Bulgaria's last note and the fact
that none Of the other great powers
has yet replied. coupled with the al
legations that one of the powers is en-
courag ing the military party at the vi

feeling here. There is. however, no
percepubie change in the situation. Va
rious reports are in circulation regard
ing negotiations between Turkey and
Bulgaria looking to a solution of the
Macedonian difficulty.

sented a note to Bulgaria asking for

The Bulgarian reply concluded
IF the present situation continues
the Bulgarian government will be COM
PEELED to yield to public opinion and

II appears doubtful that the govern
ment has sent such an answer, but the
statement published represents in some
degree the government attitude.
