"Mr. oincy. by some unaccountablc

sentiment Is one OF the things that he
has been saying.

KING PETERS CORONATION
England and Russia Alone of the Powers
VIII Not Be Represented at the


Ceremony.
Belgrade, Sept. 2O.-General Sava
Grultch, the prime minister, announces
that everything is in readiness for the
coronation of King Peter tomorrow.
twenty-five thousand troops are in the
city to hold the line of march and
preserve order Thousands of Servians
have arrived, but the number of for
elgn visitors is small and there is a
very meager list of notable guests.
Until the last it was hoped the car
would send member of his family to
represent him, but he has not done. so.
The other powers, except England,
have instructed their ministers here
to attend the coronation. England will
ignore the ceremony having withdrawn
her minister upon the assassination of
King Alexander and Queen Draga and
never appointed another.
