VIRTUE Not Meeting With the Reward the People Had Been led to Expect. THE PEOCE'S POSITION As Illegal and Unrecognized as It Was When He Went to Sofia, STAMBOULOFFS IDEAS OF THINGS, in English liberal Organ Blasts Enssia's Decided Stand. GLADSTOM! STILL A WONDERFUL MAN tET CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.: London;. April 16. Copyright. It is Ardent that Bulgaria is about to occupy the attention of European monarchs and statesmen once more. Prince Ferdinand and his astute Prime Minister have been behaving themselves so 'well for a long time past that most people had almost for gotten the fact that the Prince has not yet been recognized by Europe as the lawful ruler of Bulgaria, and that the Czar of Bussia regards him as an impudent usurper. 2?ot a year has passed since Fer dinand went to Sofia without the assurance from England, Austria and the other powers that if Bulgaria would only be quiet and patient all would be well, but fire years haTe gone and the Prince's posi tion remains nominally as illegal as ever. , To Judge from the note which the Gov ernment at Sofia has just addressed to the Porte, Bulgarian patience is becoming ex hausted. Bulgaria has been virtuous, that has been her only reward. Her Prince re mains unrecognized, and the murderers of her statesmen still find cafe asylum in Turkey and Russia, Unanswerable Facta Bet Forth, The facts set forth in this remarkable note, in dignified language not unworthy of a foreign minister of a great power, are really unanswerable, and the logio of the deductions therefrom cannot be upset by the sophistry of all the diplo mats in Europe. But Stamboulofif's de mands, that the Sultan shall obtain from Bussia the extradition of the murderers re ferred to and give further proof of good will by formally recognizing Prince Ferdi nand, are enougn to create dismay in everv foreign office, the mere formulation of which is calculated to set diplomats by the ears, and compliance with them would prob ably set Europe in a blaze. It is certain, therefore, that Bulgaria will receive no sat isfaction, either from the Sultan or from the powers, for the Czar remains immovable, and nobody dares provoke him. As Stambouloff is clever enough to under stand this, people in London, Berlin and particularly In Vienna, are asking them selves why he has raised the most Burning questions at this particular moment EtambouIotTs Opinion or His Own. It has been for rears an axiom of Eu ropean diplomacy that if England and the central powers should recognize Prince Ferdinand the Czar would express his em phatic dissent by Invading Bulgaria; but Stambouloff is known to hold a contrary opinion. He believes the Czar will attempt the invasion and the subjugation of Bul garia as soon as he feels strong enough to defy the Triple Alliance, and not one mo ment earlier, and that it will make no differ ence to Russian intentions whether Europe recognizes Prince Ferdinand or continues to treat his position as irregular or illegal. A good many people are beginning to share the opinion of the Bulgarian states men, and to argue that the time has come or at any rate is fast approaching when European subservience to Bussia shall cease the knowledge that Bulgaria's friends are daily increasing in number in every European capital except Paris and St. Petersburg and may well encourage Stam bouloff to bolder action, seeing that Sir. Gladstone will soon be in power in this country. Complete flop of an Ortran. The editorial comments on the Bulgarian question in the Daily -Vacs, the chief Liberal organ, are of considerable importance. The Daxly Neat has often shown pro-Bussian pro clivities but the recent conduct of the Czar's Government has been too much for it. It says to-day: The Bulgaria note Is a model or dienlty and sound reasoning. It establishes the full responsibility of Hussla.lf not for two recent murderers of Bulgarian statesmen, at least for the Impunity which the alleged authors or them enjoy. The Bulgarian refu pees who are concerned in the atrocities are patronized by the Pan-Slavist societies of j the shadow cast by the gallery. He rarely speaks in debate, and to all outward ap pearance the Irish Parliamentary majority is led by Thomas Sexfon and Timothy Healy. Bnmor Kept on the Tlns Nobody in authority will say what all this pretends, but rumor is busy enough. It is asserted, for instance, that Mr. Dillon is about to retire into private life, and Mr. O'Brien is credited with the intention of emigrating to a more equable climate, in order to get cured of his lung trouble. On the other hand, it is whispered that these gentlemen, so far from retiring from the struggle, intend shortly to attempt to purge the party by issuing an appeal to the Irish people to elect only candidates whose stanchess is vouched for by John Dillon and "William O'Brien. The outlook is disheartening to the friends of Ireland. "Whichever way they turn, the strong brain and iron hand of a P'arnell are urgently required and are sought in vain. Great Britain's Grand Old Man has this week, without apparent effort, succeeded In demolishing the theories of those who sought to erect airy castles upon the hypo thesis that the ex-Premier's day was past and that his mental and physical powers were failing. On Monday he sat attentively listening to Gcschen's financial statement. a subject on which he had later a few words to say. On Tuesday he was in his library by 7, and clearing up the last of his cor respondence. The Old Stan Hard to Knock Oat. At 10 o'clock he and Mrs. Gladstone were on their way to Euston, with valise and wraps to catch the train for Hawarden. The horse" fell, kicked, broke the shafts and smashed in the front of the brougham, but before the coachman could, get oft his box the Grand Old Juvenile had alighted and hailed a passing hansom, and in two minutes was on his way aeain to the station. The 300- mile ride in a railway carriage was to him one of restful ease, and the carriage drive to his country home was a stimulant Din ner, a visit to his son, and a two-hour lecture on "What "We Owe Egypt," given In the village hall, where he sat until the last word was spoken, brought about bed time. Ifext morning, at 7:45 o'clock, Gladstone was afoot, pacing merrily In the face of a driving storm in the direction of the village church, where he attended morning prayer and then strode away home to breakfast After that four hours of correspondence brought about luncheon time, and then there was an afternoon with Homer and another visit to the village hall at night, this time to attend a gymnastic exhibition. He looked so radiant, so full of life and spirits, that it would not have surprised the other spectators if he had tackled the vault ing horse or the flying trapeze, but he con tented himself with applauding with all the enthusiasm of the small boy present, and giving prizes to the winners, after which he walked home through two inches of snow. strangling the enterprise while there was a shorter route to the sea outward, though it ran through Portuguese territory, I believe they would have bought or fought, but, any how, there would have been a railway in course of construction long ere this. For the moment the future of Mashona land Is discussed almost exclusively from a gold point of view, but on the great plateau where white men can live as comfortably as at home there are said to be vast tract of land, well watered, well wooded, with rich soil and magnificent grass, toward which shrewd farmers are already beginning to move from the Transvaal. The big boom will probably not' commence before the con struction of" the railway has made some progress. Farmers who can get on to the agricultural land before then will make as much money or more than the gold seekers. Cecil Rhodes, the South African premier, is having a much quieter reception here this year than he had last season, when he was made society's lion. He is here primarily to seek medical advice for the injuries which he sustained a few months ago in be ing thrown from his horse, but business in the shape of further South African exploita tion is not to be forgotten. So far he has not appeared in public, but he will see both Lord Salisbury and Lord Knutsford when they return to London after the Easter recess. FAME OF P1CTSBUBG.

He is not a Bussian sub ject, and if he were he ehould still be an swerable to the Turkish tribunal for an of fense committed on Turkish soil. The Rus sian Government is completely without a case, but it has the strong arm which usual ly forms a sufficient substitute for bad logic I nder this ser.so of impunity It has grown altogether shameless. Can't Count on England's Support If these editorial utterances be taken to represent the opinion of the great English Liberal party, as undoubtedly they do, Prince Ferdinand and M. Stambouloft may be excused for supposing that in the event of trouble they can reckon upon England's support The course of the illness of M. de Giers, is being watched with great anxiety. He was once fairly well described as the "Czar's head clerk," but even head clerks often exercise considerable influence over their masters, and De Giers was sometimes able to influence the Czar to modify his policy in some measure. Europe has al ways believed that whatever influence the Bussian Chancellor possessed was used in the interest of peace and moderation, and his death at the present critical juncture would be generally deplored. Some of the Irish leaders are squabbling afresh this time over the paltry matter of the composition of the board of directors of the Freeman's Journal and theNational Press Company. Mr. John Dillon thinks that Mr. Timothy Healy has intrigued him out of the chairmanship of the company, and the country is invited to take sides in a dis pute which never ought to have been made public Farnellltes Feeling Greatly Encouraged. The Parnellites are greatly encouraged by this quarrel, which they regard as fresh proof of the existence of those personal rivalries and jealousies which thev have 11 along contended will make it impossible for the Irish parliamentary majority to act with vigor and singleness of purpose in the new Parliament, which will be called upon to settle the home rule question. In connec tion with the matter the attitude of "Will iam O'Brien is remarkable, although up to the present it has not attracted public at tention. He has rarely been seen at "West minster, and upon the few occasions which he has been in the House of Com mons he has sat far apart from his col leagues, with whom he rarely, communi cates. Mr. John Dillon, too, no longer sits on what is known as the Irish ministerial bench, but occupies a most obscure seat on the top row below the gangway, well within , BEHEADED AT THE ALTAR, A Madman Amuck In a Tillage Cathollo Church In Spain The Priest Assassin ated and a Woman Killed The Maniac Probably a Suicide, Madrid, April 16. A most horrible deed was committed yesterday in a small church at Anglesea, a village in the Province of Lerida. The usual services of Good' Friday were being observed, and the church was filled to its utmost capacity. Father Fran cisco Marti, the priest in charge of the parish, was kneeling at the altar. Sud denly a man, armed with a revolver and a short sword, sprang out from behind the pulpit, to the left of the altar where he had been concealed, and rushed upon the priest, brandishinc his sword. Father Marti, whose back was to the con gregation, seemed to have instinctive warn ing that danger threatened him, and he partly turned his head in the direction of the man. But he was' too late to do more than raise his hand -to attempt to ward off the sword blow he saw aimed at him. The man stood over his kneeling victim, and in an instant the priest lay dead in front of the altar where he, had long served. The assassin's blow Aad struck the back of his neck, and the keen blade almost severed his head from the body. The corpse fell for ward and a stream of blood poured down the altar steps. Part of the hand the priest had raised in his vain effort to ward off the blow was cut off and lay beside the bleeding body. Women shrieked-in terror and many of them fainted. Some of the more cool headed men attending the services made an attempt to seize the murderer, but they were thwarted. Leveling a revolver he fired right and left and drove his would-be captors to seek safety in flight One woman. shrinking and crouching close to the altar rail, was hit by one of the bullets. She uttered a most piercing shriek, threw up her hands and fell'dead to the floor. A gen eral rush was made for the doors, and many of the people were thrown down and trampled upon by the excited throngs be hind them. Many of them were quite seriously injured in this manner, among the numoer oeinjj some cmiaren, who It is be lieved will die The assassin sprang into the fleeing crowd, and wielding his sword, still dripping with the blood of the mur dered priest, he slashed right and left, cutting his way to the street Quite a num ber were struck by the weapon and danger ously wounded. "When he reached the street the assassin started on a run and soon vanished. The civil guard was alarmed by the frightened people, and a pursuit was immediately or ganized. Thus far every effort to capture the murderer has been in vain, but the search has not been abandoned. From de scriptions eiven of him the murderer has been identified as a retired soldier. It is thought probable that the assassin has sought some secluded place and there killed nimseii. jn o reason is Known tor the crime, and it is believed by almost everyone that the man was insane Fitful Flashes From Afar.

LONDON", April 16. Mr. E. A. Mannd. one of the pioneer explorers of Mashona land, gave to the Royal Colonial Institute the other night an extremely interesting ac count of the present position of that vast African territory, which, in the opinion of dispassionate observers, is destined to be come one of England's greatest possessions. Mr. Maund has invested his fortune in the country, and has no doubt of the result Earlier reports as to the good prospects of this country were very conflicting, but there is no longer room for HnnVi Mashonaland will pin out well in this. The immediate prospects of the country are en tirely dependent upon the establishment of quicker communication. At ' present the freight from England to Fort Salisbury, the capital of Mashonaland, is between 75 and 80 per ton, so that it does not pay to send out machinery except to the very richest reefs. A railway from the east eoast to Fort Salisbury, less than 400 miles long, will alter the whole position, and as the difficulty with Portugal has been iuit arranged, the work will be taken in hand soon. The British South Africa Company, to which Mashonaland -belongs, has not been idle Fort Salisbury, which a year ago was only a name, now has brick hotels, clubs, billiard rooms, stores, a hospital, a church, newspapers and a prison, and telegraphio communication with London; but "Mr. Maund is not altogether satisfied with the progress made, and contrasts it with the work of Americans in much less favorable circumstances. He says: Had Western settlers occupied Mashona land and found the long Southern routs It Is Deliberately Taken by a Victim of Alooholism la the Presence of Boon Companions They Hurriedly Take Him to a Philadelphia Hospital. Philadelphia, April 16. Deputy Cor oner Dugan held an inqnest at noon to-day on the body of Richard M. Watson, a prom inent stock broker of New Tork, who com mitted suicide in a remarkably cool manner late Thursday night According to evi dence presented, "Watson entered St Joseph's Hospital February 13, being over come with an attack of acute alcoholism while visiting the city. He experienced a similar trouble before in New York City, where for a time he was treated at St Yin cent's Hospital. Although the fact was not generally known, Watson's mind had also been some what unbalanced, and he had delusions con cerning imaginary losses of hundreds of thousands of dollars in the stock market After spending eight weeks in the hospital, Watson seemed to be improving, and went out for a walk with a friend named Thomas McDevitt Thursday evening. On Broad street he entered a drug store, where he had previously introduced him self as Dr. Watson, of St Joseph's Hospital, and asked for an eighth of an ounce of sul phate of morphia. Supposing him to be a habitual morphine consumer, the drutreist .re fused to fill the order without a prescrip tion. v aison compiiea oy writing an order on the back of an old envelope, signing his name as "Dr. Richard M. Watson." Then he asked for a glass, but the druggist re fused. In company with his friend, Watson then went to a neighboring saloon, where he poured the drug into an empty glass, which he then ordered filled with beer. He drank the foaming contents before McDevitt real ized what had happened, and when the latter questioned him as to the meaning of wnas naa occurred, watson coolly replied: "I've taken enough poison to kill four men, and I'll be dead in 20 minutes." He volunteered the additional informa tion that he preferred death to life in an in sane asylum. McDevitt hurried the unfor tunate man into a. cab, and drove to the hos pital where he died a few hours later despite the physicians' efforts.

A horrible double tragedy occurred here this afternoon, in which John E. Geist killed his wife Alice and then shot himself. They have been married about 19 years, and have not lived happily together of late years. Geist has been jealous of his wife, and being under the influence of liguor to-day, he became ex cited, and as he drew a revolver Mrs. Geist screamed and started to run.

NewTobk, April 16 Pittsburg Is en titled to the doubtful honor of being, in the minds of immigrants, the most popular eity in America west of New Tork. Chicago, Cincinnati and other rivals of Pittsburg are considered mere villages by the foreigner of a day or a week In the United States who sees or thinks he sees a fortune within his grasp if he can only beg, bor row or steal enough cash to buy a railroad ticket to the Iron City. The first word a big poportion of the Slavs, Poles and Italians speak as they step from the gang' plank of an immigrant ship to the Ellis Island Sta tion is "Pittsburg" in as many different styles of mispronunciation as a lingnist could think of In a day. They are all anxious to get to the Iron City first and from there they scatter all over Western Pennsylvania and Northern West Virginia. The only record of destination the immi grant authorities keep is of the States to which the foreigners say they are going. As the immigrant's idea of "State" is as limited as the rest of his knowledge, It is almost always necessary for the clerk to learn the name of the town or city. In this wavthe authorities have found out that more immigrants go to Pittsburg than any city in America except New York. A great many, of course, remain at the port for a week or so until contractagents pick them up and send them to different parts of the country. This makes the proportion for New York larger than it Is in fact Nearly 4,000 for Plttabnrg In March. Daring the month of March, I learned from a receiving clerk, there were 7,467 Im migrants who gave their destination as Pennsylvania. Of these it was estimated that over half went to Pittsburg, McKees port, Braddock, Scottdale and surrounding towns. Very few stopped east of the Alle ghenles. "The immigrants who go to Pittsburg and other points in Western Pennsylvania, " continued the clerk, "are mostly Slavs, Poles, Hungarians and Italians who have no trade, no money, nothing hut ignorance, destitution and power of endurance that enables them to live on fare that would drive others to starvation." They are not the most dangerous class of foreigners, but they are certainly the most ignorant They are not of the horde that are evoluted into Anarchists, neither do they make good citi zens. It would hardly be prope'r for me to say that Pittsburg is not a gainer on account of the favor in which it stands with this class, but such a conclusion would probably be reached by a close observer." "Why is it that foreigners go to Pittsburg in preference to other cities?' ''Because in Europe Pittsburg is talked about more than any other American city except New York. Of course, the World's Fair is bringing Chicago into prominence, but not as an industrial center. Pittsburg iron is known the world over, and foreign ers think Pittsburg manufacturers must be looking for laborers all the time." Just then a ragged working man with a coffee sack that contained his wardrobe in his arms spoke to the receiving clerk, who translated the immigrant's question as being one about Pittsbprg. Through the clerk as an interpreter, the Italian told me his cap ital consisted of (16, a big knife and lots of hope for immediate fortune as soon as he reached Pittsburg. He thought he would take a job id an iron mill, but he hadn't concluded what position to accept He said he hadn't a friend on this side of the At lantic, and judging from his looks it wonld seem strange ft he could be able to get a friend anjplace. It was stated by the im migrant authorities that he was a fair speci men of the class of foreigners Pittsburg re ceives. Pittsburg Doesn't Get Women and Children. The city is fortunate in one respect, how ever, and that is that the majority of its Immigrants leave their families in the old country, where they hope to return In a few years. The class of foreigners that go far ther West and settle on farms are usually accompanied by their families. They come to America expecting to make the country their home. Minnesota is getting to be a lavorite State, and during March 1,040 im migrants gave that State as their destina tion. Illinois, on account of a great many going to Chicago, got 3,627. Indiana es caped with 192 and Ohio with 903. Only 80 went direct to West Virginia, but a great many more would go from Pittsburg to Wheeling. The immigrants are a little more numer ous in the month of March than in the fall and winter months. The number continues increasing in April and commences falling off again In midsummer. The books of last Thursday show that 5,424. immigrants landed at Ellis Island; the largest number that ever came in a single day to the New York port There were no unusual circumstance to bring such a flood of foreigners to the American shores.

The immigra tion has been greater in the last two months than ever before, and if the start made is continued at the same rate the increase will be enough to scare almost every voter in the land into the People's party. Money the Immigrant Bring. In Thursday's horde there were but 60 who had over tlOO. A few more had over f 10, but the majority had $5 or less. If a pool of the Wealth of all the passengers in the six shiploads had been made there would scarcely have been wealth enough to have bought each of t"hem a square meal at a first-class hotel, and after railroad tickets had been purchased the balance of cash on hand in the whole crowd would not have been greater than the weekly contribution of a liberal American Sunday school. The Scandinavians and Italians usually have the least money. Some of them send funds ahead to their friends, but it is very seldom they have funds to send. Thurs day's product was unusually poverty stricken. The immigrants were nearly all from continental countries. Over 1,400 were Italians, 600 Scandinavians, COO Ger mans, a few Americans, and the rest were Principally Poles, Slavs, Hungarians, rench and Hollanders. A surprising fact was that in the entire number there were only six Hebrews. Not more than a month azo Russian Hebrews were flocking to America by the shipload. I asked Mr. M. Reinherz, the representa tive of the United Hebrew Charities, for an explanation, and he said the falling off ia the immigration to this country is not due to any mercy of the Russian authorities, but to the tact that the exiled Hebrews have been persuaded to seek homes in the Argentine Republio instead of America. "Our people are going to South America by the thousands," continued Mr. Beinhen. "The opportunity for them to engage in farming is better there than here, and wa think that ia the best thing for them to do. Baron de Hirsch has contributed 16,000,000 to provide Russian Hebrews in the Argen tine Republio with farming implement and stock. The land eosts them nothing, and other inducement are so greatT that few exiles are going to other countries. Tragic Death or a Befngee. 'There is no cessation, however, in the) cruelty of the Russian officials or the Ger mans, who will net allow exiles to cross their borders. Of the six Hebrew exiles who landed on Thursday one of them told me that while trying to steal across the Ger man border at night his brother, who woa with him, was shot dead in his tracks. The living brother escaped to the house of a friend, who the next day put him in a wa?on box, covered him with straw and hauled him to a railroad station, from which, he was able to make his way to a sea port" Referring to the Pittsburg branch of the Hebrew Charities, Mr. Reinherz said it wa one of the most liberal in the country, and had taken good care of all the exiles he had sent to them. All Immigrants are now received at the new station at Ellis Island, which has been brought into notiee by the Congressional investigation with regard to expenditures. Castle Garden as a place of public Interest is no more. It has been as famous as the rock of Gibraltar, but hereatter novelists and romance writers must use the less poetlo name of Ellis Island. But while romance may have lost something in the change of name, it has been a gainer from the fact that when the Immigrant leaves Ellis Island in the ferry boat he is free to land without having his enthusiasm chilled by undergoing the sharp questions of the Federal officials. As things were formerly arranged, immigrants were landed at the station and after passing two or three hour with the officials were showed out into a new world through a big door that led to a cobblestone street Now the new comer passes his examina tion before he reaches Manhattan Island, ia put on a ferry boat, and after a ten minutes' ride can wave a greeting to his friends on shore, and after he steps on land join them with- as much freedom as a native bora citizen.
