THE DIFFICULTY IN THE BALKANS.

Sophia, Sept. 13.—The Regency? 1wm» Is-
sued a decree convoking the National As-
sembly to-day.. The following dispatch
has been sent to Prince Alexander^ signed
by -200 Deputies:	c- j

"We deeply grieve over your absence
from your beloved country. We earnestly
desire to see among us our hero Prince, the
defender of our national liberty and in-
dependence."

Alexander's friends are working hard
for his re-election with a good show :of
success.

The officers of all the garrisons have-
telegraphed similar messages to the
Prince. Metropolitan Clement and M.
Zankoff are detained under guard in their
houses, but are permitted to see friends,

London, Sept. 13.—Alexander's feteday
was the occasion of great rejoiciogf*at
Philippopolis. Troops paraded the streets
and fire-worKs were displayed in the even-
ing. At Varna prayers for Alexander were
offered in the churches. At Sofia six Rou-
melian regiments were presented with new
colors with Alexander's monogram in the
corners.

Advices from Berlin say that Prince
William's mission is to reqnest the Crai to
abstain for the present from sendinga mil-
itary envoy to Bulgaria because of Aus-
tria's repugnance to such a course.

The North German Gazette says tftat
even if Prince Alexander is re-elected ii. is
not likely that the signers of the Berlin
treaty will consent to his return. .' '

Nothing is known in official circles in re-
gard to Prince Alexander's visit to En-
gland. He will remain at Jugenheim for
the present, his health being shattered.

The Post's Berlin correspondent says
Austria has formally notified Germany
that she will oppose any attempt of Russia
to encroach upon the liberties of the Bal-
kans. Herr von Tisza, the Hungarian
premier, has informed Count Kalnoky,
Austrian Prime Minister, that he was una-
ble to consent to a Russian occupation of
Bulgaria.

The Cologne Gazette says that twenty
Russian officers are going to Bulgaria to
occupy the highest military posts.

AN EARTHQUAKE IN OHIO^

People Iilvinff Near Akron Badly Fright-
ened—A meteor Adds to the Excite-
ment.

Akron, O., Sept. 13.—The people living
in the coal mining regions, embracing foul
towns and quite a large range of country,
were awakened at four o'clock yesterday
morning by low, rumbling sounds, accom-
panied by shocks of earthquake so dis-
tinct that houses were terribly shaken
and articles on mantles were thrown to
the floor. Several years ago the earth
settled several feet without apparent cause
in the region of this morning's shock and
people are now badly frightened, fearing
they will be swallowed up. To make mat-
ters more ^unpleasant a Very large meteor
Saturday morning passed over the shaken-
up portion of country, traveling close to the
earth and throwing off heated particles
every few feet. The meteor illuminated
the country for a great distance and is
supposed to have struck the earth near
the eastern part of the' city, as the Bhock
in that locality was distinctly felt imme-
diately after the great fire-ball passed.

Marshall, 111., Sept. 13.—George Pow-
ers, a telegraph operator and agent of the

writing. The murderer robbed his victim
of a watch and about fifteen dollars in
money. No clew to the whereabouts of
the assassin. Bloodhounds have been

ing here yesterday appointed a committee
of five to investigate the Anarchist trial at"

mittee. This is:. believed to be the first ac-
tion of the sort,taken by a labor organi-
zation.

Rumors of a Great Disaster.

Muskegon, Mich., Sept. 13.—A rumor
has reached here that the barge Gracie
Barker, with about 100 passengers on
board, had sunk somewhere south of

ing the safety of the barge. The report is
very vague and nothing of a definite char-
acter can b? learned.

vert fatally shot her husband, Jerome B.
