LONDON October 15th.-The Seryian
army is moving toward Sofia A Bulgarian
| envoy gives as the reasons why the Ser
vians are not about attacking Bulgaria :
First, that the powers are practically agreed
upon the Bulgarian union, and will not
give Servia anything out of Bulgaria.
Second, If anything is given ont of Bull
garia, Prince Alexander would. greatly lose
prestige among his subjects This Austria
is most anxious TO avoid, as any successor
to Alexander would be Russian agent
Austria will bring a pressure upon King
Milan TO prevent this. Third, there is UNI
doubleday an agreement between Greece
and Servia, but If Servia attacks Bulgaria
Greece will be left alone to cope with
Turkey, which shells utterly unable TO do
Therefore, the envoy said, the moment
Sofia is attacked the present union will be-
come an intimate fusion of the two coun-
tries; but King Milan must fight or lose
mis- throne. He applied to Austria for adj
vice, and was told.he might mobilize his
army. Having done that, he cannot stop.

powers to fight it out alone
