49, regarding the precise meaning of
Bulgaria's last note to the pow
ers, explanations have been given to
some diplomatic agents here that the
memorandum was not intended ulti-
matum. but was rather in the nature of
an appeal for the Intervention of the
great powers before that Intervention
should be too late. The Bulgarian Min
istry, it was stated, was determined to
maintain its attitude of neutrality up to
the last moment, but it feels the impos-
sibility of standing by indefinitely while
the Turks exterminate the Bulgarian ele-
ment in Macedonia
The Governments position is rendered
increasingly difficult by the attitude Of
the Macedonia population in Bulgaria,
which, vigorously backed up by the rev.
olutionary committees, is persistently en-
deavoring to force the Governments hand
and provoke hostilities with Turkey.
A special dispatch from the monastery
of Ria, Bulgaria, says the condition of
the Turkish garrison of Molnik. sixty-five
miles northeast of Salonica, is believed to
be extremely critical. 1t is besieged by
bands of insurgents under the leadership
of Yankoff. Stoyanoff, Davinghoff and
Zografoff, all of whom were formerly
Bulgarian officers. The Insurgents num-
ber 1900, while the garrison is believed to
consist of only one battalion. Melnik is
a very important strategic point in the
mountains, commanding the road between
Demir- -Hassar and Razlog. The Turks
have withdrawn nearly all their forces
from the districts Of Danaoumana and
Razloe to send to the relief of Melnik.
AS a consequence unusual tranquility
prevails throughout the district of Raz-
log. where the authorities, lacking the
support of the troops. have ceased their
policy of persecution and the beys are
even supplying bands with food The
Turkish population is described as being
in a state of great CONSERVATION.
