BALKAN KINGS ARE !.
KNOWN IN PARIS
Greek, Bulgarian and Serbian
Kings Visit in Paris
Often "".r

Paris, Nov. 9.-Three kings, Ferdi-
'nand of Bulgaria, Peter OF Serbia, and
Constantine of Greece, are looming
large on the eastern horizon just now,
and hardly less important are their
three premies, who have been making
most of the moves in the new game OF
the Balkans. T.
The three Balkan kings are almost
as we'll known here as in their own
capitals. They come here for their
relaxation. They make frequent ofh.
cial visits at which they are central
figures at grand levees at the Quay d.
Ursay, gala performances at the Grand
Opera, and military reviews at Vim
cennes. They used to come often, al
so, on business, chiefly to buy the lat
est pattern of French artillery, the
famous "75,. Besides these kingly
visits, each of these monarchs, incOg-
nito, has had his days as a Paris
boulevardier, and Peter in particular
and his royal brother Arsene, are well
acquainted with the paths OF Bohemia
leading though Montmartre and the
Latin Quarter.
On one Of King F~erdinand's visits
there was opportunity to view him at
close range, as he received in most
democratic fashion at a reception at
the foreign Office. He was in the cen.
ter of a group Of cabinet ministers,
and his military retinue in their bril-
liant uniforms. But the king himself
was in plain evening clothes, with the
wide red ribbon of the legion of Hon.
or across his breast. He is of mas
sive build, and quite looks the part of
a king, or car. His face is genial
and his yellow hair and Saxon beard
give him rather a German aspect.
Some of Ferdinand's German char
are receiving special atten-
ton since Bulgaria has ranged herself
with Germany. While son of a Ger
prince Of Saxe!C rg-Gotha,
and born at Vienna, his mother was
the French princess Clementine of
Orleans. This latter fact has given
the French special bitterness against
1t is also noted that he
is an officer of the 18th Austrian huz.

king; one Of the dainty slippers
dropped by Marie Antoinette during
her famous defense from the mob by
the Swiss guard; the black crystal
cup from watch Napoleon drank to
his victory at Austerlitz, and Other
are objects.
AS explaining Ferdinand's recent
tendency toward Germany, a story is
related by a diplomatist recently
stationed here. According to this,
Emperor William even before the
European waribegan, sforesaw possible
eYentualities in the Balkans, and per-
sonaly addressed himself to the
three kings Of Bulgaria, Greece and
Rumania. His overture to each was
NEST tactful. He did4not ask them to.
range their countries on the side of
Germany. All he asked was the
promise from each that in the event
of a European conflict, they would
not make war against Germany. This
seemed fair to the three kings, and
they are said to have given their
promise to it, on the taeory that it did
not commit them to war, bat to keep
out Of War BIT the Kaise: is said TO
have viewed it from another stand
point, and to hare felt quite serene
since then at the, efforts of the Quad
ruple Allies to have the Balkan states
range themselves solidly against GEL
many. However the situation las
much changed since these alleged
promises. The king of RWnania has
died and been succeeded by another.
The king of aGreeceZhas found a. new
condition presented, not contemplated
at the time of tae so-called promise
that Greece's ally, Serbia, was attack.
ed Gby Germany's ally, Austria. This,
according to the story of the diploma
fist, has left King Ferdinand rs the
only one to carry out the promise.
