later all telegraphic communication with
Larissa was cut off. 1t is supposed the
Turks occupied the place tonight.
News of the defeat of the Greek army
caused intense popular emotion here. Di-
rectly after the receipt of the intelligence
a prolonged council was held by the Cabi-
net. What occurred at the meeting was
not divulged. Nothing is known of the
losses sustained by either side at Matt.

whole of the forces in Epirus, onlv leay-

asked 1or. There are a mum Der of cases where
general officers have been sent to Europe in
time OF war to represent this ountry. GEN
eral Scott observed the Napoleon wars in 1915.
General Sherman the brief hosulities between
Germany and Austria and General sheridan the
contiict between Germany and France. McClel-
Ian, Delafeld and Mordecai reported on the
Crimean war and Hazen and Green on the last
Turkish war. Upton, Forsyth and Sanger in-
spected to armies of the world in 1875.
Should General Miles go to Europe he will
be accompanied by Captain Michler and posi-
bly, Captain Maus. He will make no final ar.
rangements about starting until the President
speaks. 1t is understood that he has already
perfected some preliminary plans in order
that he may get away promptly when the
order to march" is issued. Naturally General
Miles is exceedingly reticent in referring 10
the probabilities. When he speaks OF the SUBJ
ject it is evident that he is extremely enthusi-
astic over the prospects.
AS TO Captains Scriven and Dorst the Presi-
dent has approved a recommendation of Secre-
tary Alger that the former be authorized TO
join the Sultan's army and the latter King
Georges forces.
Captain Scriven has been directed to report
to the American Minister at Constantinople.
Instructions have been sent the Minister by
the Secretary of State to request authority foT
the captain TO go to the front. No application
has been received from Captain Dorst to Join
the Greek army. In his case the orders Issued
grant him permission to go to Athens and re-
port for duty to the American Minister. 1t is
assumed that he will gladly avail himself of
this opportunity and it is expected that some
particularly interesting reports will be made
by him to the War Department
