person in town seems to have seen her

SOFIA, Sept. II. While it is
possible that a Turko-Bulgarian
war may even yet be averted, the
probabilities of such an encounter
were never greater than at the
present moment. The note to the
powers, the most decided step yet
taken by the pripcipality, was die
tated not only by the alarming re-
ports of wholesale massacres and
devastation daily arriving, but
even more by the indifference OF
the powers toward the severity Of
Turkeys repressive measures.
People here consider that the
anxiety of the powers seems to be
manifested chiefly in repeated adj
monitions to the Porte to suppress
the revolution with all speed and
energy possible. Telegrams from
Constantinople appear in this
evenings papers asserting that the
ambassadors had urged tic Sui
tan's Government to suppress the
insurrection without any consider
ations of mercy and not to hesi-
tate to burn and destroy the vii
lagos or take any other steps
which might be deemed necessary.
These dispatches, although of
doubtful origin and possibly not
worthy of serious consideration,
are not entirely out of harmony
with reports previously received
here.
The Bulgarian Ministry, there
appears to be little doubt, in face
of the strongest pressure from
within and without, has endeav-
ored to maintain strict neutrality.
but it appears very possible that
the Government may now depart
from this position.

who lives on South Eleventh street, near
Margaret. Since then Miss Page has not
been seen.
Whether she called at the Lassere home
or not Is not known, as the Lassere fam
fly was not at home at the time. There
is no love affair in connection with the
girls disappearance and her family is
troubled at the mystery. Miss Page acted
rather strangely in starting out and
seemed worried about something. After
she left the house she came back and
told her sister she wished there was an
other wheel, so that she could go along.
A few minutes later she returned again
and said she came back to pump up her
wheel. Her sister commented on this as
funny. as the wheel had just been sent
from the shop. but Miss Hertha Page
said the wheel had a slow puncture. She
then rode away in the direction OF
Eleventh and Margaret streets.
All last night friends and relatives Of
the girl conducted a search for Miss Page
and this morning her disappearance was
reported 10 the police and Sheriff. No

A4 speculation as to the results is
almost nugatory, and the Gov
ernment press organs this morning offer
the most conflicting accounts of what
took place at the meeting.
The Daily Telegraph, which probably is
the best informed. asserts that the Cabi-
net crisis was postponed until this even
ing, and that the discussion of the fiscal
question will be continued at the resumed
meeting to-day. but that. whatever may
be the upshot, Premier Balfour will
neither resign, dissolve Parliament nor
summon an autumn session.
The Standard, on the other hand, as
serts with equal positiveness that the fis-
cal inquiry was finished and that the ad-
journed meeting will deal with the for
eign policy. 1t understands that the
question of imposing preferential tariffs
or any other innovation in Great Britain's
fiscal policy has been shelved until an
appeal can be made to the country, and
that during the existence of the present
Parliament the action of the Ministers
will be confined to discussion and in
quiry.
Amid these conflicting reports an
agreement IS rouno IN the most autnor1-
tative quarters on one point-namely, that
Premier Balfour has succeeded in induc-
ing his colleagues to agree to some sort of
compromise which will keep the present
Ministry in office, though it probably will
be slightly reorganized, and that this
compromise is most likely a continuance
of the policy of inquiry" Any action
on the fiscal question will thus be
shelved, and for the details of the com
promise it probably will be necessary to
wait for Balfour's promised speech on
October l.
The slight reorganization" may in
clude new Chancellor of the Exchequer
to succeed Ritchie, who seems determined
to resign. and minor changes in other di-
rections.
