We hare yet had. Owing to the furious gale
it Is impossible to estimate the snowfall

it would average two feet. Probably twenty
inches is not all overestimatc, but certain it
is that serere as the past storms have been
the present fall is far i'll excess Of either OF
them. There is no sidewalk in the city

LONDON, March 19.-The Pull 1all Ga
zettc, in q leading article, says: "News from
the East is ominous OF war. Crete Is tts
maximum which the Turks offer to cede.
The cession of Crete and Thessaly is the
minimum which the Powers will accept
Unless means can be found to bring the
minimum rear the maximum tho .Gseess
will cross the frontier, and war will BE-
gin which may not close until it has spread
far beyond the limits Of the Ottoman En-
pire."
THE "sTASDARD
says: ave have good grounds for Saving
the Ambassadors will make proposals
that the Porte shall cede not only Crete.
but Thessaly, and perhaps strip of Epirus.
War is almost inevitable in consequence Of
the Indifferent attitude OF Austria and Ger
many. We have the best reasons to be-
lieve that the Powers have informally mott.
fed both Greece and Turkey that the latter
will not be permitted to send ships to
Greek waters"
