The Embassadors ana the Roumelian
Question.

Tne ambassadors ana the Tsoumelian
Question.
CoNsTANTIEoPLE, October 10th. - The
ambassadors have presented a note to the
Porte in which they say that further time
Wlii have to be offered them, so as TO obtain
complete European understanding respect
ing the Roumelian difficulty, and they ad-
wise the Sultan to continue his peaceful
policy. They do not, however, dispute the
Porte's right to send troops into Roumelia
to assert his rights in that province. 1t is
generally believed that the Powers have
advised Bulgaria, Servia and Greece more
strongly than heretofore TO remain quiet.
The Porte's note regarding the ornaments
of Greece and Servia gave the Powers
ground to protest against their warlike atti-
tude. The report that Greece had offered
to form an alliance with Turkey is un-
founded. The ambassadors have adjourned
their sittings, but will reasscmble shortly,
when II is expected that they will have re-
ceiYed further instructions from their re
spectiye Governments in relation to final
decisions. The Porte considers the note Of
the ambassadors satisfactory, but has init
mated that II will not recognize the Bull
garian union, no matter what the ultimate
result of the Conference may be. Herr
Won RadoWitz, German Embassador, and
NJ. Nelidoff, Russian Embassador, have
refused to see NJ. Petroft and NJ. Tehama-
knH, delegates who have been commits
stoned by Prince Alexander to assure the
Porte that peace and order reigned in
Roumelia.
