LONDON, Jan. 2.-There is great
excitement here to-day, caused by
news just received from Crete that
o number of Christian families yes
terday attempted to enter Retimo,
small town on the north coast,
but were prevented by the Turkish
populace, who assaulted them,
men, women and children. After
driving the Christians back, the
Turks closed the gates of the town
anu then turned upon the British
Vice Consul, threatening his life
and pursuing him with knives un.
til he found friendly shelter in the
house of q brother Consul. Turk
ish soldiers quietly stood by during
these outrages, not once attempt
ing to stop the disturbances. The
British IRON clad Rupert arrived at
Athens yesterday and sailed last
night for Retimo. 1t is believed
here that England will take tenn
porary possession of the Island,
with view to preventing a repeti-
ton of these outrages.

the purpose of checking the sup

Cabinet. It was reported in Lon
don last night that the King of
Italy, in addressing tho members
of the Italian Parliament at the
New Years reception, made q
threatening speech which was in
terpreted here as directed against
Turkey or England. The Times s
Rome special merely says: "rhe
King alluded to the gravity OF the
present state OF Europe and eX-
pressed his earnest desire to con-
tribute to peace. He recon m ended
concord" Another Rome dispatch
says: "rhe King recommended the
Deputies to preserve concord and
expressed his hopes that they
would take care that the army
wanted for nothing, as he saw q
stormy horizon around and il
might be necessary for Italy,
which is DESTROYS for peace, to
make herself not only respected
but feared, in case any power
should wish to consult its own in
