With the larger questions Of policy raised by the kidnapping and abdication of Prince Alexander Of Bulgaria, in the previous September, he had already had to deal as Prime Minister.1 The abdication had been a disheartening sequel to the struggle which he had waged on the Prince's behalf in the preceding year; the outburst Of indignation which the kidnapping had aroused throughout the principality and the enthusiasm which had greeted the Prince on his return, had left his surrender an unexplained catastrophe.
