Sofia, Sept. 22.--The unfavorable re
plies of Austria and Russia to Bull
garia's last note and the fact that none

ports are in circulation regarding the

garia looking to the solution of the
Macedonian difficulty.

scented a note to Bulgaria asking Tor
the latter's assistance in reaching a
peaceable solution. Bulgaria replied
that Turkey must end the maSsacres,
withdraw her frontier forces, guaran
tee peace and protection to the VII

homes. amensity to political offenders
and introduce such governmental re-
forms as will pacify Macedonia and
