Prince Alexander of Servia has occ

Prince Alexander of Servia has occupied a
position heretofore-since the accession OF his
father to the throne-something like that of vice
president in this country. He is the youngest
son Of King Peter, which means that he was not
considered in the light of possible heir TO the
crown and therefore cut comparatively little
figure in the affairs of the troublesome kingdom.
Now, however. the youth finds himself sud
denly lifted into a position of prominence and
Importance in the eyes of his countrymen and
the outside world. His elder brother, Crown
Prince George, is the rattle-brained youth whose
rash words and Incorporate actions have all but
precipitated his country into a costly war with
Austria against the wishes of his royal father

To have half q dozen glaciers and snow
capped mountains in sight at one time was
no unusual sight, and for the first three
days the fountains were perfectly bare
of vegetation. At night we anchored IN
haroo1r5 the equal of which could not be
excelled if designed on purpose, usually
completely surrounded By mountains, with
IN entrance narrow and invisible from in
side the harbor, with the only evidence OF
civilization a few bolrds nailed up with the
names of ships that had anchored there be-
fore. One OF the charms of the anchorages
was the complete stiffness Of everything,
attainable only in a completely IN Inhabited
country.
For the first 400 miles the adjacent coun-
try is alb olutely uninhabited, and then for
the next 500 miles by an occasional Indian
family. We saw only three parties of these
Indians, who are said to be the most unciv-
iiized of any known people. Certainly,
if appearances count, they line up to their
reputation. In one party the whole family
was in % boat made of rough planks tied to-
gether with thongs, and M )st of the oc-
cupants in natures garb, although comfort

All of the dangers to navigation were
marked by buoys and beacons maintained
by the Chi'ian government, 50 the ~navigat-
ing was simpe. In fact, almost all the

the cliffs was more than a hundred tathoms

After passing outside, through tn III

the mount tins are just as high, but are

(Ye;o Yort Herald, March 2Ih.)
Ncho.as Muller, COMMISSIONS of Taxes
aud Assessments, was ramovel from off e
by Mayor Mcclellan yesterday. The Mayor
in IL letter notified Muller that lie htd
been removed because be was in arrears in
payment OF taxes to the city and, in spite of
opportunity to pay, had failed to do so.
This fact, the Mayor wrote, coupled with
the position held by Mr.. Muller, was suti-
cient to cause the removal.
Daring your term Of office as Tax Com
mi ssioner," said the Mayors letter, F'while
you have been charged with a sworn duty
to the city and its taxpayers, your duly
ass ssed taxes, with penalties and interest,
amounting to thousands of dollars, have re-
manned unpaid. At the same time you, as
such Commissioner, have been receiving
from the city u salary more than sufficient
to pay the amounts in question.
"Your indebtedness is now so large that
you appear to be the heaviest delinquent
tax debtor in the borough Of Richmond,
aud your delinquency has been so gross
that the city has been compelled to adver-
tise your property for sale.
II was not aware of this situation until
recently, when l promptly had your at
teution called to it, to give you an oppor-
tunity to re7ign. You seem, however, to
be as umnindful of the improperly of
retaining your position as you have been
of your obligations to the city.
81 therefore remove you from the office
of Commissioned of Taxes and Assessments,
to take effect immediately
Nicholas Muller for more than twenty
years was democratic leader of Richmond
county and was considered q power in poll
tics there. AT the primaries last year all
the influence that could be brought to bear
against him was thrown to Charles J.

Supply, Gas and Electricity. Mr.. McCor-
mack defeated Mr.. Muller for the leadership.
