TROOPS MARCH
TO NAB REBEL
Bulgarian Government Orders
Arrest of Belligerent
Macedonian

Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 24.--(AP)-
Troops were marching today on
Petritch, stronghold of Ivan Michai-
loft. leader Of the belligerent fac
ton of the Macedonian revolution
ary party. The order that soldiers
arrest Michailoff came after an ex-
change of defiances between the
leader and the government. It was
expected that bitter fighting would
ensue in the attempt to capture
Michailoff.
The government sent an ultimatum
ordering him to discontinue all acts
of terrorism and to abandon his
march on Sofia. He replied that
federal members Of the Bulgarian
government deserved death and
termed them the greatest enemies
of the Macedonian people.
The government then sent troops
after Michailoff and rushed large
contingents Of soldiers into Sofia
from the outlying districts to rein
force the garrison. Strong sentry
forces were placed around all gov
eminent buildings and = doubled DO
lice guard protected members Of the
cabinet.
Athanase Buroff. foreign min
lister, acknowledged in parliament
that the government was powerless
to crush the revolutionary move
ment. This statement added to the
fears Of the population which be-
lieved that general martial law was
inevitable.
Should the situation force the
cabinet to resign this would prob
ably only throw the country into
further confusion and possibly give
Michailoff the upper hand. The
main purpose of his threatened
march is to show that he is master
of the revolutionary forces and to
insist upon their demands being
granted. He also wishes to remove
by violence all those who have joined
rival Macedonian groups.
