Austria wants to grab off Turk
ish territory, or, failing this, to
prevent any Balkan state doing
so.
Russia wants the Balkan state
to grab off Turkish territory be-
cause Russia's influence with the
Balkan states is paramount.
Austria has three army divis-
ions massed on the Balkan from
tier. Russia has $4,000 men ready
to pour into Austria.
The French foreign office is
straining every nerve to get the
powers to Intervene in the Bal
kans before Rustria and Russia
lock horns.
Tht French count on the sup,
port of Great Britain and Italy in
this, but Germany's position is
doubtful.
Germany is the ally of Austria.

garian victories over Turkey are
being received with the widest
enthusiasm here.
The Bulgars are kinsmen of the
Russians, and the press here de-
clares that if Tsar Ferdinand's
men occupy Constantinople it
will not be Russia that drives
them out.
London.-The fear of a general
European war in which Great
Britain undoubtedly will be in
volved is increasing here hourly.
The speech of Lord Roberts,
field marshal and commander-in-.
chief of the army, in which he
warned Britons~ that a solemn
hour is at hand" still is ringing
in the ears of the people.
The fall of Uskub before the
Serbs, and of Scutari before the
Montenegrins, is expected at any
moment. Adrianople is not ex-
pected to hold out against the
victory-fushed Bulgars much
longer.
And if Adrianople falls, what
then? The road to CONSTANT

will be clear before the Bulgars.
And if Bulgaria, ally of Rus

miracle will prevent a European
war in which every great power
will be involved.
