Turkey Prefers to Await Concerted Ac- tion of All the Pewers on the Bulgar jam Question, Loxpox, August 25.—Turkey has refused to as- Sent to Russta’s proposals for coercive action to- ward Bulgaria, either in the form ef occupation or by sending Artin Effendi with a Russian commis- stoner to Bulgaria to secure the election of a new sobranje and a mew prince. Turkey prefers to await concerted action by all the powers partics to the Berlin treaty to hastening a quarre) with the Bulgarians. Itisthe general pinion of the leading European diplomats that Germany gave her assent to the Russian pro) is for Otto- man commission and a Russfan general to seutle the Bulgarian question merely to place herself in position to be able to prevent Russia from taking any precipitate action which might again set the Balkans ablaze.

The only act of devotion to the Bul- garians that 4s left for that prince to accomy Says the Journal, is to quit Bulgaria forthwit was A STAY FOR SHARP. Judge Potter Gives the Grounds for His Action. [CONTINUED FROM FIKST EDITION.] New York, August 25. Judge Potter in his ‘decision Says: Having become impressed with the clear conviction that the trial court fell into error in the admiesion of some of the evidence offered by the prosecution and that for these errors the appellate court Must grant the defendant a new trial Ihave not, therefore, examined the evidenee any further than it had some relation to the objections and exceptions to the evidence received upon the trial and the charge ot the trial judge. I have been called upon to examine the charge, and Tam quite free tosay that the charge 1s remarkably clear, fair, and fauitless, except in presenting for consideration of the jury those portions of the evidence which I think were erroneously recelved upon the trial. ‘In my opinion important evidence Was received upon te trial in these respects. First. Testimony given by the defendant be- fore the railroad committee of the Senate authorized and directed to investigate the means and methods, and to obtain the consent of the local authorities to construct a Broadway surface Second. The fact of the absence of persons charged tn the indictment with the defendant with the crime of bribery, and sojourns in Canada ‘as the excuse of their non-production as witnesses against the defendant by the prosecution; and, ‘Third. The opinion, or supposition, of ‘the wit ness Miller as to the motive or’ purpose of DeLacy when he handed Miller the $5,000. ‘The | testimony of the defendant Was taken before the senate committee under resolution passed by the senate. (rhe judge then quotes tue resolutions) and continues: “The testimony given by the defendant in answer to questions put to him by the Senate committee and Its counsel were received in evidence over ob- jection and exception upon the trial of the indictment of the defendant for bribery of one of the board of aldermen : in Voting for the consent of the aldermen to consttuct the Broadway Rallroad. I am yery decidedly of the opinion the court erred in adinission of such Uestumony. ‘The rule at common law, and before the adep- tion of the Constitution of the United States, or that of any of the States, was that a witness shoula not be obliged to give evidence which could be used agatnst hinself th any eriming! trial, ‘That principle is embodied tn tue Constitution of the Unit-d States and in Usat of this State in these words: “No person shail be compelled in any criminal case to bea wi.ness against mim- poll” ——— A Bank Closes its Doors.
