EVENTS OFTHE DAY
MAY MEAN WAR.
8POKANE NEYT YEAR.
Clouds Looming Dark Over Balkan
States Once More.
London, Oct. 6__ Events which threat­
en to change the political face of Eu­
rope are crystallising with lightning-
like rapidity. Almost over night the
horison of the near eaat, which seemed
gradually assuming a peaceful appear­
ance, has become crowded with war
clouds.
News has reached here from several
sources that two definite strokes are
impending which cannot fail to bring
matters to a crisis, and perhaps force
an immediate war.
One ia the proclamation of Prince
Ferdinand, of the Independence of Bul­
garia, which will include Roumelia,
taking for himself the title of exar.
The other is an announcement by
Austria-Hungary of the practical an­
nexation of the provinces of Bosnia
and Hercegovina as appanages of the
Austro-Hungarian crown.
Either action will be equivalent to
the tearing up of the treaty of Berlin,
while Prince Ferdinand’s course seems
almost certain to precipitate a war be­
tween Bulgaria and Turkey.
Before these possibilities the quar­
rel of the East Roumelian section of
the Orient railwav sinks into insignifi­
cance. Both armies are reported to be
quietly and swiftly mobilizing on the
borders. Bulgaria is said to be buying
up munitions and horses on an extensive
scale.
The Bulgarians have faith in their
army, which has reached a high state
of efficiency, although it is perhaps
lacking in officers, and the war for
which Bulgaria has long been suspected
of preparing could be fought with more
advantage to her now than when the
Turkish government has had time to
reorganize its forces, enervated by cor­
ruption and neglect of the old regime.
Washington City Secures Meeting of
Irrigation Congress.
Albuquerque, N. M., Oct. 5.— Spokane
was selected as the meeting place for
the seventeenth national irrigation con­
gress, at the close of the sixteenth con­
gress Saturday. Pueblo withdrew at
the last moment, and the vote was made
unanimous.
The new governing board of the con­
gress, created by this meeting, was
elected Saturday at * meeting o f the
executive committee. This board has
full powers to manage the affairs of
the congress and to eontinne its work
between sessions. The members are:
President, G. H. Barstow, of Texas;
secretary, B. A. Fowler, of Arizona;
W. A. Beard, of California, chairman
o f the executive committee, and Fred
J. Kiesel, of Utah; Dr. W. J. McGee, of
Washington, D. C.; John Dixon, of
Montana, and one other member, who
is to be selected by the board.
The closing session was made inter­
esting by a strong address by Congress­
man Joseph E. Ransdell, of Louisiana,
president of the national rivers and
harbors congress, who urged, co-opera­
tion between hit organization and the
national irrigation congress.
That an international congress will
be held at some one o f the South Amer­
ican capitals in 1910 ia now fairly as­
sured, although the matter will not be
determined until the congress meets in
1909.
The industrial exposition will con­
tinue until October 10* Between $15,-
000 and $20,000 in trophies and prizes
will be awarded at the close of the ex­
position.
