 London, Oct. 5--In the ancient c3pfs tai of Tirnovo. the independence of the Czar of the Bulgarians as ruler.
 Czar of the Rulgarians is recognized to mean more than Czar of Bulgaria. because 1t is distinct intimation that he regards his country as having SOW ereignty over all the people of that blood in t.-e near East.
 Within a day or two, Austria -llun- gary. which has been working with Prince Fer .inand in this preconcerted plan. wiIl proclaim the new status of Bosnia and Herzegovina
 The question which has been stir ring the whole of Europe more deeply than any similar question within the memory of the present generation is. does 1t mean war; From all the cap- itals tonight come reports. indicating that it means, first of all, another Eus ropean congress of the signers of the treaty of Berlin to consider the situa. ton and probably to revise the treaty. Turkey caught in moment of weak ness. Is the victim of this situation. while some international animosities have been stirred up, probably no power is willing to make war.
 Reports from the emancipated Turk ish press to London indicate that the ssYoung Turks" will swallow this bit- ter pill as best they can. and, if they do. naturally the Bulgartans, while willing and ca ger for war, will have no cause on which to base the beginning of hostilities,
 From the. British standpoint the whole affair has been Q surprise he- cause for the first time in years the government felt itself with apparently sla and complste friendship with Italy, to be Tn a position where 1t dom- mated European politics, reserving out of this consideration the almost open enmity between itself and Germany.
 Probably never in the history of Eu- rope have politics taken such arnaz- ingly kaleidescopic revolutions as sdn- ring the past week. An entarglinG situation will come when the signator- ies of the Berlin treaty meet to cons sider what action shall be taken re garding the violations of the treaty.
 Great Britain tonight served notice that it. does not recognize the right Of any of the parties to this treaty to vio- late it's provisions without consult ing the others, but English diplpmats Know that the conference will resolve itself into a scramble among the powers to get what is termed in Euro pean politics.

 A British Statement.
 The official statement issued by the British foreign office this evening says
 His majesty's government cannot admit the' right of any power to alter an international. treaty without the consent of the other parties to 1t. and it therefore refuses to sanction any in- fraction on the Berlin treaty and de- clines to recognize what has been done until the views of the other powers are known, especially those of Fur. key, which is more directly concerned than any one else.'
 The chances of war between Bull garia and Turkey are being minimized by Great Britain and France, who are working together and who have advis- ed Turkey against it. Turkey. how ever is apparently disposed to fol- low this advice, and it is believed that if nasty action on the part of Turkey can be prevented, Bulgaria will have difnculty in finding an excuse to be- gin war.
 The action of Prince Ferdinand in proclaiming the independence of Bull garia is condemned alike by the gov ernments and press of Europe but in some quarters this IS considered a mat ter of minor importance, so long as 1t does not eventuate in war, as compared with the threatened annexation of the Provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Austria Hungary.
 Reports from Belgrade indicate that Servia has been aroused to the danger point. bands of Servians marching the streets of Belgrade and shouting for war with Austria rather than annex alton
