governor of Iowa one year ago today.
1t is safe to say that no governor of
the state has ever given to the state
as many hours of solid work in any

a good deal harder at the job than
he could have worked at his law prac-

KINGS COURSE OBJECTIONABLE
Servan Minister in London Discusses
the Assassination.

London, June 12-M Mijatoyitch,
Servian minister at London, confirms
the reported assassination Of the king
and queen Of Servia.
The Servian minister said there
were many causes leading to the revo-
luton. A large section Of the people
were greatly dissatisfied with the tend
ency of King Alexander 10 eliminate
the radical element from the govern
ment and by the constant rumors OF
his intention to appoint Queen DfaGa 5
brother, LunjeyltZa. heir apparent. In
addition to this the queen was dis
liked by the people, who were also
intensely outraged at the recent sus
pension of the constitution The min
lister did not anticipate that the
changes would result in inteineclne
strife or in any real danger 10 the
country. He points out that the orig
inal Karageorge was not prince. lie
was a rich swine owner. The father
of the new king was made prince III
1912.
The minister also related curious
incident. He said that month ago
seance at which letter written by
the murdered king was handed TO the
clairvoyant, who Immediately became
violently agitated and proclaimed that
King Alexander would be assassinated
very shortly and even depicted the
scene which appears to have been en-
acted at the palace at Belgrade during
the night.
The tragedy at the palace at Bel
grade. marking the latest of the revo-
lutions which have conyulsed Servia
from time to time during the past cen
tury. is not regarded in diplomatic
circles in London as likely to lead to
civil war. Stress is laid on the un-
popularity of King Alexander since
his marriage to Queen Draga. King
Alexanders successor. Peter Kara
georgevitch, is a son-in-law of the
Prince of Montenegro and is regard
ed as being most acceptable to the
people.

FLOOD CONDITIONS AT EAST ST

HOPEFUL ASPECT.
COLD WEATHER CAUSES SUFFERING
SEVERELY FELT BY THE THOU
SANDS OF PEOPLE WITH
OUT SHELTER.

St. Louis, June 12-The situation In
East ST Louis remains about the
same. The food on the south is still
being held back at Missouri avenue
where the levee is watched unceasing.
ly, as elsewhere. by thousands OF
workers ready with bags Of sand to
stop any break that may occur. de.
cline in the rivers stage of frac'
tion of an inch does not make any ap'
parent difference in the height OF the
flood, but shows that the river has a
tendency to fall. The stage at a. m
was $40. This may relieve the situa'
ton greatly during the day ii the fall
continues, but until there is a decided
decline in the food the city will be at
the mercy of the wall of water that
surrounds it on three sides.
The night was cold for this time OF
the year and there was considerable
suffering as a result among the thou
sands of homeless persons on the
East Side, most Of whom, however,
were taken care Of in comparative
comfort Ia tents and other modes OF
shelter.
Lack of drinking water is one of the
worst inconvenience suffered b. the
East St Louisians who were caught
in the second stories of their dwellings
by the flood Many are compelled to
drink OF water that surrounds them on
all sides, and much sickness is likely
to result if this continues.
Hundreds of Rescuers at Work.
Congressman w. A. Rodenburg, who
has charge of rescue work In East ST.
Louis sent hundreds of men out early
with boats through the submerged
district, taking OIL people from the
second stories and roofs of houses and
removing them to places of safety.
Water is still seeping through
Broadway, but that thoroughfare,
which is made ground, still holds and
it is believed viii not break.
Not one person has been drowned
by the inundation of this city" said
Chief of Police PuTdy. Several per
sons have fallen from RATS and from
overturned boats and been drowned
by accident, but not a life has been
lost by the inundating water. II all
the dikes surrounding East St Louis
were to break at once there would De
no loss of life and the city would not
be flooded in the residential district.
while there would not be more than
two feet Of water in the business por-
ton. People have been so thoroughly
warned that they would escape from
the most dangerous places at the first
menace of danger, and even II the
water came III it could not come in an
overwhelming deluge. However, the
dikes are more than sufficient TO pro
tect the city from damage and the
crisis is over The impression has
gone abroad that martial law has been
proclaimed. | want TO assert that
martial law has not been proclaimed
and will not be. We are amply able
to preserve order in the ordinary po-
lice manner and although there are
militiamen here the soldiers are un-
der my direct orders and are simply
doing police duty"
