Retreat from NeleStIno.
Athens, May S.-A dispatch just re-
ceived from Aimyros announces that
General Smolensks brigade arrived
there Friday morning after having eff
fected a retreat from Velestino in good
order. A panic prevails at Lamia, on the
gulf of Lamia. which is now the base Of

mokos. Many of the inhabitants are
fleeing from the place fearing it will
be attacked by the Turks. Three YES
sells brought refugees from Lamia to
the Piraeus.
The hills at Domokos, where the
Greeks will make a stand. will practi-
caly destroy the effectiveness of the
Turkish cavalry, which vastly outnum-
bers the Greeks. A short distance back
of Domokos is the old frontier of Greece,
very mountainous and easily defensi-
BILE. Lamia will now be the base of
operations Of the Greek centers. The
country at Pharsala is level and there

FAvoRs TARIFF COMMISSION.
senator Cullom Believes In Judicious
Revision as Needed,


Washington. May SIN reply to in
quires as to his views on a permanent
tariff commission. Senator Cullom has
written the following letter:
Samuel b. Archer, Secretary The
Tariff Commission League. Newark N.
j. My Dear Sir:-You have asked me
two or three times whether / have been
and am now in favor of a permanent
tariff commission. / have for many
years thought that there ought TO be
some means devised by which we could
avoid these constant and extreme
changes in tariff legislaton-first going
far i'm the direction of a high tariff, and
on the occasion of change of politics go
ing as far the other way
IL believe that through the judicious
agency of a permanent tariff commits
sion, composed of experts, statisticians
and business men, such changes could
be made from year to year by congress
as might be indicated and clearly shown
to be wise. This would save the neces-
sity of requiring a change of the whole
tariff system by whatever party came
into power.
Certainly we cannot continue indef-
initely as we have been doing with ref
erence to that subject. because the bus
mess of the country will not tolerate it.
hope sincerely that this congress may
provide for some kind OF commission
which will aid i'm changing the situa-
tion. and l should be glad If an amend
ment of the kind indicated were to be
incorporated in the bill now before the
senate, known as the Dingley bill. Very
truly yours S. VI. CULLOM"

ATTEMPT TO WRECK A TRAIN.
Railway Employees Misplace " switch at
Cheyenne.

Cheyenne, wy, May S.-An attempt
was made to wreck the incoming Chey-
enne and Northern Pacific passenger
train by misplacing a switch in the
yards at the northern entrance to the
city. Owing to the fact that the train
was running slowly no damage was
done beyond derailng the locomotive.
The authorities upon investigation dis
covered that the parties who attempted
to cause the wreck are several Union
Pacific brakemen. one of whom made
full confession of the affair to County
Attorney Breckens. The switch was
turned with the expectation that Chey-
enne and Northern employees would be
blamed for it and discharged and extra
Union Pacific men would be given work

ALLEGED ATTEMPT AT BRIBERY.
The Latest Sensation In Connection with
the Humphrey Bills.

Springfield, Ills May S.-The greatest
sensation that has developed so far in
connection with the Humphrey bills was
created Friday morning by a reported
attempt to bribe committee clerk. mis-
saken for a member of the house. About
40 o'clock A. l.. Hamilton, publisher OF
the West Chicago Journal, and clerk OF
the committees on live stock and dairy
ing. drainage and waterways, and his
toric geology and science, stated TO rep
resentatives Of the press that he had
been mistaken for Representative Flan-
nigan by lobbyist for the Humphrey
hills and offered $1,000 to vote for them.
Here is Hamilton's story:
Shortly after the house met Friday
morning / was talking TO Representa-
tive Bailey, who was sitting in his seat.
Senator Landrigan at the same time
was talking TO Representative Flanni-
gan, who occupies a seat next to Bailey.
When Landrigan walked out / also went
out after him. When we got out into
the corridor Landigan turned TO me and
said: Mr.. Flanagan. i want to make
you acquainted with Mr.. Garrard' and
i shook hands with Mr.. Gerard and
then he said: Mr.. Flanagan, we want
few more votes for the Humphrey bills
We have seventy-seven, but want a few
more to make things sure. If you will
vote for the bills / will make you a
present of $1,000 after they are passed
He also spoke of some other bill. said
nothing and walked away. ] went back
to Representative Bailey and told him
what had happened and remarked that
! was sorry j had not made a kick for
5000 on the spot"
The Gerard referred to is F. c. Ger
rard, for many years secretary of the
state board Of agriculture AS IT was
rot known that he had anything to do
with the Humphrey bills. and as he is
man Of high standing, the story was
at once on everybody's lips, and created
the greatest excitement An ineXplicable
part of the story, assuming it TO be true
was that Senator Landrigan should be
go-between in the Humphrey bills
for he has steadfastly fought them ever
since their introduction. There is yet
great mystification among members, but
there is a marked inclination TO disbe-
lieve Hamilton's story. Much depends.
OF course. upon Hamilton's character
about which little appears TO be known.
The matter will probably be investigated
by q legislative committee.
