Tiszq's answer to the Diet Is said to have

Late dispatches from Vienna report
an extremely excited feeling there. At

Russia will force matters to ar issue at

the Bulgarians will stand firm in de-

SOPHIA, September Both. - General
Kaulbars to-day received a deputation
of prominent Bulgarians, who called
upon him to endeavor to induce him to
withdraw or modify his circular. DR..
Voultcheaff acted as spokesman, and
stated that the circular had surprised the
Bulgarian people, and asked him to re-
consider some of the Russian demands,
particularly that for the postponement Of
the elections two months. In addition
to that modification, the doctor said the
people desired Russia to withdraw her
demand for the immediate raising of the
state of siege, and also the demand for
the instant release of the prisoners in
custody for completely in the coup d'etat.
The Bulgarians, believing that the Gar
had no desire to prolong the crisis,
begged General Kaulbars to telegraph to
hirn TO hasten the choice of Prince.
The Constitution stipulated that the
Grand Sobranie, elected TO select a ruler,
should meet within one month after the
elections.
In conclusion, the deputation assured
General Kaulbars that Bulgaria was
thankful TO the Car for his past protec-
ton, but maintained 5hat the laws OF the
country must be respected. No other
Ministry than that at present in power
could extricate the country from its
crisis
General Kaulbars in reply said; The
Bulgarians know very well that the Gar
has their prosperity at heart. They must
confde in the Gar and carry ont his
wishes.''
DIR. Voultcheaff interrupted General
Kaulbars at this point, and said III
that is all you have to say, we will re-
tire"
The deputation then withdrew.
The Bulgarian Ministry have decided
to postpone their reply to Russia's note.
The Ministers are not willing to fatty
refuse Russia's demands, and have re-
solved to depute and instruct some one
to enter into negotiations with General
Kaulbar with a view to finding some
other method OF settlement between
Russia and Bulgaria.
An Important speech.
PEsrH, September 3Gth.-Prime Min
lister Tisza, replying to interrogations
addressed to the Government in the
Lower House OF the Hungarian Parlia-
ment, said that Austro-Hungary intended
to prevent any single Power from estab- |
fishing protectorate over Bulgaria. |
81 We want independence among the
Balkan States, he continued, without |
counting covetous designs toward any OF |
them. No community of interest exists !
in the Balkans The Austro-German !
alliance continues guarding the mutual |
conditions OF existence without endan- |
gering peace. Austro-Hungary will not |,
allow any single Power to II axe armed |
interference in Bulgaria. Austro-Hun-
gary earnestly intends following this
policy during these critical times"
Herr T.sza commenced by refuting the /
assumption that Austro- Hungary had /
either planned or had been aware OF or
in the slightest degree had approved the /
plan to depose Prince Alexander. No !
agreement whatever exists between /
Austro-Hungary and Russia regarding I.
the execution of their respective infu
ence either in the western or in the
eastern portion OF the Balkan States.
Austro-Hungary firmly adhered to the
Berlin Treaty, which, whilst It is upheld,
sufficiently corresponded with Austro-
Hungary's interests. Austro-Hungary
regulates all desire OF aggrandizement
or conquest, and would concentrate its
efforts to promote the independent de-
velopment Of those States and prevent
the establishment over any OF them Of
