Instructions from the various State legisla-
lures TO their respective senators TO work
and vote for the submission OF the neoes-
sarv constitutional amendment. Probably
the overwhelming sentiment Of the nisssas
in the United States Is In favor Of popular
choice OF United States senator's. Time and
AGAIN the demand for such a change has
found it's way into party platforms. hut no
active effort has ever yet been made TO
meet popular desire IN the premises. \
legislature that will take an advanced stand
on the proposition and not only instruct its

The Minister Claims Tint the Porte
Is to Blame for the Outbreaks
of Hostilities.

Athens, April 1s.--M. skouzes tho creo,,
minister Of foreign affairs has sent a
reply to the note which Edhem Boy. the
retiring Turkish minister. handed to hin,
announcing that I'm consequence of the
aggressive attitude Of Greece. diplomatic
relations between the king of Honenes and
the sultan of Turkey and their respective
governments" werc broken off.
NJ, Skouzes, in his answer, SAYS: "In
wishing to make Groccc responsible for
the rupture of diplomatic relations. the
imperial government appears to lose sight
OF the fact that Greece far from proceed
ing TO acts of hostility against Turkey,
mas had to suffer during the last few
days from repeated acts of aggression
upon the part Of the Turkish government
at several points on the frontier. owing
10 the conflict AZ The Prophet Elias on
March 2S, the royal government drew the
attention Of the imperial government OF
the attitude of the Turkish troops. but IN
stead OF yielding to the spirit of modern
nlctation, the imperial government appear
ed disposed to procipitate events Thus
on FRIDAY the Turkish army, without pro.
vocation, attempted 10 obtain possession OF
Anaiipsis which was mutually agreed to
IN the neutral territory. II was only ow-
ing to the resistance of the Greeks that
this attempt to violate neutral territory
failed, The royal government cannot let
pass in silence the fact that before IT
was officially notified of the rupture oi
diplomatic relations and while the kings
minister at Consiantnople was only noti-
fed at an advanced hour OF the night, the
Turkish forces at prevesa opened fire at
s O'Clock In the morning on the Hellenic
position at Actium and sunk the Greek
steamer Macedonia.
in face OF these facts showing there
is little foundation for the assertion Of the
sublime porte to the effect that Greece
committed acts OF hostility the RESPONSE
bllity for the consequences can In no way
rest with the kings government.
