The Proposal 70 Turkey and Greece.
A dispatch from Paris says: The Havas Agen-
cy issues an apparently semi-ofcial letter, stat
ing that Austria, having taken the initiative of
drafting theproposal to Turkey and Greece, all
the powers accepted it, and it was to be pre-
sented at Athens on the 5th inst. Three of its
stipulations- that Greece shall acquire
Fort Puenta; that the fertilization of Prsvasa
be raised, and that the navigation of the Bay of
Arta be free-do not form part of the Portes
offer, and the decision of the powers must,
therefore, be communicated to the Porte. The
note is 80 decided and dwells 80 clearly on the
impossibility of further concessions, that it
plainly shows Greece the futility of objecting
to it. The present Greek Minister will probably
resign, and Delyannis, formerly Minister of
Foreign Affairs and Greek Plenipotentiary at
the Berlin Congress, will form new Ministry
Delyannis will be more disposed to agree to the
Cancellation, which would be impossible for Pre-
misr Coumoundouros or Tricoupis.

Opposed to High Beuts.

The recent advance in rents at Chicago is
meeting a determined remonstrance on the
part of laboring men. At meeting they
passed resolutions denouncing the advance in
rents, which they say already has absorbed
the principal portion of the fruit of the work
ingmen's industry, and stated that the work
ingmen, having through the dreary winter
paid out their hard earned wages for fuel at
three times it nominal value, for rotten eggs,
tough chickens, diseased meat, tallow butter,
sand sugar, adulterated and poisonous bread,
tea, coffee, ETC., were unable to pay increased
rents for places to live in which were unfit for
the lower animals. The resolutions called the
attention of reformcrs and philanthropists to
the fact that great masses of working people
in that city are already crowded together in
small frame houses or shanties, and in dilapi-
the plan on paper calls for bridge 800 feet
above the Allegheny River, the highest in the
country. The supposed '1etter of instruc-
ions" to engineers orders them to "avoid all
curves and gradients" Such a road, it if
stated, would be $50 miles shorter than any
other roads, "and would bring Chicago four
teen hours nearer to New York" To reduce
the time that number of hours, it would be nee
essary to reduce the time 500 miles. Officers
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company say the
whole scheme is as ridiculous as railroad to
the moon, and has nothing whatever in it.
