CLASH BETWEEN TURKS AND Bull
GAR1ANs.-Advices from Bulgaria, Ser
via. and Macedonia reflect the disappoint-
m.nt felt there regarding the illusory
nature of the Austro- Russian scheme of
Macedonian ref,rms which the Sultan
has agreed to. Consular dispatches from
Salonica report serious encounters be-
tween Turkish troops and bands Of Bull
garians in the Uskub district, many being
killed on both sides.
The Geneva correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Chronicle telegrarhs thatnews
has been received there of an engagement
between Turkish troops and bodies OF
Macedonians and Bulgarians near Mon
astir. The Turks suffered arepulse. After
the fighting thirty-two dead and many
wounded men were found.
Advices from Petersburg say that some
publicists are of the opinion that only
the strongest language to Turkey can pre-
vent war between Russia and Turkey IN
the spring. They believe that Turkey
will pursue bands of Macedonian reyolu-
tionists across the Bulgarian frontier, and
that public opinion will compel Russia
to interfere. The Russians thoroughly
understand that war with Turkey will
be more severe one than that of 1878.
Officers are quoted as saying thatthe Turk
ish army is the best in the world, owing
to its German organization and armament
There is an inclination TO anticipate Ger
man financial support of Turkey, and
in view of the situation, forebodings OF
clash with Turkey are freely expressed il
private, although they are carefully sup
nressed in the newspapers.

The Acre dispute seems to have
broken out afresh. kccording to cable
advices. Brazil now make demand for
81, 450 square miles of the territory and
has sent squadron to enforce the de-
mand.
It is feared by the State Department
in Washington that open hostility will
grow out of the situation, which was
thought to be in fair way of settle
ment, since all parties to the dispute
had agreed to refer it to The Hague
tribunal.
In manner the United States is in
terested in this dispute beyond its desire
to prevent war in South America, since
it was to an Anglo-American syndicate
that Bolivia agreed 10 turn over the
fiscal government of the Acre territory,
TO which such strenuous objection was
made at the time by Brazil, and which
action was the beginning OF the dispute
between the two countries over the mat
ter of sovereignty.
In February, 1902, the BOLIVIAN Con-
gress authorized the execution OF con-
tract in London between Bolivia and an
Anglo American company turning over
the entire fiscal government OF the Acre
territory to the syndicate. Brazil I'M
mediately showed opposition, made
claim to the entire Acre territory ana
demanded the cancellation OF the con-
tract under the threat that if Bolivia
refused she would close all of the trlbu-
taries of the Amazon river, would iomeht
disturbances in Acre and would impose
duties on all goods exported from Acre.
On the other hand, Brazil offered, IN
case the contract was cancelled, to give
Bolivia assistance in the development OF
the Acre territory and to make and ratiiy
a treaty of commerce and free naviga-
ton with Bolivia, and there wss also
some suggestion that Brazil might pay
for Bolivia any compensation demanded
of her for the cancellation of the con-
tract.
In view of the fact that the concession
was granted by Bolivia in good faith,
she positively refused to accede to the
demands of Brazil, with the result that
revolution took place in the Acre ter
ritory, and Brazil imposed cumulative
duties of 221 per cent. on crude rubber,
which is the principal product of Acre.
1t is admitted by Pan-American diplo-
mates that the situation in South
America is serious, and equally with the
United States they are anxious that an
amicable settlement be reached. No
information ca ]. yesterday concerning
Boliyia's answer to the Brazilian demand,
but it is believed in Washington that her
national integrity requires her to appeal
to arms. If Brazil obtains possession OF
the Acre territory, even Professionally,
she will evacuate only with the greatest
reluctance, and Bolivia and Peru do moi
forget the action ofEngland with respect
to Egypt.
