The Vessels Leave the Island of Crete for
an Unknown Destination.
Canea. March S.-The Greek fleet left
here Saturday morning for an unknown
destination.
The foreign warships have landed 5oO
men at Selino. The news of proposal
upon the part of the powers to grant
autonomy to the Island of Crete has
created a bad impression among the
insurgents, who desire annexation to
Greece. The Mussulmans are also irri-
tated at the concession of autonomy.
The departure of the British consul,
Sir Alfred Billiotti alone for Selino on
board the British battleship Rodney,
although that vessel was accompanied
by other foreign warships, is badly IN
terpreted by the other consuls. who,
however, had previously rejected a pro-
posal to go there in order to make a
fresh attempt to save the Moslem famil-
les who are in danger by the invest
ment of that place by the insurgents.
The ambassadors of the powers FIJI
day presented a second collective note
TO the Turkish government calling upor
the porte to withdraw the Turkish
troops from the interior of Crete anC
to keep them in the towns. The recal
of all troops from the island except
small detachment to guard the new
governor, Ismael Bey. will ultimately b'
