THE SERTIAN DILEMMA.

There j. to be DO international winking AT the
crime Of Belgrade. The days news makes that
sure In time perhaps, King Peter and his
government may be generally recognized Ihey
viii not now be, save 10y two Of the important
powers. and their recogniuons are coupled with
grave reproofs. The British Government sets
good example in Withdrawing its minister from
Belgrade and declining TO maintain ordinary re-
7ations with murderers: and France, Germany
and Italy viii follow that example. Consider
ing the keen rivalry between Austria Hungary
and Russia in the Balkan. it was not TO be eX-
pected that they would go so far. But even
they have condemned the means through which
the sovereign they are recognizing and congrat-
7llating has come to his throne
For the Russian Government has revised its
first action in the matter. 4 few days ago
the Car sent 10 King Peter a note Of greet
fncs and good wishes. without q word or a
hint Of reprobation of the abominabe crime by
virtue of which Peter had become King. That
message, with that omission, greatly surprised
the world at large and was in striking contrast
to the message Of the Austrian Emperor, which
was no less cordial in its good wishes for Peter,
but was. nevertheless, outspoken IN its con-
domination OF the regicide But the Cars note
gave great JOY 10 the murderers at Belgrade,
who cheerfully announced that bygones were
bygones and that all the world would have 10
follow Russia's lead in recognizing King Peter.
Now. however, Russia thinks better OF it, and
issues one Of the most vehement notes on rec
ord. offering an Apologize explanation Of the
former note with its amazing omission, and
almost demanding that King Peter shai! rigor-
ously punish the assassins Of his predecessor.
Leaving out of the question the motives Of tho
Russian Government in pursuing this course, il
IS evident that this latest note confronts Servia.
