Cabinet Has Resolved to Send
Warshps to Salonica-The
Situation Is Worse.

London, September 15.-The important
note sent by Bulgaria to the powers de-
claring that unless the latter interviewed
in Macedonia, Bulgaria will be forced to
take such measures as she may deem
necessary, is held to be a prelude to the
mobilization of the Bulgarian army un-
less Europe exerts herself in some way
to prevent a conflict.
1t is announced in Sofia that Prince
Ferdinand will return to the Bulgarian
capital from Euxenograd in a few days.
when the government will take some de-
csive step
The Daily Mail understands that the
British cabinet yesterday resolved on
naval cooperation with the powers in
near waters, and the British warships
will shortly appear at Salonica.
Long Statement Issued.
The Turkish embassy in London has
again issued a long statement warning
the public against the "unfounded reports
and ISLANDERS of Bulgarian sources daily
appearing in the London papers," and de-
nying verbatim the reports of Turkish
atrocities and that Turkish troops have
been ordered to cross into eastern Rou-
mania in order to cut off the insurgent
bands.
The statement further gives account of
T'trkish Successes aga4nst the Bulgaria n
Hle nr-ss'' and represents the bands as
deinOralized, hiding and surrendering.
Az Athens despatch announces that
Premier Ralli has formulated a demand
for the punishment of the Turkish lead
ers responsible for the pillage of the Greek
villages in Macedonia and the murder of
their inhabitants. The cofia correspond
ent of the Times telegraphs that the sit
uation has changed distinctly for the
worse.
Pursue Same Tactics.
He says: THE powers appear to be
pursuing the same tactics which preced-
ed the GreekTurkish war and the result
will probably be similar. Instead of taxi
ing steps to check the barbaraties COM
mitted in Macedonia, they have allowed
matters to drift and are now trying to
find a remedy in useless and irritating
admonitions to the Bulgarian govern
ment.
Count Lambsdorff Russian foreign
minister and Count Goluchowsld, Austro.
Hungarian foreign minister, have ex-
pressed the opinion to the other powers
that an identical note should be sent to
Turkey and Bulgaria, warning them that
in the event of war neither combatant
could expect aid from the great powers
and that the Austro- Russian reform
scheme should be maintained and the

NOTED CHARACTER DEAD.
Charles Pfister Was Prominent AboIl-
ZIONIST in Ante-BelIum Days.

Chicago, September 14.-Charles Pfister
of Maysville. KY. friend of Cassius NJ.
Clay and John c.. Fremont, and an
abolitionist of note in Kentucky in ante
bellum and war days, is dead here at the
home of his son, Walter B. Pfister. He
was "a years old.
The deceased, who was lumber mer-
chant for thirty years, was the only man
in Maysville to vote for Fremont for
President In 1856, and was one of the only
six men to vote for Lincoln in 1860. The
other five were burned in effigy, but Mr..
Pfister was spared that indignity because
1t was generally realized that he voted
from principle. He built Fort Hill, com
manding the Ohio river for five miles. and
turned it over to the Union army and
sought no pay for 1t. but congress remun-
Grated him in after years. He once ar
ranged a meeting at which Gen. C. M.
Clay spoke, the general holding revol-
yer in each hand while he delivered his
discourse.

This evening, Mr. Hoyt prepared and is
sued the following: There has been SO
much misunderstanding over the proposed
annual dinner of the Seawanhanka Cofin-
THAN yacht club that L feel it my duty
as chairman of the board of trustees to
state the facts; namely, that the Presi-
dent was invited by me to be the guest of
the club at It's annual banquet and he
accepted with the distinct understanding
that it was not to be a large formal
function, but simply the annual banquet
of the club for its members and guests.
Sir Thomas Liptons name was not men,
toned. or that of any other gentleman,
in my interview, and to assure the public
that nothing was further from the Presi-
dents thoughts than to bar Sir Thomas or
anyone else from the dinner. take pleas
ure In giving to the press the following
letter, which I have just received from
Secretary Loeb:
Letter From the Secretary.
My Deaf MIR. IIoyt; Ths resident d.
rects me to say that it will be partic-
ular pleasure to him If Sir Thomas Upton
can come to the Seawankanka dinner. As
you will recall, all that the President
said when the invitation was extended to
him was that he did not feel like ae-
ceptng any more invitations to formal
functions; that if it was simply to be
neighborhood dinner among his own
friends in the Seawanhanka club he would
gladly come The President has a partic-
uarly high regard for Sir Thomas Lip
ton and a high appreciation of the manly
and sportsmanlike spirit he has shown
throughout the yacht contests. The Presf-
dent earnestly desires that Sir Thomas
be present at the dinner. Very truly yours,

Secretary to the President"
