FRANCE, RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA

LATTER IS UPHELD

PARIS. May II. - There was simul-
taneous publication this morning in Paris,
Vienna and st. Petersburg of the official
view of the Bulgarian situation. 1t ap-
peared In the Figaro here, the Neue Freie
Presse of Vienna and in the official organ
at st. Petersburg and carries out the idea,
previously cabled to the Associated Press,
that the powers are satisfied with the cor
rectness of Bulgaria's course and will not
tolerate the adoption by the Sultan of Tur-
key of stern measures against Bulgaria on
account of the Salonica outrages. 1t is
pointed out that the question is not merely
one between a suZerain and a vassal, but
Is one between Turkey and the powers sig
natory of the Berlin convention, mainly
France, Austria and Russia owing to their
geographical position. The official COM
munication sums up as follows:
Two important points mark the present
status of the imbroglio. First the Bulga-
rian government is not responsible for the
Macedonian violence; second neither St.
Petersburg, Vienna nor Paris has the in
tention to permit Bulgaria to be held re-
sponsible.
The communication closes. with the state
ment that the portes first duty is to carry
out the general plan for the Balkan re-
forms, repress the Albanian agitators and
punish the murderer of the Russian consul.
adding: If Turkey persists in diverting
attention by menacing Bulgaria the am
bassadors of the powers. may shortly re-
mind the porte of what the powers expect"

BOSTON, Mass, May 1.-THE Union
Boat Club of this city Is planning to send
fast eight-oared crew to England next
season to compete for the Henley grand
challenge cup. 1t is purposed to get to-
gether a seasoned crew of college men
whose standing is above reproach and who
will at the same time be on parity with
the veteran Leander crews in point of ex-
perience and all that goes to make up such
an eight.
Nothing official regarding the proposed

BIG FIRE AT OTTAWA.
Loss Estimated at 100000 in the
Lumber District.


OTTAWA, Ont, May 11.-About two hun
dred and fifty houses destroyed, probably
two thousand people homeless and a finan-
cial loss of fully 100000 is the result of
the confiagration which yesterday devastat-
ed the area between the Ottawa and Parry
Sound railway tracks, on the east, Albert
on the north and the 4tracks of the Cana
dian Pacific Prescott line and Sd avenue on
the west The money loss is about one
half covered by insurance. While it was
generally believed last night that an In
cendiary had started the fire doubts were
thrown upon this theory today
1t was said today that the blaze was seen
in the grass before it seized the lumber.
There were from ten million to fifteen mil
lion feet of lumber burned. The buildings
destroyed were dwelling houses and stores.
No lives are known TO have been lost
While the buildings were all pretty well
insured, some of the tenants had nothing on
their furniture. A good many of these
however, succeeded in saving their effects.
Through an accident to the water pipes it
was nearly an hour after the fire was dis
covered before water was thrown upon the
flames. and in that time they made great
headway. Assistance arrived from Mon
treal but it was not required. The military
was called out to aid the civil power III
combating the fire.

CHINA Is NOT WORRIED.
Reassured by the Powers Regarding
the Manchufia Matter.

PARIS, May 1.-THE French minister at
Peking reports that Minister Conger. fol-
lowing instructions, has notified the Chinese
government Of the assurances regarding
Manchurfa which Russia has given the
United States. directly through American
Ambassador Mccormick. and also through
Ambassador Cassini. and says the Russian
charge d'affaires at Peking has given the
Chinese officials similar assurances. The
French minister adds that the Chinese of
dci2Is are not gravely concerned by Rus
sia's alleged designs on Manchuria being
fully satisfied with the foregoing assur-
ances.
The feeling here, which is strongly SYM
pathetic with Russia. has been greatly re-
lieved by the official advices from Wash
ington summing up the results of the con-
ference between Secretary Hay, Ambassa-
dor Cassini and the Japanese minister, par
ticularly the contradiction of the report
that Mr.. Hay had telegraphed to President
Roosevelt relative to the question of joint
action on the part of Great Britain, Japan
and the, United States, which report
aroused serious apprehension here of possi-
bic international entanglements.
