A SERIOUS MATTER.
Resignation of the Bulgarian Cabinet
Makes Trouble.

New York, Dec. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Vienna, says:
The resignation of the Bulgarian cabi-
net, presided over by Nm. Ivanschof
and Radoslavoff, is regarded in political
circles here as very serious and a very
important event.
The cabinet and SobranJe are in such
perfect harmony that it seems as if there
is nothing left for the prince but to es-
tablish a military dictatorship under his
favorite, Gen. Patrikoff, as the Sobranje
is very unlikely to vote the budget for
any new ministry
The prince is far from being popular
with his subjects and as NJ. Radoslavoff,
the minister of the interior at the pres
ent moment the most prominent polite
ian in Bulgaria, is said to have been con-
eerned in a bribery matter, detected by
Prince Ferdinand himself, it is consider
ed probable that the crisis will cause
serious difficulties for the prince and his
| regime.
It is said that NJ. Radoslavoff demand
ed 10000 francs commission on the con-
tracts for new harbor works.
This money, instead of being sent to
the minister, was sent to Prince Ferdin-
and.
Again, one of the chief government Of
ficials under NJ. Radoslavof received
100000 francs as a bribe for ordering a
number of railway locomotives in
Brunswick When the locomotives ar
rived they were found to be completely
useless.

PORTLAND TO ORIENT.
Navigation Company Seeks to Bill
Cotton Through.

Portland, Ore, Dec. IA special to
the Oregonian from New Orleans, says:
The Oregon Railroad and Navigation
company is arranging to handle cotton
on through bills of lading from New Or
leans via Portland and its own line of
steamships to the Orient Traffic Man
ager Campbell of the company, arrived
here today from Portland for the pur-
pose of looking over the situation and
mapping out a plan. 1t is proposed to
establish an office in New Orleans and
from there send travelling agents
through the cotton country to secure the
business which Mr.. Campbell thinks will
be large in volume. 1t is only been
short while ago that the shipment of
cotton to Japan and China from New
Orleans began, but the growth in the
traffic has been phenomenal and recently
a large number of Japanese cotton buy
ers came here and arranged for largely
increased supplies. Mr.. Campbell is in
close touch with the Oriental trade and
says that a wonderful activity will de-
velop just as soon as the present Chi
nese troubles are settled. He expects to
be ready to handle large cotton ship
ments from New Orleans through the
Portland terminal within so or 80 days.

DRY COLOR COMBINE.
Manufacturers Along This Line Pre-
pairing to Consolidate.

New York. Dec. Negotiations for q
consolidation of manufacturers of dry
colors in this country, which were first
taken up some tifnes ago, haze been re-
newed and a meeting has been called
for December 20, to consider the matter
of perfecting plans.
Mr.. Grille P. Allen. in an interview
says that the consolidation is well I'M
der way.
These colors,'' said Mr. Allen. ''have
been manufactured in the United States
for nearly a century and in Europe dur
ing a much longer period. They are
made from mineral and other earth pro-
ducts and are used more or less in al
most every industry throughout the
world Besides supplying this country,
these products are sent to Spain, Cuba,
Porto Rico, Canada and some of the
European countries. AS the businesses
are now conducted the competition is
very great. Very low prices are made
and sometimes authorizations have been
made in the materials, which in some
cases have not been satisfactory to the
consumers.
