition, instead of show
ing signs of Improvement, If anything,
continued to grow worse. Ammonia
was used to produce wakefulness long
enough for him to take nourishment.
and even this has failed of late When
aroused Alien says but a word or two
at time and then falls back into
slumber He told the nurse yesterday
when aroused that he suffered no
pain. His condition puzzles the ply.

Lowell Textile Workers Declare the
Strike at an End.

Strike at an End.
Lowell, Mass, June 23.-The textile
council yesterday afternoon declared
the strike in the Lowell mills at an
end. Every union affiliated with the
council was represented and the vote
was unanimous. Mule spinners and
loom fixers were included in this vote,
despite statements that they would
oppose a return to work. When
asked for statement President Con
roy said:
1--WE now worship at the altar Of de-
feat, but later we shall rise again and
conquer"
Agent William S. Southworth, Sec
rotary of the employers, said:
1T will be impossible to start the re-
mainder of the machinery so as to
employ at once all who will come
back. Running with an incomplete
force for three weeks has disturbed
the balance that usually exists be-
tween stock and prices in the various
departments. A mill

that reason be unable to start all of
it's looms, even if the full complement
of help is available. II is for the sell
ing agents and the treasurers to de.
eide, in view of the market, whether
we shall attempt to run in full. The
strike began on March 80 and in
volved about 1900 operatives. The
mills were shut down until June /,
when the agents opened the gates and
the majority of the operatives went
back to work The strike has cost in
wages about s1,30O,000. 1t is under
stood that the agents will take back
all the old help they have room for
and will make no discrimination
against the leaders of the strike move
merit. The high price of cotton pre-
cluded any hope of the success of the
strikers campaign for a 10 per cent

George Whit, the negfo who is
charged with assaulting and killing
Helen Bishop. the seventeen.year-ol
daughter of Rev. 4. A. Bishop, was
foiled before daylight yesterday morn

since the girl died as a result OF her in
juries there has been talk of lynching,
and the police and guards of the coun-

gro is confined, have been keeping a
close eye on the situation.
Between 2 and o'clock yesterday

the workhouse. The crowd was armed
with pistols and shotguns. When II

Fired Them Of.

There was considerable shouting and
calls for white. The workhouse is a
strong, secure place, and invulnerable
to such a small number of men. The
chief warden had all his guards on
duty but they were not compelled to
resist an attack because the crowd
soon dispersed. Shortly after this a
second mob of probably one hundred
men was reported as marching on the
workhouse from Wilmington. Police
Cart Evans of the Wilmington police
soon heard of this and sent tcle-
phone warning 70 the warden. He
followed this up by sending a squad of
seventeen patrolmen to the work
house and they dispersed a small
crowd. About thirty men hung about
the place until daybreak, when they
also dispersed. The family of the
murdered girl is doing all ii can to
prevent violence and is advising the
citizens to let the law take its course.

We learn. though from not very
certain source, the canal of the st.
Martin Irrigation Co., would be in
operation again this year. This
canal has been in operation three
years, and has not been a success.
Financially it was complete fail

planters ell complaint that they
did not get enough, though the
pump kept running continually.
We are of opinion that there is a
leakage or loss of water some
where, and If this loss cannot be
repaired, the acreage of land to be
irrigated should be reduced, and
if this is done, it might prove be-
ne6cial for the canal and the plan

he will fill with ability, and will

Keynote.
AT DES MoiNEs, JULY
Sundays Consultation Of cummins, Al
lison and Perkins in Chicago Re-
suited in Plan the Commit
tee Carried Out.

Des Moines, Ia, April S0.-The re-
publican state central. committee today
decided to hold the state convention
July 1 at Des Moines. Ex-Congress-
man George D.. Perkins. editor of the
Sioux City Journal, was chosen tenn
porary chairman.
He has heretofore been classed as an
anti Cummins man, but not opposed to
tariff revision. AT a conference of Per-
kins, Senator Allison and Governor
.Cummins in Chicago Sunday. it was
decided in the interest of harmony that
Perkins would be chairman and Allison
would draft the tariff plank. in accord
ance with Cummins' ideas
cummins Men Controlled.
The minor officers for the
ton were chosen as follows:
secretary-E. W. Weeks, Guthrie Gem
Assistant secretary-R. c.. Cover, Lau-
rens.
c~lerks.John Cook, Hampton. and A. v.
Sergeant at Arms-Colonel J. c. Lopez,
Des Moines
Do~orkeeper-J. H. Wilson, Menlo.
The representation was fixed the
same as last year, being one delegate
for every county and one for every
200 votes or majority thereof cast for
governor at the last election.
The selection aof chairman was a
compromise. The anti Cummins men
urged Congressman w. P. Hepburn.
but found they were in the minority,
the committee standing five to six.
Perkins, while heretofore opposing
CumHnins, is satisfactory to the latter
on the tariff question.
q. II. Hunter, one of the active anti
Cunmins schemers, requested the
newspaper men to state that the COM
mittee informally decided it would ia
vor Mr.. Hepburn for permanent chair
man. e
