Sofia, Sept. 20. via London. Sept. %.
Bulgaria apparently Is on the brink
of war. People believe that hostilities
are imminent. Military authorities
have taken control Of the railroads.
Diplomatic representatives here OF
The entente powers generally recognize
that their cause is lost one and that
Bulgaria is manifesting clearly a
tendency toward the central powers.
This is due to the dissatisfaction of
the government at Serbias reply in
the negotiations for territorial conces-
sions in Macedonia and at the conduct
Of Greece in this connection.
Entente Allies Lose Hope.
None of the allies representatives
here cherish longer the hope that Bull
saria can longer be prevented from
Joining with Germany. Austria and
Turkey.
In government circles the statement
was made that the military steps taken
were of preventive nature. These
measures consist OF taking over the,
railroads and suspending ordinary
traffic.
reports from various parts Of Bul.
aria tell of enthusiastic demonstra-
lions in favor OF the government. This
> symptomatic of public feeling. which
ioes not ignore the fact that the coun-
try is near to war.
Bulgaria Warned.
The formal session by Turkey OF the
erritory along tho Dedeaghaech rail-
rnad has been delayed by the action
of the entente powers In notifying
bulgaria that acceptance Of this terri
CRY would be regarded as an un-
'i'iendly act which would invite coun-
ter actions.
1t was learned today that King
ferdinand. replying last Friday to as
iertions OF leaders of the opposition
parties that the allies would be sue
sessful, said:
Nothing at this moment indicates
hat such will be the case. II Bull
,aria's chances OF obtaining Mace
ionia depend thereon they may never
re realized. My government Is fol-
owing a policy which Ia positive IN
lotion and certain of good results"
Rumors that Premier Radoslavoff Is
ikely to resign are characterized In
Competent quarters as unfounded.
Land Transfer, Oct. II.
ihe bulgarian government an
1ounced last night that the territory
,eded by Turkey along the line OF
The Dedeakhatch railroad would be
occupied on Oct. s. The official trans
er will occur on Oct. H. at which time
The Bulgarian administration will be
installed.
The note presented last week to tho
bulgarian government by the entente
powers was drafted In futile effort
to clear up the situation resulting from
the Bulgarian demand for Macedonia.
Among the new forces added recently
to tho Bulgarian army are about L.
500 officers.

and Coroner Feinberg and assistants
were also there.
Thousands Of persons pass along this
section OF Seventh avenue every morn
Ing on their way to and from Twenty

That more persons were not killed

Captain Won Papen to Be Transferred
70 Mexico at Once.
Washington, Sept. 22.-Capt. Franz
Won Papen the military attache OF the
German embassy. who figured in the
Dumba correspondence, Is en- route tc
Mexico.
This disposes finally OF any meas
ures by this government In connection
with the administration Of discipline
to the German officer who approved
the strike plan intrusted by the AUS
tro- Hungarian ambassador to James
F. J. Archibald for delivery to the Aus
.ro- Hungarian minister for foreign at
fairs.
Won Papen left New York some days
ago ostenslbly for Yellowstone Park
and California. Count Won 3ernstorfr
the German ambassador, made no Sc
cret of the fact that the officer would
no longer serve as a member Of the
embassy staff. The difficulty Of pro-
curing safe conduct for him from
the British government was ap-
preciated, and the report was allowed
to gain currency that Won Papen
would take leave and eventually re-
turn to his own country.
II appears now, however-and the
fact is giving the administration con-
cern-that Won Papen has been trans
ferred to another scene where his pc
culiar activities can be utilized. He
will go to Mexico to aid the German
legation.
what i. Of interest to the govern
ment in connection with this assign
ment - that the German diplomats in
the neighboring republic" have been
involved in movements designed to
continue the turmoil and involve the
United states. Il has been the view
of Berlin that II this government were
to intervene In Mexico our hands
wouId be 80 full that we would look
with greater tolerance upon the Ger
man Submarine operations. The rep
resentatives Of Germany In Mexico,
therefore, have been active hrst In this
and then in that direction. and sup
ported by them, and inferentiaily by
the!r government. the Carranza rae
ton particularly has felt able to treat
the Wilson administration more I'M
pudently than It otherwise might have
done.
because the state department has
not been able to get exact evidence
to establish the German activity. 1t
has not been possible to make repre-
sentations on the subject In Berlin.
The department has merely watched
the progress Of events and gathered
all the information 1t could.
what role Won Papen will play In
Mexico Is not known. 1t is assumed

German legation there.

New York, Sept. 22.-The success of
the Anslo-French financial commits
sion seeking to establish a great credit
loan here for Great Britain and France
was virtually assured today, according
to financiers in close touch with the
situation.
An announcement that an agreement
had been reached within the next
Wall street.
The optimism of the bankers was
not dimmed by the report that two de-
tails were yet to be agreed on by the
commission and it's American con-
ferees. These two details, it was re-

Importance and an agreement was ex-
pected on them shortly, probably to-
day.

Pro-German Bankers Help.
Members of at least two big finan-
cial institutions regarded as pro-Ger-
man in their sympathies. were said 70
have pledged their support to the pro-
ject and others were expected to fall
in line. One OF the two was Kuhn.
Loeb & Co, whose power in the flnan-
cial world has been rated as second

firm itself will not subscribe to the Is
cue. 1t was said but there were indica-
tions that some of the firms members
would subscribe as individuals.
Other powerful financial interests. 1t
was said. also were willing to sub
scribe This report was strengthened
by the presence during the day of VIII
liam Rockefeller and Henry c. Frick
at the office of j. p. Morgan & co. Mr..
Morgan has been devoting virtually his
entire time recently to the negotiations
and it was announced that some of the
Rockefeller and Frick millions would
