BATTLE OF OOMOSKOS.
The Turks Attack and Greeks Are Uncertain as
10 Their Designs.

Headquarters Greek Army at Domokos
May III +. M.-The Turkish attack on
the Greek right wing began at 2 o'clock
this afternoon. but the flank attacks are
considered to be feiuts and it is believed
that the main attack of the Turks will
be made upon the Greek center where
Crown Prince Constantine is in command.
Two Greek cannon are doing great execu-
ton on the principal Turkish column,
which is advancing through the hills. The
Turkish infantry at several points is in
contact with the Greeks.
1t is believed here that the attack on
Gen. Smolenski near Afrnyros is only o
strategic operation and that the Turks
will endeavor to cut between dhe two
Greek armies. occupy the road leading to
the other mountains. and thus cut off the
retreat of the crown prince.

55th CONGRESS-.
The Cuban Question the One
Subject Of the Day.
Presidents Message for the Relief Of
Americans the First Shot
In What May Prove vertabIe FusiIade Of
Bullets for Spain.

Washington, May 1.-THE House con-
fronted the Cuban question, today,
made party issue of it, and adjourned
without taking any action. President
McKinley's message recommending an
appropriation to relieve suffering Amer
leans in Cuba was received without
any demonstration and on its heels, Mr..
Hit, former chairman of the foreign
affairs committee. asked unanimous
consent for consideration of bill to
appropriate $4,000 in reponse to the
Presidents request. Mr.. Bailey OF
Texas. asked for consent to consider in
connection with the bill an amendment
embodying Senator Morgan's resolution
for recognition of the Cubans as bel
ligerents. Mr.. Dingley would not con-
sent to consider the amendment nor
Mr.. Bailey to consider the bill without
the amendment so for the time the
question was side tracked
Then the House devoted two hours
to debate on the conference report on
bill opening the settlement of the gill
sonite lands on the the Uncompaghre
Indian reservation in Utah, refused to
accept the compromise agreed on by
the conferees and asked for another
conference with the Senate on the bill
In the meantime the Senate resolu-
ton practically identical with Mr.
Hits bill had been sent to the House,
and Mr.. Hit asked unanimous con-
sent for it's consideration. The dead
lock between Mr.. Dingley and Mr..
Bailey was re-enacted, and while Mr..
Bailey was endeavoring to get consent
for the consideration of the two Cuban
propositions together, Mr.. Dingley put
in a motion to adjourn. This motion
was carried by a vote of 80 to Il, -
answering present.
1t was practically party alignment,
only three Republicans. Cooper of Wis
consin, Linney of North Carolina. AMI
Marsh of Illinois, voting against adj
journment and all the Democrats and
Populsts, except Baker of Illinois. and
the independent Silverites voting the
same way Under the rule for BIZ
weekly sessions, recently adopted, the
adjournment carries the question over
to Thursday.

ENGLAND LAUGHS AIT.
The Terms Proposed by Turkey Are Pronounced
Impracticable and Absurd.

London, May 1.-THE conditions pro-
posed by the Porte as the terms of
peace with Greece have been freely
discussed in the Hobbies of Parliament.
today, and the idea of the retrocession
of Thessaly and of such an indemnity
as is already suggested is ridiculed as
impracticable and absurd. At the out
side an indemnity of e5.000,000 or So
100000 and slight strategic rectifica-
ton of the frontier are considered as
likely to be the terms finally settled
upOn.

History repeated itself in the House,
today. No sooner had the journal of
the last session been read than Simp
son. Pop, of Kansas and Wheeler,
Dem, of Alabama, shouted objections.
Wheeler was trying to repeat his
constitutional objection raised las
week amid the objections of severa.
Republicans, when the Presidents sec
rotary, Mr.. Pruden, appeared with a
large document and announced "a
message from the President" Vince
Ter continued to speak, however while
the message lay on the Speakers table.
The Speaker ruled in response to the
objections that Wheeler should be
heard and that gentleman spoke for IL
minutes. Most of the Democrats and
Populists voted against approving the
journal and Simpson forced the Speaker
to count a quorum.
Then the Presidents message on
Cuba was read at 1890. The members
on the floor and the large crowds fill
ing the galleries listened with pro-
found attention. There was a faint
ripple of applause after the reading.
HIT. former chairman of the com
mttee on foreign affairs, at once in
troduced a bill for the appropriation of
$50, GOO for food and transportation for
the Cubans. The bill is as follows:
Be it enacted etc, that the sum of $50
coo or 50 much thereof as may be neces-
sary. be and the same is hereby appropri-
ated out of any money in the treasury
not otherwise appropriated for the des-
titute and suffering citizens of the United
States in the island of Cuba, and for the
transportation of American citizens who
are DESTROYS of returning to the United
States and are without the means to do
so. said money to be expended under the
direction of the secretary of state.
The consideration Of the bill was
very brief. Dingley, the Republican
leader. and Bailey, The Democratic,
were at once on their feet. Bailey
waved aloft a document. Il will not
object to consideration he announced,
IF the amendment which hold can be
offered
II will have to object to that" Ding
ley replied.
Il hope there will be no objection"
said Bailey.
rs there objection?" demanded the
peaker
Il object" spoke up Dingley.
objection is made" the Speaker an
nounced, land the gentleman from New
York presents a conference report on
the Indian appropriation bill" This
passage consumed but a minute.
Members crowded about Bailey and
learned that the amendment he pro-
posed to offer, embodied Senator Nor
gan's resolution for the recognition of
the billigerency of the Cubans.
The conference report on the Indian
bill recommended the compromise on
the gilsonite lands of the Uncompah-
gre Indians in Utah providing that the
retain title to the lands
and they be mined under regulations
prescribed by the secretary of the in
terror. the government to receive a
royalty of IS cents a ton on the gill
sonite mined.
Opposition to the plan developed at
once. Lacey criticised it on the ground
that it did not apply to asphelt beds
and did not guard against the control
IF the lands by a trust. Lacey pro-
posed an amendment limiting to 100
acres the amount of land which any
could secure. by assign
nents. King, Dem, Utah. protested
against an arrangement which he held

A one mile team relay race confined to
schools in the Interscholastic Athletic AS
sociation has been added to the pro-
gramme of the N. J. A. G. Carnival at
Madison Square Garden, December II and
Is. The event has been put on at the
earnest request of those interested in the
development of juvenile athletics and the
least that can be said of it is that it will
be by far the most interesting item on
the card. The contest is bound to be a
rousing one, as representative cams from
the following preparatory schools have
promised to enter the competition: Har-
ward, Berkeley, Barnard, Cutter, Column
bia Grammar, Hamilton Institute, Wood
ward, Trinity, De La Sale, Sachs, Wilson
and Kellogg, and the Brooklyn Polytech-
mic. The teams will consist of four men
each, and each man to run a quarter
mile. The prizes for this contest will be
the finest ever offered in America. A
further incentive to score, too, will be
the fact of a point bonus being given to
the school, college, club or any other in
stitution scoring the highest aggregate
number of points, both nights being in
cluded in the count. The banner itself
will be manufactured out of the most
costly material and of the most excep-
%tionally artistic design.

High Scores We're Plentiful in the
Jersey City League-A Race
for School Boys.

The Clinton Club smashed all records
in the Jersey City League last night, and
rolled up a score that put in the shade all
team records made by five men in Hud-
son county. They rolled in great form,
and the fact hat their high score was
made on the alleys of the Clio Wheelmen
is all the more praiseworthy. The team
gave the greatest exhibition ever wit
messed at the Pythian Hall alleys, and
their work is all the more assuring OF
their success in the battle for the cham
pionship. That the game was not the
result of a huke was shown by their
work in the first game, which carried
them over the 900 score. This Clos put
UP a good defence, and the Clintons were
made to roll in their second game, the
home bowlers beating their best previous
score of the season in this league. The
competition last night proved a double
record smasher, as in addition to the Gin
tons big score Herman Heye of the Clos
set new figures to the Individual record
with a total of 242. 1t was a great night
for the pin Founders. The Clinton five
beat out the average with some high
figures. John Faulkner rolled ga in the
first, and Ed HUMPHREYS 225 in the Sec
ond. Score
