LONIXN. Bept. "While definite it-
formaUon ia still lacking, the rumor In
Paris of the assassination of the Servian
kinc 1 retarded here aa a bourse canard.
The Foreign ofHoe has no Intimation n-
tar dinar the rumored assanslnation of the
kin of Bervia. The j-eport reached fcere
throuajh n aews agency dispatch from Ant-
erp, saying a teport that tbe king had
leen assassinated waa current there, and
it caused considerable excitement and de
pression on tbe bourse, owing to the ah
srnoe of official Information.
The report was eventually attributed to
tbe excited conditions prevailing at Bel
grade. The evening newspapers hers pub
lished the report, but did not attach any
sertousneas to it.
PARI 8. Sept. II A dispatch from Bel
grade states that the report of the naaas
aination of King Peter of Serrla ia without
foundation.
Official reports from Belgrade Indicate
that King Peter's recent retirement of
Colonel Ntebtich from tbe position of the
departmental chief in the ministry for
war is tbe beginning Of n movement look
ing to tbe separation of King Peter from
the conspirators who took part in the
assassination of King Alexander and
Queen Iraga. Xlcbtich, the leader of tbe
conspiracy, waa conspicuously honored and
Is now degraded aa tbe result of wide
spread Indignation at the favor shown by
the king toward the participants in the
assassination.
The Temps' Belgrade correypondent say
the election for members of the Bkupshtlna
next Monday prominea to 'result In a
majority favorable to the separation of
the king from tbe regicides.
UlXKiX, Bept. 1SL Const err.aticm wa
caused by the announcement of the resig
nation of Secretary Chamberlain.
Tbe great majority of fbe pubHe only
learned tbe new from tbe morning paper
and their astonishment In many case wa
ao great a to prevent the expression of
any coherent opinion.
The I "all Mail Gazette thla afternoon aptly
um up the genral feeling by describing
the present crisi e tbe "rooet extraor
dinary in tbe whole history of constitu
tional government," adding that what will
happen next no one can forecast with any
degree of atolute certainty. The Pall Mall
Gsaette stated that Premier Unlfour will
f.ll up the vacancies and carry on tbe gov
ernment until he meet Parliament in J!M.
Mr. Chamberlain, also, doe not look for
an Immediate general election, expecting at
least twelve months propaganda before the
electorate can decide upon hi proposals.
Other rumor are current that Mr. Balfour

and that he will be obriged to hand the king
his own resignation. Thla. however, does
not appear likely.

the colonial office, and it is definitely an

"Though the anan has gone," says the
Sfar. "baa poller remains. ThU Is Mr.

This is borne out by the reports from

the head and shoulder of the movement
came as a great surprise, ceaseless activ
ity prevail and it H announced that Mr.
