BELGRADE, June 1.-THE assassi-
Draga, the latter's two brothers, the
Servian premier, minister of war and
former minister of war and the proc
lamation by the army of Prince Peter
Kara Georgevitch. as king of Servia,
has apparently been accepted by the
capital and the Servian people without
a murmur. The meeting of the skup-
schtina on Monday next is now looked
forward to to confirm the proclama-
ton as king of Prince Peter and to
regularize. the new situation.
The only new element in the situa-
ton is feeling among the intelligent
classes in favor of the abolition of a
Servian monarchy altogether and the
creation of a republic, and this senti-
ment is shared by at least one member
Of the provisional government. Diff
ferences of opinion on this point de-
veloped today at a meeting of the cab
met when the new foreign minister,
Ljubinir Kalievics, expressed himself
for the establishment of a republican
form Of government The majority 4,
the IulIIISCGfS, however, d0CIdF0Q lneIu-
selves in favor of a new king in Prince
Peter. They strengthened their dec
laration 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.
The remains of the ill-fated king
and queen were buried almost stealth
| lily last night in the chapel of St.
Mark, where the members of the Obre-
novitch family are Inferred.
| The government has laid claim to
the possessions Of the late monarch. 1t
is not known whether he left for
tune. but it is supposed that he had
considerable savings, having lived eco
nomically during the last decade. 1t
is reported that the greater part of
his money was deposited in England,
but it is questionable whether the cap
ital would be delivered to the Servian
government. The opinion here is that
all belongs to the state, including even
the kings foreign investments. 1t is
possible that Ex-Queen Natalie may
also appear as an heiress. Queen
Draga was in receipt of $4,000 gulden
($12, ,000) monthly and also had great
savings, which will be handed over to
her three sisters.

DETAILS OF THE
REVOLUTION

The following is a narrative of the
revolution given by men who took an
active part in it:
Army officers to the number Of nine
ty, having formed project of revolt,
among them being delegates from al
most every garrison in Servia and the
majority of the officers Of the Sixth
regiment, Col Mitschitsch invited his
comrades on Wednesday evening at IL
o'clock to meet in the Kalima gden gar
den and there the immediate carrying
out of the intended deed was organ
ized.
At lao a. m the officers in eight
groups went to the Konak, the royal
palace. Each had a cue and especial
directions regarding his part in the
revolution. In the Konak palace itself
the revolutionaries had two important
partisans in the kings body guard
Col. Alexander Maschin, Queen Draga's
cousin (not brother -in-law), and the
kings personal adjutant, Lieut.. Nau-
movies Two officers of the high mill
itary academy appeared at the ap-
pointed hour, a. m, at the gate of the
Konak, where the kings adjutant,
Panajotovic, who was in the conspir-
acy, handed them the keys to the gar
den gate which is always kept locked.
First stepping before the guard at the
Konak, one of the two officers called
throw down your arms" A fight en-
sued, with shots from both sides, in
which several persons were wounded.
The revoIutionaries then entered
without hindrance and reached the
court yard, where Lieut.. Naumovich
was awaiting. He opened the lock Of
the iron door leading to the front room
on the first floor. BY this it was seen
that the Konak was carefully closed
and that danger was suspected. Hur-
rying upstairs to the first floor, the re-
voting officers attracted the atten-
ton of the palace attendants and the
royal couple by the noise of the shoot
ing. Lieut.. Lavar Petrovitch, alarmed
by the unwonted hubbub, hurried with
a drawn revolver in one hand and in
the other a sword.
What do yau want?" he cried.
"Show us where the king and queen
are" came the reply.
Back" cried Petrovitch, and at the
same moment ball stretched him on
the ground. The revolutionaries press
ed forward, when suddenly the cleo
tric light gave out. All stood in dark
ness In the greatest excitement and
feeling their way, the revolutionaries
climbed the stairs and got into the
dark ante-room to the kings apart
ment. Here they found candles and
lit them. This seemingly slight cir
cumstance was decisive to the whole
action.

lives at 1151 Goodrich avenue, St. Paul
The drummer. r. Schultz, a married
man, and also d member of the Metro
pOlitan theater orchestra, was thrown
to the street and badly bruised. He
was taken into Whitted's flower store
on Nicollet avenue and the ambulance
from st. Barnabas hospital summoned
Before it could arrive, however, the

Max Matthew, married, was also
hurt. He was taken to his home at
638 Fifth street northeast. He was
badly bruised, but his injuries are not
considered serious. Several other mu-
s1cians were slightly hurt, but were
able to go to their homes unassisted.
The streets were packed at the time
of the accident, and both sidewalks
were lined to the curb with women and
children, and it is little short of a
miracle that there were not more per-
sons seriously hurt. After the first
plunge Of the horses the members of
the band scattered in every direction,
and Putnam had nearly a block of un-
obstructed street before him, which en-
abled him to get control of the fright
ened horses, and pull them into a walk.

tolls, commenced to search for thu
couple.
In breathIess haste the conspirators
ran through the rooms, opened ward
robes and looked behind curtains in
vain. In the ante-room connecting
with the corridor between the old and
new Konak, the sergeant of the gen
darmes was sleeping. Awakening, he
stepped before the revolutionaries,
who felled him.
At last Queen Draga's servant was
found. He wounded Capt. Dimitrevio
severely, but was spared because he
was needed in finding the fleeing cou-
pie. Indeed, this servant showed the
officers where King Alexander and
Queen Draga had gone to secrete
thems elves.
When he had told this he was shot.
Col. Maschin now Joined the revoIu-
donaries and led them back to the
sleeping apartment, where the kings
adJutant tried to hinder the search.
He shot at Lieut.. Naumoyics, who fell
dead. The others killed the adju-
tant.
After a long search a small door
leading into an alcoVe was discovered,
but it was found locked. 1t was
broken in with an ak and here the
royal couple were found in undress.
The older officers first intended forcing
the king to abdicate, but the young
officers were in no mood to be held
back and shot at the royal couple.
Nobody knows in the excitement who
shot first, but it is generally said it
was Lieut.. Kistics.
After the murder King Alexander's
| body was found entirely covered with
blood. That of Queen Draga was bad
ly torn by bullets. The report that
the bodies were thrown out of the
| window into the garden is untrue. The
| young officers intended to do so, but
| Col. Maschfn prevented it, exelaiming:
That would be barbarousI'
I! All the servants of the royal couple
| fed when the first shots were heard
with the exception Of Queen Draga's
/ servant, who was found dead. At 2:12
all was over. Col. Maschin issued
from the gate of the KOnak, around
which great crowds had collected, and
made speech, saying:
I'VE have now destroyed the dynas-
ty of Obrenovitch and have got rid Of
the dishonorable woman who was the
kings evil spirit. Long live Servia!"
The people responded: Long live
the army!"

Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan,l ]
 whitehorse, July n.-News has just leaked out of a big gold strike on a tributary of the Tahkeena river, near Lake Arkell. The strike was made by Dawson Charlie and other Indians. Charlie returned from the strike today, and while he is reticent, he confirms the news. He says the dirt is very rich, running at no place under 25 cents to the pan. He had considerable gold with him, and will return to the scene of the strike with more men and more grub.
 Some white men got wind of the strike in some way few days ago and they followed the rich Klondiker, It is expected that they will be back in a day or two.
The daily morning Alaskan., 1903-07-12

Dawson Charlie came on the train from whitehorse to Caribou yesterday and he made no bones of the fact that he had made rich strike. He refused to be specific as to the location, but 1t was ascertained that 1t is not far from Lake Arkell Charlie exhibited gold that he got and he stated that 1t was prospected in several different places along the creek, and the surface never refused to yield 25 cents to the pan. Charlie was in high spirits over the strike he had made.
