the government Is weak. .
MAClmONIA AND BULGARIA.
I has been asserted that Bulgaria was ro-
mentng the disturbances In Macedonia , all
i' I has been denlcII. The truth Is that there

They hall ( Itle been drIven out by the
barbarities of the Turk or they left In search
' ( r that employment which their own deso-
hated country could no longer give them. They
are agriculturists , masons carpenters servants -
ants , and there are not a few of a higher
position In life , some of whom have become
ofeers In the Bulgarian army. These are : :

knows that ahe will not be alowed to anneX

: . Austria has never taken her eyes oft Sulonlca

worth anything which does not take account
S of Austria's longing for a seaport on the

the wore horrors or an armed struggle
'
against the Turk , with 'Uto hope ) ot success
save II a turn of events she cannot control
I . Europe must eventually interfere but Europe
bas at present more than enough on hand In
Armenia.
ARMENIAN ( DD.E CONTINUES.
. ' The Armenian IUCSlln Is chronic. At last
I ls becoming acute. Europe was for a long
time skeptical about outrages and oppression
In Armenia They were urged on public at-
tentLn by journals without authority . and In
that sensational form which In Europe makes
little Impression on the public Judgment. In-
qulries omclal and otherwise , conducted In a
more sober spirit , at last convinced Europe
and especially England , which under the
treaty of Berlin has a special mandate ali
misIon for the protection of persecuted Ar-
menia. I Is now some months since the
European : commission sent to inquire Into the
condition ot things In Armenia reported. Its
report was a catalogue ot horrors. Demands
were made upon lie sultan for redress antiS
S reform , France and Russia joining In these
demands with England , but leaving to Eng-
land the first place . , which under the treaty
' belonled to her.
The sultan first rerused to accede , then
like further information , then
sail he would 1eo Inrormaton
t promised certaIn rerorms then withdraw his
promise then under advice ot a new grand
, 'I.ler , agreed to carry out such recommenda-
k tons as did not contct with Turkish law.
Instantly upon receIpt or thla answer Sir
Philip Currie BrUlsh ambassador at Constan
. l'hllp
- . - tincple. sent bls dragoman to the porte wih
S an ofclal copy ot the proposed reforms anti
the request that the grand vizier would nut
a mark against such ot them as In his opin-
Ion wer contrary to Turkish 13W. The vizier
1ecllned. le had no authorlt
ENGLAND UNiTED ON TIS , .
Meantime the general election In England ,
had oceurrel1 Lord Salisbury . who Is ror-
elgn minister aR well as prime mlnltor , was
known lo have the nation at his back. The
sultan once more changed Ils mind , and i
lr ) mull In a general way that there should
bo a change or admlnbtraton In rmenla. .
Hut the change was still to leave Armenia
under absolute control or Turkish authorities
and that European supervision which alone
could Insure neaco and order and humanity
, 11t.CD lumanly
was still denlcd.
I was In these clrcumstance that the
meeting al Chester was hehl last Tuesday
over whlc the duke or Westminster pre- I
sided with Mr. Gladstone as chief orator.
SIngular conjunction or two men who stant at
the two opposite poles or English thought all

Ient between them , a well as I political
I * nqonism , , , dating from lSSG , and Mr. Giad. .

Their meetng ou the same platform marks
the 1I\llllty or English feeling. Mr. Gad-
'tone' speech It fuppoll1 to have advanced
the Armenian cause anti Itrengthened Lord
Fhtsburys hand. 1 deea strengthen Lord

S . Io'\e' \ , presence w. evidence ot that , but
c. )2111 ) apeec wal violent sad Injutlclous , and
he let loote hia rhetoric on this sultan. There
1" no occasion for rhetoric. The facts are
quite hrrlble enough. Mr. Gladstone , how-
ever , bi , seldom . been happy In 11 handling
of fullLI quetouI , and tbs oplulons of b !
foreign policy and or hIs speeche on for-
eign policy held and expressed by European
statesmen are ot 0 nature to surprise his
American idolators. They shrug theIr shoul-
tiers over this Chester performance , and the
sultan Is the stonger , not the weaker , for
Mr. Gladstone's intemperate denunciations.
WHAT SALISnUlY MAY DO.
Lord Salisbury , hoover , and not Mr.
Gladstone , 1 responsible \ for English policy ,
and he will have to act. I Is possible , not
probable that the sultan will consent to
real reforms In Armenia and to those rather
moderate demands , which Ir complied with
would insure the execution of these reforms.
I nol , force or some kind must be used
There Is the old remedy of sending the feet
to Constantinople. Lord Salisbury thinks that
inexpedient. lie Is more likely to semI It to
Salonlca or SmYna , occupy one or beth or
these ports , collect the customs revenue , anti
so put upon the stubborn tyrant or Armenia
that kind or pressure he Is least able to
resist. The Turk 18 a stoic and might pos-
seas liis soul In patience with a foreign feet
In one or his harbors. But finance Is his
weak point , and to an attack on his finances
he must presently succumb. Smyrna Is the
foremost port or trade In the Levant. The
Turkish tariff Is simplicity Itself. All Im-
ports are taxed S per cent ad valorem.

England In Constantnople , luve since changed
their minds , and :1 , Neldo ! Is believed to 1
bo now working honesty with Sir Philip
Currie.
LITTLE TO WORRY OVER.
England and the continent have had a rather
quiet wee Ie. There Is anxety : In ra'nce about
Madagascar and evllenUy some doubt whether
General Ducheno will force or find hits way
to Antananarivo before the practicable season
ends. 7here II angry criticism . and appar-
enty just criticism , on the French war office
for its Inadequate preparations. Detais or
dlseso and death are finding theIr way
homo In private letters , rlgd ! as are the
restrfltlcns upon letter writing , whether pub-
lie or prIvate.
The French , or course are casting angry
glances across the frontier , where the Germans -
mans are celebrating the victories or 18iO and
Isu. Why they should not celebrate them
has never been explained. The French listen
with not less resentment to the speech or
the German emperor at Cowes to the sailors
or the German ship or war Woerth. The
young kaiser has made so many Indiscreet
speeches that on more or less (102s not
greatly matter. r Is only Ir he should be
prudent and wary that Europe would begin
to think something was the matter. When
he speaks ! as he did at COWlS of occasions
for further deeds or valor he means no more
than a weather prohpet who predict a storm.
England at any rate gives herself no trouble
about these belligerent effusions or her
queen's grandson.
England Is for the moment very much at
peace with herself and the root or the world
the Turk excepted , and the Chinese excepted ,
and the Frenchman In Slam excepted and
perhaps Venezuela and Brazil also excepted.
The unionIsts are In such good temper over
theIr vIctory that they show themselves mag-
Inlmous , as In declining to turn out a liberal
speaker In thc House or Commons. The rad-
Icals have not begun to recover from their
defeat , nor to know whether they have a
policy , or what It Is. The only faction left
with vialiy enough or temper enough for a
quarrel Is the Irish faction. : Ir. McCarthy
has been attacking Mr. Healy In a violent
manifesto a column long all : Ir. Healy has
published a vIolent reply two columns long.
Such Is the Irish way or promoting that
union or Irish hearts and hands without which
no efficient Irish agitation Is possible.
PAUNCEFOn ] WILL STAY.
The London report that Sir Julan Paunee-
rote , British ambassador at Vashington Is to
be transferred to Berlin comes ( rom a paper
not likely to be well Informed on foreign
ofce matters . I know of no reason why he
should be retired or transferred , The change
01 administration In England 19 no reason.
H Is not the custom In that country to turn
out a capable public servant because he Is
not or the prevailing party opinion .on do-
mestc affairs. There Is but one opinion
about Sir Julan Pauncefote and the way In
which he has represented his government
He Is very popular In Washington , and he Is
one or the ablest men ever sent here from
Great Britain , In some Important respects
undoubtedly the ablesl. or his good will
to this country there never was any more
doubt than ot the commanding capacity with
which he transacted the business or his own
government. H will be for the welfare of
both nations that he shoulll remain ambassador -
dor at Washington.

LONDON , Aug. 10.e'v ( York World Ca-
blegra-Special , Telegram.-I ) am afraid
English sportsmen despite the general Impression -
pression to the contrary , do not take defeat
easily. While their sporting antI daly news-
papers rang with contemptuous abuse for
Cornel for accepting a race on a technicality .
I have counted five conspicuous events since
on field anti flood . In which a horse or a
yacht has been awarded a race on mere tech-
nlcal ' es. and the owner has not failed to
accept the award , nor has any newspaper
hInted that he should not have done so. In
two or these events English royalty has been
concerned Last year : Ir. Frank Wills , the
wel known yachtsman and owner of the Am-
phirIte , stated In the yachting world his extreme -
treme anxiety to arrange 1 match with : Ir.
Drooks' AmerIcan yacht , Lasca. At Cowes
this week his Amphirie met Mr. Palmer's
American yacht . Tampa , and was very badly
beaten but Mr. Wis promptly entered a
protest that Mr. Palmer had violated the
rules by employing a few extra men and on
this trifling technlcalty ! was duly all prop-
erly awarded the race and cup ; but Mr. I
l'almer so far from kicking as did the Lean-
tier men against the decision of their own
umpire , very geol humoredly told the com-
mitee that he deservedly lost the race for
not studying tIle rules beCorehand.
The German emperor's act ' on In explicitly
rulng out any American yacht from the con-
test for his cup has aroused much comment.
COIIAm G TIE ChAMPIONS.
S Mr. George Gould writes as follows In reply
to the World correspondent's request for his
views regarding Defender anti Vigilant : "I
am too far away to express an opinIon on the
racing In AmerIca , havIng no information except -
cept what 1 gather from English papers.
From their counts 1 should JUdge the new
boat Is a great success. "
Leading British yachtsmen are Indisposed
to commf themselves to any opinion com-
parat'e or chances or ValkyrIe and Derender.
Lord Dunra\ea when questioned by your correspondent -
respondent at Cowes today said : "I am
simply unable to form n definite opinIon on
the merits of the two boats. All I can do Is
to make the best provision In my power for
every contingency . so that nothing shall be
left undone 10 Insure the success or Valkyre. : "
Beyond that he could not be Induced to speak
Captain Cranfleld's brother said : "I have no
doubt In light winds Valeyrle will lick De-
fender's head oft. In my last letter to my
brother Bill . on board Valkyrle I ad-
vlsel him on the first intimation or any alteration -
teraton In Valk'rlo to go over her side and
pull ashore. "
Tom Jay skipper or Aisa , which has been
racing all the season with Britannia ,
takes a wholly different view. lie said em-
phatcaly : "I Is no good. Money spent on

plAYING FOR LIGHT WI DS.
flatsey the sai maker who declined to male
1 suit or sails last year for Vigilant lest I
might enable her beat Drlannla ! , expressed a
guarded opInion. "In light winds Valkyrie
will beat both Vigilant and Defender , but In
a breeze 1 consider there will be little to
choose between them. 1 am now building at
my loft the largest mainsail ever made In
Europe to be sent , to New York for ValkyrIe
about the 17th In st. "
John Cranfeld , another brother or V'l-
kyrlo's skipper who was master of the new
crack GO-rater'lester , said : "Should VIgi-
lant not be greatly improved , since racing
here the new Valkyrie wi beat her by
twenty minutes on a fifty-mile course From
that I may be seen her chances wIth De-
render are good. Though Valkyrie Is at her
'
best In light water. 'I believe she will hold
her own In any weather " .
Captain Carter or the Britannia declared :
"I Is Impossible to arrIve at any conlluslon
as to the merits or the respectIve yachts on
the basis or Defender and Vigilant trials , be-
cause Vigilant has been altered since we saw
her here. but how much improved I cannot
tell. 1 think It quite possible that wo on this
side have never heard and don't know th ,
utmost that can bo done with Derender. I
consider that In light winds Valkyrie Is very
fast , but cannot say whether she Is faster
than Defender. Ido not blame Mr. QOlld for
declIning further races with Defender , for

the sultan his government thinks It Is actu- I.

Is so far removed from the Slat or European
politics its public opinions will have great
influence In the east. " Dr. J.onilner Informed
a representative or the Assqcated ! press that
Mr. Gladstone spoke these ' words with considerable -
sideable feeling , and the Boston dIvine remarked -
marked : "No one could fail to bo convinced
that lie stories of the Armenian outrages
have moved Mr. Gladstone deeply. "

BERLIN . Aug 10.-Durlng the past week
celebrations have been held throughout Oor-
many In commemorton or the battles fought
by the Germans against the Ireneh during
the early part u August , 18iO. Tile most
signIficant were probably those at the foot
of the national monument at the Nieder-
wal on Tuesday antI Welnesllny , all yes-
mEmbers or Bavarian inil-
tenlay 1,600 Ba\arlan mi-
Itary balls made a patriotic demonstraton :
there. For the big celebrations or August
9 on the Templ2hoC field 236 veteran organi-
zations will parade with banners before the
emperor am1 galleries will be erected to
aceonlnodate 18,000 spectators.
Unfavorable comment has been aroused by
lie tact that the government will not om-
daIly take part In the celebrations anti
Baron von Tiedemann , governor of llromberg
In a written refusal to join In the Sedan
parade explained that I would be against !
the dignity or royal .ofclals to march
through the streets beside plaIn civilians.
Complaints at the unsatisfactory manage-
ment or the new Baltic canal continue to
arrive from all German pbrts , and especially
from Dantzlc anti Stettin . Cases are cited
where the expense of passing the canal
trebly exceeded the benefits derh'c there-
from anti ship owners strongly appeal that
the , management be taken out of the
clutches of the bureaucracy and be governed
on a business basis. The government , however -
ever , persists In declaring that the traffic
Is Increasing daily , and especially In Danish
Swedish and Norwegian veseIs . and that the
fees charged are not exorbitant.
The program for laying the corner stone
or the big Kaiser Wihelm monument near
Berlin caste on August 18 has been determined -
mined upon The emperor anti empress will
leave the caste on foot and walk to the (
spot where the corner stone has been placed
Prince : llohienlohe . the chancellor , will thm
hantll'fiiTtiesty a document to ba placed In ,
the hollow Part - of the stone. The emperor '
will read this document aloud , a trowel and
mallet will be given him by Count Locher-
relll and the president of the hteicllstag .
Baron yon nuol-nerenberg , anti hIs majesty
will perform the ceremony ot laying the
stone. The Lutheran hymn will b played
by the bands assembled , the ofclatng
clergyman will pronounce a blessing and the
ceremony \1 he enl d.
KING ALBERT ESPECIALLY INVITED.
Grand preparations arc being malle for
the celebration or Sedan September 2.
Throughout Prussia the Protestant churches
will hold special services , anti King Albert
or Saxony will cohie to Berlin by special
invitation of the emperor and will be , the
recipient or unusual honors , as he Is the
last surviving army commander In active
service. About a score of the other German
princes and rulers will be present among
them being the prince regent of Bavaria
A grand Sepfenstrlcle will be executed In
front or the Berlin caste luring the evening
by all the bands or the guard corps. and
during the nIght preceding the celebration
both shores of the Rhine as far as the Dutch
frontier will b iuminated by bonfires arranged -
ranged by the veterans
The result or the Stern case has made a
mosl unpleasant Impression among Americans -
cans at all the German spas here. Similar
regulations to ( hose apparently infringed by
Mr. Stern prevail ever'wherl and the pun-
Ishment or the New York merchant SErves
to Itmnlate the German officials to fresh
annoances. More than one or them has
already been heard to remark In substance ,
"You Americans must conform to our cus-
toins " At Carlsbad a number or AmerIcan -
can public men are stopping amid they have
all especially been humiliated by the apparent -
parent failure of the United States embassy
to accomplsh , anything In the matter. They
add that I Is safe to say that the case will
have far-reaching consequences.
Nearly 35,000 patents have visited Carlsbad
since May the number exceeding the record
by 4,000. The greatest Increase In the nuin-
ben of visitors has been among the Americans -
cans , who arc by far the largest foreign
element. Lodging houses have been crowded
hut the crowds are now thInning. There I
much complaint among the visitors at the
exorbitant prIces charged at the hotels
and thp vexatious rules and a tax imposed
by local authorities . which Invite I constant
repetition or the Stern case.
STERN ADVISED TO APPEAL
Mr. Louis Stern h8 ben advised to ap-
peal to the clemency or the prince regent or
Bavaria , who It Is said , Is sure to change
the sentence or two weeks' Imprisonment
anti a One of GO marks Into a mere flue.
H appear that the Bavarian government itself - ,
self expected that Mr. Stern would be sen-
tenced for insulting the public official men-
toned In the caso.
Mr. 1h11) D. Armour or ChIcago completed
the Cdlsbad cure on Monday' and has departed -
parted Among the prominent AmerIcans
now at Carlsbad are Senator Vest or MIs-
souri and Mr. and Mrs. Robert McCormIck ,
