KING EDWARD AT VIENNA
WELCOMED BY EMPEROR FRANCIS
JOSEPH AND HIS COURT.
City deliberately Decorated i'm Honor
of the British Sovereign-Flags of
Two Nations Entwfned.

VIENNA, Aug. 31.-King Edward arrived
here to-day from Marienbad and he was
accorded an enthusiastic reception. The
city was deliberately decorated and along
the route from the railroad station to the
Hofburg triumphal arches displaying the
Austrian and British flags entwined were
erected.
Emperor Francis Joseph, wearing the uni
form of the British dragoon guards and
accompanied by several archdukes and
other notables, received King Edward at
the station. The King the uniform
of a colonel of Austrian Hussars. After the
presentation of the archdukes and others
the sovereigns drove to the Hofburg in the
landau drawn by six horses, immense
crowds lining the streets.
AT the Hofburg the King was received by
the archduchess, Foreign Minister Goluch-
owski, the Austrian and the Hungarian
premiers and the court and state dignitar-
les. Thereafter the King retired to his
apartments, where he was officially visited
by the Emperor.
state dinner in honor of King Edward
was given at the Hofburg tonight. The
company present included the Emepror, all
the archdukes and archduchesses, the min
listers, diplomats and the general staff OF
King Edward in a speech, in the course of
which he hailed the latter's visit as fresh
pledge for the maintenance of the close
confidential relations which have long ex-
listed between the two families and coun-
| tries, and which were all the frmer be-
cause there was no political interest or
| point of antagonism likely to cast the
| shadow of cloud between them.
The King, in response, expressed his
| thanks for the friendly sentiments ex-
pressed toward him and the cordial re-
ception he had met with, which he said had
deeply touched him. He assured the En-
peror of the continuance of the feeling of
| friendship which he had inherited from
Queen Victoria, and concluded by appoint
| ing Emperor Francis Joseph field marshal
| in the British army. This announcement
| created deep impression and the Emperor
| rose, bowed and pressed King Edward
hand. During the course of the dinner the
| monarchs conversed with each other and
| the guests in an animated manner.
Enormous crowds assembled outside the
palace, as they had done during the day at
| every opportunity of seeing the King.

Thousands Of Prince Ferdinand's SUBJ
5ects Crossing the Frontier and
Assisting Macedonians.
RESURRECTION Is SPREADING
BETWEEN TWELVE AND FIFTEEN
THOUSAND MEN NOW IN ARMS.
Bulgarian villages Burned by Turks
Christians Subjected to Every
Conceivable Outrage.

SOFIA, Aug. 31.-The Macedonian leaders
here claim that 1900 Bulgarians have
crossed the frontier in small parties and
soined the insurgents during the last ten
days. General Zontehon, the president of
the Macedonian committee. and Colonel
Jankoff. one of the revolutionary leaders,
who are now in Macedonia, send word that
the insurgent forces total 1900 to 1900
men They expect that a general insurrec-
tion will be proclaimed this week.
Nine hundred refugees from Malkotirnovo
and surrounding villages have arrived at
Urumku, Bulgaria. The refugees say the
Turkish garrison fired upon the Bulgarian
port Of Malkotirnovo with the object of
creating an impression that revolution
was In progress.
The project Aug. q summoned the Bull
garian notables of Malkotirnovo and en-
deavored to force them to sign a statement
that the insurgents were the aggressors.
The notables refused to do so and the first
man who refused was hanged the following
day.
Both In official and revolutionary circles
fhe opinion is freely held that war between
Bulgaria and Turkey is imminent, and can
Be averted by nothing short of miracle
1t is not expected that either government
will formally declare hostilities, but that
the prevailing conditions will force on a.
war. There is no question that large num-
bers or insurgents have recently crossed the
frontier. An extensive outbreak in north
err Macedonia Is possible any day. The
Autonomie prints a telegram from Constan-
finople declaring that the Sultan, Influenced
by the counsels Of Germany, now favors
a war with Bulgaria. The Turks here
however, take an optimistic view asserting
that there Is no danger OF a war, as
Turkey does not desire one and Prince
Ferdinand and the present Bulgarian gov
eminent are not in position to force hos
tilities.
The Bulgarian agent at Uskub reports
that the detachments Of Turkish troops sent
10 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 popu-
lation 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 the peasants without
the gendarmes interfering on behalf of the
latter. The Bulgarian agent specifies SIM
liar excuses in many other villages, and
the position OF the Bulgarian residents is
reported to be terrible as the cruelties COM
nitted by the Turkish authorities exceeded
all limits.
Up to o'clock this evening Prince Ferdi-
nand had not arrived in Sofia, and the court
officials declare that they are without infor-
nation as to his movements.

ItaIy's King Uses a Motor Car.

ROME, Aug. 31.-Some alarm was caused
here to-day by a rumor of an accident to
the royal motor car at the maneuvers
around Udine. 1t was said the King had
been thrown out 1t turned out that the
report was inaccurate and that it was an
auto occupied by three staff officers which
had run into a milestone. Captain Gaul-
tieris suffered a broken arm.
The King is showing extraordinary energy
at the military maneuvers. He is the first
sovereign to use a motor car in inspecting
and directing the movements of troops. He
is out every morning at 5 o'clock and
travels from point to point, now in the auto,
now in the saddle, with rapidity that has
greatly impressed the troops. The new
communication is used with excellent re-
suits.

THAN bankers Oh the
FREE SILVER country are ar
dently advocating
wha.t they are pleased to call asset
currency" Why the banks should do
this the Graphic is unable to under
stand The bankers were all opposed
to Bryan's free silver scheme, and
the Graphic believed their reasons
fer opposing it were sensible The
Graphic was opposed to it just as
strongly as the bankers. It believed
that free silver meant a deprecated
money, and there would be no help
to th = ratit.n in an increase in the vol
ume CT money if it deprecated in val
ue in the sar ratio of the increase
While the Graphic believes that free
silver would seriously impair the
monetary system of the government
ard bring financial disaster, It has
less confidence in this asset curren-
cy'' that so many of the bankers seem
in favor of than it has in free silver
Many are now living who know to
their sorrow what asset currency"
means. In the good old days when
priv ate banks were permitted to grind
OUT asset currency the dollar Of
today was worthless tomorrow. Ken
lucky asset currency" was at dis
count in Indiana The average per-
son with a few dollars in his pocket
hastily turned it into merchandise,
whether he needed it or not. being
fearful that if he kept it over night
it would be worthless. The chances
We're that it would be.
Who will pass upon the assets that
are to be the base of this asset cur
rency?" Most of us know that assets
shrink amazingly at tight times. A
wooden rag is not circumstance to
1t. 1t is not so many years ago when
it was extremely difficult to obtain
money on assets that were gilt-eIged:
even government bonds We're turned
down. Of course this could not hap
pen II the banker could issue curren-
cy against assets. which would be
simply question of paper. printing
and signing the asset currency" 1t
would circulate beautifully so long as
the people would pass it along and
We're duly inspired with a sufficient
amount Of confidence.
We will suppose for example. that
banker has put out nice line of
asset currency based upon the wa
tered stock of some corporation. of
which We have plentiful supply. Sup
pose the bankers assets dwindle to
next to nothing and the people con-
clude they would like to turn their
"asset currency into gold? Could
the banker make good, or would he
tell the dear people to keep their "as-
set currency" or, still better, keep
it circulating like the wildcat Kan
sas banker who coolly informed the
people that his particular brand of
asset currency" was made to circu-
late and not to be redeemed?"
