Wdr Among the Allies.

No sooner was the treaty signed which among other things specified that all par ties to 1t should henceforth remain for ever at peace with each other, than war broke out among the allies. Greece and Servia. angry at Bulgarias larger share of the spells, attacked her on the west and south, and Roumania brought up all its forces on the east. The Greeks and Ser vians fought the Bulgarians with great savagery, and massacres and other out rages were charged by each party after the war. Roumania went into Silistria, which 1t had demanded.
 Encouraged by all this, the Turks began hostilities again and defeated the Bulgar- ians at Kirk Kilesseh, and entered Adria- nople in triumph The Bulgarians lost all the reputation they had gained in the war against Turkey They also had to submit to the loss of much of the territory they had occupied Greece's territory was in- creased 10000 square miles and Servia's about the same amount Roumania took Silistria, and even Montenegro extended it's borders Turkey kept Adrianople.
 Albania was set up as a kingdom, with Prince William of Wied as king. He has twice been chased out of his capital, and 1t is not likely that he will remain long in power.

CHAPTER Y. PRESENT TIME.
By HERBERT CANTON.

Copyright: 1914, By The Tribune company.l 1 ROM about 1870 to the present year E a time of peace and industrial
 progress in central and western
 Europa It Is true that in some
 countries 1t was peace with the hand the sword, and more than one occa- sion the scabbard was nearly thrown away, but no actual break came and international relations were amicable. on the surface at least.
 France had some minor wars of con- quest In distant colonies and went through the Dreyfus scandal, which stirred the nation to danger point. England had Egyptian troubles and it's two Boer wars and the Russian empire contested with Japan the mastery of the east
 Italy, like other overpopulated countries of Europe, embarked between 1870 and 1880 upon a policy of colonization. In the latter year it occupied some territory on the Red sea with the tacit consent of Great Britain and the porte. After some explorers had been killed by natives and Italian troops had gone to the locality partly to help pacify the Sudan, hostilities between Italy and the negus of Abyssinia broke out which lasted several years, be- cause of Italy's attempt to extend her zone of occupation.

Balkans Under Moslem Yoke.

It will be necessary, however to explain more about the Balkan situation, one of the most complicated questions which has ever vexed the political world.

Although something of self-government was accord ed some of it's provinces they were still under the dominion of the sultan.
 Moldavia and Wallachia were allowed to unite, with ruler called the Prince of Roumania, but after term of great dis turbance the people of the state, which is that now known Roumania, called the present ruler. who still reigns as King Charles. Being a Prussian prince. he built up the army in true Prussian style~ This was necessary. for Roumania was designed to block Russia's designs on Turkey This preceded the Russan-Tu war of 1877 which has already been described The treaty of Berlin, which followed this struggle. left the Balkan states in a some what better condition than they had been. but Turkey still had in some cases nom- inal and in others an actual control over them Besides this. Russia, which had been cheated of her spells of war and thrown out of the triple alliance, was still looking on with angry eyes.

Then Austria, Germany and Great Britain intimidated the Montenegrins and compelled them to evacuate Scutari after they had taken it.

port government measures. It only needs a reform in the representative system to put them in complete control of the rechstag
 The government has steadily refused to redistrict the empire hence the popula- tions comprising the various constituencies are grossly unequal. For instance, the city of Berlin with over 2,O00OO0 people, is represented in the reichstag by only six members average of S50.c00 people to each representative. while schaumberg- Lippe With only 9.s91. has one member Other large cities are similarly treated In East Prussia, which Is strongly con servative, there is one member to 191 O0o population. The tendency of cities to send Socialist representatives to the reichstag prevents the basis of representation being readjusted
 The increase in population demanded an outlet. Room had to be provided for the constantly increasing surplus Large num- bers went to South America and else- where, but this was not what the empire wanted. It wanted land of it's own So colonization began. Gradually a foothold was secured in Africa and in the islands between Australia and Java. Commercial treaty towns acquired in China and elsewhere. Whenever there was dis turbance abroad German cruiser ap- peared and in the settlement of the dis pute a German diplomat demanded that his country have it's share in whatever division made.
 So far these colonies can scarcely be said to pay for their maintenance. but they fly the German flag and they furnish bases for future commercial or naval enter. prises.

 The old emperor has been singularly un- fortunate personally. The Crown Prince Rudolph was murdered; the Empress Eliza beth, wife of the emperor. died by an assassin's hand, and several heirs apparent presumptive renounced their right of succession. Archduke John, brother. dis appeared and heard of. and in June of this year the heir apparent, Arch duke Franz Ferdinand, the emperor'3 nephew, also was assassinated while visit ing in Bosnia
 Since the treaty of Berlin Austria had occupied Bosnia and Herzegovina, the provinces formerly belonging to Turkey This fact was the cause of great resent ment the part of the Balkan states and of Russia, for large part of the people of those provinces were Slavs. In 1908 Austria formally annexed the provinces promising them constitution and declar- ing the Sanjak of Novipazar would be given back to Turkey. She also paid Fur key about 62500.000 francs. Servia made great objection to the annexation, and for a time both countries were the verge of war
 The great powers, however, consented to abrogate section 25 of the Berlin treaty, thus giving Austria a free hand in the two provinces, and, to the astonishment of the Balkans, Russia agreed to this. It Is believed that she was obliged to do so because Germany threatened to mobilize her troops on the Russian border unless she consented
 From that time until the great Balkan war there was nervous suspense in all Europe.
