Permission Had Been Given the Christians to Leave Akrotiri. Strange and Heartless Tactics of the Admirals Who Are Befriending Mo:lems. CANEA, CretE, April3.—The insurgents in the hills about the town of Akrotiri on the peninsulaof that name recently asked the foreign admirals for permission to leave their positions, as they desired to leave the peninsula. The authorization was granted, and to-day the insurgents, with their families, descended from the hills, driving their cattle before them and not suspecting any danger. They had scarcely reached the lower 7000 Bashi Bazouks sud- denly fired upon them at a range of only 220 yards. The Bashi Bazouks had emerged from Canea last evening and made their way to the neighborhood of the insurgent position, having apparently received information that the Christians were about to evacuate the peninsula. The Turkish force consisted mainly of refugees who had been brought to Canea from Selino by Sir Alfred Biliotti, the British Consul here. ‘After their arrival in Canea they had been armed by the Governor in defiance of the promises that had been made to the admirais. Their arms had been taken from them when they were compelled to evacuate Selino, but they experienced not the slightest difficulty in procuring other weapons by direction of the Governor. The insurgents were armed, and they soon recovered from the surprise occa- sioned by the sudden attack of the Bashi Bazouks. They then returned the fire, whereupon the latter returned to Canea. As they aporoached the town they quietly deposited their arms and ammuni- tion in places where they would not be | Part of the| weapons were placed in houses on the out- | seen by the foreigners here. skirts, while the remainder were deposited in the Majendies barracks. The international forces ashore did not take any measures to prevent the collision and the warships in Suda Bay did not fire & shot to check the Bashi Bazouks. The Mussulmans lost heavily in the en- gagements. Fifty dead and wounded were brought to Canea. Some of the Mos- lems, presumably not refugees, attempted to bring their arms into town, but they were stopped at the gates or fortified lines by Italian soldiers and disarmed by the .. officers of the gendarmerie. The Mussulmans are very much in- censed by this action and are assembling in great numbers at Spiazzia. It is stated this evening that British sailors were landed on the peninsula os- tensibly to restrain the Bashi Bazouks, | vut only when it was too late to do any- thing. PARIS, Fraxce, April 3.—In the Cham- ber of Deputies to-day M. Gautier de Clag- ney interpsilated the Government regard- ing the Cretan situation. M. Hanotaux, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, replying to the interpellation, de- clared that it ‘was impossible to reproach the Government for the action they had taken in the matter. He added that it was not likely that a conflict would occur at present on the Macedonia frontier. The powers were considering the question of eventually blockading the ports of Greece. Continuing, M. Hanotaux stated that there was nothing specially disquieting in the situation. It was hoped that councils of wisdom would prevail with time. M. Cochin asked the Government for in- formation regarding the massacres at Sivas and Tokat in Anatolis, where a number of Armenians were killed by Turks and Kurds. He also desired to know why coercion had not been applied to the Buitdn to compel him to obey the demands of the powers. M. Hanotaux replied that a message had been telegraphed on March 16 to M. Cam- bon, the French Embassador at Constan- tinople, directing him to make representa- tion to the Sultan as to the unsatisfactory state of affairs. M. Hanotaux further said that in consequence of wrongful acts the . Milltary Governor of Adana had been re- called by the Porte and a Christian ap- pointed in his stead. With reference to the application of co- ercion M. Hanotaux said the powers had decided to exact the execution of the re- forms that bad been demanded and which had been promised by the Sultan. Europe, he said in conclusion, might count upon the firmness of the Embassadors at Con- stantinople insisting upon the execution NDON, Exa., April 8.—Several of the correspondents of London newspapers telegrapuing from Canea represent that the foreign admirals were seriously blsmable for.the fighting that occurred between the insurgents and Turkish ir- regular troops in the peninsula of Akro- tirl, They state that Admiral Canevaro, the Italian naval officer who is in command of the combined fleets of the powers, had given his assent to the request of the in- surgents that they be allowed to leave the peninsula ana pass through Canea to the interior of the island. They evidentiy trusted that the admiral would give them safe passage, but it seems that no measures were taken to protect them, When the aimirals learned that the - Bashi-bazouks were barring the way of the Christians they ordered that detachments of sailors and marines be sent to disarm them and compel them to return to Uanes, but it was then too late for the detach- ments to carry out their orders. It does neét appesr why the foreign warships did - mot shell the bashi bazouks. e GREEK PATRIOTS DEPART. One Hundred and Five Warriors to Fight for King George. NBEW YORK, N.Y., Avril 3.—Another equad of Greek patriots sailed for their Lome country to fight the Turks to-day. There were 105 in the party. They gath- ered in front of the Partheon restaurant, at 28 Roosevelt street, and at 9 o’clock the start was made for the French line pier, where they boarded the La Touraine. As the warriors ascended the gangplank they were embraced and kissed by many in the throng. No addresses were made, they will pa: | butin each eye tnere shone a fire which spoke wonders.

C., April 3.—Sec- retary Sherman made a statement to-day of importance to Americans who are active in Cuban matters. When asked abont the reported intention of Julio San- xuilly, who arrived at Jacksonville, Fla., with aids to go to Cuba, he replied: { *“Idon’t believe he will go. If he should | be so foolish he will have to take bis life into his own hands. We should never in- terfere in his behalf again, but would bave to let things take their course. 1 have his written pledge not to teke an active part in the insurrection in any way. So has Spain, and they could kill him without ceremony. such a fool The pledge referred to was made by San- guilly in January just before his pardon by the Queen Regent oi Spain and was signed voluntarily in Spanish and Eng- lish and handed to Consul-General Lee. The Spanish copy went to the Spanish authorities and the one in English is now on Secretary Sherman’s desk. It reads: 1, Julio Sanguilly, an American citizen con- fined at Cabanas Fortress, Havena, do hereby sacredly atirm to the United States and to Spain thatif I am released by pardon of the latter Government 1 will leave and remain away from Cuba, and will not aid directly or indirectly the present insurrection against the government of Spain, and I hereby promise that should I doso at any time I will not claim the protection of the United States Govern- ment. 1 certfy that this pledge s given of my own free will and without compulsion on the part of any one. JULIO SANGUILLY. Witnesses: Ernesto Fouseca, Donnel Rock- well 1f Sanguilly makes any attempt to carry out his reported intention of leaving for to stop him unless he goes with an armed expedition, but grave fears are expressed at the State Department that the depar- ture of Sanguilly at this time might seal the fate of other Americans imprisoned in Cuba where pardon by the Queen Regent under similar conditions is now being sought. e IN BEHALF OF RIVERA, Seels to Obtain Clemency for the Cuban Goneral, WASBINGTON, D. C., April 3.—Ma- hany (R.) of New York to-day presented the following resolution in the He Secretary of State beand ed, if such action in his esti- inconsistent with public policy, to represent to the Government of Spain the profound sense of satisiaction with which the people of the United States wonld view ine extension of clemency as regards tho Temission of & death sentence in the case of General Ruiz Rivera. BIG FIRE AT CHATTANOOGA. Mahany Resolved, That Lives Lost in the Flames and Property Worth Half a Million Dollars Destroyed, CINCINNATI, Onro, April 3.—A special to the Scripps-McRae Press from Chatta- nooga gives an account of a disastrous fire that occurred in that city at an early hour this morning, when the Richardson build- ing, the largest building in the city, was totally destroyed. The fire was discovered by the watch- man, who tried to put it out without help, but it proved to be beyond him and he turned in an alarm. The delay, however, proved to be disastrous, for the flames spread rapidly, and by the time the Fire | Department had arrived the building was doomed. A gallant but unsuccessful fight was made, but the flames steadily advanced until the whole building was gutied. For a while 1t seemed as il e fire would spread to the adjoining buildings, and after it was seen that the Richardson block was doomed the firemen devoted all their energies to keeping the fire in the building in which it started. - In this they were not wholly successful. Some of the neighboring structures were scorched, and the small building adjoin- ing was destroyed. A number of persons were asleep in the building when the fire broke out. The delay of the watchman, which gave the fire great nemn{, proved fatal to two of the Fodgeu and all the others had narrow escapes. S. M. Patton, a wealthy and prominent architect of the city, was burned to death in his bed. The most thrilling incident during the fire was the attempted escape and death of Boyd Ewing, one of the wealthiest citizens of Chattanooga. After the flames had spread 80 8s to prevent escape by the stairways two men appeared at one of the windows of the sixth story. They were recognized as Boyd Ewing and Richard- son, the owners of the building. The only hope uf escape the men had was to reach the fire-escape near the win- dow. Ewing climbed out first, and, helped by Richardson, had almost reached safety, when he shipped and fell. For an instant Richardson held him and then he fell, striking the pavement with a sicken- ing thud. He was dead when reached. hardson succeeded in escaping witaout injury. he loss on the building and contents was about $500,000, about two-thirds cov- cred by insurance. MaIlL BOX ROBB S CAUGHT. Members of a Dangerous Gang Behind the Bars at Chicago. CHICAGO, ILL., April 8.—A dangerous gang which has for three months kept the Chicago postal authorities excited and anxious by the robbery of mail box con- tents is now believed to be under lock and key, the last arrest, that of Hiram L. Leach, being made to-day by Postal In- spector Stuart in a West Bide saloon, Scores of checks mailed by business men were taken from the stolen letters, and in many instances the checks were cashed by innocent persons. The gang is supposed 1o have worked with duplicate keys to the mail boxes,as the locks of none were broken. It is supposed the robbers re- turned those letters they found did not contain checks. Eight other members of the gang have been caught, most of them while in the act of trying to cash large checks at banks where they were o payable. —_— Argentine May Trade Here. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aoril 3—The Argentine Government, which has hitber- to secured proposals abroad for Govern- ment contracts exclusively through its legation at London, has given encourage- ment to Minister Buchanan in his efforts to have the legation at Washington put on an equal footing with that of London in this ect, thereby enabling Ameri- can manufacturers to compste for all sup- Eliu and work. While this desideratum as not yet been put into operation, Mr, Buchanan reports to the State Department that the Argentine Government has re- ceived his suggestion very graciously, and there are reasons to think that when the next opvortunity is offered for letting con- tracts ample notice will be given in the United States. el oo To Summer at Sunapee Lake.

At East St. Louis the Situation Is Becoming Exceedingly Serious. Along the Levee Districts in the South Thousands Continue to Battle for Life. ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 3.—The river at this point continues to rise and at 6. M. stood at 28.8 fest above low-water mark. All the river front is under water, except ot to Walnut. Hundreds of laborers are em- ployed in carrying perishable goods from the levee warehouses to higher ground. The stretch of low ground, beginning at Carr street and running north four miles to Chain of Rocks and two miles wide, is under water. Lumber yards in the vicin- ity are in danger of being swept clean. Losses have been materially reduced by the warnings sent out by the Government Weather Bureau. Telegraphic reports to the Weather Bureau here have come to- day from points in this district, and re- port an increase in the volume of the river flood due to heavy rains of the past twenty-four hours. The Osage and Gasconade rivers, rising in the Ozark Mountains and subject to rapid and extreme fluctuations, had to- day overflowed their banks and were re- vorted rising. The feeling of security in East St. Louls is giving way to anxiety. Thetr only reliance is placed in the thirty- six-foot roadbeds of the railroads. But Cahokia Creek, which cleaves the ity at about its central longitude, is to be reckoned with. Back water from the river can find an entrance behind the railroads through the Cahokia, and all the records of the 1893 flood will be re- peated. An evening journal prints numer- ous telegrams from points in Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas and Nebraska, and all note rising rivers since Friday morning. Railroad traffic bere is not satisfactory, but is not paralyzed. Reports received to-day from points as far north as Dubugue are of a very gloomy character and state that the flood situa- tion is constantly growing worse and more threatening. All trains running south on the east side of the river have been abandoned, the tracks having been either washed out or s0 greatly softened as to be dan- gerous. The reports from up the Missouri are equally disheartening. From Jefferson City comes news that large tracts of the lowlands in that part of ths State are under water, and as all the tributaries of the river are full to overflowing and are ouring great volumes of water into the main stream it is predicted that the worst of the trouble is yet to come. MEMPHIS, TeNN., April 3.—Matters are becoming very serious in the neigh- borhood of Austin, a few miles south of here and just beyond the Mississippi line. The niver is so high that the levee is in the greatest danger. If it should break five counties would be flooded and an im- mense amount of damage done. The weather is dark and gloomy and a fine rain is falling, which still further de- presses the people. News from up the river gives no encouragement of better times in the pear future. Everything pos- sible has been done and is being aone to strengthen the levees. The great danger now is that the levees will be cut by people on the other side of the river. Armed men sre patrolling them night and day to prevent cutting, and they open fire on every one approach- ing the levee, Last night two men were killed at differ- ent points along the river bank. They had crossed the river from the Arkansas side in boats with the intention of blowing up the levees and thereby lessening the pressure on their own side. A second man 1n one of the boats jumped overboard when the guards opened fire a nd started to swim to the western bank, but was drowned, for no man can swim the Mis- sissippi River at that point in the present condition of the stream. That no mistake was made as to the character of the men was shown by the discovery of a can of dynamite in each boat, evidently intended to be used in making a break. Bo far it has been possible to guard the levees, but any night some one may suc- ceed in landing unobserved in the dark and blowing up the levee. Consequently the people are kept in a condition of nervous tension. SI0UX CITY, Iowa., April 3.—The rise in’the Missouri River by the backing up of tributary streams is again making trouble near here. Local' officials of the Omaha and Milwaukee roads were notified to-day that washouts are occurring everywhere and bridges and culverts constantly going out. On’ the Milwaukee, communication be- tween Sioux City and Milchell is at an end, the track between West Field and Elk Point is missing and all repairs made since the recent floods destroyed. Nebraska agents of the Pacific Short Line report their track a quagmire and all streams bank full or overflowing. From the southern part of the county it is an- nounced the Little Sioux is again flooding the bottoms. The Floyd is bank full and threatens to repeat the mischief of a fort- night ago, in Sioux City. It is raining hard and all streams are still rising. HURON, 8. D., April 3.—Two inches of rain has fallen here the past forty-eight hours and 1t is still coming down in tor- rents. There is more water in sight here than at any time since the foundation of the city. There is water everywhere. Bridges are torn out and thousands of acres of lowlands are inundated. The Jim River, usually only a few feet wide, is over half a mile wide to-night at the foot of “Third street. Treins on the Chicago and Northwestern road east and south are be- ing operated without interruption, but those west and north have been aban- doned, Immense quantities of mail and freight: for those directions have accumnu- lated here. For a New News Service. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 3.—The publisters of a large number of newspa- pers met at the Astor House this after- noon for the purpose of forming a news association to be controlled terporarily by the “Xublishers’ rress Anoemlon.”l The purpose of the new organization is to furnish a general news service by leased wire or otherwise. T. J. Keenan Jr. of the Pittsbupg Press was chairman of the meeting. PR FATHER CORCORAN'S ESTATE. Will of the Well-Known Priest to Be *Contested by Danis! and Hannah Corcoran. BOSTON, Mass,, April 8.—In the Suf- folk County Probate Court to-day were filed notices of objections to the will of the late Rev. William J. Corcoron, for twenty years rector of St. Vincent’s Cath- olic Church'at South Boston, by his uncle Daniel and his sunt Johanna or Hannah Corcoran of San Francisco, his only next of kin and heirs at law. They do not give the grounds on which they contest. Father Corcoran died a month ago, leaving from $25,000 to $35,000 in personal proverty and real estate, of which the contestants were given each $100, and the bulk went to charity, mainly for the establishment of a non-sectarian home for invalids, to be run in connection with Carney Hospital. His bequeat for this included his mag- nificent county seat at Dedham. The ex- ecutors of the will say they do not know the contestants or their grounds, and promise a bard legal fight. It is under- stood that General Pawrick A. Coilins, now Consul-General at London, will look out for Carney Hospital’s interest on his return. —_———— WRBRY FRED GRANT REFUSED, More Salary in Police Commissiomer Than Assistant War Secretary. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 3 —Colonel Fred Grant’s friends explain his refusal to enter the War Department by pointing out that the salary of the place is $500 less than the colonel is now receiving as Police Commissioner. As his expenses in Washington would bs greater than here, he could hardly afford to make the change. Itis known that Colonel Grant desired his old place as Minister to Austria, which has been given to Charlemagne Tower of Pennsylyania. Senator Platt, on behalf of the State organization, tried to secure this appointment for him, Colonel Grant bas not concealed his desire to go back to Vienna, where he has many friends, and it is understood that the appointment of another to the place is a disappointment 1o him. He will continue in his present office, now that the Greater New York police bill has been laid aside until the new adminis- tration comes in, and it is said he is as- sured of being one of the Commissioners when the new board is formed. 1f he does not take this office some otherequally good will be provided for him in recogni- uion of his services. The regulars have so far obtained very little from the sdministration. They did not urge Andrew G. White or General Horace Porter, who have received the two foreign missions given to New York. co b 70 REACH A CRISIS, Affairs in the Ranks of the Theosophists Complicated. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 3.—Affairs in the ranks of theosopuists of this city and of the entire country as well will reach a crisis to-morrow night, when Mrs. Kath- erine A, Tingley will return to New York. Mrs. Annie Besant has been here for several weeks delivering Sunday-night lectures at Chickering Hall. She bas been prominently identified with the Eng- lish branch of theosophists for years. S e and Mrs. Tingley are not on good terms. Up to date she has had clear sziling for these lectures on account of the absence of Mrs. Tingley. But this time it will be different. Mrs. Tingley and her band of around-the-world crusaders will arrive in New York to-morrow evening, and will lose no time in preparing for action. Ar- rangements have been made and invita- tions sent out for a reception for them in Madicon-square Garden Concert Hall at 8 P. M. to-morrow, the same time when Mrs, Besant will' lecture in Chickering Hall. Thus they throw down the gauntiet to their rival from across the sea, and will make every effort to draw theosophists away from Mrs. Besant's lecture to their own reception. The question now puzzling the theoso- phists of this city is where to go to-mor- row night—to Mrs. Besant’s lecture or to Mrs. Tingley’s reception. St 10 BENEFIT SPECULATORS, Montreal Operatives Attempt to Influence the Wheat Market. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 8.—A Times special from Montreal says: A bold at- tempt is to be made to-night or Monday night to influence the Chicago wheat mar- ket for the benefit of Montreal speculators. The Metropolitan in last night's issue summed up the situation in a nutshell as follows: Tke statement that the syndicate of the local speculators who were in the Chicago pork deal a vear ago were going to give the shorts in May wheat a hustle in the Windy Bity is looked upon as merely a feeler intended to frighten the weaker shoriz into covering. There is plenty of long wheat held here which the holders would be only too glad to get rid of, and if it can be done by spreading rumors as to the way in which thuy are going to twist the short interest in Chicago they are not to be blamed for trying it; but it should be remembered that Chicago is a big city and a iong way off, and it 1s no easy mat- ter for Montreal speculators to work a suc- cesaful corner on the speculative fraternity of that bustling village. The scheme is to be worked as the pork scare was worked a year ago, by getting a certain newspaper man to offer a story to the Chicago papers to the effect that the syndicate here is to corner wheat and has already 8,000,000 bushels under contract. L YACHT KACING ASSOCIATION. Call Xssued for the Formation of @ New Organization. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 3.—The long talked-of National yacht racing associa- tion will svon take a definite form. A call was issued yesterday to all the yacht rac- ing associations in the country, as wall as to all prominent yacht clubs, not directly connected with such associations, asking them to send delegates to s con- vention or conference of yacht clubs and associations, which will be held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in this city on May 1. The general idea of the promoters of this yachting conference is to discuss and determine upon such action as may be advisable to effect theadoption of uniform racing rules by the various yacht racing organizations and clubs of the United Btates and Canada. From present indications the meeting will be largely attended, as assurances bave been received that over two-thirds of the yacht clubs in the United States and Canada will be represented. L S Btruck fer an Inorease of Wages. NEW YORK, N. Y., April 3.—The em- ployes of three silkmiils in West Ho- boken, Homestead and = Hackensack, owned by the Givernaud Brothers, went on strike this morning. One thousand persons went out and the mills were com- pelled to shut down. The employes wanted an increase of 30 per cent in wages. The company consented to" a rase of from 15 to gs percent, but the offer was refused. SRR The el lp Towa. NEW YORK, N.

Southern Pacific Men to Obey the Laws of the State. But the Measure Will Be Founght When It R aches the Upper House. FRANKFORT, Kr., House of Representatives passed the bill recently introduced by Representative Rice of Grayson County relating to cor- porations, the effect of which is to give the Attorney-General power to annul cor- porate ckarters by proceedings in court. The bill was originated at the Instance of Attorney-General Taylor and was passed by reason of the failure of a great | number of corporations to report and | April 3.—The tions chartered under the laws of Ken- | tucky, The bill is very short and states | that whenever any corporation doing busi- | ness in this State shall fail or refuse to | comply with the law goVerning such cor- porations, or shall violate the terms of the articles of such corporation, or wilfully do anything contrary thereto to warrant such action, the Attorney-General is here- by suthorized to bring suit in the fiscal court of the commonwealth, to revoke or annul the charter of the aforesaid corpora- tion. Attorney-General Taylor recently filed suit in the Franklin Circuit Court against a number of corporations for fines and penalties for failures to report. Among these was a suit against the Southern Pa- cific Railroad and for several hundrea thousand dollars. This corporation being a foreign company, and having practi- cally no tangible property in Kentucky upon which process conid be had should judgment be rendered acainst the com- pany, the Southern Pacific Company in the face of its repeated promise faled and continued to fail to report. The present luw provides only for pen- alties, and Attorney-General Taylor be- lieves this insufficient, and while he has no doubts of gaining the suits now pend- ing against the Southern Pacific and other corporations he thinks this is not enough power, and the remedy afforded in the act now vending will place the Southern Pa- cific at the mercy of the officers of the State, who will have tha life of the big company in jeopardy until they conform to tne law as other citizens.
