erecting Notifications between Pirot and
Nissa.

council OF war was held there to-day,
King Milan, Col. Horvatovitch and the
Austrian Gen. Albori were present. 1t is
reported that Gen. Albori insisted upon
the Servians maintaining a defensive
position until they are strongly rein
forced in case war shall be resumed.
Austrian transports of all kinds are going
TO the front, and feverish feeling exists.
Active military preparations are pro-
crossing.
RUss0-BULGARIAN FRIENDSHIP.
ST. PETERSBURG. Dec. 2.-The Journal
de 50. Petersburg, referring to the imperial
order published yesterday praising the
prowess OF Bulgaria, says: 'Russia has
never ceased to sympathize with the Bul-
garian people. 1t is impossible, however,
to forgot those who deceived the expecta-
tions Of Russia, ignored her counsels,
precipitated Il iratricidal war, imperiled
Bulgaria's destinies and assumed heavy
responsibility"
An official newspaper states that the
imperial order strikingly proves that
moral bonds still knit Russia and Bull
garia.
The SUet, the military organ, recon-
mends that commission be appointed TO
inunGt % a a fhn ~ bo vI
garian government, filed at the foreign
office.
The NoU0e VreDlyd says: 'The impe-
rial order, confirming the ties OF friend
ship between Russia and Bulgaria, must
terminate the differences from which Rus
eia's rivals were inclined to make CAPT
tall" 1t concludes by hoping that this
step Of the Car will be rightly under
stood and appreciated in Bulgaria, Lon
don and Vienna.
TURKEY ENTERS RoUNELIA.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Dec. 2.-The Porte
gave notice to the Balkan Conference to-
day OF impending military action on the
part of Turkey IN Eastern ROumelia.
A council of Turkish generals was held
and they advised permanent occupation
of the Balkans by Turkey, fearing that
Russia would absorb Bulgaria, and Aus
tria do the same with Servia. Turkish
troops are entering Eastern ROumelia,
near the Bulgarian frontier. The troops
are wearing ordinary head-gear instead
of the fez.

THE PoRTE's AGENTS.
PHILIPPOPOLIs, Dec. 2.-The govern

THE ONLY CHANCE FOR PEACE.
NIssA, Dec. 2.-Col. HOrvatOvitch has
ordered all the retired officers who served
under his command during the last Turk
sh war to go to the front. It is cOnsid-
cred that the only chance that exists for
preventing an extension OF the conflict is
the formation OF Cabinet under Nj. Ris-
tics, formerly Prime Minister, whose
policy is TO confne the h0stilities within
its present limits.
