LONDON, oct 28.-The Vienna corTespo n lent OF
The Daily Telegraph sends the following dispatch
tonight:
" The two small ships which Russia has sent to
the bulgarian PORT Of VAN, promise TO figure r"n
spicuously in tne history OF the pending Eastern
Crisis oel tam number of Their will in all
probability be landed to protect the nervous gen.
tleman who represents Russia at that port. One of
the evening papers here pub ishes a telegram from
Rustchuk stating that the Russian cOnsuls at
Varna and Burghas have received notice that gun
boats will also be sent to protect them and the
Russian subjects whose interests they guard. The
telegram adds that it is believed the Russian YES
sells will winter in Bulgarian waters after landing
the troops that boarl. If this be accom-
plished even only at Varna, Russia will have got
in the thin edge of the occupation wedge and the
rest will merely 3e a question of few weeks.
"Of course the Powers will not make any
fuss about the landing OF II few Russian troops
or sailors at Varna and of course NJ. de
Gers is doubtless happy to be able to
reassure the Powers the score of the occupa-
ton. Ii suits all of them 10 accept this explana-
ton and Austria more particularly, because, as
everybody must admit, there can he no objection in
making difficulties ut the very moment when the
delegations are about to meet. The Russian Official
gazette has not yet announced that q landing
would be effected, but ii mas accounted for the
dispatch of gunbOats 10 Bulgaria by the alleged
lll-treatment of Ru'' ian subjects. That, however
would appear to imply some slight exaggeration.
The ilI-treatment complained of amounts to this !:
There was disturbance at yarna in the course of
General Kaubars's stay there in which some
twenty peasants, including two Russians, took
part. They were Justify cudgeed by the police
ani some Of them went home with broken heads
while tifteen including the two Russians, were
arrested the following lay. The Russian
Consul made Il great stir and obtained the release
for the statement of the Russian official gazette
The population at, Varna has naturally been
thrown into state of excitement by the arrival
OF The two gunb0ats ani it has been found prudent
to guard the Russian Consulate. Many OF the
wealthy inhabitants have left the town..
THE pOstponement for q few days OF the opening
OF the Great Sobranjo is repTe-ented IN some quar-
ters to be symptOmatc of cOnciliatory dispostio
on the part of the Bulgarian Government At
fact that many of the county members have not
yot arrived. There hardly be any question of
conciliation the authorizes intend to proclaim
the state of siege at Sophia Nor is this aston sh
ing | hear that General Kaulbars is carrying on
in just the same way as before This extraordinary
diplomttic agent, VIII officially intimated to the
Bulgarian Ministry that all intercourse between
his Government and them was to be suspended,
hands them angry note day, and sometimes
dream of occupation. General Kau bars eagerly
looks forward to the moment when the country
will be in the hands OF the Cars troops, and as the
General is IN direct communication with his I'm
perial Master he may be trusted to know something
of what is likely 10 happen"
