Bodies Lie All Day in Rude Collins and the POpu|ace
 Spit Upon Them
DREAD SILENCE IN STREETS
 AS HEARSES PASS ALONG
All the Victims of the Conspiracy Sleep in Peace and a New Government Is Acclaimed By the
 People.

Belgrade, June 12.-The assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga. the queens two brothers. the Servian pre- mier, the minister of war and the former minister of war. perpetrated In the dark hours of yesterday morning by band of officers, and the proclamation by the army of Prince Peter Karageorgevitch, the pretender to the throne, as King of Servia, has apparently, it may be said, now that thirty-six hours has passed, been accepted by the capital and the servian people without a murmur The meeting of the Skupschtina on Monday next is now expected to confirm the proclamation as king of Prince Kara georgevltch and to regulate the new sit uation.
 Talk of Republic.
 The only new element in the situation is feeling among the intelligent classes in favor of the abolition of a Servian monarchy altogether and the creation of a republic, and this sentiment is shared by at least one member of the provisional government. Differences of opinion on this point developed today at a meeting of the cabinet when the new foreign min ister, Ljubonier Kelevics, expressed him self for the establishment of a republican form of government The majority of the ministers, however, declare themselves In favor of new king in Prince Peter Kara gcorgevitch They strengthened their de- claraton by the strong argument that it was certain that Austria and Russia would not countenance the creation of a republic. This is the view generally shared by politicians.
 Royal Couple steaIthlIy Buried.
 The remains of the ill-fated king and queen were buried stealthlIy last night in the chapel of St. Mark, where the mem bers of the Obrenovitch family are in- tered
 The government has laid claim to the possessions of the late monarch. It is not known whether he left fortune, but it is supposed that he had considerable savings, having lived economically dur ing the last decade
 It is reported that the greater part of his money was deposited in England but 1t is questionable whether the money would be delivered to the Servian govern ment. The opinion here IS that all be- longs to the state, even including the kings foreign investments. It Is possible that former Queen Natalie may also ap- pear an an heiress. Queen Draga was in receipt of 5000 gulden (S14,550) monthly, and also had great savings, which will he handed over to her three sisters. The following is a narrative Of the revolution given by men who took an active part in it:

CORNWALL LEFT
 A STATEMENT.

Another interesting matter which has come to light is the following statement which was contained in one of the letters which Cornwall left behind him. The statement is in Cornwalrs handwriting and Is absolutely authentic. It reads:
 When I bought the capital stock from Carpenter paid s1Oo.Ooo for 1t and 1t was only worth $sO0O0. I lost s2o,0O0 on this deal When l bought the Bank of Com merce when it failed, lost $22000, making total loss of s42,000. The other $5s 1000 lost speculatlng, trying to recover the A2,O00 originally lost In the legitimate business deals.
 Just what the shortage will be when all the assets are realized upon cannot yet be even approximately determined. George H. Stevenson, the receiver. stated tonight that notwithstanding all reports to the contrary, he had not given out any state ment whatever regarding the banks con- dtion and in his opinion such a statement would not be possible within a week.

CHILDREN LOST
 CHURCH MONEY.

For months the children of the city. under the leadership of Mrs. E. A. Little. have been working to raise money for the purchase of a bell for the Methodist church. They had raised something over ESQ., giving several successful entertain ments, in preparing for which much la bor and time were expended They re- gently ordered the bell, which arrived the day of the failure. and there is now no money to pay for 1t.
 Poor people, or those in only moderate circumstances, will suffer most. heavily from the failure, as the active depositors are the preferred creditors the depositors of savings or money put in time be- ing the last to be paid in final settle ment.
 Those people who deposited money the day of the failure feel themselves hardly used, and talk loudly of legal redress. The management of the Bank of Conn., merce still stoutly maintain that the de- positors will be paid in full and though there IS considerable uneasiness among the latter. the general feeling is that the loss. if any, will not be great Receiver T. O. Smith says that he Is not ready to give out any statement regarding the banks condition, but speaks favorably of it.

PROSPECTS ARE
 NOT VERY BRIGHT.

He said that he regretted to state that prospects, for favorable statement were not very bright MT. Stevenson, Bank Examiner J. E Ozburn and H. D. Cock rell, the cashier, have been hard at work all day and tomorrow, to facilitate the work, an extra man will be engaged to assist. The vault was opened today in the presence of a number of witnesses, but only $763 43 was found. A box un- derstood to contain money for Mrs. Corn wall has not been opened and will not be until tomorrow. Captain Cornwall left note stating that this box contained sl00O. It is understood that an examina- ton of the books shows the individual deposits out of balance $270. Il and the cash account short S55 64.
 All of the local churches lost more or less, the Baptists, who are building d ha1dsome new edifice, most heavily It is stated that they had $500 on deposit. The Ladies Aid society of the Presbyter- ian church lose over $100.

CLARK AND THE BoOTBLAck.

Senator Clark. of Montana, is a very
transformations man. He has a habit
of going around the streets downtown
without much regard to the niceties of
his personal appearance. He was
walking down Exchange place the
other day with his hat in his hand, a
very informal-l l-looking "magnate. At
the corner of New street, Pat Curran,
10 years old and Irish, stopped him.
Shine, mister?' said Pat, pointing
suggestively at the senator's boots.
The latter glanced down, noted the
shoes We're dusty, but remembered he
had an appointment with the Harri-
man attorney at his office.
"No-haven't time he said.
And the boy grunted. savagely: You
mean you amt got the price, don't
yer, mister?'
The senator told the story on him
self when he signed the check for $l0,-
600 900 about ten minutes later that
paid for 500 miles of Oregon Short

JOHNsON's NEW UMPIRE.
Big Jim Hassett TOleFates No Unnee-
eaanry Criticism.

Ban Johnson has secured one Of the best
umpires In the country in the person OF
James Hassetr, who was on the New Eng
land League staff last season. Secretary
Morse of that league tried twenty-three
men last season. and Hassett was the only
man who started and finished. Hassett Is
one Of the few umpires who is born. A
look at him Is enough to suffice to show
that he Is the real article. He Is a clear
cut 6-foOter, finely proportioned and looks
every inch the athlete.
Hassett does not rave recourse to auto
cratic measures to rule. His success il due
to the feat that he has excellent judgment,
that he fills the bill and that he t~olerates
no criticisms Of his rulings. Such an ex-
cellent critic as Billy Hamilton, who played
in the New England League last season.
pronounces him one of the best umpires
who ever appeared upon the diamond. In
addition to an excellent presence. Hassett
is very active, gets to the scene of all the
plays, and has a voice that can be distinct
ly heard In all parts of the field. All last
season he did not fine a man or put one Off
the diamond. The biggest kickers were as
putty in his hands.
Hassett halls from Portland. Me-. where
he is exceedingly well liked, as is shown
by the fact that he is a member of the
City Council. Mr.. johnson has had him In
view for a long time. and it required an ex-
c~eedingly tempting pecuniary offer to fnS
duce Hassett to accept a position on the
American stan next season. Mr.. johnson
has secured In him not only a frst-class ar
bitter. but a splendid card, for Hassett has
always been a prime favorite in the cities

lows at work. Sam c. Mott. representative
of the pair. departed yesterday for Louis
vile. and gave a lengthy description of the
bout with Monroe before he left.
II was right at the ringside when that
affair took place" he said. "and / want to
say that Monroe won't last thirty seconds if
he ever faces Jeffries again. 1t was en-
tirely due to Jeffs good nature that he re-
manned as long as he did. as the champion
did not want to disappoint a big crowd
gathered to see the fight.
w had one ten-round bout scheduled as
an opener: then a four-round go between
Fitz and some big fellow of Monroe's class;
then the bout between Jeftries and Monroe.
The opening bout lasted about half a
round. one of the men getting knocked out
in short order. Then Fitz went on and put
his man out with q punch.
Monroe was scheduled to go against JEFF
fries. and he had quite a local reputation
as an amateur boxer. From the start 1t
was easy TO see that JEFF held him safe. but
the champion wanted to give the crowd a
run for their money. When the spectators
commenced to yell with delight over the
showing Monroe was making, JEFF looked
over at them and just laughed. 1t didn't
worry him a bit.
