TURKEY CLAIMS BULGARIA
IS PREPARING FOR WAR

Washington. Feb. Is.-In connection
with the threatened uprising in the
Balkans. diplomats here have received
the full text OF note recently sent by
Turkey to the powers signatory to the
treaty Of Berlin. The note charges
Bulgaria with fomenting all the trouble
In Macedonia, saying:
"The principality OF Bulgaria does
not change its attitude OF active.
though concealed, hostility, in spite Of
the efforts Of the porte, in carrying
through the stipulated reforms. Trust
worthy investigations reveal the fol-
lowing facts:
u. In order to be able to arm all the
villagers. guns as well as ammunition
are constantly transported to eight
Bulgarian frontier places.
q. The depots Of three frontier d.
visions are provlsioned and armed as
for an imminent war.
"S. The powder factories and artil-
lery workshops in Sofia work double
time, and with double forces.
"A. All the military, roads leading
into Turkey along the entire Bulgarian
frontier are improved and widened and
passable, especially for artillery. The
frontier telegraph system is being es-
tablished. especially along the princi-
pal roads.
IS. In all the districts preparations
on a large scale are made for amassing
supplies. a vast commissariat and the
furnishing OF thousands Of wagons by
the population at the first appeal.

Iished In all the garrisons. and the ar
tillery provisioned and manned az on

IS. Special regulations for requisi-
tions for the sustenance OF the army
have been issued.
20. An extraordinary credit was ap-
Iropriated for the eventuality OF the
war.
40. All the mills and bakeries were
investigated In order to ascertain their
highest capacity, and their proprietors
were Instructed to be ready for great
army orders; besides. military bakery
was established.
II. Numerous Notifications were
erected at ALL strategic points and along
the military roads.
"12. All the bridges, especially on the
Martha river, were rebuilt, repaired
and armed. u
"1S. The arms Of artillery and cay-
airy and the bayonets Of the infantry
were sharpened as for immediate ac-
tion."
Bulgaria is charged with counter
ancing public sale Of dynamite to
Macedonians, and the reform scheme OF
the powers in Macedonia is declared to
be absolutely worthless, and Turkey is
said to be convinced that peace and
order can not be restored by paper re-
form conducted by persons ignorant of
the complicated racial conditions Of
those regions.

that the Western Maryland, the road
over which the Wabash was to get into
Baltimore, could be placed under the
control of some other road in which
both the Pennsylvania and the Wabash
could have an equal interest. For this
purpose the Norfolk & Western has
been selected as the most likely. From
the very beginning of the negotiations
the Gould interests baked at this prop
esltion, but 1t was believed that their
objections could be overcome. Failure
to do so is now admitted by persons
directly interested and work on the
Gould extension is progressing rapidly.

New York, Feb, 1S,-All negotiations
for a settlement of the differences be-
tween the Pennsylvania railroad and
Gould interests have been broken Oft
says the Times. Friends of President
Cassatt, of the first named road, and of
George ]. Gould have, the paper con-
tinues, abandoned definitely all at,
temps to obtain rapproachement.
The immediate cause is understood
to have been the absolute refusal Of
the Gould interests to abandon their
project of reaching the Atlantic by an
outlet of their own, The proposition
of a settlement was based on the idea
