BELGRADE. March Il.-Th formula
agreed upon by the powers of Kurope snd
Austria-Hungary for the settlement of the
dispute between the dual monarchy and
Servia was accepted by the Servian gov
ernment today. The formula waa pre
sented at the foreign office by the British,
French. German. Russian and Italian min
isters, and Servia will, through ita minis
ter at Vienna, deliver to the Austrian
government tomorrow a note to the fol
lowing effect:
First, Servia declares that Its rights have
not been violated by the annexation by
Auetrta-Uungary, of Bosnia and Hersego-
vlna, and accepta tha powers' decision to
annul paragraph 36 of the treaty of Ber
lin; second, Servia will not protest against
the annexation of Bosnia and Herxrgovina;
third, Servia will maintain peaceful rela
tions with Austria-Hungary; fourth, Servia
will return Ita military forces to normal
conditions by discharging th reservists
and volunteers, and It will not permit the
formation of regular troops or bands."
This note has been prepared at the sug
gestion of the powers and will be sent
with the object of terminating all mis
understandings between Austria-Hungary
and Servia. First, however, it. together
with the former note to Austria, will be
submitted t th national assembly for
approval.
King Peter Issued a ukase today chang
ing the names of his sons. The step Is
taken to provide for the name of George
as tha hssd of the house of Karageorge-
vlleh. The former Crown Prince Gorge,
who renounced hla rights to ths throne,
will henceforth be known -as Alexander,
while Alexander, George's younger brothsr,
who ha been recognised as crown prince.

BUDAPEST, March SL In the Hungar
ian Parliament today Premier Wekerle
alluded In the warmest terms to th al
ii am-.s wtth Germany, which had shown
th greatest self sacrifice and devotion to
Austria-Hungary. This country must be
faithful to that alliance, he said, a It
protected Its Interests and formed th bul
wark of peace tn Europe.
Replying to Interpol kat tons concerning th
eoonernta relations between Servia and Aus
tria-Hungary, the premier said that nego
tiations were proceeding which It 'waa
hoped would bring about an agreement
on the most favorable conditions. With re
gard to Montenegro', he added, the limita
tion of the sovereignty, which 1 provided
for in article 20 of the treaty of Berlin,
this limitation would be removed If It could
b arranged.
Servians Mar Not Dlsarsa.
VIENNA. March Sl.-Th Internal situa
tion In Servia Is being watched here with
anxiety. It Is feared that the position of
the Karageorgevitch dynasty Is by no
mean serious and it Is doubtful whether
the Servian bands will disarm without dis
turbances. Consequently Austria will main
tain a strong fore on the frontier for the
present.

tents are not Hv1n up to the letter of the
verbal agreement they made with him at
the time of the fight on the house rules
at the beginning of th present session. At
that time the "Insurgents" are said to have
pledged themselves not to oppose the tariff
bill If the president would agree to keep
his hands off th fight to revise the rules.
This arrangement was agreeable to Mr.
Taft. Now the house leaders claim the
"insurgents" are not only opposing the bill,
hut are making combiuaUons with the
democrats to the extent of threatening the
effectiveness of $he measure. They say
they eannot put the bill through In satis
factory shape until the "insurgents" are
wiped out of line.
It is ssid that President Taft has been
urged to use his influence with the repub
licans who are helping to endanger the
bill, of abandoning their attitude. It Is
declared that only In this way can a defi
nite arrangement be made or a limitation
be placed opon debate and amendments.
The president is considering the matter.
According to opinions expressed at the
White House today the president will find
conditions more favorable in ths senate
than In the house. He Is said to have re
ceived the assurance of the leaders there
that they are in sympathy with him and
will uphold his policy to the best of their
ability. The president himself stated a day
or two ago that he had been assured that
the senate was agreed upon the maximum
and minimum principal of the Payne bill.

"I was a coffe flehd-a trembling, nerv

that the coffee' tasted fine but my sister
did not tell me I was drinking Postum for
fear I might not. take any more.
"She kept th secret and kept giving m
