Sir: The tragedy of to-day was not unex-
pected by those familiar with the political sltua-

teen wears his senior and formerly a lady-in-
waiting 10 his mother, Queen Natale, nearly
produced revolution She was an attract

woman, who completely fascinated the youthful
King and absolutely controlled his acts. His
majesty was unprepossessng in appearance,
weak mentally and morally. but friendly in his
disposition. stubborn, irnpulsive and courageous
qualities which at times made him unpopular
with his own ministers. Queen Draga held the
purse strings and personally looked closely after
the expenditures of the royal household, for
which the government appropriated annually
1.500 600 francs. King Alexander's unpopularity
increased as Queen Draga persuaded him to
make mistake after mistake in governmental
policy, and the deception practised by her in at
tempting to palm of a sisters baby her own.
followed by an effort to have the King proclaim
her notoriously bad brother heir to the
throne, nearly precipitated a revolution about
year ago.
The situation In Servia to-day is interesting.
and especially so in view of the condition Of
affairs prevailing Throughout the Balkan
States. The recently proclaimed King is de-
scendant OF BLACK George, under Whom the
Servians drove the Turks out Of the country in
the early part of this century, and who ruled
prince for several years, and although living
iu exile he has had a strong following among
the peasant class Of Servia- Prince Karageorge-

likely to be the scene Of decidedly interesting
