KING PETER OF
SERVIA MAY
ABDICATE
BERLIN.- King Peter of Servla,
has long been the least enviable of
European monarchs, Ik now In an In
tolerable position. Either abdication
or a coup d’elal—that Is the dilem
ma that confronts a qniistitutlonal
monarch. Since the recent cabinet
crisis no Servian statesman has con
aented to form a new ministry, al
though five attempts have been made
As the king Is apparently not strong
enough to establish himself as an au
tocrat it Ik likely that he will either
appoint a dictator or abdicate. Mean
while the garrison is kept in constant
readiness for emergencies or to en
force the threatened coup d'etat.
Recently King Peter held a birth
day reception, which Is described ns
a pitiable farce. King Peter, looking
weary and forlorn, without premier,
ministers or parliamentary dignita
ries, received the good wishes of the
diplomatic corps, and cdmplalnlng of
the heat, hastened to his private
apartments. The king shows the of
feet of the great strain to which he
has been subjected since the begin
ning of the parltamcrnary crisis.

When Albrecht recommended the
blood of dead murderers hk a un I ver

demand for the gruesome “medicine.”
Albrecht sold hundreds of bottles of

TAMMANY’S LEADER
PREDICTS BRYAN’S
ELECTION
NEW YORK Ohas. F. Murphy, load
er of Tamrnay Hall Is quoted as hav
ing predicted the election of W I.
Bryan at the November election.
"Mr. Bryan,” he Is reported to have
said, "Is much stronger In New Yo-k
state today than he was In either of
the previous elections Why, 1 do
not know but there la u variety of
evidence on which I base this asser
tion I believe one of the reasons
Is the dll-satlsfacllon with Roosevelt
and hi* policies which Taft has p!dg
ed himself lo continue. A great many
men who were with the republican
party In the past will be with the
democrat* this yeat It means a
great deal when men like Morgan I.
O’Brien and Dditneey Nlcnll, who op
posed Itrvun In the past come out
flat-footed for him I believe also that
Bryan will uld the stall: ticket.”
Mr. Murphy said that, fhc demo
cratic candidate tor governoi had not
been decided upon.

the Marseilles city council has gone
as far as to forbid hats of any kind In

this new regulation the troubles will
