Arthur, the dest, is So fer ing from a

been premeditated and Harry McEl-
fresh, who is employed "a Waterman at

rested as au Gccomp.ce
While Watson Francis sat inside "a

was assaulted by John Dye and beaten
into insensio.'ity with slung shot.
Watson ran out to his brothers as
sistance, when he too ives assaulted by
John, James and Edward Dye and left

The trou BILE is supposed to haye been
the result of recent encounter in
which one of the Francis boys rhrashed
John Dye, in the presence of the lat
ter's fathe,, who app oEed the ch tstise
ment.
The case is very ugly one and the
neigh hborhood is much worked up. AL

Actual War Near at Hand.

London, April 9.-The Even>
ing News publishes a late dis
patch from ElassoLa. where is
situated the headquarters of
Edhem Pasha, the com mander-
mischief Of the Turkish forces
in Macedonia, giving the details
of battle between Greek and
Turkish forces. L is likely that
the Greeks were irregular troops
who advanced into Turkish ters
ritory despite the orders OF
Grown Prince Constantine. If
this is the case it may result in
open hostilities between the two
armies on the frontier. At the
time the dispatch was sent the
lighting was proceeding vigor~
ously and the Greeks were hold
ing their own. If there are any
