SHUTS OUT ALL FOREIGNERS
New Queen In Abyssinia Puts Up
the Bars.

A new queen of Steba rules over
Abyssinia, who. unlike her who visited
King Solomon, Is an enemy to every
thing foreign In violation OF an
agreement that the crown should de-
scend to his daughter Zeoditu, the
late Emperor Menelik designated as
his successor his grandson Jeassu, n
young man of 20. The latter dis
played an exaggerated liking for
everything foreign. and at the out =
break OF the war expelled all Ger
mans from his dominions at the insti-
CATION of the British. Later he of
fered two hundred thousand troops
to aid the allies. He was con-
firmed drunkard. was reckless in his
conduct and policies and was popu-
larly regarded as usurper He was
deposed by the great mobiles and
zeoditu was given the throne, which
they considered hers by right
The new empress. who is 40 years
old. hates everything foreign and Is
expected to root out all foreign con
cessions. She may try to close up
Abyssinia as tight as Japan and
Thibet formerly were closed. This
policy may cause serious friction with
the European powers, whose colonies
entirely surround the empire. That
country and Liberia are the only part:
Of Africa which remain independent

To Prefer Charges

The Central Labor union delegates
learned last evening that they had not

they publicly censured for making
charges of graft against the officers
of the Central Labor body. At he
meeting two weeks ago they passed a
resolution asking the unions sending
Coutts and Cas:lcman as delegates to
withdraw them.
Last night a communication was
brought before the body, in which the
stonecutters refused to withdraw
Coutts as delegate. After stormy
debate, in which charges of railroad
ing and gag rule were passed the or
ganization decided that the only way
in which they could rid themselves Of
the offending members was to offer
them a trial before a committee Of
the organization and the secretary,

Pretender to Throne
Of Serbia Waiter
On a Dining Car

Correspondence OF The Associated Pross)
Vienna, Aug. 5.-Onc of the illegiti-
mate sons OF the late King Milan
of Serbia, known as the Christich
brothers, who have been pretenders
to the Serbian throne, is now a waiter
i'll dining car running between
Vienna and Budapest, according to
an alleged discovery of a newspaper
man who formerly knew the Christch
brothers.
When King Milan died he entrusted
one of these boys, whose mother was
the beautiful Artemesia, to his life
long friend, Count Eugen Itchy OF
Budapest The latter for years treat
ed him as an own son, supplied him
beautifully with all material things;
and then died without remembering
him in his will or without making any
provision for him. Thus falling sud
denly from comparative attluence to
poverty, the man dropped out OF sight
completely. His present discoverer,
who was making trip from Budapest
to Vienna. and who knew the Christ
ich brothers in the old days when
Count Itchy was alive. was surprised
to find that the waiter who served
him so nosclessly and competently
was no other than one of the Christ
ich bows. The latter with some re-
luctance told him that he had tried
to make a living in one OF the state
ministries, but had failed because he
possessed no qualification; had tried
the stage but had been ruled off by
the police because he had billed him
self as a prince; and finally had turned
TO waiting ON table, because he knew
OF nothing else he could do efficiently.
The foregoing is of interest particu-
larly because OF 9 story from Rome
recently copied in this country to the
effect that one OF these illegitimate
sons OF the late Milan had been
proclaimed King OF Serbia at Bel
grade. by the Austrian and German
authorities. The Vienna correspon-
dent appears to dispose OF that re
port from Rome, for the other OF the
Christich brothers was recently re-
ported by London newspaper to be
in London, employed as ladies' tail
or in large department store at a
salary of SIS a week. In January OF
last wear, he applied to Sir Thomas
Upton for passage to Serbia on board
the Yacht Erin, saying he was DESTROYS
to fight for his country. but Sir HON
A, refused his request. and 50 tar as
known he is still in England.
King Milan was ruler of Serbia from
1882 to 1880. His only legitimate
son was Alexander, who, with his
Queen Draga, was assassinated IN
1908. but stories oi Milan'S irregular
offspring by Artemcsia Christch. who
was the wife OF the private secretary
of King Milan, and who was the
cause OF Queen Natalics divorce
from her husband have been given
full credence. There has. however,
always been considerable mystery
about the subsequent career OF these
two sons, Milenke and George t
is not known from the dispatches
which OF them is i'll London and
which in Vienna, but it seems appar-
emf that neither OF them have been
proclaimed King OF Serbia by the oc-
cupying forces OF Ieutons at Bel
= grade.
