RISING IN NORTHERN
MACEDONIA is ON
Last Night Was the Time Fixed
for Its ProcIams-
ton.

LONDON, Sept 1.-The Times
correspondent at Sofia hears
that the rising in Northern Macedonia
was to be proclaimed last night. Prince
Ferdinand, he says, had a long inter
view at Constanza with the Roumanian
premier yesterday before embatking
for Burgas
SOFIA, Bulgaria, Aug. 31.-Both in
official and revolutionary circles the
opinion is freely held that war between
Bulgaria and Turkey is imminent and
can be averted by nothing short of a
miracle. It is not expected that either
government will formally declare hos
tilities, but that the prevailing condi-
tons will force on war.
There is no question that large num-
bers of insurgents have recently cross
ed the frontier. An extensive outbreak
in Northern Macedonia is possible any
day. The Autonomie prints a tele-
gram from Constantinople declaring
that the sultan, Influenced by the coun-
sells of Germany, now favors a war
with Bulgaria. The Turks here, how
ever, take an optimistic view. assert
ing that there is no danger of war,
as Turkey does not desire one and
Prince Ferdinand and the present Bull
garian government are not in a posi-
ton to force hostilitieS.
The Bulgarian agent at Uskub re-
ports that the detachmentS of Turkish
troops sent to garrison the small towns
in that vilayet have spread destruction
along their route; the villagers have
been robbed and beaten, the women
violated and the Christian population
subjected to every conceivable out
rage, while the local authorities appear
to be helpless to stop the atrocities. At
the village of Drachevo, six miles from
Uskub, the soldiers attacked all the
peasants without the gendarmes in
terfering on behalf of the latter. The
Bulgarian agents charge similar eX-
cesses in many other villages and the
position of Bulgarian residents is re-
ported to be terrible, as the cruelties
committed by the Turkish troops eX-
coed all limits.
SALONICA, Aug. 31.-The Turks
have occupied Klissura, Albania, with
out resistance. A number of Bull
garian villages in it's vicinity were
burned Inspector General Milma Pa
Sha recently sent a commission, COM
posed of five Christians and five Turks
to offer amnesty to the insurgents on
condition that they lay down their
ans before the great feast tomorrow in
honor of the sultan's coronation.
The revolt has become general at
GAIA and Yenidje, twenty-five miles
from Salonica. and is spreading to
Gherghli and Tikhves1, sixty-five miles
from Salonica. Sarafoff, the revolu-
tionary leader, has arrived in the
neighborhood of Salonica for the pur-
pose of directing the movements in this
district. Some Turkish officers Aug.
20 sold fifteen cases of Martini rifles
and a quantity of ammunition to Bull
garians.
BRUSSELS, Aug. Sit is said that
Belgium, under pressure from Austria
and Russia. has consented to appoint
four officers for the Macedonian gend-
armerie.

1T COSTS ABDUL HAMID
5000 PER TO SLEEP
Big Price for sIumber Paid by Tur-
keys Sultan.

Special Foreign Service.
CONSTANTINOPLE Aug 81
Sleep that costs 5000 a night seems
pretty expensive, but that is what the
sultan of Turkey is now paying for the
privilege of more or less tranquil re-
pose. The money is received by the
members of the special military staff
which guards Abdul Hamid's bed
room, and which consists of two gen
erals, a colonel, a major, captain and
several soldiers. For their nights work
each of the two generals gets so Turk
ish pounds-or about $235-the colonel
40, the major 35, the captain 80, and
each soldier 1, the entire amount ag
gregating slightly over $500 in Ameri
can money. The officers and men get
their fee every morning Immediately
they have been relieved, and don't
have to wait for it like some pretty big
nations to whom Abdul Hamid owes
money.
This expensive night guard of the
sultan's has been maintained by him
only. since the recent assassination of
the royal couple of Servia. OF course,
the timorous ruler of Turkey always
has been particularly well guarded at
night, but the murders att Belgrade
scared Abdul Hamid almost out of his
wits and he Immediately determined
that he would surround his bed cham
Der with the most vigilant men who
could be secured and make it to their
interest to protect him. The command
of the special night guard is intrusted
to eight of the sultan's most trusted
other precautions that the ruler has
adopted recently, it is estimated that
the weekly expense of running YildeZ
Kiosk is over $4,000.

ApEMoNsTRATEp NEED.

If. Mr.. Lowry desires further infor-
nation as to the need of a cross town
street car line in st. Paul, he is invited
to take a glance at the conditions of
the traffic of his system in this city
during the state fair, and to read the
published opinions of all those who do
not fear his displeasure We publish
on this page this morning an article on
the subject from the Pioneer Press of
Sunday last, setting forth clearly and
convincingly what st. Paul wants most
at this time and why 1t will be echoed
by every citizen
The other source of information to
which he have referred is striking.
We are unable to understand how any
good business man, operating the
street railway system in this civ.
should fail to make the construction of
ross-town line one of his first pur-
poses, solely with view to his own
interest. Without considering at all
what the people wish or what thew
ought to have, it would seem that the
enormous economy involved would be
a sufficient attraction.
I The visitor to the state fair is i'm
pressed by the magnitude of the trans
portation facilities provided. The
great cars of the street railway company
run frequently. They are comfortable,
when not overcrowded. The manapa-
ment of the company shows commend
able enterprise and it is reaping
great harvest. But at what cost!
The patrons of the fair from a consid-
cradle portion of the whole city are
carried five to ten miles for a single

COMMENTED UNDER DENMARK.
But All Is Not as Well With the West
India Islands as MIGHT Be.

BERLIN, Aug. 31.-The National
Aeltung says the Danish West Indian
commission is said to have reported as
follows to Finance Minister Hage:
The population OF the islands is sat
lstled to remain under Danish rule.
fhe whites hope for the newly awak-
ened interest in Denmark in the islands
an improvement of economic condi-
tons and the fostering of civilizjng in
huences. The negroes, for the greater
part, are Indifferent and know but lit
tie about Denmark The administration
or the islands was found to be unprac-
tlcal and expensive and the hygienic
conditions entirely unsatisfactory.
1t is believed that the commission
VIII report in favor of reducing the
military establishment on the islands
ana recognizing the gendarmerie on
modern lines. The report will also
suggest that more attention be paid to
PUBIC instruction. the improvement of
the hospitals, the tobacco growing in
dustry and the raising of corn. The
commission places great weight on
the necessity for communication be-
tween the islands themselves and with
denmark. The belief is expressed that
the exports of the islands can be de-
Veloped and In this connection hopes
are based on the newly organized West
indian Steamship and Land company,

one of them in legislature the dis
trict that sent him there must shoulder
all the blame. He could never get
within sight of the state capitol unless
it's voters were either criminally care
less or else occupied his own low
moral plane.
1t is heavy Indictment against our
practical politics that the people
should be afraid of the very men who
are their own political equivalents. 1t
does not argue against. the democratic
system. 1t does not prove the i'm
morality of the American people, who
at heart are true and puress But it
does convict them of idleness, .indiffer-
ence, stupidity almost incredible. They.
are willing to commit and they do COM
NIT year after year their highest IN
terests to the control of men whom
they do not trust, and whom they have
to bind by constitutional limitations to
do their duty or not to commit public
crimes. What we need is that awak-
ening of public conscience in the duty
of electing public officials, from high
est to lowest, without which repre-
sentative government can never be
more than at best partial and I'M
happy failure.

THE ARMY OF THE PHILIPPINES.

That was a remarkable gathering
which assembled in this city yester-
day and proceeded to deliberate on af-
fairs of interest to the member of the
Society of the Army of the Philip
pines. 1t was remarkable for many
things and most conspicuously SO by
reason of the fact that it was COM
posed of men still young in years,
strong in brains and Drawn and pos
sessed of experience that must go far
in helping them to live as American
gentlemen and patriots.
Not since the close of the Civil war
has opportunity presented itself for
the assembling of beardless majors and
colonies who had won their titles in
actual warfare. The Philippine war,
whatever else 1t failed in, most as
suredly brought out some of the best
traits in our young men. 1t gave a
flip to our Americanism and helped
bring out the qualities of citizenship
that were being suppressed by the af-
fected cynicism of a life that was
wholly selfish. The Philippine war,
so far as the volunteer armies of the
United States were concerned, was a
good thing for the survivors
1t was rather an inspiring sight to
watch the crowd of young and Yigor-
GUS men in that convention. Every
man of the lot veteran and entitled
to the handle he had to his name, the
convention was striking Illustration
of the fact that we develop young.
The members of the Army Of the Phil
ippines have their lives all before them
yet many of them have already &C
complished the work of a lifetime.
Their organization is a good thing.
1t will serve to keep alive memories
that should not be allowed to die.
There is nothing of bitterness in
those memories and whatever there
may be of regret in them it can only
be because some there are who rest
under the palms of the Pacific isles,
the remembrance of them hallowed by
the knowledge that they died in order
that their fellows might live and the
republic remain victorious.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-09-01

fare, are transferred from one line to
another, are hauled far out of their
way, and must be provided for in the
same cars that carry the crowd from
the union depot, the hotels and the
business section generally, when all
all this superf1uous and expensive
work avoided. This is surely as short
sighted policy as ever a business enter
prise adhered to, without any reason
that can be stated.
If there were a cross-town line in eX-
istence this week, it would, with very
few cars, carry tens of thousands of
visitors to and from the fair. These
people would be vastly accommodated
in comfort and in time. They could
spend half an hour more each morning.
and afternoon at home or at the fair
grounds as they might choose. All this
traffic would be taken from the one
line which. now scarcely suffices for
the business. A correspondingly small
er number of cars would have to make
the long haul. Everybody's comfort
would be consulted, and the saving
would be immense.
The conditions existing this week
are merely an exaggeration of those
to be seen every day. The difference
is solely in the number of people to be
T0,1t do &c nlo ~
of travel to fill the cars of a cross
town line with as many people as they
can carry suitably. The street railway
company is hauling them miles out Of
its way and theirs, at a cost not in
considerable, simply because, for rea-
sons that it has not revealed, 1t does
not build and shows no disposition to
build the one line which our people
want more than all others.
The necessity needs no demonstra-
ton, but one has been furnished that
server. The street railway company
is asked to do something that will i'm
prove our facilities and our business,
but not at it's own cost. It's advan-
tage is so clearly on the same side
that one would suppose it might in
sist upon constructing cross-town car
line in it's own behalf, even if the pub
lie were as bitterly opposed as they
were to the occupation of some of the
streets where it is now lord of all.
What possible motive can there be for
passing by an addition to its system
which should be and is demanded as
earnestly by a sensible and economical
method of operation as it is by the
united public opinion of this city?
