7. R: & POTTER
TURNED DOWN

After debate that continued
for more than 80 minutes, the
city council today temporarily
turned down the proposition of
the Tacoma Railway & Power
Co. to furnish auxiliary power to
the city in exchange for a permit
to compete with the city plant in
the sale of light and power.
The final action resulted when
City Attorney Stiles declared that
the council would directly violate
the city charter by permitting
the T. r. & p. Co. to sell light
current, and reminded the coun-
Gil that 1t was on this very ground
that the T. r. & p. franchise was
revoked last year.

to insure continuous service, but
we can't afford to let the trac-
tion company to re-enter the light

BULGARIA TO REFUSE ALLIES.

STATES UNLESS SIZE GETS :
MACEDONIA.
Serbia Will Not Yield Territory
Action POstpOncd-Prcscnt Issue
Has Renewed SnOldering Fcuds
Among the Balkans.

London, Thursday, Aug. 12.-De-
layed by Censor r.)-There are strong
indications that Serbia will give flat
refusal to the demands announced by
the Bulgarian premier. Vassil Ra-
doslavoff, three weeks ago, and that
the hopes of the Entente allies Of
bringing Bulgaria into the alliance
viii come to nought according to
some diplomats here.
Scrbia's formal reply has not been
given, but those best posted in diplo-
matte quarters say that Bulgaria's S de-
mands far exceed anything that Serbia
possibly could yield. =
The outcome is being watched with
the keenest interest by the chancel-
lors throughout Europe. as Bulgaria
is the chief obstacle to united action
by the Balkan States in joining the
entente allies and thus throwing the
Balkan barrier between the cwtral
powers and Turkey.
Bulgaria contends that by treatt
with Serbia, the latter ceded to Buf
garia about 1000 kilometers Of Macet
donia, which Bulgaria was compelleA
by the great powers to relinquisk
during her enfeebled condition after
the second Balkan war. Bulgaria now
insists that the original treaty be car
ried out and that unless she receives
the return of Macedonia she will re.
fuse to join the other Balkan States
in assisting the allies.
The present issue has renewed the
smoldering feuds among the Balkans
and much bitterness is said to have
developed in the course Of the nego-
tiatiOns, all pointing to Serbias refusal
| to yield Macedonia and to Bulgaria
Withholding her support from the en-
tente powers.
