and Begins to Be Serious Men,
ace to the Peace Of the Prnci-
paIty.
Sofia, Aug. 16-The anti-Greek
movement in Roumania, and especially
in Bulgaria, is daily assuming greater
proportions and threatens to become
serious danger to peace. The Bulgar-
ian government, 1t appears, will be
forced to take exceptional measures to
terminate the disturbances which are
due to anti Greek feeling with which
the entire population of the principal
ing is historical competition between
Greece and Bulgaria for domination In
the Balkans, which was recently re-
awakened and stimulated by their riy-
airy in Macedonia, rivalry which it
is alleged has been artificially encour-
aged by the Turkish authorities, and
particularly by atrocities Of Greek
bands. 1t is asserted the patriarchial
church at Constantinople has Ncted as
an accomplice OF these bands, with the
object OF forcing the peaceful popula-
ton Of Bulgaria to Join the patriarch
ial church and that propaganda has
been carried out in Bulgaria by organs
of the patriarchial church, which OPEN
ly raised subscriptions for the benefit
Of Greek patriotic societies and also
sought to inflame the Bulgarian ma
tional spirit. The patriarchial church
ant Constantinople nominated a Greek
bishop at Varna in manner which
was regarded by Bulgarians as insult
ing and humiliating and the Bulgari-
an authorities refused to permit the
bishop to occupy the see without ap-
proval Of the Bulgarian government.
The incident aroused intense public
feeling, and resulted in attacks on the
Greek church. school and monastery.
which were followed by scenes Of dis
order in every district possessing patri-
archial religious establishments.
