WATSON A 'EE'RETI'O? Charges Against Ian MacLax-en at the Coming Presbyterian Synod. LONDON. March 22.—A petition prom-et- ed by the Rev. Dr. Kennedy Moore will be presented at the coming Presbyterian synod against the Rev. Dr. John Watson (Ian MacLaren) on the ground of hetero- dox teaching in “Mind and Master” and “The Bonnie Brier Bush. ” on the subject, says: “The petition calls the attention of the synod to the fact that Dr. Watson has not repudiated the public charge that his teaching tends to Unitari- anism. If the business committeeof the synod rejects the petition, the promoters intend to raise the matter and force a dis cussion. ” Dr. Watson in an interview said: “I am quite prepared to answer any charges. All I can say now is that it is a matter in which I am not gravely concerned.” Cleveland's Last Payment.

Dr. Moore, in reply to a communicatiom ' SITUATION NNN EAST! l .l .’ Turkey Appears to Regard the Cretan Blockade as Useless. VASSOS IS STILL DEFIANT. He Declares fie “’ill Destroy All Decrees of Autonomy \Vhich May Fall Into His Hands—The Greek Forces Are Well Provisioned. Constantinople, March 23.—-The opin—_ .on prevails here that the blockade of the island of Crete by the fleets of the foreign powei:, which began at 8 o’clock yesterday morning, will be a. useless proceeding, as Colonel Vassos, commander of the Greek army of occu— pation, is well supplied with provi- sions. It is now thought that the best means to accomplish the withdrawal of the Greek troops from Crete would be to withdraw the Turkish troops from there. - . Difficulty is already being experienced in feeding the Turkish troOps on the frontier. Edhem.Pasha, the Turkish commander in Macedonia, has tele- graphed thc minister of war not to send any further re-enforcements on ac- count of the scarcity of provisions. He has twice submitted his resignation to the ports, but the ministers refused to accept it. . The commander of the Turkish squadron just made ready for sea. has received sealed orders, but it is not be- lieved the warships will leave Gal- lipoli. Their departure from here was intended to justify the minister of ma- rine in the eyes of the sultan and to inspire the Mussulmans with confi- dence. During the disorders at Tokat, in the Sivas district of Asia Minor, reported yesterday, 15 persons were killed on both sides. The Turks attacked the Armenians while the latter were in church. It is feared that the outbreak marks a. renewal of the massacres of Armenians. Servians Are Passive—Perhaps. Belgrade, March 23.—-The report that the reserves and militia of the Servian army have been called out is pronounc- ed untrue, and it is said to have been based upon the fact that the officers of the reserves and militia. have been summoned to attend a course of lec- tures at the military academy. It is Officially declared that the government of Servia has no wish to endanger the peace of Europe, that no troops are massed on the frontier and that such a. step is not contemplated. . Highlanders For Klmnia. Valetta, Island of Malta, March 23.—« The Seaforth highlanders have sailed for Khania, Crete, on board the trans- port Clyde. They will arrive at their destination on Wednesday. Christians Angry. London. March 23.—A dispatch to The Times from Khania says that Chief Manouli at Rodia represents that the insurgents mistook the Austrian warship Sebenico for a. Turkish vessel and thus were misled into a. hostile ac- tion. The Christians are very ingry at the proposed landing of British troops, for they assume that these will side with the Mohammedans. Thecorrespondent of The Daily Mall at Berlin says the Berlin Post pub- lishes a. telegram to the effect that two Greek lieutenants have been arrested in the Turkish camp at Elassonavand condemned to be shot as spies. Vassos has announced that he will tear up every copy of the autonomy proposition that comes within his reach. This annorincement, made to an official representative of the powers, is taken to indicate that Vassos will assume an offensive position. The Cretans are not yet assured of the desire of Europe to accomplish a. peaceful solution of the troubles of the island. They insist that the Turkish troops should first be withdrawn from the island. This action they would re- gard as an earnest of good faith on the part of the powers. Pillage and fighting continue. At. Halipa three Turkish soldiers were caught stealing by the officials. They fired upon the gendarmes, who return- ed the shots,_ and one of the soldiers was killed. ‘ Russia. and Turkey. Copenhagen, March 23.——The semi- official Berlingske Tidente publishes a dispatch from Athens saying that an agreement has been concluded whereby Russia guarantees the integrity of the Turkish empire in return for an island in the Mediterranean and‘the peninsula. of= Mount Athos, situated in Turkish territory, at the extremity of the penin- sula of Chalces, 80 miles southeast of Salonika. On the flanks of the moun- tain, which is 6,778 feet high, are sev- eral villages and 22 convents, besides chapels, cells and grottoes, inhabited by more than 3,000 monks. It was the seat of the first seminary of the Greek church and its most celebrated theo- logical school. lVarships For Germany. Berlin, March 23.—It is reported that a syndicate with a. capital of 100,000,000 marks has. undertaken to employ Herr Krupp, the great gunmaker, to build the warships which the reichstag re- fuses and that they will place these at the disposal of the government when the reichstag from time to time votes the money for them in coming years. The Coal Miners’ Troubles.
