SURVIVORS TELL
 OF THE EXPLOSION
FIFTEEN PERSONS LOST THEIR LIVES ON HUNGARIAN STEAM FER VASkAPU-WoRk OF BuL. GARIAN REvoLuTIoNIsTs.

Constantnople, September 6.-The sur vivors of the Hungarian steamer Vas kapu, which was destroyed in the Black Sea September 1 by explosions, attributed to the Bulgarian revolutionists, while on her way from Varna, Bulgaria. to Con- # Ear tineSle, state that two explosions occurred on board the steamer at o'clock last Tuesday morning. Two dynamite bombs were thrown by men, supposed to have embarked at Varna, one in the stoke hold and the other under the bridge.
 The whole bridge. with the captain and the two mates, were blown off, while the stoke hold was wrecked and an appren- tice killed.
 The explosions were followed by an outbreak of fire in the forehold. Alto gether fifteen persons lost their lives, but all the engineers and most of the passengers were saved. The crew be- haved with great gallantry.
 Private adyices from Adrianople report that the troops in the Kirk -Kilsse dis trict are treating the inhabitants with great rigor. Every Bulgarian village furnishing recruits to the insurgents has been bombarded and destroyed, the in- habitants being given barely time to es- cape. In the villayet of Monastir equal severity is shown.
 There has been a heavy fall in Turkish securities during the past two days on the unfounded rumor that the Turkish troops had crossed the Bulgarian from tier.

.Runored That Panama OGIe- gates Have Withdrawn
 from the Senate
ALL BUT ONE ARE IN
 FAVOR OF THE TREATY
Action of lsthmian Representatives May be Protest at Present Oppo- sition, and May Foreshadow
 Secession from Colombia.

Washington. September 6-Anxious over the reports which have reached Wash ington that ;he delegates from the de-
 partment of Penama have withdrawn from the sessions of the Colombian con gress at Bogota, Dr. Herran, tho acting minister of Colombia here, today tele- graphed to the governor of Panama for information on the subject. Dr. Herran diacredits the report as the advices from his government have given no notice of such action.
 The three senators from Panama, with one exception are in favor of the treaty, end the six members of the house of representatives have assiduously worked for its ratification. Their defecton at this time, Dr. uerran realizes. would be a serious blow to the prospects for rat ificstion The enc Panama senator who has opposed the treaty has never lived in Panama, although elected 10 the higher body from that department. The defec- ton of the Panama delegates, it is sue- gested here, might be in the nature or protest over the attitude of the oppo- sition to the treaty with the possibility or SeCeSSlO1 lTC!l the SoNNih ment
 Dr. Herran still clings to the hope that a way will be found whereby the present treaty will be ratified. He lays much stress on the possibility that the senate may agree to a measure to be subse- quently passed by the house, where there is said to be majority for the treaty, giving President Marraquin authority to negotiate directly an instrument along the lines of the present treaty.
 President Marroquin Is known to be heartily in favor of the treaty as it now is drawn and, if he were duly authorized
 to do so, the confident belief of Dr. Her ran is that the treaty would be reatifed. The interruption to cable communication with Bogota has been a source of irri- taton alike to the state department and to the Colombian legation officials. It has developed that United States minis ter Beaupre at Bogota failed to receive dispatches sent to him by the state de- partment between July 2i and August 15. At this time when the United States government is anxious to communicate fully with MT Beaupre this interruption Is particularly annoying and pr. Her
 ran has asked the proper officials in Co., lombia to investigate the cause therefor.

BULGARIA WILL
 STAY NEUTRAL f Challenged to War Will
 Accept FearIess|y INTENTIONS ARE PEACEFUL
Ministers Confident of Their Country's Ability to Cope With the Turks, But Think lnterventions of
 Powers Necessary.

Sofia, Bulgaria. September 6.-Accord- ing to reliable reports from Varna, at the recent council of ministers presided ovec by Prince Ferdinand at the Palace of Euxinograd it was resolved that Bull garia should continue to maintain an at titude of the strictest neutrality in the Macedonian question and, further, that the most stringent measures should be adopted to prevent anything likely to cause a disturbance in Bulgaria's rela- tions with Turkey
 The war minister Is reported to have spoken strongly in the council against any thought of Bulgaria declaring war on Turkey; first on account of the enor- nous expenditure that such war would involve; and. secondly because the great powers would never permit Bulgaria to reap the advantage if she were victori- ous. Should Turkey attack Bulgaria, de- clared the minister. the present army could hold Turkey in check for the first few days. while the entire Bulgarian army could be moblized within three to twelve days.
 Ck Bulgaria Fearless.
 Bulgaria would never declare war he added. but if war was declared against her, she would accept the challenge fear lessly.
 As an evidence of Bulgarias peaceful intentions the council decided that upon the first symptoms of disorder on the frontier martial law would be proclaim ed at Burgas, Kostendi Phiilp.lois and Sofia. The ministers expressed the opin- lon that the powers would soon reach the conviction that the Macedonian quesHpsS could not be decided without their inter- vention
