Roseberry ON Greece.

LONDON, May l1.-Earl Roseberry's dis
patch to the English diplomats in relation
to Greece says: Her course has encour-
friends In pa oxyem Of ire at the pos
sible enlarging Of a friendly christian
state, she rushed to arms and made herself
a menacing element in eastern affairs IL is
impossible 10 expect Turkey 10 remain
passive indefinitely. and the strenuous
appeals of the powers have alone main
tanned the pacific attitude of the Porte BY
exercising material pressure Great Britain
is adopting a course more friendly and
vastly more favorable 10 Greece than by
leaving her TO face a CO.. fict with Turkey. +"

Considerable debate then arose on an
amendment Of Mr. Plumbs, prohibiting

eminent and their families from accepting
free passes. and PROHIBITING railroad COM
panIes from giving them such passes on
reduced rates
70 this Mr.. Teller offered an amendment

The great value and efficacy OF
the United States Life Saving Ser
vice was never more clearly demon
strated than in its report for the
fiscal year just closed. According
to this showing there were more
diasters during the past year than
in any year since the service was
organized and fewer lives lost. The
number of disasters to vessels within
the field Of station operating during
the year was three hundred and
twenty-five. There we're on board
these vessels 2,726 persons, OF whom
2, 699 were saved and twenty seven
lost. The total value Of property
imperilled was sc, 502,135 OF this
amount s., 073,0 7S was saved, and
81, 1906 lost. The number OF
vessels lost was Lightweight. In
addition to the foregoing, there were
during the year 145 casualties to
smaller craft, such as sailboats,
etc., on which there were 348 per-
sons, SAG of whom were saved and
two lost. The assistance rendered
in saving vessels and cargoes was
greater than in any previous year,
402 vessels having been worked off
when stranded, repaired when dam
aged, piloted out Of dangerous
places and otherwise assisted by the
station crews. There were besides
224 instances where vessels running
into danger Of stranding were warn
ed off by the signals of the patrol;
most of them thus being probably
saved from partial or total destruc-
ton. The Investigations held in
each case of loss of life show that
there was no failure in duty on the
part of any of the life-saving crews,
aud that the twenty-nine persons
who persisted were entirely beyond
the reach of human aid. Since the
introduction of the present system
in 1871 to the present time the total
value of property saved is over $4O,-
600, 900, and the number of persons
rescued over $4,000.
