BAKING
•Practically Decided That a Conference
Of the Interested Countries Will Be
Called to Discuss the Balkan Situa
tion and It la Not Improbable That
Action Will Be TakM Support of
Turkey's Protest.
Constantinople, Oct 7.—The council
If ,ministers held a long session to
consider the action of Bulgaria In de
daring her independence of Turkey.
It was decided that it was impossible
to accept any proceedings that vio
lated existing treaties and that Tur
key should address a circular note to
the powers pointing out the necessity
Of taking measures to enforce respect
to* the treaty of Berlin.
Replying to the telegram salt to the
Turkish government by Prince Fer
dinand, In which he said that in de
claring the Independence of Bulgaria
he had been compelled to respect the
voice of the nation and. expressed the
hope that the friendly relations be
tween the two countries would con
tinue, Turkey says she has invited the
powers to confer on the situation and
as her rights are guarantee}! by the
powers she will look to them for their
defense. The Yenai Gazette, the or
gan of the grand vizier, says:
"We are ready to defend our rights
with all our strength. As the action
of Bulgaria is not only directed against
us, but against all the powers, we
should Ask the powers to defend their
Interests and protect the provisions of
the treaty of Berlin."
FRANCE TO BACK TURKEY
Favors Upholding Provisions of the
Treaty of Berlin.
••V.. Paris, Oct. 7.—The hope that hos
iMfiies may be avoided in the Balkans
is growing in Paris. The latest ad
vices received here from Constantino
ple seem to indicate that the porte.
for the moment, is not disposed to go
further than a formal protest against
Bulgaria's proclamation of independ
ence.
Foreign Minisle# Pichon Is continu
ing his conferences here. He talked
with M. Iswolsky, the Russian minis
ter of foreign affairs, and M. Standoff,
the diplomatic agent of Bulgaria, and
later he conferred with the British,
Turkish, Italian and Spanish ambas
sadors.
France believes in the necessity of
a new conference of the signatories of
the Berlin treaty for the purpose of
clearing up the situation and safe
guarding the interests of all the pow
ers concerned. If the principle of a
new congress is approved France, in
accord with Great Britain and Russia,
will abstain from recognizing the in
dependence of Bulgaria and the seiz
ure of Bosnia and Herzegovina by
Austria-Hungary. This virtually will
amount to backing up Turkey's pro-

In official circles it 1B pointed out
that one of the strongest precedents
against a single power disregarding
the stipulations of a general treaty
came from Austria-Hungary herself.
'When the treaty of Paris of 1850 was
Revised in London in 1871 Austria
iTungary was loud in her protestation
against Russia's refusal longer to

MERELY A"PAPER CHANGE
No Material Interests Involve* by Bul
garia's Act.
Berlin, Oct. 7.— The question
whether there is to be peace or war
in the Balkans has not yet been de
cided in Constantinople, according to
official dispatches received at the for
eign office. The ambassadors of the
powe^p at Constantinople find the sit
uation a difficult one, because the con
trol of affairs does not rest altogether
with the cabinet of the Young Turks,
but partially with the powerful com
mittee of Young Turks outside the
caHnet.
Official opinion In Berlin leads to
the belief that there will be no war.
Inasmuch as the change in the rela
tions between Bulgaria and Turkey is
merely a paper change. No material
interests will be involved provided
Bulgaria gives up ter control of the
Oriental railroad in Eastern Roumelia,
as- now seems probable.
Germany continues Her attitude of
reserve. She would not oppose a con
ference of the powers for the revision
of the treaty of Berlin If such a con
ference were desired by the other
powers.
Has No Desire for War.
London. Oct. 7.—The Bulgarian
charge d'affaires, M. de Breff, officially
informed Great Britain of Bulgaria's
declaration of independence. The Bul
garian government instructed its rep
resentative to say also that in pro
claiming her independence Bulgaria
had no desire for war and that h«
aims were eminently peaceful.
ROBBERS SECURE $2,300.
Bank at Danube, Minn., Looted by
Burglar*.
Olivia, Minn., Oct. 7.—The State,
bank of Danube was burglarized and
$2,300 in cash was taken. The safe
door was blown through the plate
glass into the street. Rev. Reed was
coming from the depot, after meet
ing the morning passenger train. He
passed the bank and saw a light and
men working. Thinking it was- his
friends he whistled and was answered
by a pistol shot, which woke the town.
No one dared to make a flght. The
robbers escaped in the darkness.
General Fitzgerald Dead.
New York, Oct. 7.—General Louis
Fitzgerald, for more than half a cen
tury a promfhent figure in New York,
is dead. He was seventy-one years
old. Up to the time of his retirement
from business General Fitzgerald was
active in important, railroad reorgan
ization and Bnaneiai operations.

The Hague, Oct. 7.—The Nether
lands government has been notified by
the governor of Curacao that the sec
ond Netherlands note had been pre
sented to Jose de Jesus Paul, the Ven
ezuelan minister of foreign affairs.
The governor adds that he lias re
ceived official advices from Caracas,
dated Sept. 26, to the effect that Pres
ident Castro was seriously ill aud that
the administration of Venezuela prob
ably would have to be handed over
again to Vicente Gomes, vice presi
dent of the republic.
The council of ministers has the
new situation thus created under con
sideration. It seams that The Nether
lands recently approached the Euro
pean powers and suggested combined
action against Venezuela, but although
they all consented to give their moral
support not one of them was willing
actively to participate In a blockade.
The Netherlands hesitated to under
take single handed a blockade of the
Venezuelan coast in view of the fact
that a similar action by Great Britain,
Germany and Italy in combination
practically failed of result. Official
opinion seems inclined rather to eco
nomic reprisals, such as annulling the
prohibition to export arms from Cura
cao into Venezuela. This would allow
the Venezuelan revolutionaries to ob
tain weapons. If The Netherlands
shut its eyes to the activities of the
revolutionists in Curacao this island
would become the center of President
MANY DELEGATES PRESENT
International Tax Association Meets
at Toronto.
Toronto, Ont., Oct. 7.—The Interna
tional Tax association met here for
the first time under its new name.
Last year it was known as the nation
al association. On the invitation of
Premier Sir James Whitney the meet
ings were held in the parliament build
ings.
The objects of the association as
outlined in the constitution to be
adopted at this meeting are:
To formulate and announce through
the deliberately expressed opinion of
an International conference the best
informed economic thought and ripest
administrative experience available
for the correct, guidance of public opin
ion and legislative and administrative
action on all questions pertaining to
stato and local taxation and to inter
state and international comity in tax
ation.
Delegates from thirty-three states
of the United States and five Canadian
provinces and presidents of several
universities are present.
0ISCUSSED BY~DlPL0MATS
Russian Proposal to Convoke a Con
gress of the Powers.
St. Petersburg, Oct. 7.—The inten
tion of Russia to convoke a congress
of the powers to discuss revision of
the treaty of Berlin was the subject of
lengthy conferences between Acting
Minister of Foreign Affairs Tchary
koff and the diplomatic representa
tives of the powers interested. These
Included the Turkish, British and Aus
tro-Hungarian ambassadors. No state
ment. of the attitude of the Russian
government is obtainable and the dip
lomats are unwilling to commit them
selves regarding the possibility of a
Turco-Bulgarian war as a result of
Bulgaria's declaration of independ
ence but the general impression is
that Turkey will not regard Bulgaria's
action, which was taken in the face
of emphatic Russian protests, as a
cause for war. When the Russian
foreign office was sounded in the mat
ter of the Bulgarian proclamation it
addressed strongly worded representa
tions to Prince Ferdinand against the
step, declaring It to be the duty of
civilized powers to refrain from em
barrassing the Young Turks in their
efforts for reform. The original Bul
garian plan was to allow Austria Hun
gary to take the initiative in annexing
Bosnia and Herzegovina and to pro
claim her independence while the at
tention of tho powers was occupied
with this matter. It was realized,
however, that a spontaneous declara
tion and appeal would have a much
greater effect on the popular imagina
tion and for this same reason Tirnovo,
the ancient capital of the kingdom of
Bulgaria, was chosen as the scene of
