London, Sept. 22:-AlI Europe
today was in state of feverish ex-
element because of momentous
development in the Balkans. A re-
port that Bulgaria has ordered mo-
bilization has been confirmed from
both ally and pro-German sources.
Other dispatches reaching London
from all continental capitals made
it certain that Gear Ferdinand has
decided to cast his lot with the
Kaiser and will declare war on
Servia before many hours.
Bulgarians are massing along the
Servian border. All railroads have
been taken over by the government
General Savoff, commander of the
Bulgarian armies in the two Balkan
wars, has been summoned to the
capital to take command of the Bull
garian troops.
The streets of Sofia yesterday
were filled with shouting crowds of
war enthusiasts and the police
promptly put down all demonstra-
tions by Bulgarians opposed to war.
All messages regarding Bulgarian
mobilization were withheld from
publication until today The early
editions of London newspapers car
ried the announcements that the
Bulgarian government had notified
its diplomats of mobilization orders
with the statement that Bulgaria
had decided merely to change from
unarmed to armed neutrality, The
wording of the statements led to the
belief in some circles that mobiliza-
ton would not necessarily be follow
ed by Bulgarias entrance into the
war. An accumulation of dispatch
es increased the feeling of pessimism
here. Dispatches came from Athens,
Berlin, Vienna, Rome, Copenhagen
and Geneva. London would not be
surprised to hear of clashes between
Servian and Bulgarian frontiers be-
fore tomorrow.

The police are inclined to believe
the disaster was caused by the ex-
plosion of dynamite used in the con-
rstruction work.
Says Hundreds Are Hurt.
NJ. P. Mcmahon, of the Church of
st. Vincent said he believed at least
loo rescued from the cave in are be-
ing cared for in hospitals or private
homes, many of them being injured
slightly. At the St Vincent hospital
twenty-five have been brought in.
Enormous crowds of persons en-
route to work rushed from surrund-
ing streets, but police threw up the
barriers as quickly as possible.
The subway in which the accident
occurred was under construction and
no trains were operating in the
wrecked tomb at the time of the ac-
cident
Persons who saw the cave in from
windows from Seventh avenue build
ings, telephoned the police that sew
eral bodies had been taken out,
These reports were not confirmed.
Car Was Crowded.
The street car was jammed with
an early morning crowd en- route to
work. According to reports reach
ing the police, the entire avenue
above the. subway tune gave way sud
denly and then settled wffS11faft
crash. This led to reports that a1
explosion of gas had wrecked the
tube and caused the cave In.
TIL. car fell about thirty feet, it is
estimated, and debris from the sides
of the cave in poured in upon the
tube. almost completely hiding it
from sight. Some of the persons In
the neighborhood insisted that they
heard muffled report, as if from an
explosion just before the street gave
way.
Commissioner Woods at Scene
Police Commissioner Woods arrived
on the scene in an automobile and be-
gan personally directing the work of
rescue. The street car was in the CEN
ter of the block when the cave-in oc-
Cured. 1t sank in slowly Many
women were on the rear platform when
the street gave way according to eve
witnesses and they made vain efforts
to escape. At least a score of ambu-
lances were rushed TO the scene of the
accident
At 9 O'Clock policemen, who had
been assisting in the rescue work. said
only one dead body had been actually
taken out and that they had seen only
about six persons who were badly in
jured. Others might still be in the
debris, they said. A big brewery truck
went down with crash. Many persons
were hurled from the sidewalk and
tumbled into the great trench and
everyone who was in the street itself
was ehgulfed.
Estimates of the dead and injured
were wildly at variance on account of
the great confusion and ranged every
where from one to twenty-five. ose
rescued from the pit were hurried aw&T
in ambulanees or taken into neighboring
places so that the police could not get
collective figures at once, At $3.50 the
police said there were two known dead
and six reported - missing.

Petrograd, Sept. 22.-Both Riga
and Petrograd are now safe from
Germans, the war officials declared
today, as the result of the Russian
victories around Dvinsk and the re-
ported withdrawal of German troops
for great Balkan drive. The report
ed reverse suffered by the enemies in
their attempt to take the outer de-
fenses of Dvinsk has effected the
morals of the German troops.
Fighting in this region continues
more violent, but there is a noticea-
BILE lack of vigor in Tueton assaults

statement given early today was al
most completely private, regarding
the Wilma operations, but 1t is ac-
cepted here that the Russians have
invaded the German troops just as
they did at Warsaw, piling their re-
treat perfectly. The czar's troops
are now falling back upon Minck, it
is believed, thus Strengthening their

Marshal Jordan and Curlcy Lo. veil arrived from Dime creek yester- day forenoon having remained Sun day night at Safety. They brought with them two men from tho com ing Fl Dorado of the Koyuk, charg- ed with being the proprietors of blind tigers, or sightless pigs, which you will. The names of the alleged delinquents are Fergncss and Riley.
 Yesterday afternoon in the Dis trict Court Fergncss YVES arraigned on the charge of purveying fire water without a license, Lowell swearing to the information. Ferg- ness waived formalities and pleaded guilty. When asked whether he wanted sentence now or later he said he would take it right now" District Attorney Saxton thought that a fine of $25O would fill the bill and Judge Tucker metcd out sentence accordingly. The Court di- rected that the defendant remain in custody of the United States Mar shal until fine was liquidated.
 
 It may not be known thct by 6 law passed by the last legislature all persons, companies CT corpora tio1s have to pay Q license to mine The license is however to cost no- thing until the output amounts to five thousand dollars net when one per cent of such net returns will have to be paid. A penalty is pro v.ded for failing to take cut license. A company which has been doing business for some time in Nome received communication from Juneau telling them thev would hcvo to pay forty dcl.ars for a license.
 The other day Russian came to Jimmy Hewitt of tho Headquarters saloon and obtain.d some money or a certificate of deposit in the Alaska Bank. The certificate was for $20o or whereabouts end at different times Hewitt advanced sums of varying amount duly endorsed upon hn nf ho to Monday the full amount was turned over. When the certificate was pre- scented at the bank, it was found that the sum it called for had been paid year ago, tho Russian claim ing then that he had burned the certificate and a merchant going se- curity for the amount. Thus the matter stands, two hundred dol lar mystery!
