BELGRADE MOURNS
DEATH OF PATRIARCH. POLICE GUARD CATHEDRAL. MOURNERS PASS ALL DAY. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegrap’v—Copyright.) Received Juty 28, 11.15 a.m. BELGRADE, July 27. Tension underlies the city’s deep mourning for the Patriarch Varnava, past .-whose bier mourners defiled all day. City police, to whom the populace is less hostile, have replaced the gendarmerie near the cathedral, but the gendarmerie were truculently swinging their truncheons in full force at the fashionable Promenade of St. Michael. Thousands of leaflets have been circulated adjuring members of the Orthodox Church to defend the Church against the Pope as they defended it against the Kaiser and against the Sultan.
The funeral on June 29 is expected to yield scenes comparable with King Alexander’s obsequies in 1934.
