LONDON, Nov. 1.-The Cabinet to-day,

cided to instruct Sir William White, the
British Ambassador at CoustantinOple, to
insist upon an immediate conference at
Constantinople to consider the Bulgarian
question and to demand the suspension OF
Russian diversion, diplomatic and active,
pending the decisions Of such conference.
The Porte IS renewing It's entente COR
dale with England. and is in favor of the
proposed conference. Italy concurs.
while Russia and France oppose the
PROJECT. Germany and Austria remain
neutral.
Prince Coma, half brother of King
Milan, has become a candidate for the
| Bulgarian throne. He Is relative of M.
/ de Giers, the Russian Foreign Minister.
The Cabinet Council to-day discussed
| little except the Bulgarian aud Egyptian
| questions. 1t is believed the government
will shortly send circular to the powers,
| explaining the final position Of Egypt. If
Russia refuse to recognize the Sobranje's
| candidate for the Bulgarian throne, Eng
land Will probably propose conference
to consider the whole question. The
! Ministers are not inclined to call Parlia-
ment before the middle of January. They
will come to a final decision on this ques-
| ton on Saturday.

revise the standing order for the closing

| kOttites appeared for the purpose of pro-
| testing against the illegalitY of the assem-
| bly,. The Sobranie opens with a despond-
| ent feeling. In view of EurOpe's apathy
to Bulgarian interests 1t is believed to be
! useless to struggle against Russia's as
! cendancy, and Bulgaria Is willing to
accept almost any terms of compromise.

| pIeases."
HUNGARY ALMOST BANKRUPT.
| PEsTH, Nov. 1.-Semi-official papers
admit that the finances Of Hungary are in
! a critical state. Opposition papers bluntly
! talk of bankruptcy, and estimate the de-
! ficit in next years budget at 100000
! forins. Although the government esti-
! mates shortage OF 22,O0O,O00 forms in
! the budget subm tied Saturday, it is

! O0O.0J0 fOrins, 1t is TumOred that NJ.

THE FEELING AT ST. PETERSBURG.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. both the
| NOyoe NTemya and NovOsti declare that
the opening OF the Sobranje is a fresh
| anti-Russlan demonstration, which jeop-
ardiZ the success OF Gen. kaulUars'
negotiations with the Bulgarian govern
| ment and may render the dispatoh OF
| Russian men-of-war to Vagna fruitless.
! The NovOe Vremya says the Bulgarian
people are not political factor to be
! reckoned with. The army of Bulgaria.
which is the only existing power
/ that has hitherto been controlled
| by the Regency, might be reduced TO
! a band of armed political adventurers.
VINO would not shrink from most despe-
| rate measures TO save themselves and
| their InstigatOrs at Sophia. Continuing,
! the paper saws: "a settlement TO con-
form with Russia's mentions must not
! cost Russia more than the matter is
worth. The future depends on finishing
! in one way or another With the Regency.
! We believe that the best course TO pursue
! is TO discontinue, forth with, negotiations
with the Regency. Enough words have
been wasted and now Russia must act"
PEACE PRoTEsTATIoNs.
The official press asserts that it is an
entire misconception to attribute the
restitution OF diplomatic relations with
France to an agreement DaGed on a COM
mon policy against England. Russia,
official organs say, does not desire 10 take
the initiative IN any coalition against
England. and there is no chance that the
warlike cOunsels given Russia by certain
papers will be followed unless the course
adopted by other powers should compel
the government TO abandon the pAciic
views which form the basis of its present
policy.
ENGLAND'S DETERMINATION.
CAIRO, Nov. lit IL UflcIally an
nounced that the English government is
determined 10 maintain public safety In
Egypt, and not leave the country TO dis
! Order and possibly TO fresh ana disastrous
revolution.
