Fiahtina on the Greek Frontier.

LONDON, May 23.-Advices received here
say that severe engagements are taking
place on the Greek frontier between Turk
ish and Greek troops. The fighting is in
termittent and extends along the frontier
for distance of fifteen miles. The heavi-
est fighting is at Turnova Many have
been wounded on both sides. Prime Min
lister Trcoupis has telegraphed to the Gen
eral in command of the Greek forces,
instructing him to endeavor to arrange an
armistice The latter has evidently been
unable to comply with his instructions,
owing, probably, to the difficulty of secur-
ing an interview with Eyoub Pasha, the
Turkish commander. The Greek Cabinet
is in session at Athens, and great excite
ment prevails in the capital.
LONDON, May 24.-A dispatch from
Athens, Greece,say truce was affected at
noon to-day, and there has been no fight
ing since that time. The casualties are
heavy on both sides. An interview be-
tween the Turkish and Greek commanders
has been arranged for 5 O'Clock Monday
morning, when an endeavor will be made
to arrange an armistice.
