LONDON, Sept. 10.-"Europe is
standing on the edge of a precipice,"
says today a diplomat, who is partic-
ipating in the international negotia-
tl,ns in connection with the Balkan
question.
ou.sarla will be plunged into a war
in spite of all efforts made to prevent
it. though the powers separately have
made strong representations to Bull
garia to desist from aiding the insur-
gents and are on the eve of making
joint demand for the Observance of
pOliey of strict neutrality.
In the meantime, Turkey is becom-
ins encouraged by the attitude OF the
powers toward Bulgaria, and there is
strong feeling among the Moham-
medans for summary vengeance on
the bulgarian people.
The porte has been warned against
engaging in war, and We believe hesi-
tates to embark on a move which may
result in the armed Intervention of
Europe.

situation is fne unGe. standing be-
w cen the powers, all of which we are
sure are upholding Russia and Aus
tria in their efforts to maintain peace.
