Former War Minister Warns Against
Break With Russia.

London, Oct. 7.-Russia's ultimatum
to Bulgaria remains unanswered. The
crown council of that state is reported
to have discussed for several hours
the terms of the ultimatum without
reaching a decision.
London takes it for granted that the
policies of King Ferdinand and his
ministers are so shaped as to favor
the central powers; but strong oppo-
sition to participation in the war has
developed in Sofia.
The Bulgarian premier, M. Radosla-
voff, has declared, according to Ber-
lin newspaper: I'VE confront war and
must defend our national interests.
We must wrest from our enemies ev-
erything they took from us two years
ago."
General Savoff, the former Bulgar'
ian minister of war, is quoted as say
ing: Every Bulgarian who breaks
away from Russia commits an act OF
treason towards his country"
