' THE MACON TELEGEAPH: FEIDAY MOENING, AUGUST 13. 1897. THEY ARE NOW IN TROUBLE AUSTRIA AND BULGARIA NOT ON GOOD TERM*. Crow Out of (ho Refusal or the Bulga rian Premier to DieaTOw ao Inter- xletT in Which an Insulting Re mark was Made Against Austria 8o(ia. Bulgaria, Aug. 12.—'The Austrian charge d'affaires, Baron Call Vou Kitlm- bach-Roaenberg, has left Bulgaria on an indefinite leave of absence. His depart ure Is owing to the refusal of ithe Bul garian premier, M. Storloff, to comply v-'lth the demand of the Austrian govern ment to formerly disavow an interview with the premier, published in Lokalan- zslger of Berlin last month, in which, re ferring to the Insistence of Austria, upon which the punishment of Capt. Berichoff, the former aide de camp of Prince Ferdi nand of Bulgaria, recently conTicted of the murder of his. paramour, Anna 8. Zilmmo, an Austrian subject, he drew an insulting parallel between the officials in Austria and Bulgaria. London. Aug. 12.—The Austro-Bulgar- inn trouble is a suspension, rather tban a rupture, of diplomatic relations, Baron Call Von Kulmbach-Rosenberg, the charge d'affaires at Soda, having en trusted the business of the legation to the secretary during hU absence. It Is not likely that Austria will do anything furiher. Matters are likely to remain as they are for the present, and as Bul garia survived a breach with Russia, she will also survive d breach with Aus- *■ tria. It Is suggested that her masterful pre mier, M. Stoloff, wishes to embarrass Prince Ferdinand, who must choose be- tweu dismissing his premier and offend: ing Austria. It is also alleged that the sultan has urged Prince Ferdinand to resist with a view to creating a diversion of European pressure now exercised upon Turkey with reference to the peace treaty. Mr. Stoloff’s antipathy towards Austria is notorious, while the relations • between the Austrian count and Prince Ferdinand had already ceased entirely, the Emperor Frances Joseph having ob stinately refused to receive the prince. Russia, according to a dispatch from St. Petersburg, declines to give.the slightest a&ilstance to a declaration of Bulgarian Independence and the dispatches say all the powcw desiring peace would equally resist such a step.

Some years ago the rulers of the lit tle republic of Andorra decided that the country should possess a cannon. Krupp, therefore, was ordered to man ufacture one of the most modern type. The great gun arrived at Its desti nation In due time, and was placed on the highest point In the "country," so that the citizens could see that the valley was well protected. A day waa appointed to try the cannon, which was able to send a ball eighteen kilo meters T odlrect the shot, however, toward the surrounding mountains wunld be the same as firing at France or Italy, as the ball would necessarily fall on the territory of one of these countries. A wsr might be the re sult. It was then decided to ehoot the ball In the air. hut some one suggested this would endanger the lives of too many people in Its descent, and possibly bore a great hole In the republic of Andor ra. Good council prevailed and the two artillerymen were commanded to un load the gun. The shot has not yet been fired, according to the latest ac counts. and the good republicans are uncertain what to do with their ex pensive gun. So Jfxeose. From the Washington Star.

Experiences of Famous Orators When They Begin to Speak In Public. From the Pittsburg Dispatch. Perhaps It would be invidious to call Dr. Chauneey M. Depew the foremost orator of the day in America, but he is certainly ns well known for his ad dresses. post-prandlal and of every oth er sort, as any man who ever lived on this side of the Atlantic. He began to think and talk on his feet at a very early age, and many of his most felic itous speeceks are extemporaneous, but by far the mort Important ones are carefully wrought out In advance, and some of them are written and memor ized. though not laboriously, perhaps, for the gifted doctor has his mental talents always fn condition. His very first public speech of any consequence to him was delivered when he was a sophomore. It was called an "oration” and was delivered for a prize, which he won. and was learned by heart. His commencement oration was also mem orized. His first impromptu public ad dress was delivered In 1866, when Fre mont was running for the presidency. Detiew was out of college by that time, but he was stll la youngster. He be lieved In Fremont, and In this he was at odds with his father, with whom he had held many political arguments. A Republican mass meeting was to be held at which .the chief speaker was to be George William Curtle. Deqew decided -to attend tho meeting. When lie arrived the audience, which « * a large one, had already been wait ing for some time for the arrival of Mr. Curtis. After a further wait these fn charge of the meeting asked Depew to speak. He protested, saying that he was young. Inexperienced and unpre pared. but they succeeded In persuad ing him. When he went on the plat form he was at first greatly embarrass ed. "But.” he said to the writer one day, "I made un my mind to talk to the crowd exactly as I had been talking to my father, and I have no doubt I did so. though I can not remember what I said. When I had finished I looked at my watch, supposing I hid been speak ing some ten or fifteen minutes, but In reality I had talked about an hour and a half." The flrst address to which Speaker Reed ever gave serious attention was delivered while he was a student at Bowdoln College. He had fallen be hind In his classes, but was very de sirous of entering a competitive con test for class honors. Although the prizes were delivered solely because of good oratory, no one could compete whose class tanding was low, and In order to enter the lists he had to do an enrmous amount of "back work." He once told the writer that he worked harder during th* time he was pre paring to enter the contest than he ever did before or ever has elnce. The subject of his address was "Death,” and he won the prise. Mr. Reed Is still frequently affected grievously by stage fright. Perhaps his worst suffering of that sort was on an occasion when he had to deliver an Important political spech In Boston. He had prepared elaborately, but he audience teemed so cold that before he had been on tils feet a full minute he determined to take another tack. .This meant to prepare his speech and de liver It at the same time. For the first five minutes he sparred for time. He bas since said to his friends that his voice seemed husky and far away to him. But after a bit he struck the right key, his tones became clear and ringing, and the resultant address was one of the most brlllant he ever de livered. Col. Robert G. Ingersoll nevr deliv ered a college oration, for he had not the advantage of th* higher training. His fir ft speech was made as a coun try lawyer In a little Illinois town, where he had ben studying for the bar with his brother. His flrst fame as a political speaker was won at Peoria, and on that occasion he, like the others mentioned here, was In a highly ner vous state. A lilt at Tennessee. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The Washington correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat says the war, department Is about to publish a con fidential report made by Secretary of War Joseph Holt to President Buch anan on the conspiracy of certain Southerners to seize the City of Wash ington before the, inauguration of Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Holt explatna the stepa taken to defeat the conspiracy. The revelations constitute an important ad dition to American history. They put the Buchanan administration In a somewhat better light than was ac corded 'it by the North at that time. Secretary Holt's communication was made on the 18th of February, 1861, Uvol weeks before the Inauguration of Mr. Lincoln. "At what time.” he wrote, “ the armed occupation of Washington City became a part of the revolutionary programme is not certainly known. More than six weeks ago the Impres sion had already extensively obtained that a conspiracy for the accomplish ment of this guilty purpose was In process of formation, if not fully ma tured. The earnest endeavors made by men known to be devoted to the rev olution to hurry Virginia and Mary land out of the Union were regarded as preparatory steps for the subjuga tion of Washington. "This plan was In entire harmony with the aim and spirit of those seek ing the subversion of the government, since no more fatal blow to Its ex istence could be struck than the per manent and hostile possession of the seat of power. It was In harmony, too, with the avowed designs of the revolu tionists, which looked to a confederacy of all the slave states, and necessarily to the conquest of the capital within their limits. It seemed not very indis tinctly prefigured In' a proclamation made upon the floor of the senate, without qualification, it not exultantly, that the Union was already dissolved —a proclamation which, however In tended, was calculated to Invite on the part of men of desperate fortunes or of revolutionary states a raid upon the capital. In view of tho violence and turbulent disorders already ex hibited In tho South, the public mind could not. reject such a scheme at at all improbable. That a belief In Its existence was entertained by multi tudes there can be no doubt, and this belief I fully shared. My conviction rested not only on tho facts already alluded to, but upon Information, some of which was of a most conclusive character, that reached the govern ment from many parta of the country, not merely expressing the prevalence of the opinion that such an organiza tion had been formed, but also often furnishing the plausible grounds upon which such an opinion was based. Superadded to these proofs wero the oft-repeated declarations of men In high political positions here, and /who wore known to have intimate affiliations with the revolution. If, indeed, they did not hold its reins In their hands, to tho ef fect that Mr. Lincoln would not or should not be inaugurated In Washington. Such declarations from such men could not Ire treated as empty bluster. They were the solemn utterances of thode who well knew the import of their word*, and who, in tho exultation of the temporary victories gained oTer their country's flag In tho South, felt assured that events would soon give them the power to verify their predictions. Simultaneously with these prophetic warnings a South ern journal of targe circulation and in fluence, and which is published near the City of Washington, advocated Its mat ure as tz possible political necessity. The nature and power of the testimony thus accumulated may he estimated by tha effecta produced upon the poptflar mind. "Apprehension for the safety of the capital were communicated from poluts near and remote by men unquestionably reliable and loyal. The resident poputa- tlon became disquieted and the repose of many families In the city was known to be disturbed by painful anxieties. Mem bers of congress, too—men of calm and comprehensive views and of undoubted fidelity to their country—frankly ex pressed their solicitude to the preildcnt and to tills department, anti formally In sisted that the defense* of the capital should be strengthened. With sttcu warnings It could not be forgotten that bad the )lte secretary of war heeded the anonymous Tetter, which he received, the tragedy at Harper's Ferry would hare been avoided; nor could I fall to remem ber that had the early admonitions which reached here In regard to the de sign* of lawless men upon the forts of Charletton harbor been acted on by sending forward re-enforcements berorc the revolution began the disastrous polit ical complications tbst ensued might not have occurred. "Impressed by these circumstances, I earnestly besought yon to allow the con centration at thl* city of a sufficient military force to preserve the public peace from all dangers that seemed to threaten It. An open manifestation on the part of the administration of a de termination as well as the ability to maintain the laws would, I was con vinced, prove the sorest, as also the mott pacific, means of baffling and dis solving any conspiracy that might have been organized. It was believed,, too, tost the highest and moat solemn re sponsibility resting upon a president withdrawing from the government was ■to secure to bis successor a peaceful in auguraflon. "So deeply. In my judgment, did this duty concern the whole country and the fair fame of our Instituttona that to guarantee Its faithful discharge I was persuaded no preparation could be too determined or too complete. Tho presence of the troop* Is the result of the conclusion arrived at by yourself and cabinet on the proposition sub mitted to you by this department. Al ready this display of life and loyalty on the part of the administration has produced the happiest effects. Publlo confidence has been restored and tho feverish apprehensions, which It was so mortifying to contemplate, have been banished. Whatever may have been the machinations of deluded lawless men. the execution* of their purpose* have been suspended, if not altogether abandoned, In view of preparations which announce more Impressively than words that this administration Is alike able and resolved to transfer in peace and to tha president sleet the authority that under the constitution belongs to him. "To those. If such there be, who de sire the destruction of tho republic the presence of these troops Is necessarily offensive, but those who sincerely love our institutions can not fall to rejoice that by this timely precaution they have possibly escaped the deep dis honor which they must have suffered had the capital, like the forts and arse nals of the South, fallen Into the hand* of revolutionists, who have found this great government weak only because, In the ezhaustless beneficence of Its spirit It has refused to strike, even In Ita own defense, lest it'should be the aggressor.” The secret order* Issued by the war department, not heretofore published, preceding Secretary Holt’s letter to President Buchanan, are interesting. They show how serious the sltustion -was regarded and bow-thorough were. the plan* to defeat the conspiracy to seize the capital: ’ Headquarter* of the Army, Wash ington.

At th# date of the national census of 1880 there were 26T.730 person* found In states or territories other than Mass*, cliusetts who had emigrated frum Mas sachusetts: In 1850 the number had In creased to *74.740. On the other ha.iJ. in 18S0 there were 261.021 residents of Massachusetts who had come in from other states or territories, and this num ber had Increased In 1890 to 315,950. The gains of the state as a whole from other states, as shown In the census of 1890. were much greater than the louse of the state to other stales. Confining our analysis to the figures for 1890 only, and taking some of the states which show the largest number of persons moving to any fro. w e find that persons residing In California who had come from Massachusetts number ed 19.788. while natives of California who formed part of the poulatlon of Massachusetts, numbered only t.OJS. On the other hand, persons who had emi grated from Massachusetts Into Con necticut numbered 25,810, while the ac cessions to the population of Massachu setts from Connecticut numbered 85.- 403. the figures practically balancing each other. In Illlnota there were 18. 898 persons who had come from Massa chusetts. while natives of Illinois who had come into Massachusetts numbered but 9.019. Other western states, as a rule, show much larger accessions of population from Massachusetts than Massachusetts had gained from themi although tho figures do not In any cum rise ao high a* in California and Illi nois. Comparisons based on the movements to and from the New England.states other than Connecticut show In Jtalne 10.385 person* who had come from Mas sachusetts. while at the date named there were 86.988 persona In Maseachu- aett* who came from Maine. Natives of Massachusetts found in New Hamp shire numbered 21,311. white natives o' New aHmPihlre found In Massachu setts numbered 67,745. Vermont had gained only 7,244 persons from Massa chusetts. while wo had received from Vermont 34.29.1. In Rhode Island na tives of Massachusetts found in that state numbered 25,574, while natives of Rhode Island found here numbered 21.- 044. Both Rhode Island and Connect icut have drawn more population than they have returned. French Fashions Doomed. Numerous contingents of young wo men clad In garb of n decldely mascu line cut apepar In the streets, says * Paris correspondent. They are not al bicyclists, and many of them are utter ly Incapable of using the small machine which li fast supplanting ordinary ve hicles. They affect the costume of the lady cyclist- however, because It Is cool and cheap. A straw hat or a whit* bit lycoek, a blouse or Jacket, brief pnta- loons, black stockings or socks, and brown boot* do not cal for as much cx- penditure'ns a ful lcostume, which has to be of good material anti must be fashionably made. Moreover, cycling dress may be worn without the 1m prisoning corset; It la freer, and enables the w arer to breathe well and to en joy air. Hence It la becoming popular, nnd It 1* no wonder tbnt an alarm la raised by persons who complain that the Parlslennes are developing mascu line tendencies In habits as wel las In dress. The croakers cry that It will soor be all up with French fashions, that ladles of other nations will no longer lok to Paris as the headquarter* of taste In the matter of femlnlnc-op- parcl now that the era of mannish at tire Is setting in, and that pantaloons are beglnnlg to supplant petticoats. Time was when the divided skirt wa* regarded her as a curiosity nnd monstrosity; but now tho times have changed, and chaos may be said to have aet In, since nearly half the young women met Jn the streets of nPrls now look like boys home tor the holidays. No one knows .what the next step will be. but it la evident that a strong movement Is being .made by the women for the purpose of emancipating them selves from the bondage of the petti coat, which the advanced females who have been long agitating for masculine nttlre are unwearied In denouncing na dangerous and useless.
