WAR PREDICTED
Between Turkey and BuIearia-Bu
garans Angry.

Vienna, Jan. 24.-War between Tur-
and Bulgaria is considered almost a
certainty in diplomatic circles here
and few think the opening of hos
tilities will be delayed longer than
next spring. Turkish aggressions have
aroused Bulgaria to degree of anger
where it is considered unlikely that
the principality's government can
retain control unless it yields to the
peoples demands for a declaration
against the Sultan. The powers fail
ure to inaugurate the long promised
Balkan reforms has made matters
worse. Should ABDUL Hamid die, as
now seems likely, officialdom thinks
Bulgaria will take advantage of the
short period of confusion to strike at
once. Bulgaria is maintaining an
army Of 100000 men in the pink of
condition, and the burden is so heavy
that it is expected the government
may decide at almost any time to
force the issue.
