PETER CROWNED
KING OF SERYIA
Elaborate Ceremony at Belgrade
Without an Echo Of Royal
Tragedy.

Belgrade, Servia, Sept. 21.-Peter
Karageorgevitch was crowned king of
Servia today. There were no hostile
demonstrations and no attempt to carry
out the numerous threats against the
new kings life. In the solemn ritual
OF the Greek church, and in the elabor.
ate state procession, which. preceded and
followed the coronation, the tragedy of
Servla,s previous ruler found no echo

from the royal palace, and the garrison
King Alexander's murder was at least
outwardly forgotten.
Here and IN every garrison town OF
oeryla, the dawn OF day was marked by
q as salute ute Of twentXX-one guns, and before
horseback, rode out from the palace.
The brilliant procession then started
for the cathedral, thru the troop lined
streets. Behind the soldiers were
packed dense crowds who, in spite OF

cavalry and life guards (the heralds
bearing the royal standards), and car
riages with the Montenegrin and Serv
ian princesses, preceded the monarch
Beside King. Peter rode his two sons
George and Alexander.
The . cathedral was reached shortly
After g h cl9sk There the representa-
ministers and others had already been
waiting for some time. AS King Petel
entered, the metropolitan consecrate6
and more artillery salutes were fred
The king then took up his position un

sisted by many bishops and other Gle rgy
commenced the solemn service, the choi1
singing ''Thank Thee Our Lord. -
After the prayer, the premier an6

King Peter offered the American min
