The kidnapping of Prince Alexander.
To the Editor of the LeH.i~r:
What were ;he causes and circumstances of
the deposition of Prince Alexander. Of Bul- .
garia. The dispatches have been So dis jninted 1

Russian intrigue and influence have al p,
ways been active in Bulgarian affairs. and |
Russian party have ramhcations in all /
the principal cities. The union of Bulgaria .
and Roumel II year ago was di>taSteful to |
the Gar. and ever since that time Russian /
agents have been c"nSpiring for Prince Al !
"Nander'S downfall. \ week before his |
deposition he wrote to his father at Darn /
stadt, that he was 50 undermined by Rus |
sian intrigue that only miracle could save .
him.
On Friday night, Prince Alexander was /
surprised while in bed at Sofia, by a lot OF .
tlICtlN bltShll- ibNll His uDtI. anu ut- !
manding his abdication. They were in .
command of regiment of cavalry. which .
had been Russiamlzed by the use of money. !
All the other troops had been removed from |
the city. Prince Alexander Indignantly /
refused TO sign the abdicatiun presented for |
his signature. He was then taken from |
sofia, which is in the southwestern part of |
Bulgaria. nOrthward to the Danube, placed .
upon steam yacht, and conveyed to Reni. !
in the Russian province of BeSSarabia. |
where he arrived Oh TUESDAY He !
was accompanied on the journey !
by his brother, Prince Francis Joseph. Of /
Battleberg. At Reni he was released |
Reni is about Seventy-iiVe miles from the .
mouth of the Danube. He was given per
mission To proceed from that point TO Aus /
tria. He was placed aboard train, with /
out even a change of clothing, and arriving |
at Lembcrg, in the province of Gaiicia. |
Austro-Ilungary, about 500 miles north |
westerly from Ren, on Friday.
The moment Alexander was out of the !
way. the Russian party at Sofia. formed a /
provisional government, with Mr.. karavo- |
left aS premier, and waited Developments |
The developments came, fast and furious. !
rhe great mass Of the people proved |
to be loyal and devoted To Alexander. !
his bravery anu NhlII AT llt DllIlt O1 /
SlivnitZa. in the Servian campaign, had |
eudeared him to the army, and regiment |
after regiment declared in his favor. His |
StateSmamShip in promoting the union with |,
ROumelia had gained for him the confidence |
or his people and mass meetings were held !
all over the country to denuunCe his kid |
mapping and demand his return. The gov
ernment of karalOvetf was Overthruwn and
it, members thrust into prison, and loyal
ministry formed, with ". StamboulOf at
the head. and General M0ntkorof in com
mand of the army. From Saturday
until Wednesday the whereabouts
of Prince Alexander was un-
known. except to his capI"rs. When he ar
rived at Lembtrg. in Galicia. ne found hun
drrdS of messages awaiting him, contain
ing proIeStatiunS of loyalty and petitions
for his immediate return To Bulgaria.
Russia promptly denied any part in the
kidnapping, but it is morally cert.h that
she was at the bottom of it. The outlook
now Is that Prince Alexander will resume
his place as the ruler of Bulgaria, and that
he will be sustained by the powers. His
conduct. and that OF his people, have
created a great deal Of sympathy in the
principal courts of Europe, and Russian in
trigur, for once. is likely to end in ridicu-
louS failure Cleveland Leader
