the Cards lie Holds and Does Not Mean

His Grasp.
Athens, May 1S.-A dispatch was re-
ceived from Crown Prince Constantine,
dated from Domokos at $3.50 Monday
morning, saying that the Turks, num-
bering about 10000 men appeared in
sight marching on Domokos, and that
the attack would apparently be directed
against the two wings, and especially
the left wing of the Greek forces. An
other dispatch from the crown prince
dated noon. stated that the Turks had
drawn nearer and were then about four
and a half miles distant. Immediately
after the receipt of this dispatch M

THE TURK STANDS PAT.
Will Not Give Up Thessaly Now That II
Has Been Captured.

Constantinople. May 1S.-The repre-
sentatives of the powers here held a
long meeting and drew up note which
will be presented to the Turkish gov
eminent as soon as one of the ambassa-
dCrs receives the necessary instructions
from his government.
This note does not deal with the peace
conditions, but merely repeats the re-
quest for an armistice, and declares the
powers will not permit Greece to be
crushed.
Although ii is assumed in some quar-
ters that the porte. in accordance with
eastern usages, has demanded more in
order to obtain less, 1t is pointed out
that if the Turkish government desired
to bargain it would not have formu-
lated it's conditions officially.
The tone of the military officials here
and elsewhere is most emphatically
against abandoning Thessaly. They ar
que that if Europe has been unable to
make Greece evacuate the island Of
Crete, how will Europe be able to force
Turkey out of Thessaly?

What the Bus1ness manager
brotherhood Says.
New York. May 1S-There was no
outward manifestation of excitement at
the headquarters of the striking tailors
Monday. William Cohen, business agent
of the Brotherhood of Tailors, of which
the strikers are nearly all members,
said Monday.
I'm this city. Brooklyn, and Newark
Is, 900 men and women are on strike, TO-,
900 of them in this city, where 1000
shops on the east side are closed. This
strike affects the entire clothing man
ufacturing trade. The reason for the
strike is the failure of the contractors
to live up to the agreement they made
more than year ago. About 5000 per-
sons struck Sunday morning and the
others Sunday night and early Monday,
when they had finished their tasks
Cohen said that assistance was ex-
pected from the Progressive Tailors'
Union No. II, which will meet and in
all probability order a strike. The un-
ion numbers about 1000 members, who
make the better class of ready-made
garments. OF the strikers, according to
Cohen, $1,000 belong to the Brotherhood
of Tailors, $500 to the Children Jacket
makers union and about 1000 TO the
Sailors Jacketmakers' uion.
Reports received at the headquarters
were to the effect that every shop was
closed I'm Brownsville, as the section of
Brooklyn where the garment makers
live is known. In Newark about 500,
all told, are reported out. About coo
of the strikers are women, most of
them being buttonhole makers.
The cutters, who form a separate or
ganization. have not struck. They will
go on working for while, but will soon
be forced to ideness because the goods

EXCITEMENT OVER A MURDER.
The Culprit Spirited Away to Prevent
Lynching.

Little Rock, May 1S.-The excitement
created by the murder of Liveryman
Blair Sunday evening by Deputy Sheriff
Heard has not yet subsided. No at
tempt at lynching was made Sunday
night, owing no doubt to the fact that
the news of the crime did not become
generally known until Monday morning.
The sheriff took advantage of this fact
and late Sunday night quietly took him
to Texarkana to prevent lynching Mon
day night. Heard has quite record as
a desperate man. He is the deputy
sheriff who threatened to shoot Jim Cor
bett and Bob FitZsimmons when the
pugilists were in Little Rock under ar
rest. He also is the officer who came
near choking Miss Anna Eva Fay to
death in an attempt to tie knot about
the spiritualists neck in such manner
as to upset her performance. Blair, the
murdered man, was North Carolinian
and was well connected In the state.
His wife is Frustrated at the shock and

presnt fight being made on a resumption
OF the open salon in Kansas, a promi-
nent state official said, speaking of the
attitude of the administration. said:
THE policy of Governor Leedy and
Attorney General Boyle will be to let
the larger cities have all the liquor they
want. This is particularly true of
Leaver tn, Wichita, Atchison and
Kansas City, Kan. The sentiment in
those cities is overwhelmingly in favor
of the sale of liquor and the collection
of a license. That has been the pro-
gramme in those cities. In the smaller
cities and towns Governor Leedy's ad-
ministration will let the people handle
the question themselves"
