Prince Georgi Berovitoh Takes Refuge on
a Russian War Vessel.
Canea, Island of Crete, Feb. 15.-The
Christians occupied the heights sur
rounding the town yesterday morning
and began to lombard Canea. AS soon
as the firing commenced Prince Georgi
Berovitch, governor of Crete, with 80
recently enrolled Montenegrin gem
darmes, boarded the Russian man-of-
war. The Greek consul also EMBARK
ed on board another vessel. The
Turks, from the fortress, replied to the
fire Of the Christians. The fighting
was attended with bloodshed. The
military governor has been removed
from his post. The foreign consuls
also embarked on board the various
vessels lying off the town Of Canea.
The Greek consul at Heraltlion went
on board the Greek warship Nauar-
chos Miaulis. The Christians at Her
aldion are also hurrying on board the
ships. Fighting occurred around Ha-
lepa Saturday After a brisk fusillade
the Turks dislodged the Christians and
occupied Akrotiri hills The French
consul was obliged to quit his country
house at Halepa and return to his Of
fetal residence at Canea.
The report is current here that the
Turkish authorities, considering that
resistance to the cause of the Chris
tians in Crete is hopeless, have request
ed the foreign commanders to occupy
the town. The commanders of the
men-of-war have ne erred the subject
matter TO their respective governments
and asked Tor instructions.
The residence Of the consuls was III
state Of great trepidation Saturday,
owing to the approach of the insur-
gents, who, Joined it is stated by Greek
volunteers, assembled in great force
on Akrotiri peninsula, made an ad-
vance in the neighborhood. The Hell
lenic flag was hoisted on the arrival
of the Greek warships, and was dis
played on the summit Of an adjoining
hill. All of the members Of the families
of the consular agents were transfer
red to the warships. The Greek con-
sulate was garrisoned, with an impress
sive show Of force, by native Christians
and sailors in anticipation of an at
tack from the Mohammedans from the
vicinity of Canea.
The Mohammedans at Canea were
in a state of extreme excitement, and
owing to rumors of an intended attack
upon the oonsulates at Canea special
precautions were taken at the offices
of the British consul. About 400 Bashi-
Bazouks and company of regulars
hurried out from Canea and attacked
the Christians. The Christians were
finally repulsed, and pursued into the
Interior of the peninsula. Subsequently
the bishop of Canea invoked the aid
of the consul.
The governor demanded a written
assurance from the consuls that the
! Greek fleet is not to molest the trans
port conveying troops to Siua. This
transport was compelled to return Fri
day by the firing from a Greek war
ship. This assurance was given, with
the further pledge to prevent Greek
warships from bombarding the town.

Trenton, Feb. 15.-Ex-Mayor Frank
A. Mcgowan has been deposed from
the presidency of two of the companies
of which he was the head. General
William II. Sxirm was elected to sue
oeed him as president Of the Empire
Rubber company, and George r. Cook

Ex-Governor Boies of Iowa Gives
His Views on the Subject.

DIES MONIES, Oct. 12.-Ex-Governor
Boies has written letter to the Lead
err upon the subject of Bullion as a
Basis of National Currency"
At the outset he asks the questions:
Gold and silver bullion for money, is
it practicable?" Can they be made an
invariable double standard for the
measurement of values?" He answers
these questions in the affirmative, and
says that Mr.. Window suggested. the
basis of the plan which he elaborates.
He concludes his letter as follows:
1T is said no plan of that character
viii be in accord with the Chicago plat
form. That is true. But the Chicago
platform has had its day in court before
the tribunal of last resort. Must Dem
ocrats, to be loyal adhere to it forever?
The objection is at variance with the
whole theory Of our form of govern
meut. If valid election would settle
nothing, majorities would cease to rule,
and when a political issue was once
Joined the warfare over it would go on
until one or the other of the parties to

verbal negotiations between Embassa-

stated, Lord Salisbury said he would
