SETTLING CONDITION IN THE BALKANS.

Disturbsd Provinces.
London, Eng, April I'm connec-
tion with the collision between Bull.
garian and Turkish frontier guards ut
kozyl-Agob. between Jamboli and
Adrianople, correspondent in Mace
donia writes to the Pail Mall Gaszette
concerning the soothing condition in
the Balkans. He says.
Grave consequences cannot be de-
ferred much longer. The whole PROV
ince is armed and matters are rapidly
drifting into open revolution. The
people are drilling for the coming
struggle and the country is virtually il
a state of siege. Turkish troops have
been pouring into most Of the dis
turbed districts, concentrating chiefly
Id the north, and reinforcements are
arriving daily. Detachments guard the
Oriental Railway from Salonica to
the Servian border, and garrison towns
are packed with soldiers. There is
widespread impression throughout the
land that momentous events are inn
pending. There is a general feeling Of
unrest everywhere; trade is at an abso-
lutte standstill, and the Ottomans are
preparing in grim, deadly earnest be-
cause they are convinced that Bulgaria
is at the bottom of the troubles in
Macedonia, and will certainly actively
support the expected rising, encouraged
by Russian influence. II is estimated
that 100, 600 men are under arms, ready
for action in the immediate repression
of the coming rebellion. ~
