news from Gambia. They report that a
battle took place on the 14th of April
between the Cretans and the Turks,

claim the victory. Conflicts are said to
have taken place on the 11th, 18th, 18th
and 18th of April. The Turks 1t is said
have committed great outrages.

land and island, carrying ammunition

LONDON, May 2.-The cabinet crisis
monopolizes public attention. It Is
thought thati II the measures which are
in effect approved by both parties,
are not opposed by the Liberals, the
present cabinet will not resign or dis
solve Parliament until an appeal can
be made to the new constituencies.
The Times of to-day editorially re-
commends this course.
LONDON, May SIT is said to-day
that Prime Minister D'Israeli, rendered
his resignation yesterday, but it was
not accepted.
