In vouuivtion wlih tbe three to tied uprising in the Balkans, diplomats here have received the full text of n note recently sent by Turkey to the ioweni signatory to the treaty of Berlin. The note charges Bulgaria with fomenting all the trouble in Macedonia, saying: The principality of Bulgaria doe not change its attitude of active, though concealed hostility, in spite of the efforts of the ports in carrying through the stipulated reforms. Trustworthy investigations reveal the following facts: 1 In order to be able to aim all the villagers, guns as well as ammunition are constantly transported to eight Bulgarian frontier places. 2 The depots of three frontier divisions are provisioned and armed as for an imminent war. 3 The powder factories and artillery workshops In Sofia work double time and with double forces. 4 All the military roads leading into 1 urkey along the entire Bulgarian frontier are Improved and widened and made passable, especially for artillery. The frontier telegraph system la being established, especially along tbe principal roads. 5 In nil the districts preparations on a large scale are made for amassing supplies, a vast commissariat, and the lurnlshing of thousands of wagons by (he population as the first appeal. C The commlssiarlat for all the infantry regiments Is meing established in all the garrisons, and the artillery provisioned and manned as ona war looting. 8 Special regulations for requisitions for the sustenance of the army have been issued. 0 An extraordinary credit waa appropriated for the eventuality of war. 10 All the mills and bakeries were Investigated in order to ascertain their highest rapacity and their proprietors were instructed to be ready for great army orders; besides, a military bakery waa established. 11 Numerous fortifications were erected at all strategic points and along the military roads. 12 All the bridges, eaiiecially on the Alarltza river, were rebuilt, repaired and armed. 13 The arms of artillery and cavalry and the bayonets of infantry were sharpened as for Immediate action.

He gives as his rates opinion that the preferential which, have resulted, from the interstate commerce law prohibiting trusts are a menace to Justice and fair play, and must be done away with. He says: 1 have slaty been an advocate of legalized pooling, because I believe it will go a long way toward Insuring a maintenance of tariffs, and thereby prevent favoritism and inside rates to large shippers and great cities.
