Washington. Jan. 22.-Charge Kin
stein, head of the American legation
at Sofia, has been instructed by cable
to surrender if Bulgaria insists upon
it, the British vice-consul there who
took refuge in his quarters When Bull
garia ordered the arrest of enemy con-
sular officers in retaliation for the
seizure of the consuls at Saloniki.
The consuls were arrested soon after
the military occupation of Saloniki on
the charge that they were communi-
eating military information to the Bull
garians outside of the city to direct
an attack upon the town by enemy
aeroplanes. The condition of release
will be that the consuls should not re-
sumo their function at Saloniki but
must return to their own countries.
Arrangements already have been made
for the return to Turkey of the Turkish
consul by a devious route which will
take him by water to France or Italy,
thence by rail to Switzerland, from
which country he can find his way
through Germany and Austria to Tur-
key.
The state departments activity in
this case was exercised in pursuance
of the duty it assumed at the outbreak
of the war of looking after the inter-
ests of the citizens of most of the war
