THE NEAR EASTERN TROUBLE
Bulgaria Trying to Keep Out OF n Fight,
According to Their Agent
In Paris.

Paris, Feb. 21.-M. Zolollovitz. the
Bulgarian agent in Paris. mace the
following statement TO-DAY:
II can give the formal assurance
that Bulgaria has more than ever re-
solved to do nothing 10 compromise
the peace. It is with great Satsfac-
ton that We have seen the powers elab-
crate a plan for reforms in Macedonia
and we wish, without reservation, the
reforms realized. Above all, with this
moment when the powers are follow
ing with anxiety the events in the TAR
east, Bulgaria will avoid doing any
thing that would cause the belief that
she proposes to profit by the crisis. The
Bulgarian people have unanimously
expressed warm sympathy with Rus
Sia.
1T is unfortunate that Turkey per-
sists in her regrettable hostility. Be-
sides the annoying police measures she
has taken against our people our COM
merce suffers serious obstacles; and
finally, the continued concentration OF
Turkish troops along our frontier and
the mobilization Of troops at strategic
points is menacing u.s."
NJ. Zolollovitz said there IS a war
party in Constantinople which has a
preponderating influence and quoted
from consular reports to the effect that
the Turks fear military uprising II
war WITH Bulgaria is not'declared.
In the light of these facts NJ.
Zolollovitch concluded. lit is natural
that Bulgaria, too, should be prepar-
ing
