TIE PRESENT SITUATION IN
THE BALKANS.

The acceptance by Turkey of money
damages for the loss of suzcrainty over
Bosnia and Herzegovina removes one OF
the dangers of war in the East Aus
tria had occupied these provinces Tor
thirty years and there was not the
slightest reason to believe That she
would ever surrender them. But her
action trampled on the Berlin treaty
and IL still remains to satisfy the other
powers who signed 1T. The fact that
the dual monarchy has agreed to pay
slOO000O0 for a good title to the prov
inces Is proof of the fact that sigma
tory powers cannot lightly absolve
themselves from the obligations OF a
treaty solemnly entered into. If Aus
tria were now to assent TO a conference,
confess her fault. submit as an extern
Ja ting circumstance payment to TW-
key, and promise to be good forever
after. she would save Europe's face.
Even with this question out of the
way. there would remain the unrest OF
Servia and Montenegro and the Slavs
in the Balkans. The Slavs have been
looking forward for many years to a
great independent Slav state, embracing
from nine to ten millions of people
Their ambitions have stirred mp most
OF the troubles in the East The worst
blow that has ever fallen on their hopes
came with Austria'- assumption OF full
sovereignty over Bosnia and Herzego-
vina, and with the coup of the Young
Turks. giving Turkey constitutional
government. ON this point the London
Spectator says.
The SlaEs throughout a huge part
Of nom Russian Europe are the pre-
dominating portion OF the population
Yet hardly anywhere have their racial
aspirations received satisfaction. Rus
ria is the only great power which can
be called "a SlaEOulc state, and Russia
for many reasons external and inter
nal is unwilling OF unable 10 give IulI
scope TO her SlaTOuIc sEmpatLles- I'm
spite of these obstacles the SlaEe are

They are convinced, is destined TO play

With peace established on a firm
basis between Austria and Turkey,
with Turkey satisfied with its parlia-
mcnt. with Austria holding Bosnia and

ALL DOGS MAY
WEAR MUZZLES
LEGISLATURE MAY PASS a LAW
TO THIS EFFECT AT THE
PREoENr SESSION.

u Is very likely that the present
general assembly viii frame some law
fer the myJlsory muzzling Of dogs
in order 70 eradicate rabies and in
that way to reduce The number OF
cases Of hydrophobia in the state in
future
According 20 many OF the highest
medical authorities in the country
there is no doubt but that If such a
law is put into thorough effect it will
accomplish the desired end. A law
Of this kind is heartily recommended
by Or. J. Edgar Paullin. who is in
charge OF the Pasteur Institute of the
state board Of health in Atlanta.
According TO Dr.. Paullin, rabies was
especially prevalent in the state dur
ing the past year, more than five hum
dred cases Of hydropho0ia commune
Gated to persons BY rabid dogs having
come under his personal observation
for treatment during that time. 1t is
Or. Paullin's opinion that rabies Is
very much on the increase.
Il is very gratifying IN this parfcu-
lar 10 note thar rabies IS very rare
in Brunswick, only a very few eases
having come under the observation
OF the health department OF the city.
Brunswick is far more fortunate IN
this particular than many other cities
Of the state, as is shown by the re-
cords OF the state toard Of health

Paris, May 12.-PariS today re-
semblcd a city in state Of siege. Dur
ing the night troops took possession ii
the central post and telegraph stations
and at daylight squads of infantrymen
were picketed around every branch Of
flee. The streets are being patrollcd
by the mounted Republican Guards,
all exposed telegraph lines are being
carefully watched and soldiers have
been introduced even into the sewers
of the city to prevent the cutting of
wires These precautions were taken
to protect the postal employees who
are willing to work and prevent the
threatened Sabotage" or destruction
OF property.
Furthermore. 500 military telegraph
crs and several hundred automobiles
have been hastily modified and mass
ed in the Galerie dcs Machines, ready
for instant service. General Dalstein,
the military governor of Paris, has
10000 troops in reserve.
The walls of Paris are covered this
morning with posters announcing that
the strike will continue until the
grievances of the strikers are redress

But beyond the railroad mail clerks.
the number who have abandoned work
is comparatively small The first two
deliveries of mail were effected without
the aid of troops. At the strikers
headquarters there are evidences OF
great activity but much secrecy pre-

In the provinces the tactics adopted
by the government here are being re-
peated Last night the postmen OF
Lyons and Bordeaux voted to join their
Partisan colleagues.
The press generally reproaches the
Charcbcr of Deputies for it's cowardice
yesterday in postponing a vote on the
postal situation. thus throwing the en-
tire responsibility on the government
It is understood, however, that Premier
Clemcnccau preferred nom parliament
tary action for tactical reasons, first,
to force the postmen to open battle
and second to permit the government
to put its measures into operation. This
places Parliament in the position where
it Will be compelled to approve or aban-
