We are hearing great deal about non-elastic cur
currency. On that head said before the Ohio Bank
ers' convention in 1905:
attention has been called to the non-elastic char
acter Of our currency many times and by mans people
but there will be further currency legislation until
we shall have experienced panic occasioned BY this
want Of elasticity The country does not appreciate the
danger, and until the danger ii fully understood, no
remedy will be applied. We came nearer such panic

Sophia, Oct. 23.-The government
has ordered NJ Dimitroff, special en-
voy to Constantinople. to return home
for instructions. This has given rise
TO the fear in Turko- Bulgaria that the
negotiations looking to IA settlement
OF the trouble that has arisen from
Bulgaria's declaration of Independence
have proven futile. but the govern
ment insists that the negotiations have
not been broken off but that they
have only been interrupted to allow
the envoy to make a report in per-

neither state has transmitted any
message in cipher and Dimitroff has
sent only fraSmentary open dispatch
es. Despite the governments reassur-
ance that negotiations have not been
broken off, the feeling prevails that
war is near and the populace is be-
coming excited.
