THE POLITICAL WORLD OF EUROPE.
Two Things That Have Recently Disturbed

A special cable dispatch from Paris to the
New York Herald says:
Two new things have disturbed the political
world In the week that has Just closed They
are the affair in Morocco and the quadrupie
execution in Bulgaria.
| More and more 1t becomes evident that In
Morocco England Is DESTROYS Of creating diff
culties. The rest of Europe has perfect RICH,
to refrain from signing treaty with England.
! 1t IL impossible to consider this refusal o. q
casus belli, as some journals are trying to make
out and even some diplomatists.
ENGLAND AND FRANCE
Besides, fresh outbreaks against Europeans
are announced, and thus is seen the necessity
for Intervention. Every expedition 30 far,
although organized on the old lines, has been q
success.
But England should labor under no delusion.
France will never permit the Moorish question
to be settled unless she has something to say in
the adjustment. France has more rights in
Moorish affairs than England has. The English
government has no interest in its internal
Affairs, although she has In international matters
The frontiers Of Algeria and Morocco adjoin,
and thus the interests Of France and Morocco
are closely allied.
THE BULGARIAN EXECUTIONS.
The events in Bulgaria are very serious, as
you know. Minister StambuIo6 has hanged
four Of his political adversaries upon the pre-
tense that they had taken part in q conspiracy
against himself. This allegation is absolutely
untrue. The truth is these persons were exc
cuted because they were the friends Of Russia.
EUROPE REvoLTs.
1t is therefore a direct insult to the car.
More than that It is assassination pure and
simple and not legal process. The whole Of
Europe revolts against Minister Stambuloff in
Producing into Europe the savage customs Of
other ages.
General contempt is also expressed for Prince
Ferdinand Of Bulgaria for not committing the
sentences and permitting his name to be linked
with such u crime. He had not even the cour-
age to remain at home when such atrocities
were being committed. He went off to Bay
reuth to hear "Parsifal'' while four innocent
persons were being executed in his own coun-
try.
THE POWERS SHOULD INTERFERE.
Therefore, it would seem that the hour Is at
hand when Russia should demand that Europe
again interfere in Bulgaria. 1t would
be lawful to depose Prince Ferdinand, who is
the puppet Of Turkey, without any power or
authorization Of the signatory powers OF the
Berlin treaty.
II the triple alliance wishes to sustain Prince
layed. which has been so much feared, must
break forth, and that is the reason why Russia
is waiting.
SUPPRESS THE FOOLS.
But putting aside all diplomacy and looking
at the political situation calmly i. must be said
that the drama enacted at Sofia proves that tho
peace Of Europe Is menaced by NJ. Stambuloff
1t has always been said that from this side will
come the first cannon shot
1t would be u simple act of prudence and in
ure to the general we'll being to take away from
those idiots the power to repeat in 1882 the
political tragedy Of st. Bartholomew.
VICTORIA AND WILLIAM.
It Is probable that the interview between
Queen Victoria and Emperor William will take
place on Monday at Cowes and that then the
Bulgarian affair will be mentioned and the en-
tire situation take on @ new aspect.
BISMARCK AND PROSECUTION.
hope also that they will talk about the stu
alton as regards Prince Bismarck. Diplomatists
believe that prosecution of the prince is in
evitable and that the result sought by Bismarck
will be attained. The emperor may be able to
bring about a conviction, but that will not in
the least lessen the popularity of the prince. II
would not be doubtful and William would be
beaten.
Already in southern Germany the sympathy
of everybody is with the cd chancellor. In
Europe the whole conduct of the emperor is
blamed. No one would have believed that the
founder of the German empire would be treated
thus at the end of life SO intimately connected
with the glory Of Germany.
