It has been repeatedly stated that the powers would not consent to a plebiscite in Crete to decide whether an autonomous Government should be estab- lished or the island annexed to Greece, and consequently it is believed it will be impossible.that Greece should now make such praposals. Furthermore, the powers have decided that the Greek troops must leave Creie before the Turkish forces, and it is to compel compliance with these demands that the blockade of the island bas been commenced.

LONDON, Exc., March 16. — In the House of Commons tiis morning A. J. Balfour, First Lord of tae Treasury, made the following announcement on behalf of tlhie Governm nt: ““We have to-day addressed a communi- cation to the powers in regard to Greece, butit is impossible either to state the terms of the communication or to encour- age debate on the subjeet.” Lord Kimberley asked that the Govern- ment make a further and more explicit statement in rega to the Cretan situa- tion, but Lord bury referred him to the admirable speeches delivered by Foreign Minister Hanotaux and-Premier Meline in the Frencn Chamber of Deputies yesterday and the sentiments expressed, in which he (Lord Salisbury) said he heartily concurred. Lord Kimbteriey—But I should prefer to have a statentent of Great Britain's policy by Great Britain’s Ministers. Lord Salisbury—1Ihe jolicy of the puw- ers was explained in the speeches of Han- otaux and Meline. 1f I have not used any ‘brilliant language it is my misfortune and my fault. In the lobbies of the House the remarks of Lord Salisbury are regarded as indi a- tions of an aim on the part of the Premier to secure a closer entente with France shd also indicative that England and Fraice are more closely united with one anotjer inan understanding in regard to Créte than they are with the other powers. —_—— M0 BLOCK Wispaickes From Canea day Nothing of Itx Operation. LONDON, March 16.—Some doubt exists us to whether or not the biockadz of Crete has actualiy commenced, notwi h- standing the statément of Prime Minisler Salisbury in the House of Lords that or- ders had been given to put the blockzde into operation at once. The spectal dis- patches sent irom Canea to-day make éno mention of the ports having been o:<§:k- aded by the warships of the powers. A dispaten from Canea to a news agelicy says that the foreign admirals have not yet proclaimed tue blockade. The statements received from Vienna this afternoon saying that the blockade began to-day was reaflirmed this even- ihe but it is not officiul and is likely to be premature.

SR TIP REFUSED TO DIE, Four Ounces of Poinon Fail to Kill an Unmanageable Elephant. BRIDGEPORT, Ci , March 16— About 100 persons gathered at the winter quarters of the Barney & Bailey circus here yesterday to see an elephant killed. Every arranzement had been made to do the killing expeditiously, and the man who aicted a successful execution, but the ele- phant till lives. The elephant that was to be killed is 11 feet high ana weighs three and a half tons. He has been with the show twenty years and 1s vaiue | 2t §6000. The ivory in bis tusks alone is estimated to be worth The elephant developed a bad tem- per recently and has become a burden to the show people. He could not be kept safely with the other elephants and the lives of his keepers have been in almost daily danger.

They have never | been equaled by an American, if Bret | Harte is excepted. Apart from his | literary genius, Colonel Hay is a man of affairs. He been secretary at Paris and Madrid. He was charge d’affaires at Vienna, and he was President Lincoln’s | secretary. He is learned, polished, deep, familiar with the strange ways and mouth- fiiling words of diplomacy, and is at ease 2 any kind of company. Colonel Hay is 59 years old, and has long been a resident of Washington, where his house is one of | the most hospiteble. It was here that ne | wrote his ““Lufe of Lincoln,” which is re- | garded as oue of the most Vainable of the contributions to the literature of the Unitea States. Colonel Hay is recognized as a fine orator. General Horace Porter of New York, the United States Embassador to Paris, got his title in the Union army, in which he was a brigadier. Trained for a soldier, he lived the life of a soldier and was an officer of the army until 1873, when he retired. He was a warm personal friend of General Grant as soldier and President, and was | Grant’srepresentative at banquets or other affairs where oratory was expected of the prominent guests. This was before Grant became a public speaker himself. General Porter thus became one of the most | brilliant talkers in America, and now at 70 | be may be said to be one still. When he re- tired from the army he became vice-presi- dent of the Pullman Palace Car Company and holds the office yet. Army men— good army men—always maka railroad men, and General Porter is no exception to that rule. For a guarter of a century be has occapied important positions in many of the great raiiroads. He is| scholarly, refined, eloguent, wilty and thoroughly equipped to fi'l the important post in France for which he has been se- lected. General Porter is one of the most entertaining after-dinner speakers in America, another good reason why he will o well abroad. THEOSOPHY UNDEAR FIRE.

Democrats Want Time to Ex- amine the Bill Before It Is Reported. Republicans Think That Two Weeks Should Su.fice for Debate in the Heuse. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 16.—The new tariff bill was considered to-day by the Ways and Means Committee. The session lasted three hours. The sugges- tion that the bill be reported on Thursday met with strong opposition from the mi- nority. The Democrats insisted that they only desired time in which to examine the measure, The hill will probably be re- ported Th'u rsday. Dolliver stated in reference to the agri- cultural schedule that the changes were more in form than in substance. The duty on animals was less than the Mec- Kinley rate. So far as oranges were con- cerned, the duty was assessed by the | pound instead of by bu.k, in order to secure a more equitable adjustment in the collection of the duty. The increased rate on broken rice was made to cover the evasion of the present law. Chiccory root, hitherto free, was now dutiable at 3 cents a pound, inusmuch as the industry | had veen recent!y established in the West of preparing it as a substitute for coffee. Payne was asked as to the amount of revenue the substitute schedule would produce. He could not say, bus thought the increase would be about $16,000,000. Robinson of Lounisiana estimated the revenue from sugar to be $50,000,000. It was developed incidentally that the tariff on 95 per cent of the sugar importa- tions will yield an ad valorem duty of 72 per eent. It was decided at the aiternoon meeting of the committee that an adjournment | should be taken from this evening until 10 o'clock Thuraday morning. The pur- pose of this was to permit the Democratic memters to study the bill and to prepare any amendments which they pronose offering when the committee reassembles, The minority wiil to-morrow afternoon meet at the Capitol and decide upon the line of policy to be pursued by them in committee and in the House. It is stili undecided if the biil shall be reported Tbursdey, but the Democratic members believe this to be the intention ot tge majority. The understanding is that if the biil be reported Thursday it will be at once taken up_for consideration without waiting for the Democratic minor- ity to report. Some o1 the Republican members think two weeks should suffice for debating the measure in the House. The liquor schedule was the first to be considered this aiternoon.

The dose to be given Tip was cyanide of potassium. ~ Wallace brought up a satchel filled with the poi- son. Tip had been chained securely in one corner of the elephant-house. Double chains bad been fastened to his legs and tusks, as it was feared that in his death struggles he might bréak loose, All other elepnants were taken out of the house at 12:30 and Tip became the center of interest. Wallace put two hand- fuls of the poison capsules ina pail of mush. They had been coated with bees- | wax in grder that their effect might be slow and easily observed. The mush was given to Tip and the crowd stood about in breathless expectation. Mauny looked to see the huge body fall instantly to the ground. -~ Others thought Tip might make a dash for the door. But Tip disappointed them all. ' He just drank up the mush and avparentiy spat outall of the capsnles. Wallace insisted that Tip had eaten some of the carsules and the spectators retained their waiting Then apples were split open and capsules inserted in them. Tip took all these voraciously, but invariably placed the crunched fragments of the caps sules on the ground with his trunk. ‘Wallace kept the spirits of the erowd up by asserting that in the nnimal’s stomach there were two ounces of .poison and death would be a matter of only a few minutes. But the minutes wore into hours, and still the elephant stood there with the crowd watching him. More cap- sules were fed to the elephant, this time in molas:es, but still the crowd waited in vain. Tip’s stomach, Wallace aseerted, now contained more than four ounces of poison. One ounce, he predicted, would kill him. For sx hours the visitors watched that elephant, and for 'six hours Tip only biinked and looked sleepy. Toward the end of the afternoon he brightened up visibly, despite the doses which had . been administered to him. with this schedule’s preparation, ex- plained its provisions. He showed how the dutv on brandy had been increased from $1 80 to $2 50 & gallon, and pointed to tbe advantages the wine-producers of France would gain if that Government should give this country a corresponding advantage on our exports, He showed that the rates in the liguor scheduie were substantially a return to those in the Mc- Kinley law. Wieeler of Alabama referred to the enormous profits which the manufacturers of a certain grade of liquors enjoy in this country owing %0 the exce-sive protection which enables them to sell a cheap article at enormous profit, The prese: tvg alty for the.e practices is a fine, but Wheeler contended that a heavy punishment by imprisonment should also be added, as the fine in itself was not a sufficient deter- rent. His suggestion that the bill be amended in this particular was not adopted, although = several others ex- vessed their belief that it was sound in Jrinciple. Hopkins of Illinois, who explained the provisions of the woolen schedule, de- tailed at some length the reason why Bag- dad wool, China jamb's wool, Castle Branca, Acrianople skin wool or butchers’ wool, such as have been - heretofore im- ported into the United States from Ar- gentina, Australia, Russia, Egoyt, Mo- rocco and other countries, and which for many years have been classified as woois of the third class, were placed in class one. They were, he continued, found to be of a superior quality, and ir many re- spects equal to the best grade of ‘Austral- ian wool and properly subjéct to the duty of 11 cents a pound which had been placed upon them. & Russell was next called upon to explain the silk and paper schedules, which he did in extenso.

Spear, Juckson and Kowaisky Will Be Prev.ded For, but De Young's Chances Are Stim. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 16.—It seems to be setiled that Joe Spear will be appointed Collector of Customs at San Francisco. Major McKinley feels prateful to Mr. Spear for orzanizing McKinley clubs more than two years ago. He regards Mr. Spear as a safe business man, and in no sense a politician. Mr. Spear has engaged rooms at the Shoreham, and will remain here for several weeks. Colonel Jobn P. Jackson will be taken care of by Senator Perkins. He may be made Postmaster when McCoppin’s term expires, It is the general impression that M. H. de Young will fail in his ambition to be appointed £mbassador to Italy. Some of the California Republicans are making a strong fight sgainst him., William, F.

A visit of Secretary Sherman 1o the Capitol this afternoon was entirely unex- | pected, and the first that was known of | his visit was wien, after his luncheon, a messenger notified Chairman Davis that Mr. Sherman was at the commitiee-room. An impromptu meeting was called, and for an hour the committee and the new Becrotary of State conferred about our | relations with other powers. | Mr. Sherman was naturally anxious to know what headway had been made with | & the arbitration treaty, and whken he was told that it was expected to make a favor- | able report to-morrow the Secretary ex- | pressei his pieasure. It is well known that President McKinley and his Secre- tary subscribe to the treaty and the pur- poses | r which it was negotiated, but be- lieve it should be amended in several par- | ticulars. There was also considerable discussion reistive to the construction of the Nic- araguan Canal, a question which is bound 1o come prominently to the front during this Congress. Mr. Sherman is favorable to this project, but bas taken the gronnd in hig speechies in the Senate that'the | canal should be constructed through the instrumentality of the United S:ates alone, rather than through the agency of a private corporation, aided and assistea by this Government in the matter of bonds.

Allen of Nebraska Alone Intro- duces a Batch of Forty. Frye Ridicu es the Operation of the Civil Servic: Rules in Cer- tain Cises WASHINGTON, D. C., March 16.—In the Senate {o-day one pension bill was passed, and 438 bills, public and private, were introduced and referred. There was hardly one of them which had not been on the calendar or on committee files in the last Congress, among them being bills by Allen (Pop.) of Nebrasks directing the foreclosure of the lien on the Union Pa- cific Railroad; to prevent over-capitaliza- tion of companies doing an interstate carrymg trade; to prevent professional lobbying; to preserve the purity of Na- tional legislation and to increase the circulating medium. Altogether there were some forty bills introduced by Allen, most of them relics of the last Congress. A bill ro facilitate the construction and maintenance of telegraphic communica- tion between the United States, the Ha- waiian Islands, Japan and Austraiia was introduced by Chandler on behalf of Hale (R.) of Maine; also a bill to provide for the twelith and subsequent censuses . A bill for a Government telegraph was introduced by Kyie (Pop.) of South Dakota, and one to amend the immigra- tion laws by Lodge (R.) of Massachusetts. A bill for the relief of William J. Bryan, when its tille was read, caused a general laugh. A Dbill to increase all pansion allow- ances was introduced by Thurston (R.) of Nevraska. A new Nicaraguan canal bill was intro- diiced by Morgan (D.) of Alabama; also a bill to create a board of trusieesof the Union Pacific and Central Pacific Railway companies and to fund their debts; aiso a joint resolution declaring the Bulwer- Clayton treaty abrogated. Allison (R.) of Iows, in gentle remon- strance against the passage of one pension bili ($50 2 month to the widow of Briga- dier-General John P, S.evenson), gug- ested that its passage to-day would not expedite its becoming a law, and when Vest (D.) of Missouri express=d his beliet that 1t would, and that he could getac- tion on 1t in the House, the Iowa Senator looked incredulous and expressed his great admiration for the Missouri Sen- ator’s confidence. A resolntion was offered by Frye (R.) of Maine calling for copies of all riders, cir- culars of instructions and all correspond- ence with engineer officers in charge of public works relative to the application of the civil service rules to tne operation of works in charge of the engineer depart- ment. He remarked, in an auaibie whis- per, that he wanted.to get, rid of civil service, which wus “‘an awrui ou:rage.’” “Is that a step,” Cockrell (D.) of Mis souri asked, *‘in the direction of abolish- my civil service law 2" “I regard it,” Frye replied, favor of abolishing civil ser 1ar as they relate to ihe employment of laborers and surveyors ior the construc- tion of pubiic works.” “Their employment by contractors or the army: engineers?”’ Hawley (R.). of Connecticut inquired. “By the engineers,” Frye replied. *“It issimply this: The civil service rules have been extended by the President over the employment of all manner of servants through the engineer department of the Government, 8o that if an officer way up the Columbia River wants o hire a la- borer for a piece of work the laborer must hsve a certiticate from the civil service commission and soin the case of a sur- veyor who may be wanted for twoor three days. Iuis interfering with all the im- provements of rivers and harbors and is absolutely absurd and stupid.” The resolution was agreea to. ‘The Senate spent over twc hours in_discussion of the creden:‘als of John A.

An effort was made by Pasco’(D.) of Florida to have Henderson adulitted to the sest, but it was resisted on both sides of jhe chamber as inconsistent ith the action of the Senate a few years ago in re- using seats to appointeesof the Governors of Wyoming, Montana and Washington. Finally Pasco yielded and permitted the matter to be relerred—as were like cases this session from Kentucky and Cregon— to the Committee on Privileges and E.ec- tions.
