Last night symptoms of cerebral af-

considered dangerous. He had d
very high fever and was in
comatose state. The wounded
man had lost so much blood as a result
of his wounds that it was, his physicians
said, impossible for him to rally.
In an interview with Prince Ferdinand
of Bulgaria, at Carlsbad, the prince re-
pudiated the charge that he or the Bull

that they melted the plotters Since the
resignation of the government. be said,
he had urged NJ. STAN buloff to 60 abroad
and he had refused.
The government then watched him
and warned him not to visit certain
places and not to go without an armed
escort. When the committee of the So
branje later desired that ii. Stam bulOff
should be forbidden to leave the country,
Prince Ferdinand had only reluctantly
consented.
He thought. that the assaiIants of the
ex-premier were Macedonians. There was
no question of Russian influence in the
case. The government would exert
every effort to discover the assassins and
their inciters.
