TURKEY NOT SATISFIED.
Discomfort in Constantinopie Over the Fro
ceedlnss of the Congress,

BERLIN, June PA despatch from Con-
stantlnople says the dissatisfaction there at the
progress Of affairs at the Congress is increasing.
1t causes somo surprise and easness that the
representatives OF Turkey in the Congress arc
not showing the resistance expected OF them.
They have hitherto merely stated their point Of
view. and allowed 1t to bo overruled without
much fighting. so 1t seems doubtful whether
they have really acouiesced in the settlements
made or are meditating something else.
Reports current in diplomatic circles here
confirm the statement that the Austrian occupa-
tion Of Bosnia is imminent Until three days
ago the proposal for tho occupation OF Bosnia
and Herzegovina by Austrian troops was entire
ly disapproved by the Congress. but total
change Of views has since occurred. and tho
powers are now resolved TO empower Austria
TO occupy those provinces.
Roumania having refused n large money In
demnity Tor the rotrocession OF Besearabia. and
having also refused the proposal TO divide Bess-
arabia into two parts. Russia now proposes.
through Prince Bismarck, that Prince Charles
should become the future Prince OF Bulgaria.
This Is opposed by Roumaninn statesmen. but
they express fear that Prince Charles will ac-
cept the offer for dynastic reasons.
