Consul Mueller and Servian King Reports Prompt Mixed Reactions
In London a December 26 dispatch explains Secretary Bayard’s formal stance on Consul General Mueller’s report. Versus Vienna and Belgrade, commentaries stress a diplomat’s duty to report freely and defend a German consul’s right to critique policy. The Servian army faces discipline issues, royal threats to King Milan, and calls for reform under General Horvatovitell amid potential renewed hostilities. A separate note from Nanticoke updates mine rescue efforts, while Cleveland reports the suicide of Max Schultz, an itinerant insurance agent, and the distressing scene with his German-born parents and American connections.
