Germany Approves Annexation.

Vienna. Oct. 1S.-The Emperor Will
liam is the first sovereign to reply to
the Emperor Francis Joseph's letter
announcing the annexation of Bosnia
and Herzegovina by Austria. Herr
Won Tschirschky. the German Ambas-
sador, had a special audience with the
Austrian Emperor at Budapest today
and presented the Kaiser's letter to
Francis Joseph. 1t is reported that
promises to support it by Germany's
diplomacy and, if necessary, with all
her military assistance.
Although no authorized official state
ment can be obtained regarding the
British. Russian and French agree
ment, it is known that Austria has not
receded from her first position, which
was that she would have nothing to
do with any conference if it was pro-
posed to review her annexation of Bos-
mia and Herzegovina. Moreover, she
has not the slightest intention of COM
pensating Servia.
These views are supported by the
newspapers. The Allgemaine Zeitung
naively asks where the compensations
to Servia and Montenegro are to come
from if they are not to be at Turkeys S
cost. The Fremdenblatt, the mouth
piece of the Ministry of Foreign At
fairs, severely condemns the British
press for sowing distrust of Austria
and for representing the annexation
of Bosnia ad Herzegovina as a SER
ious injury to Turkey. 1t says ii is
Not to be expected that Austria will
subordinate the permanent objects of
her Eastern policy to Great Britain s
momentary desires.

TOWN THREATENED,
Forest Fires Raging in Marion County
Ohio.

Marion, O., Oct. 17.-Thousands of
acres of pasture and timber land are
ablaze in Marion county and the
flames threaten to destroy the town Of
Larue, fifteen miles from here Sew
eral hundred men are working hard to
prevent the flames from reaching the
town but unless the direction of the
wind changes, it is feared their efforts
will be in vain. Many head of cattle
have been burned to death in the
flames. People living in villages near
the big fire have fled from their
homes. Rain has fallen in the county
only once since July and the district
is dry and parched.
1t is estimated that three hundred
men, scores of them with blistered
hands and faces are fighting the
flames. The fire started on the farm
OF James CUTLERY, near Larue. A
brisk west wind was blowing and car
ried the flames from field to field
Farmers for miles around gathered to
hight the flames, but could make little
headway. This afternoon the direction
or the wind changed and the flames
crept near Larue. BY telegraph word
was sent to all the towns and villages
surrounding the blazing sections. and
more men Joined the fire fighters.
Wide burrows have been plowed
around Larue and it is hoped that the
flames will not be able to cross this.

Official Advices of the Mo-
biIization of Turkish Troops
Have Been Received in
Paris.
BULGARIA EXPECTED
TO RUSH HER TROOPS.
France Takes Steps to Pre-
vent Threatened Outbreak
Russian Minister Visits in
France.

London, Oct. 17.-War clouds are
once more gathering over the Balkans.
Today's dispatches from Paris declare
that the French government has re-
ceived official advices of the mobiliza-
ton of Turkeys army corps, a move
which would render war practically in
evitable, and Burgaria might be ma
turally expected to rush troops across
the Northern Turkish frontier in order
to forestall a general mobilization by
Turkey. Direct reports from Constan-
tinople received up to this hour fail
to confirm the Paris report. however
but it is known that Turkey has warn
ed Bulgaria that she must abandon her
warlike preparations or retaliatory and
protective measures would be resorted
to. The text of the Turkeys circular
to the powers complaining of Bulgarias
military activities, which was prepared
before the proposed program of the
conference was published.
In view of this declaration there is
a good deal of doubt expressed as to
the truth of the Paris report.
The proposed conference of the pow
ers on the question of the revision of
the treaty of Berlin is still hanging
fire. but the negotiators seem to make
little progress.
In diplomatic circles it is not be-
lieyed that the visit to Parrs of NJ.
Iswolsky, the Russian minister of for
eign affairs, will have an important
bearing upon the solution of the pres
ent Balkan tangle. He conferred with
President Falliers today. 1t was
brought out during this time that the
visit is Russia's wish to prepare for
possible future contingencies, and to
safeguard her interests should the par
tition of the near east become a fact.
NJ. Iswolsky denied today that he had
given out the program for the confer
ence of the powers. Nevertheless 1t
has been confirmed in London that he
did impart the information that was
to be kept secret until calling of the
conference.
France will, it is expected, use all
her influence to prevent Bulgaria from
going to war with Turkey, when the
Turkish circular sent out yesterday
calling the attention of the powers to
Bulgaria's hasty preparations for war,
was received by the French foreign
minister. Mr.. Pichon. A telegram was
Immediately sent to the French minis
ter at Sofia, instructing him to renew
