THE sERvIAN DILEMMA.
The Russian and Austrian Demands

eassins Proves n Poser.

Belgrade. June 22.--The position OF
the ministry Is becoming more unen-
viable daily in consequence of the
Russian and Austrian demands for
the punishment OF the assaSsins OF
King Alexander and Queen Draga
The terms Of the Russian note al.
most caused panic among the cabi'
net ministers, who are anxiously
awaiting the arrival Of King Peter tc
extricate them from the dilemma. The
war minister is the paramount power
in the ministry. as be is backed by the
entire army, and he threatens severe
resentment in the case OF any hint bl
member Of the cabinet of the pun
ishment of the conspirators. Ih'
promotions of officers sent from &c
neva are variously explained as eth
er intended as an open defiance oi
as being the result Of alarm caused
by the attitude Of the army.
The foreign representatives whc
have not been instructed are asking
their respective governments what at
titude they shall assume at the recep
tion Of King Peter. The Russian
minister is in a quandary. He hat
resumed relations with the provision
al government when the ear tele
graphed his recognition of Kinl
Peter, but the minister takes the sub
sequent publication Of Russia's de
mand for punishment as an indication
that Russia win possibly order tn
suspension of relations with the gov
ernment until the murderers are pun
ished. Meanwhile, the preparation
for the reception of King Peter con
tinue. A public holiday has been pro
claimed, provincial deputations ar
coming TO Belgrade, free wine an'
beer are to be provided by the gov
eminent and the town is to be givei

JUDGE M'MILLAE REMOVED.
xudge Mcmillan, of the supreme
Court of New Mexico, Removed

Washington, June 22.-President
Roosevelt, after conference with
Att'y.-eGn. Knox, signed an order re-
moving Judge Daniel II. Mcmillan, OF
the supreme court Of New Mexico, on
charges of general immortality. Judge
Mcmillan originally was appointed to
the position from Buffalo, N. Y. Judge
Clement c. Smith, Of Hastings, Mich,
has been appointed 10 succeed him.
Some time ago John c. McMilburn,
president Of the Pan-American expo
sition, and Secretary OF War Root
came to the front for Mcmillan and
succeeded in having him retained tenn
porarily. Recently, however, the evil
dence against him began TO accumu-
late and proved to be of such a char
acter that the president decided he
could no longer permit Mcmillan TO

Mississippi State News
Boundary Dispute.

Hon. Monroe McClurg will visit
the coast for the purpose of explor-
ing the territory involved in the
boundary dispute between Louis
lana and Mississippi. Mr.. MeClurg
has been appointed to represent the
State in the litigation which is now
pending before the Supreme Court
Of the United States at Washington.
He has handled the case from its in
ception and it was thought advisable
to keep him at the helm on account
OF his familiarity with the questions
at issue. This dispute, it viii be re-
called, involves quite a considerable
expanse Of water and coast line and
small islands on the coast which is
devoted to oyster industry. As the
matter now stands there is consid-
cradle friction between the citizens
of the two States as to the respective
rights Of each aud the original
boundary markings seem to have
disappeared. The State Of Louis
lana brought the suit originally and
the State Of Mississippi, through
Gen. McClurg, the attorney general,
demurred to the showing made by
the Louisiana authorities, taking
the ground that there was no bound
airy dispute in fact. The court over
ruled this demurrer and required
the Mississippi authorities to plead
to the merits Of the case. The case
will soon come up for trial before
the great tribunal at Washington
and Gen. McClurg desires to thor
oughly acquaint himself with all the
facts of the case before he goes to
Washington. He will get the oys-
ter tug which belongs to the Mis-
sissippi oyster commission and he
will sail out over all the territory
involved in the dispute and famil-
iarize himself with the markings
and with the extent of the territory
and with all the facts.
