HOPE WAR WILL DE AVERTED.
Feeling to that Effect is Prevalent in
British Capital.


Copyright 1897, by the Associated Press.)
LONDON, April 17.-Easter being the
great festival of the Greek church, it was
hoped that actual hostilties since the re-
ported failure of the raid of the insurgents
into Macedonia, would be postponed until
next week, especially as the concert of the
powers, having failed in everything else,
succeeded beyond all hope in holding back
Turkey from plunging into war, while prov
ing to Greece that Turkey is still able to
mobilize an enormous and efficient army.
Whether this is a good omen for Europe
and for civilization, it has certainly had the
effect of making Greece hesitate, but trade
Is at standstill in both countries and the
people are already suffering. Greece is
spending about 100000 daily in the support
of her army and Turkey is probably spend
ing three times that amount. IT is impos-
sible for this state of things to continue much
longer, and the news received today from
Nezeros of fighting, apparently between the
regular troops of Greece and Turkey, appears
to indicate that a crisis has already been
reached.
The Roman Catholics Of Greece and Crete
are trying, through their priests to induce
the pope to intervene between Turkey aud
Greece, seeing that the powers have failed
in order to prevent war. But It is said his
holiness is not inclined TO interfere.
The prince of Wales, from Copenhagen. is
making arrangements to have nurses sent
from London TO the frontier Of Greece.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE news Of the
crisis in the Cretan situation was the alb
sorbing topic in official circles here tonight
The expressions we're general that the United
States could not be drawn into the conflict
and that the course of this country was
plain in preserving strict neutrality 1t was
felt on all hands among officials that the
real gravity of the announcement was in the
prospect that it would serve as the spark tc
start the conflagration through all Europe
Secretary Sherman said:
Recent events have seemed to make wal
inevitable and l have expected that result
to come. Fortunately, the scene of the re-
ported conflict is far from us, and the
United States has little or no concern with
the war. We will. of course observe the
strlctest neutrality as between the parties
Our commercial interests with Greece and
Turkey are very small, so there is nc
ground for disturbance in that connection
Mr.. Sherman's attention was called to re-
ports some time since that the United States
war ship Bancroft might be guard ship to
the United States minister, Mr.. Terrell, at
Constantinople, and the secretary was asked
II the war was likely to renew the occasion
for war ship in the Golden Horn.
There has been no talk of that of late,
said he, 'and l see no occasion for any
change in affairs"
Senator Davis, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations, said: "The at
titude of the United States will, of course,
be one of neutrality and a strict observance
of treaties. The war can have little direct
effect on us, our interests are so small

Greeks Assert the Ottomnns Were the
AGgressors In the ARRAY.

(Copyright, 1897 by the Associated Press.)
LARISSA, Headquarters Of the Greek Army
in Tbessaly, April 17.--Details of the fighting
between tho Greeks and Turks at Nezeros,
Just within the Greek frontier line, in Thes-
sally, and due south Of Mount Olympus. have
been received here. The hghting originated,
according to the Greek troops, in an attempt
on the part Of the Turkish forces to occupy
an abandoned post of the Greeks. The move
ment was opposed by the Greek forces where
upon tho Turks opened fire and sharp en-
gagement, lasting four hours, ensued The
Greeks eventually retreated. Their losses are
not known. This engagement occurred yes
terday.
At o'clock this morning heavy firing be-
tween the Turks and the Greeks near Neze-
ros was resumed The Greeks in the mean
while had been reinforced with artillery
which they brought into play on the Turkish
post at Kolroni The latter was eventually
destroyed with dynamite.
1t is reported as this dispatch is sent that
the Greeks have captured three Turkish sta
tions, and that the Turks are rstreating.
Grown Prince Constantine the Greek
commander-in chief, and General Maeris
were up all nigh. dlspatching orders to the
front.
The correspondent Of the Associated press
has tust heard that the engagement has ex-
tended ia the Greek posts TO the left o;
Nezeros. but, according to the Official state
ment made TO the correspondent, the firing
has ceased.
The correspondent OF the Associated press
yesterday was enabled to ride TO Malouna
Pass, and inspected the cup valley, north
east OF which is Elassona where the TURK
ish headquarters are situated. To all ap-
pearances the valley is almost deruded OF
troops. The correspondent saw only three
squadrons OF cavalry, three batteries OF field
artillery and few battalions OF infantry.
There was no sembanee Of a big camp
whereas three weeks ago, according to OBJ
servation on the frontier and the reports
OF correspondents with the Turkish army,
there were some $4,000 troops in position al
Elassona. The indications are that either
the Turkish troops have been Withdrawn be-
hind the ridges surrounding Elsssona for
coneealment, or they have been moved west.

GLADSTONE TO cREr.x LEADER
Regrets that England Is Carrying out
Mishcs of Two N0MthfnI nesn0ts.-

LONDON, April 17.-Mr Gladstone has
written letter to the Macedonian leader
Captain Dampsez, in which he says; Under
the present deplOrable scheme all the British
government has the right to do seemingly
is to plead it's opinions before n tribunal of
two youthful despots, the emperors of Ger
many and Russia, and to abide by their
helm to execute their final determinations.
Our disgraceful office seems to be TO place
ships, guns soldiers and sailors at their dis
posal for the purpose OF keeping down the
movement for the liberty OF Crete and OF
securing TO these young despots. who have in
no wise earned the confidence OF Europe, the
power of deciding questions which rightfully
belong to the Cretans."
