AMBASSADORS Ar CONsrANTrNopLE
No Note to Greece Sent From That
Point.


New York March "A special to the
Herald from Constantinople says:
All the runors concerning the transmits
sion OF a collective note by the a,nhassa
doris. accompanied by an ultimatum from
here to Greece are premature The ambas
sadors here have not even received the
terms III which this note is to be couchod
Consequently tho opinion is that owing to
the near approach OF the Baim festival on
Thursday. the eventual transmission could
hardly be made before Sunday
1t is no longer doubted here that this
note will be accepted by the porte Mean
while it is hoped that Greece, by that time
will be induced to accept 1t. The ambas
sailors continue to use all their efforts To
persuade the sultan to cease his arma-
Ments
According to dispatches received by the
ambassadors incendarsm In Crete cottin.
ues very serious encounter took placc
at WifetaN. fifteen miles from Canea, be-
tween Insurgents. supported by Greek
troops and Turkish troops. The latter re-
turned to Canea. The blockade of the en-
tire coast OF Crete which tx now maintained
with tho greatest rigor by the foreign
forces. is very sensible.
The want of provisions is felt Throughout
the island. The inhabitants of Gambia asked
for the removal of the blockade and arc
ready to provide themselves with provisions
for one week.
The French officer commanding the
sailors debarked at Gambia has asked for
sastructions.
