BALKAN TREATY.
SETTLEMENT OF BOUNDARIES. DEMANDS OF BULGARINA. By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. LONDON, April 13. It is stated, in reference to M. Daneff’s. speech, that the treaty with Scrvm is precise, and provides that the Czar shall act as arbitrator in the event of differences over a settlement.

Nevertheless the delimitation can be based tolerably accurately on the number of troops employed and the sacrifices of life and treasure.
