London, Aug. 10. A dispatch from
Vienna reports that tho insurgents
succeeded In destroying with dyna
mite tbo custom house at ZIobvncbe,
on tho Albanian frontier.
Albania and Bulgaria Affected.
Constantinople, Aug. 10. The in
surrectionary movement in Macedo
nia appears to be widening. Hands
are reported to be active In tho San
Jak of Uskub and the district of
Krusbevo. where the government
telcgrupn offices have been dynamit
ed, wbilo in the district of Dibrn four
Bulgarian villages have risen, pro
voking a corresponding rising In the
neighboring Albanian villages.
The diplomats here are uneasy,
fearing that tho trouble may spread
outside the bounds of Macedonia.
So long as the trouble Is confined to
tho usual skirmishing bands and oc
casional dynamite outrages It is not
believed that there will be any seri
ous cause for alarm. Up to tho pres
ent the action of tbo embassies has
been confined to advising tbo Porte
to prevent tho Mussulman population
Irom engaging in fights with tho In
surgents. Twelve battalions of Redolfs in the
Sanjak of Serflje and the Vlllayet of
Monnstlr have been called out.
Deserting From Turkish Army.
Vienna, Aug. 10. The government
Is still without definite news regard
ing Macedonia, but tbo opinion In
well-inlormed circles Is that grave
events are liable to develop hofoiti
the snows come and drive the Insurg
ents from tho mountains.
The insurgents appear to he well
armed and able to prosocute a vigor
ous campaign until winter, and to re
sume the fighting in the spring. On
the other hand, tho Turkish troops
have been five mouths In tho field,
and are further disheartened by not
having received any pay. They are
reported to be deserting in Increasing
numbers.
it Is thought here that the position
of the Macedonians has been great
ly strengthened by the disturbances
In Armenia, and It Is considered that
the latter movement is more likely
to attract sympathy from Europe and
lead to a consideration of the situa
tion of the whole situation In the
Turkish empire.

Chicago, Aug. 10. General Miles
passed through hero today, en route
to Sun I'rancisco, to attend the Grand
Army encampment.
With prominent citizens who met
him nt the train, he ably discussed
his plans for the disarmament of tho
powers.
While General Miles has spent his
life ns a soli'.!r. he says that war Is
abhorrent to human Intelligence, and
me reieiuion oi inrgo armies is a use
less taxation on the masses of tho
peoplo who bear the great burdens of
civilization.
Ills plan In detail Is to call a con
M'oss of the civilized jKiwers and the
adoption by this congress of a rule,
binding upon all alike, that each gov
ernment shall maintain a standing
army consisting or one regular soldier
to each 1,000 Inhabitants.
The soldiers now maintained In the
standing armies of the world, to be
come farmers and artisans, thus ie
llevlug the governments of earth or
millions Qf parasites whose solo oc
cupation Is war.
He says the armies or the world are
artificial Torces, and In the changing
conditions that Incessantly visit gov
ernments will eventually plunge tho
world Into disaster. Ho has made
war a study and In a life time de
voted to this barbaric art, bus been
convinced that the maintenance of
Immense armies, and the awrtil ex
pense and waste consequent upon
their maintenance, Is tbo cause or
the undermining dlsroutent, the
glowing anarchy, and the destructive
class struggles Hint curse humanity
today
He would reduce the awful waste
oi Illc and money occasioned by .'so
Iess wars, by substituting universal
arbitration, and would replace the
army or Idluness with one of useful
urtlsans. whose mission in life would
bo to add to tbo sum o' human hap
piness, and human comfort, lnstea.i
