NEW FRONTIER SETTLED
Rumania and Bulgaria Come to
Terms at Bucharest.

Bucharest. Aug. 3.-The Balkan peace
conference is making steady progress,
but it is hardly possible that a prelimi-
nary peace treaty can be signed by the
time the five days armistice expires
this week. and therefore Rumania has
proposed three days extension of the
compact The new frontier between
Runania and Bulgaria as agreed upon
will start twelve kilometres south OF
Baltrk. a port on the Black Sea, run
northwesteTly TO a point twelve klo-
metres south of Dobrich and finish nine
kilometres west of Turtukai, on the
Danube. about forty miles southeast OF
bucharest. It is understood the allies
will abandon their demand for an in
demnity from Bulgaria
The disposition Of Kavla, in the vllayet
OF Salonica on the Egean Sea, remains
the thorniest problem which the peace
conference has TO settle, and which seems
destined to produce another war within
a few years even If it is settled now
without further hostilities.

From The Tribune Buroaul

Washington. Aug. 3.-There is much
comment in official circles over the de-
cision of the Senate Committee on Foreign
a Mexican revolutionist. to appear and tell
what he knows about Mexico. Colonel
Hay is affiliated with the constitutional
lists. and II is said here that his fellow
revolutionists tacitly agreed on him as
the man best fitted TO set forth the rebel
case. He is expected TO present TO the
Senate committee his views In favor Of
lifting the embargo which prevents the
unrestricted Importation Of arms by the
rebels from this country.
The unusual character Of the situation
lies In the fact that a leader Of the re-
belion against the Huerta government
will find II possible TO obtain hearing
before the Senate committee while the
executive branch OF the government. as
represented by the White House and the
Department Of State. will have nothing
whatever officially to do with either Colo
mel Hay or any Of his colleagues.
It is possible that the Senate commit
tee may abandon It's intention Of hearing
the Mexican colonel. II Is said that Presi
dent Wilson wants no more agitation
about Mexico at the other end Of Penn
sylvania avenue. He is still studying the
situation. and will announce some de
cision soon. In the mean time he wishes
to avoid stirring up talk
