Czar Slips Toward Death Heir Named Michael in Russia
Dispatches from Livadia report the czar’s condition worsened with a new imperial decree naming Grand Duke Michael the third son as heir to the throne in succession to Grand Duke Nicholas. The Grand Duke George’s claim fades as doctors warn of a possible death as Berlin and Paris relay grim updates on the imperial family crisis. In Philadelphia massed tributes for Major General George B. McClellan open as civic leaders attend the unveiling. Separate reports recount a Mississippi murder where a wife is killed and a man wounded, and a Kansas lynch mob forming after a 14 year old girl is assaulted.
