Berlin, June 2.-[Copyright. 1894, by the
Associated Press. Europe in general,
and Germany in particular, has been
treated to two genuine sensations this
week. and both of them have been re-
garded, as likely to have serious results
The first of these was the announcement
by the Reichsanzeiger yesterday that an
operation had been performed upon En-
peror William. and that a small tumor
had been cut from his cheek.
The second startling piece of news was
contained in the dispatches from Sofia,
which announced that a revolution of
some magnitude had broken out in Bull
garia as the result of the fall of the
Stambouloff cabinet.
1t now appears that Professor Berg
mann, assisted by Professor Leuthold
and Professor Schauge, at Potsdam yes
terday morning, removed from the En-
peror's left cheek an atheroma, or encys-
ted tunor containing crusty matter.
about the size of a cherry, in less than
FIVE minutes, and without the use of
drugs. There was very little bleeding and
the patient showed no feverish symptoms
before or after the operation and was
very little affected by it. The tumor, it
is added, was the growth of only a few
months. and it is asserted upon the au-
thority of the emper0r'S physicians that 1t
had no connection whatever with the old
ear trouble which has been the subject
of so many sensational rumorS for
years past. The emperor was extremely
DESTROYS that no alarming reports should
be circulated concerning his health, and
he retired at 1920 last night and slept
soundly throughout the night. The en-
peror's appetite was good.
The second sensation, the trouble in
Bulgaria, is undoubtedly a matter which
may turn out lots more serious than
people are generally willing to admit. All
sorts of rumors are in circulation re-
garding the state of affairs at Sofia.
I Civil war is said to have broken out, a
portion of the Bulgarian troops, accord
! ing to report, has revolted in favor OF
ex-Pren1ier Stambouloff, and the latter
and his cabinet are reported to be under
arrest. Owing to the censorship over
press dispatches from Bulgaria, some
time may elapse before the exact situa-
| ton becomes known but 1T is denied that
serious rioting has resultedi that the
military has taken sides for and against
! Prince Ferdinand; that Russia may see
| in the present disturbances an opportun-
ity to interfere in the affairs of south
! eastern Europe, and that this may lead
| to grave complications.
/ The Novo Vremia has given the key
, note of the situation from the Russian
standpoint by its semi-of1cial announce
ment that the present state or aHalrS
! in Bulgaria cannot be permitted TO con
! tinue whatever may be the result Oh lne
] conflict between Prince Ferdinand and
ex-Premier Stambouloff.
| Inquiries made in official circles here.
| however, show the Bulgarian crisis is
not regarded with alarm here. 1t is as
serted the new cabinet is composed OF
responsible men, who are not nkely 10

complicati tons
The present week has been notable for
military events. On Tuesday, Emperor
| William had a sort of trial review or
his three sons, Prince Frederick William.

preparatory to the entry of the latter

year on July IA next.
