The Porte, added Dr. Tatarscheff, entered into the conference only to gain time to finish the extermination of what it regards as the dangerous elements in Macedonia. Referring to the details of the proposed | arrangement, Dr. Tatarscheff said there was no guarantee, éven if the committee was appointed, that it would ever be more than ornamental. The present village commissions in Macedonia have Bulgarian ! members, buf they are always favorable to the Turks. The president of the Mace- donian organizations concluded by declar- ing that the insurgents would be satisfied with nothing short of intervention by the powers. Special significance attaches to the Macedonian meeting at Rustchuk because | the resolutions adopted are the first open expression of such an emphatic character in favor of war coming from any popular meeting in Bulgaria.
