Lord Salisbury Gives the Conditions Upon Which the Cretan Trouble Will Be Settled—King George Says Re Cannot Go Back Now. LONDON, Feb. 26. —In the house of lords today the Marquis of Salisbury, replying to a question from Lord Dunraven, said that as the best means of placing the house in mssession of the facts of the moment as regards Crete he would read a telegram sent esterday evening to the British em- bas ers to the courts of the great powers. It was as folloWs: “Inform the government to which you are accredited that her majesty’ s govern- ment proposes to make the following dec- laratiOn of the policy which they intend to pursue and which they believe is in ac- cordance with the views of their allies. “Firstly. ——-The establishment of an ad- 'ministrative autonomy in Crete is a neces- sary condition for the termination of the international occupation. “Secondly. —That, subject to the abOve condition, Crete ought, in their judgment, to remain a portion of the Turkish empire. “Thirdly. ~—The Turks and Greeks should be informed by the powers of this resolution. “Fourthly.—If Turkey and Greece should, when required, persistently refuse to withdraw their military and naval forces from the island, the powers should impose their decision by force upon the state so refusing.’ The Conditions Explained. '- The premier called special attention. to the words “when required,” adding that. it did not follow, in the case of Turkey, that her troops should be withdrawn im- mediately. On the other hand, he ex- plained, the withdrawal of the Turkish troops was a necessary condition of auton- omy. Therefore they would have to with- draw except so far as they had been kept in the cases of the island of Samos and Servia, simply as an indication of sover- eignty. For all effective purposes and in respect of all influences upon the govern- ment and daily life of the inhabitants the Turkish troops would evidently have to be withdrawn when autonomy was estab- lished. The Greek troops, the premier imagined, would be required by the powers to with- draw at an earlier date. He believed this was the course the powers desired to pur~ sue, but he could not go further into de- tail, believing that this was one of the necessary consequences of acting in con- cert. Continuing, the Marquis of Salisbury remarked: “Of course if the proposals which her majesty’s government have ventured to present were recognized by the other pow- ers as those animating t eir policy it is impossible for the present state of things in Crete to indefinitely continue.’ Greeks Will Not Leave Crete. ATHENS, Feb. 26,—King George and his government reiterate that it is impossible for them to retreat from their decision in regard to Crete, which is supported by the Whole nation. Two of the most influential newspapers of this city, the Akropolis and the. Nee. Hemera, urge that in deference to the demands of the powers the Greek army be withdrawn from Crete. Greece, the papers say, has done her utmost and has gone even to the limit of daring. “far Preparations In Turkey. CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 26.—-War prep- arations are actively proceeding in Tur- key. Quantities of mauser rifles and mu- nitions of war have been sent from here to Salonika and Adrianople, the consign-_ ments to the latter place being for the Mussulmans on the Bulgarian frontier. Similar measures are being taken on the Servian frontier. Activity at Larissa. PARIS, F eb. 26.—-A dispatch received here from Larissa, Greece, says that 20,000 Greek troops are concentrated there and that the greatest activity prevails. It adds that it is believed at Larissa that hostili- ties will immediately begin on the frontier in the event of Greece not being allowed to annex the island of Crete. To Believe Beleaguerod Mussulmanl. K111411115, Feb. Eli—Italian and Russian warships have gone to Selinos to take off the beleaguered Mussulmans, the Chris- tians having agreed thereto.

She was one of the first children born on the present site of Louisville, where she married in 1800. Mrs. Woods had a remarkable memory and related many incidents of life on the frontier. She saw George Wash- ington three times. A Bank to tResume. TONAWANDA, N. Y., Feb. 26.—The di- rectors of the German-American bank say they will resume business next Monday.
