THE llAC-ElltNllN RAID
Evidence Which Shows That the Gov-
emmcnt Authorized It.
TURKS arohrruan KRANIA.
The Story of a Greek Prisoner to 3. Cor; ’
respondent at Ellasona—Retreat of
the Irregulars—Strong Posi—
' tion of the llIoslems.
[Copyright,1897, by the Associated Press]
Larissa, April 17.—Severe fighting has
occurred in Macedonia between the
Greek irregulars and the Turkish
forces. The column of irregulars sent
to- the right from Pigavitza, after hav—
ing invested and captured Sitovon, con-
tinued its advancextoward Kritudes,
Plisia and Kourduzi, with orders to
hold Kourduzi at all costs, as it com-
mands the right approach to Grevena,
the objective point. This column, com-
manded by Chiefs Zermos and Luzzo,
attacked Kritudes on Tuesday. The
place was defended by two companies
of Turks. After a severe fight, during
which 80 Turks were killed and 25 taken
prisoners, the position was captured by _
the Greeks, Who also obtained posses-
sion of 150‘rifles and a quantity of car-
tridges.
The insurgents, however, have suf-
fered a severe check in another direc-
tion. A strong force of Turkish troops,
fr m Mecovon, with a number of moun—
tain guns, advanced on Krania, which
had previously been captured by the
Greeks, and attacked the 400 irregulars
‘of Greece who occupied an intrenched
position. It is reported that the fight-
ing was ferocious on both sides. The
insurgents, eventually, were compelled
to retreat north to the mountains. Some
of them, however, succeeded in break-
ing through the Turkish lines and es-
caped to Baltino, the town just across
the frontier, in Macedonia, first cap-
tured by the Greek irregulars and used
by them as a depot fer provisions and
ammunition. The-accounts given by
the refugees of the Turkish losses are
believed to be exaggerated.
lIany Turks Killed.
They say that 265 Turks were killed,
while the irregulars only had 8 men kill-
ed and 17 wounded. The leader of the
Greeks operating in that direction, Chief
Milonas, was among the wounded and
returned later into Greek territory with
a number of the refugees. One of the
latter says that a portion of the Turk-
ish force was composed of irregulars
whose dress resembles that of the Greek
insurgents. This, it appears, enabled
the Turkish force to execute a flank
movement unheeded by the leaders of
the Greeks. The refugee referred to
blames the Greek leaders for badly
handling their men.
All the refugees bore traces of having
experienced great fatigue, and it is re—
ported that the Ethnike Hetairia, or
. National league, has ordered the Greek
irregulars to retreat into Greek terri-
tory, regarding further bloodshed as
useless unless the regular army of
Greece supports the irregulars.
The crown princess has arrived here
to take part in the work of the ambu—
lance corps.
It is thought probable that Prince
Constantine, the crown prince and com-
mander in chief of the Greek forces, will
shortly move his headquarters to a
more central position, near Zarkos.
There is a feeling of great satisfaction
here at the declarations made by Pre-
mier Delyannis in the Greek chamber of
deputies.
Three hundred Hungarian horses, in-
tended for cavalry remounts, were land-
ed at V010 and are being forwarded to
Trikhala. '
From the Turkish Headquarters.
[Copyright,1897, by the Associated Press]
Elassona, April 17.—The representa-
tive of the Associated Press at the
Turkish headquarters has just seen a
prisoner who was captured by the
Turks during the fighting which has
just taken place at Krania with the
Greek irregulars. The man was dirty,
wore‘tattered clothes and had on his
head a helmet upon which was the
badge of the Ethnike Hetairia, the Na-
tional league of Greece. He declared
he belonged to a. band of irregulars
which left Trilthala, after receiving an
ovation from the inhabitants of that
place, under the command of a captain _
and two lieutenants of the Greek regu-
lar army and accompanied by a medi-
cal ofl‘icer, who was wounded. This
expedition, the prisoner added, was
organized by officers of the Greek reg-
ular army and was openly ordered to
invade Turkey, not to harm the vil—
lagers and to fight the Turkish troops
only.
After these statements it is difficult
to deny that the Greek irregulars were
organized with the knowledge of the
Greek authorities. This confirms the
inquiries made on this subject by Sey-
foulah Bey, an' officer on the staff of
Edham Pasha, theTurkish commander
in chief, formerly an attache of the
Turkish legation at Athens and conse-
quently familiar with the personal ap—
pearance of many Greek officers, some
of whom he recognized among the in—
surgents. -' .
The whole matter appears to form
the basis for a graveaccusation against
Greek good faith.
, The representative of the Associated
Press has visited the greater part of the
frontier line in this district and, after
inspecting all the passes, is convinced
the Turks hold_such strong positions
that the Greeks Will never be able to
enter Turkish territory in force.
imagine the Greeks will make an at-
tempt to do so. On the other hand, the
Turkish commander in chief Could send
a mass of troops into Greece by several
routes and easily capture Larissa. . ' 7

Additional Fatalities Reported From

Another Serious Rise of the River Has
Occurred at Davenport and Burling-
ton, Im—Terrible Strain on the
Louisiana Levees.
1
Thibodeau, La., April 17.—A crevasse
occurred at Leon Babins, a mile below
Lafourche crossing, west side. It will
[nundate the section between bayous
La Fourche and Terre Bonne from
Price’s Acadia plantation to the' gulf.
The water has fallen 15 inches at this
place in the past six hours.
At Lake Providence, La., the situa-
tion is critical. The river.is rising one-
Lenth of a foot every24 hours and stands
44 feet on the gauge, just four-tenths.
below the highest water. ’
The Situation at New Orleans.
New Orleans, April 17.—The weather
bureau expects a rise of 19 feet by April
20. This will not mean any danger to
the city, but water will cover the
wharfs and wet adjacent streets. The
railroads are already elevating their
tracks and platforms have been built,
but the steamboats complain that no
provision has been made for them. The
entire wharf front will probably have
to be rebuilt and raised.
The Louisiana line is still holding,
though rises of three inches and more a
day are quite common. It looks as if
the limit must come soon. A much
higher river will wash over many of the
banks, and in their present softened
condition they will be so badly soaked
that it will be a question whether they
will bear the weight. The flood wave
has about reached the Fifth district.
and if that and the Tensas pass muster
there is no reason why the levees be—
tween Baton Rouge and New Orleans
should not escape.
Critical at Davenport, Ia.
Davenport, Ia.,April 17.—A seven inch
rise has brought the waters of the Mis-
sissippi within six inches of the danger
line. The rising flood has invaded the
cellars of many jobbing houses, and the
levee is almost entirely under water.
Muscatine island, a great melon rais-
ing ground, is reported to be largely un—
der water. Rains continue, and the sit—
uation daily becomes more serious. In
the neighborhood of Burlington, 1a.,the
river is six miles wide and covers a wide
area of valuable bottom farm land in Il-
linois. The farmers there have given
up hope of getting their crops, and much
loss will result. The river is still rising.
., Drowned on Davis Island.
Vicksburg, April 17. — The refugees
who came from Davis island on the
government steamer John R. Meigs and
the steamer Atlanta report the drown-
ing of 11 persons, all colored, on Davis
island on TVednesday evening. Homer
Moore, Peter Clements and wife, and
Henry Garland were drowned on the
Hurricane plantation. The other seven
are reported to have been drowned on
other parts of the island, all women
and children from the Palmyra place.
The loss of stock on the island has
been very great. The steamer Florence
remains at the island to rescue people
and ferry stock over to the Louisiana
mainland.
Another Version.
Natchez, April 17. — It was thought
here that all the people on Davis is—
land had escaped after the break in the
levee occurred, but 15 bodies have been
found floating around the old Brierfleld
plantation, which was the homestead
of Jefferson Davis. The surviving in-
habitants are huddled in tents on top
of the levee. From appearances this
overflow will be worse than ever known
here.
American Arrested In lll’exico.
El Paso, Tex, April 17. —— hilagdalenrt'
Calderon, a war veteran and a member
of the Grand Army of the Republic,
was arrested in Juarez, Mexico, at the
instigation of Mexican Consul Malten
of this city charged with being a con-
spirator against the Mexican govern-
ment. Colonel Buford has wired the
state department. filing complaint and
askii g for a demand for release.
New Treaties For China. .
W‘ashington, April 17.—China is to
have a new set of treaties with the great
nations of the world, which. will in some
measure emancipate her from the oner—
ous restrictions she is new under and
enable her to adjust her own revenues
to the nation’s needs. Much of the cred-
it for negotiating these treaties is due to
Li Hung Chang.
MCinncnpolis “’ater Bonds.
St. Paul, April 17. —~ The legislature

apolis voted $600,600 in bonds for the ex—

WITH CONFIDENCE. -
That is the Way Norwalk Speaks, and
That is the Way Norwalk‘
People Act.
At first, there was doubt. That was
' but natural, for people had been disap‘
pointed many times. But first a man in
.‘v’orwalk spoke, then a woman in South
Norwalk, and .soon from all over both
places arcs-e the chorus of praises for C.
C. C , California Catarrh Cure. And
now people buy and use it in perfect con-
fidence ,that it will do what it claims;
that it will cure every form, every trace
of catarrh. Read what Mrs. I. F. Wil-
liamson, 24 Spring street, South Nor-
walk, says: “I got a bottle of California
Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store, for
my daughter Kitty, who has been
troubled quite badly with catarrh, and
she finds that it has helped her very
much. My sister has also used the medi-
cine'with most satisfactory results and
joins mein saying that it is a fine medi-
cine.” .
Catarrh in its fully developed forms is
a hideous disease, involving decay, filth
and actual rottendess, with most offensive
odors 1n the very seat of the organs of
taste and smell; firmly fixed there, it be-
gins to attack the membrane lining of the
passages leading to the lungs or the
stomach; resulting either in consumption,
or what is often called dyspepsia. It is
really catarrh of the stomach, intestines,
liver, kidneys and various internal pas-
sages. California Catarrh Cure will cure
all forms of catarrh, and will check even
incipient consumption. All dealers, 50
cents, three times as much, one dollar.
