BELGRADE. June 14. Dispatches

government forces at Tatar BazardJIk.
Stamboulisky Still Alive.
SOFIA, June 14. Ex premier Stam
boulisky la reported to have been
halted near the Ttatar BazardJIk and
Is said to be making a stand against
the government troops with several
hundred peasant guards. Several
casualties have already occurred.

TRIESTE, June 14. (By U. P).
Stamboulisky and his army of peas
ants Intend to oust King Boris and
declare Bulgaria a republic as soon
as they capture Sofia, the capital.
The peanants announced their inten
tion of overthrowing the king and
making Stamboulisky president Boris
Is said to have supported tbe revolt
whereby Stamboulisky and his peas
ant cabinet were ejected from office.
Varna la Stormed.
ATHENS, June 14. (By U. P). The
Bulgarian peasant forces loyal to ex
premier Stamboulisky stormed and oc
cupied Varna, according to Sofia re
ports. The peasants, waging a civil
war, have the upper hand everywhere
throughout Northwest Bulgaria, the
dispatches Indicated.
Bio Revolution Feared.
LONDON, June 13. (By A. P).
Great anxiety is entertained in allied
quarters over the course of events in
Bulgaria. Fear is expressed that the
peasantry, which forms the backbone
of the country, will rally to the call
of their deposed leaders, some of
whom are still at large and attempt
a counter revolution.
It is pointed out that every one of
the three-million farmers of Bulgaria
possesses a rifle and that if these
were roused into action they would
constitute a most formidable army
against the former officers of the re
serve .corps and the 10.000 volunteer
soldiers who are not only Bulgaria a
sole armed and disciplined force, but
the dominant factors.
One of the present government's
chief points of strength, it is believed,
is the fact that all the country's farm
ers are busy gathering their crops.
They are regarded as being too phil
osophical and provident to be at
tracted by a call to arms.
Must Not Harm Stamboulisky.
Allied diplomats who have been In
Bulgaria and understand the psych
ology of the peasants say that much
will depend upon the new govern
ment's treatment of Stamboulisky and
his associates, all of whom sprang
from the soil. If the expremler Is
killed. It Is feared the agrarian popu
lation, which regards him aa a sort of
Abraham Lincoln, will revolt and
make a determined attempt to punish
his opponents.
According to the latest dispatches
Stamboulisky now is hiding In a wood
near Tapar BazardJIk, some distance
from Sofia, whither be fled after a
sensational dash by automobile from
his native village of Slavovltie. His
chauffeur waa mortally wounded dur
ing the fight.
The correspondents assert that It
will be impossible for him to escape.
There Is a possibility that If he resists
capture he will be killed, although the
government has given orders that he
be taken alive even at the risk of
some sacrifice.
