A State Trial in Montenegro

By Mrs. Herbert Vivian.

The recent State trial for high treason at Cetinje was a most sensational affair, the prisoners—many of them ex-Ministers and politicians of high rank being accused of a conspiracy to destroy the Montenegrin Royal Family root and branch. Mrs. Vivian was the only woman present, and her photographs were the only ones taken. Her description of the trial, with its picturesque environment and mediæval atmosphere, will be found extremely interesting.
