Itussia's action is absolutely unwairantalilu

Is absuid. No power Is less interested
than Kngland. Alexander was nominally

LONDON , August 'A ! . .Salisbury retutned
to London this moming. He had along In
terview with the Kail of Ithlcslcigh , foreign
minister. The coup d'etat in Bulgaria was
a complete surptlse to both mlnlsteis. Tlm
securities which were allcelcd by the litst
receipt ol tlm news fiom Solia aie now
recoverln . A dispatch from Vienna
to the Times , contains tlm following :
"Piinco Alexander was deposed bv

cmbaik thence on Sunday for Severin. In
Wallachia. B-iiimanla. A dispatch from
lliichaiest , capital of Itoumaiiia , states all
nmvs from Itulg.uia comes at present thiongh
olllcial com lots and that no private peison is
allowed to enter or leave Bulgaiia. The tele
graph lines , tlm dispatch adds , have
all been stopped trom operation The
story of deposition is as follows :
Karavclolf , piium minister , entered
tlm palace at Sophia ami explained to Alex-
antler that public opinion of Bulgaiia was
dissatisfied with his policy and demanded
his disposition. The piince said : " 1 see no
fi lends , I cannot resist. "
Ao nubile meellng has been held iu Solia
anil Icuslchnk and In all of them proclama
tion of tlm change of tlm government was ic-
celvcd with favor. Tlm people lejoiceover
the coup w lileli they say ended an intolerable
situation. Tlm Bulgarians aie puisuadcd
Itussla will now assist them to
consummate a union which they think
It was Tin key's ' design to
fiushate. Alexander wr.s taken complete
ly by surprise. lie was astonished at tlm
Midden liu'sting ' of tlio plot upon him. Kara-
\elol1 had managed tlm whole allair ( with
such koniecy that the only indication of tlm
comingstoim was tlm mutinous sphitno-
tlceabli ! among the troops. Tlm piinco had
oideied the eiicnlatlon of papers among .mm
which openly declined that he alone was the
only obstacle to tlm union , but Ills eiders
in this respect weie not obeyed.
Tlm allection of the common people tor tlm
piinco remains undemlnished. A telegram

based entirely npon tlm fact that Medina , the

ended the pioceedlngs of tlm state. Cutting
replied : "As long as I am not further de

request that the copy of the decree bo given
mo for future use. " Tlm court consented to
this in Spanish. To a rcpoiter Cutting said :

said on tlm other side of the liver that the
