The former is 1101. coaling at Cerigo. The

cabinet was in session until 2 a. n1

It is officially stated that only 1, 500 out
of the 05. 000 army reserve men called out
cave failed to respond, thus setting at rest
the stories circulated of wholesale failure
to answer the call to arms.

A dispatch from Khania today says that
.111 Austrian newspaper man, Herr Pinten,
who recently visited the camp of Colonel
Vassos, commander of the Greek army of
occupation, has been arrested there and
detained under close guard. Colonel Vas~
sos remains at Alikangu.

The Greek warship Nanarchos Miaulis
has arri1 ed at the Piraeus, having on board
12 prisoners who were captured during a
recent attack which the Turks made upon
Monodendri, near Platania. Three emis-
saries of the Turkish legation at Athens
have been arrested in the camp of Colonel
Vassos. An engagement is expected today
at Menexe, on the frontier of Thessaly, in
consequence of the re- enforcing of the
Turkish garrison there.

Teleg1ams received here from the Mace-
‘ionian frontier describe the situation as
one of the utmost activity and of expecta-
tion of war at an early date. The Greeks
are working hard to imprm o the roads.
All the outposts are conn: cted by telegraph
with headquarters at Larissa, where sear eh-
lights have been fixed Both Greeks and

A Plot Reported.

LONDON, March 50. —A dispatch from

Galatz, Boumania, says it isrepm ted there

. in Greek circles that a plot is hatching
among the Greeks at Constantinople, where
there are 30, 000 well armed Greeks, to re-
volt against the government. It is added
that there are few kais .1 troops now at
Constantinople except the snitan’s body-
guard, and thz1 t it 11 ould be impossible to
recall hurriedly the troops from the Greek
frontier in the event of a revolt at Con-
stantinople. A large body of Greeks which
recently left Galatz, ostensibly for Greece,
is now said to be really destined for Con—
stantinople.

A dispatch from Khania to The )ews
says that the note communicated to Colo-
nel Vassos by the french and Italian oili-
cers yesterday did not orde1 him to 103.19
the island with his forces within 36 hours,
as previously cabled, but merely informed
him of the blockade and requested him not
to prevent the distribution of the admirals’
proclamation.

A \Varning From Servia.

COXSTAV‘TIN oan, March .‘30. T he Ser-
vian minister here has called the serious
attention of the Turkish government to
the situation of affairs existing in the
province of Kossovo, where, it is asserted,
the Christians are panic stricken in conse-
quence of the mobilizing of the Turkish
reserves and bashi bazeuks. He also drew
attention to the recent attack upon the
Servian and Austrian consuls in a cafe at
Uskub, situated about 100 miles north-
west of Salonika, and referred to the cor-
rect attitude observed by Servia during the
present crisis, expressing the hope that the
porte would put a stop to the existing sit-
uation, “a continuation of which,” it was
added, “may have serious consequences ”

The Turkish Officials in Epirus are for-
cibly preventing the Greeks rayahs (per-
sons not Mohammedans who pay the capi-
tation tax) who are Ottoman subjects from
leaving Epirus to join the Greek forces.

Yassos’ Forces.

KHANIA, March 20.—The camp of Colo-
nel Vassos consists of 2,000 regulars, 500
volunteers and about 17,000 insurgents.
The French colony is preparing a protest
to the government at Paris against the
proposed occupation of Candia by a British
detachment. The only ground of protest,
stated is that Candia, besides being the
central telegraph station for communicat—
ing with France, is also the chief trading
center. Almost all of the merchants and
exporters in Crete are Frenchmen.

The Sultan Summons 3 Council.
CONSTANTINOPLE, March 20.—The sul-
tan has summoned a grand council of
ministers to meet shortlyat the Yildiz
kiosk to consider a. scheme of reforms pro-
pounded by his majesty. This, it is,re-
ported, comprises a. constitution 0n the
model of Iiiidhat l’asha’s and is intended
to forestall any possible action of the pew
ers in the diieetion of aperemptorv de-
mand for better government in the 'lurk-
ish provinces. A military commission is
discussing the expediency of summoning
the last line of reserves, which would
bring the whole number under colors to
more than 500,000. Additional ordnance
has been sent to the Dardanelles, which
are being constantly strengthened, to the
_ complete neglect of the Besporus. The
Ottoman hank advanced only at the
last moment the. 1: ~00, 000 required by the
porte for military expenses. The misery
of the Turkish temps is intense. Their
wages have not been paid for the last nine
months, and many officers are selling their
arms and uniforms to get food.

GERMAN. NAVAL DEBATE.

Imperial Treasury Declares the Country
Can Afford More Vessels.

BERLIN,M.1rch 20.'—'rhe debate on the
governments demand for extra naval
credits 11 as resumed in the reichstag today.
There was a large attendance of deputies,
and a good many spectators were in the
galleries. Prince Henry of Prussia, broth-
er of. the emperor and vice admiral com-
manding a division of the German fleet at
Kiel, occupied a seat in the chamber.

Count l’ogado1vsky-Wchner, secretary
of the imperial treasury, maintained that
the financial position of the treasury and
the country was excellent and entirely
adequate to bear the increased outlay de-
manded for the needs of the navy.

Herr von Vollmar, Social Democrat,
condemned the whole military and naval
policy of the government. The reichstag,
he said. did not want to come into conflict
with the government, but if such a condi—
tion of things must arise it were better
that the issue should be fought out now.

The imperial chancellor, Prince Hohen-
lohe, said that the reports that discord had
arisen between himself and Admiral Holl-
mann, the chief of the admiralty, were ab-
solutely baseless. Admiral Hollmann, he
said, had loyally informed him of all of
his plans in advance of their presentation
to the reichsta-g, and there had been no
disagreement between them.

Dr. von Bennigsen, National Liberal,
strongly advocated the granting of the
credits which 1110 government had asked.

ITY Bil-FER Ol'l TARIFF.

Free \Vool Resolution Is Likely to Cause
Dissenting Reports.

WASUIXGTOX, March 20.—Dissensions
have arisen among the Democratic mem-
bers of the ways and means committee
which may result in the presentation of
two minority reports on the tariff bill.

Mr. Bailey of Texas, who is at the head
of the minority of the committee by virtue
of his position, will write the main report,
but it is not improbable that some of the
Democratic members will decline to sign
it. Mr. Bailey differs from his Democratic
colleagues radically on the subject Of free
wool, and when Mr. Mclilillin and Mr.
Wheeler offered amendments in the com-
mittee, the former to place wool on the
free list and the latter to make the maxi-
mum duty colleetcd on wools not to exceed
75 per cent ad valorem, he voted against
the McMillin amendmentand declined to
vote on that offered by General Wheeler.
Mr. Bailey takes the position that the Chi-
cago platform by implication opposed free
raw materials and especially free wool. the
great product of the west. The plank in
the Chicago platform held that the tariff
duties should be levied for purposes of rev-
enue, “such duties to be so adjusted as to
operate equally throughout the country
and not discriminate between class or sec-
tion. ”

This plank, other Democrats say, was
most cautiously drawn with a view to ap-
peasing the silver Republicans of the west,
who have always supported a wool duty.

The Mississippi Floods.

WASHINGTON, March 20.—Tl1e weather
bureau issues the following bulletin: The
heavy rainfalls will cause a continued rise
in the Cumberland, Tennessee, lower Ohio
and Mississippi rivers and intensify the
threatened flood conditions previously an—
nounced. It is probable that the floods in
the lower Mississippi valley during the
next ten days or two weeks will in many
places equal or exceed in height those of
any previous year.

Against Prizeflght Reports.

CASTILE, N. Y., March 20.—-Miss Fran-
ces Willard is in communication with the
leading women working for philanthropy
and reform, asking whether there cannot
be a combination of influence whereby
women throughout the country will agree
to give their patronage only to the “cleaner
newspapers, especially avoiding those that
furnish extended accounts of prizefights.’

 

'The Exhibition at Turin.

WASHI.‘ GTON, March 20. ———Baron Fava,

States, in a note to the state department
calls attention to the scsquiccntennial ex-
position 10 be held at Turin in 1808. He
says it will include an international sec-
tion of electricity and a section for “Ital-
ians abroad.” His government desires
that United States exhibitors participate.

Guarded Against a Possible Lynching.

GEORGETOWN, Del, March 20.—James
M. Gordy, the alleged murderer of Mrs.
Mary Lewis, or Mrs. J. M! Gordy, is safe
for the present. The report that a mob of
150 men were coming from Milford and
Milton to lynch the prisoner caused great
excitement. As an extra precaution the
s'herifl swore in 25 deputies, who patrolled
the town. No mob appeared.
