ALEXANDER OF BULGARIA. INsULTED.
London, Aug. 24-Authantio dia-
patches from Sofia show that the deput
alton Of Prince Alexander, of Bulgaria
was accomplished during last night.
According to the advices from one
thoroughly familiar with the facts, a
remnant OF cavalry VAS detained In the
city after night fall, when the other
troops retired to their barracks. This
regiment was perfectly under the control
of the revolutionists and surrounded the
palace about two hours past midnight.
The prince was in bed, and the palace
was closed, but revolutionary leaders
with the assistance of the soldiers, forced
their way into the building, went to the
princes ante chamber, aud had him
aroused. Then they blnntly made known
to him tbs purpose of their intrusion.
He was stunned, having been taken un-
awares. When he recovered his self
control and realizs cd the utter helpless
ness OF his situation, he bitterly re-
preached his captors for their treachery
What followed is still rather obscure.
The revolutionists declare that Alex
ander signed a formal ebdication of the
throne. Others however assert that he
firmly declined to sign the abdication,
and in consequence of his refusal, he
was made q prisoner, and confined IN a
remote prison, being told that he would
be kept there until he had complied
with the demands Of the re~volutionists.
ID Is said that the prince was removed
from Sofia under O strong cavalry escort
Tong before daybreak. The people did
not become acquainted with even the
fact of the eoup-d.etat until several hours
after the prince had been removed from
his palace. The kilograms from Widden
sald that advices received there from
Bulgaria state that there is much
discomfort among the Bulgarian troops
over q change in the government, and
that q large proportion OF the troops are
disposed to restore Alexander.
