in the way of Alexander's remaining at Sofa.

bear Russia's wrath without prejudice to the in
tcSeats of Bulgaria: therefore it behooves news

matte skill can close it. One of the papers says:

securing her present and future interests, and
that will be impossible while Bulgaria is allowed
to increase at the expense of other nations, and
while Greek claims on Turkish provinces re-
main unsatisfied If Turkey and Bulgaria desire
an alliance with Greece they must offer tangi-
BILE advantages"
