It was here that the most fatalities occurred. Half a battalion of Cossacks were sum- moned from Odessa.

 Commander.

l Sofia, August 7.-The fresh insurrec- tionary outbreaks in Macedonia, which were believed to be impossible. have pro- duced a sensation everywhere It is be- lieyed that the latest provocation by the Turkish troops drove the insurrectonists to despair. The Bulgarian government is resolved to maintain friendly relations with the porte and to prevent bands from crossing the frontier, but popular move ment is feared in the event of massacres of peaceful Macedonians by the Turkish soldiers.
 Meetings of prominent Maeedonians were held yesterday and today, and measures for succoring the sufferers from the insurrectionists were discussed but no decision was reached
 According to dispatch from Vienna commission had fixed August 31 as the date for the general rising and had ap- pointed Boris sarssofoff commander of the revolutionary forces.
 Boris sarssofoff has been described as the most romantic figure In the Balkans. He was popu1arly believed and stated to be the real instigator of the abduction of Miss Ellen M. Stone. the American mis- sionary, in 190i in order to procure through her ransom funds to enable the Macedonian revolutionary committee to organize the insurrection in Macedonia
 His hatred of the Turks was imbued at an early age through seeing his father and grand father tortured. dragged off in n a nXilpQ fifteen years.
 At the age of IA he attacked, single handed the prison In which his father and grandfather were confined, but was 1ogged for his pains The boy swore to revenge himself on the Turks and studied to this end. becoming an officer in the Bulgarian army. In 1895 Sarssofoff formed band of desperadoes to raid Turkish territory. Since then he has headed 3S4 daring raids into Turkey. Once he cap- tured the town of Melnik with forty men.
 His whole aim Is the organization of a vast rebellion with the object of seizing Constantinople and overthrowing the dy- nasty
 Bulgarian Instruction Spreading.
 London, August S.-The Times this morning prints a despatch from Sofia which says that the ipsurrection Is spreading. The Bulgarian exarch being invited by the Grand Visier of Turkey to paeify his Macedonian flock, declined to aecede, on the ground that his admoni- tions were certain to be dlsregarded. The Bulgarian government asked the powers to induce the porte not to en- ploy Bashi Bazouks in the suppression of the rebellion.
 Situation Is Alarming.
 Vienna, August 7.--An Odessa dispatch describes the situation as alarming. It says the striking lockers were attacking ships and throwing their contents into the sea. The rioters put the chief of po- lice to flight, made anti-strike proclama- tions and threatened to set the city on fire At the first shot at the troops the Jewish population became panic stricken and many fled
