NIsA, Sept. 3.--lNew York Herald Cable
Special to the BEE. The following are the
details of the occurrences in Sofia during the
past week: Zankof and Bagdanotf having
perceived through the news, which arrived
from the provinces August %. that the rev.
olution would meet with no success on ac-
count of the attitude taken by the
military and the population, the
latter repeatedly called upon Karavoloff to
take charge of the government. KaravoIotf
accordingly obeyed the summons and took
possession of the government August %. At
the same time Major l'apoff, who had been
previously arrested, occupied with the Alex
ander regiment the telegraph and other pub
lie buildings.
A SERIOUS SITUATION.
The situation is, nevertheless, very serious,
as the rebel regiment and an artillery corps
of twenty-four cannon, are likewise occupy
ing portions of the city and are capable of lev
cling Sofia to the ground. Bagdanoff having
declared that Russia would make mill
tary advance if fighting should occur
in Sofia, Karayaloff, Panoff and Niciproff
began to negotiate and declined to accede to
Papotf's request for permission to attack the
rebels in view of the threatened occupation
of the city by Russian troops. The min
istrys chief purpose Is to avoid the occur
renee of bloody encounters.
THE FINAL RESULT
of these negotiations was that the rebels
abandoned their position near Sofia on Sat
urday and set out unmolested for Bresnik
and Pernik, where they entrenched them
selves. On Sunday Mulkuroff marched
into Sofia with East Roumelian
troops, and at present there are
fronting the rebels a sufficient number of
soldiers to annihilate them. The rebel chief,
Stojanotf, is already beginning to parley,
and truce is soon to be expected When
Mukuroff entered Sofia, RadoslaYotf had
already been substituted in place of
karavoloff.
MANY ARRESTS MADE.
The first action of Mulkurotf was to cause
the arrest of 100 individuals, among them
Zankoff, Burmof, Balabanotf, Banotf, Mkt
narotf, Panotf and Karavelotf. The last three
mentioned have already been released from
prison, but are still confined In their several
places of residence. These arrests, which
had taken place with such promptness,
caused intense excitement, especially that of
Karayclof. He does not appear to be guilty
of the conspiracy against the prince. In
deed, 1t is not clear on what charge he
had been imprisoned, and the JUS
tice of his arrest, therefore, has
been variously commented upon. The
procedure, however, against Clement
Bankoff and associates has been approved
of. Bulgarian officers of high rank in the
army, state that
SEVERE MEASURES MUST BE TAKEN
against the ringleaders, rebellious civilians
and officers. That these have not as yet been
summarily dealt with Is due to the necessity
ofusing the arrested ringleaders as witnesses
against others. The ministers of war,
Nikolaioff ana Radoslayoif. are expected
to-day.
KING MlLAN'S TELEGRAM.
The telegram of King Milan made an ex-
traordinarily good impression and is calcu-
lated to oblterate the previous ugly relations
between Bulgaria and Seryia. The ehival-
rous action of Milan was regarded with
an intense feeling of satisfaction
and has caused declaration on the part Of
the Bulgarians that they would be willing TO
resume amicsble relations with Seryia. The
Hungarian deputaton, consisting of Count
Zicsy and Battysn, was received amid great
joy.
