A meeting of the Cabiret will be held shortly for the purpose of discussing the fiscal questions now before the country, but it ig generally believed that the atti- tude of the people with respect to the findings of the War Commission, as shown by the proposal to send a monster petition to King Edward for Lord Lans- downe's dismissal and by the publication of cartoons illustrating his incompetency, will be constdered and that something will be determined upon as necessary to stem the tide of indignation now flowing against the Ministry @ irlrimimileiriefileieiieinidieiniet @ | LAKE STEAMSHIP RS AR sl HAS DISKPPEARED Foreigners in Constantinople Expect Early Declara- tion of War.

At Prespan, in_ the proceeding between insurgent bands and an army of 20,000 Turks. The latter are reported to have lost more than 200 killed { or wounded. An engagement lasting all day has been fought at Pritylisti, Mon- astir vilayet, in which the Turkish loss was given as forty and the insurgent loss as five. A band led by Yanko Stoyanoff has destroyed the village of Gorinoka- vieve, Carlpengrad, a notorious haunt of Turkish brigands. The newspaper Poshta asserts that all the villages in the district of Leren are burning. According to revolutionary es- | timates Turkey has now in Macedonia an army of 175,000 men, with 3700 horses and 440 guns. In an engagement at Simen, Losengrad, the villagers joined the Turks, who were defeated. The Insurgents afterward burned the village as a punishment to the inhabitants for aiding the Turks. The revolutionaries destroyed the light- | house near Limanpulevo. The Sofia Vedo- mosti states that Roumania is strength- ening her military position on the Bul- garian frontier. BATTLES IN MONASTIR. Imperial Troops in Numerous Clashes With Revolutionaries. CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 7.—Offclal dispatches from Monastir, dated August 21, and September 1, 2 and 3, give detalls of numerous skirmishes of the imperial troops in that district. A body of Bul- garians intrenched in the hills between Lake Rodenik and the village of Yelendje was attacked by the troops and lost thir- ty-five men killed. The remainder of the band, seeking to escape pursuit, threw themselves into the lake and were drowned. At the village of Resna twenty-two In- surgents were killed and around Florina forty others perished. A band of 200 revolutionaries was dis- persed at Boussovo, five being killed. In the district of Vishani two strong bands were annihilated. The women and chil- dren who were found In the forest were fed and sent back to their villages.

WAR THE ONLY SOLUTION. | Outbreak May Occur Before the End of September. CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 7.—War be- tween Turkey and Bulgaria s now re- garded here as inevitable. It is even be- | lieved that the outbreak of hostilities will occur before the end of September, when | the reinforcements from Asia will have been concentrated in Macedonla and in the vilayet of Adrianople.

The terrible accounts received regard- ing the conduct of the Turkish troops have not surprised European circles here, but many who have hitherto been opti~ mistic in their views now accept the pre= vailing belief that Turkey is on the verge | of a catastrophe. | A consular dispatch from Salonica says that, according to authentic information, the insurrection in the district of Mon- astir has been practically stamped out.
