Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 SKOPJE, Macedonia Three policemen have been killed and about 100 Macedonians abducted or held hostage in a sudden escalation of violence in the volatile Balkan country. After the first serious clashes since Macedonia's peace agreement was signed in August its Western overseers were scrambling to contain the crisis before it spiralled out of control and wrecked the accord. "We will do all we can today to calm the situation and get the political process back on track," an EU diplomat told Reuters on Monday. Bloodshed erupted on Sunday after special police units crossed unguarded cease-fire lines and secured an alleged mass grave site for exhumation while arresting a number of former ethnic Albanian guerrillas. EXTRA INFORMATION Macedonia: Hurdles to peace The three policemen who died were members of a special unit called "the Lions," police sources told the Associated Press. Another two policemen were seriously wounded in an ambush by ethnic Albanian rebels near the village of Trebos in the Tetovo area, the sources said.

     Extractions: Zeno and the Stoics After Alexander died of some mysterious illness or poison at Babylon in June 323 BC, the bodyguards summoned his principal friends and officers. Perdiccas placed on the empty throne the ring Alexander had given him while dying and suggested they wait to see if the pregnant Roxane would give birth to a son who could be king, but Ptolemy and others disliked being ruled by the son of an Asian mother. The general Meleager objected to being ruled by Perdiccas in a regency and walked out to join disgruntled soldiers. To avoid civil war, someone suggested Philip 's son Arrhidaeus could be king as Philip III, and though considered retarded, he had enough presence to prevent imminent fighting; it was agreed that Meleager would be a third general after Craterus and Perdiccas. A barbaric Macedonian ritual was arranged in which a dog was cut in two, and the army was supposedly purified. At the urging of Perdiccas though, Philip III allowed 300 men, who had instigated the discord with Meleager, to be trampled to death by the elephants, and Meleager was later murdered in a temple. It was decided that the king would hold supreme power with Ptolemy satrap in Egypt and Libya, Leomodon in Syria, Philotas in Cilicia, Antigonus in Lycia and greater Phrygia, Cassander in Caria, Menander in Lydia, Leonnatus in western Phrygia, Eumenes in Cappadocia, Pithon in Media, Lysimachus in Thrace, and the eastern provinces were to stay the same. Perdiccas was to command the army for the king. Alexander's body in an elaborate funeral procession was headed for Macedonia, but in Damascus it was diverted to Egypt by Ptolemy.

Fierce shelling was reported in and around the northwestern town of Tetovo in what could have been a last show of force by both sides before the cease-fire was scheduled to take hold.
