GREAT BRITAIN ABHORS THE CRIME
OF THE SERVIAN REV0LUTI0NISTS

ii would be hard to find a parallel for
the oUtrages, even in the annals OF
states which made no pretense to be
included among the civilized cOmmuni-
ties. The government had ascertained
that France. Germany and Italy were
maintaining an attitude towards Ser
via similar to that of Great Britain
while Austria and Russia were pre-
pared to recognize the new regime, al
though Russia appeared to have
claimed that proper punishment
should be inflicted. He thought that
Great Britain would not propose to the
other powers concerted measures of a
punitive character against the authors
Of the OutTageS. He had telegraphed
to the British ministry at Belgrade on
June Is not to recognize the pro-
visiOnal government, whose freedom
from completely in the acts of that
frightIul night had not been estab-
lished. nor do anything necessitating

withdraw from Belgrade for some time
on the arrival there of King Peter,
and in the meanwhile to do nothing
which could be construed as a reCOg-

at the crimes at Belgrade and said he
thought it was not desirable that Sir
George BOnham. the British minister,
should be in that city when the new
regime was inaugurated.
The foreign minister added that no
proposal had been received for con-

powers, but the British government
