Fellow COuntrymen Give Them n
Great send-OR From New York.
New York, April 24-Four hundred and
fifty Greeks sailed to-day for Havre, en-
route to the scene of the war between
their native country and Turkey.
An night long the Greek colony, In the
vicinity of Roosevelt and Madison streets,
was astIr and enthusiasm for fatherland
was given vent in songs and speeches.
A brass band played national airs at In
tervals, and the war cry "Zito Polemus''
greeted every utterance of a patriotic
character that became audible above the
din.
In addition TO the $50 who took passage
on board the La Champagne, there were
m1ny others anxious to go to the front,
bit for the time being there was no pos
slbility Of providing them with transport
tatlon. They were promised, however,
that IN a few days they would be sent
forward TO join their brethren in arms
on the frontier Of Greece.
A large concourse followed the home
going Greeks from their Headquarters TO
the pier of the French steamship line. At
the head went a brass band playing the
Greek national anthem. When the var
riors had boarded the La Champagne they
were lined upon the deck while James
Patterson, the local representative of the
national league. made them an impas-
stoned speech, breathing the most patri-
otto ferVor, utterng a prayer for the
safety OF the men going to the front and
expressing the hope that they would give
a good account OF themselves. As the
vessel steamed out from the dock the
cheering redoubled in vigor, and the pa
triots rushed 10 the stern and responded
with "zetoa," and waved au revoirs 10
their friends.

GREECE APT TO TRIUMPH.
Turkey VIII BE Defeated Unless She
Cnn Win Quickly.

turkey VIII lie Defcnted Mess she
Can Win Quickly.
New York, April PA dispatch to the
World from London says: Unless Tur-
key can bring the war to a rapid termina-
ton the triumph of Greece cannot be pre-
vented. This is asserted in quarters in
which the real situation Is thoroughly I'M
derstood, especially the desperate state Of
the sultan's finances. Therefore, Osman
Pasha, the hero of Plevna, has been sent
20 the front with orders to strike a dar-
ing, decisive blow without loss of time.
That a panic is prevailing at Yldiz Kiosk
is plainly shown by the sudden dispatch
of the Russian envoy from Constantinople
to Sofa to stay the menacing demands of
Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria. which the
porte is equally afraid to refuse or to con-
cede The situation is deemed to be su-
premely critical, and unless Osman Pasha
can gain a conspicuous triumph the cata-
cylsm of Constantinople, which the pow
ers have disgracefully compromised them
selves in trying to prevent, may come at
any moment
I'm ministerial circles here, where the
quick defeat of Greece was regarded as
the surest and least unsafe solution of
highly dangerous complication, new de-
Velopments are causing CONSERVATION. The
increase of popular sympathy for Greece,
caused by the gallant conduct of her
troops following the first defeats, has
amounted TO revulsion. The incapacity Of
European concert is at last universally adj
mitted and its conclusions can now be
safely ignored. King George, after great
efforts, has saved his people and can now
afford to be moderate. Speedy peace may
be expected, both on the frontier and In

Herman Metzler, who died in the City
Hospital Dec IL, is the subject of some
doubt as to identity. William Neff, who
boarded in the same place with the dead
man, sent letters to various addresses found
among his effects. One envelope was found
directed to Mrs. N. S. Taylor, of woodruff
ILL.,. and there WAS also the address of A. M
Burd. Mrs. Taylor, upon being written to
by Mr.. Neff, addressed a letter to Postmas-
ter Sahm in which she expresses the fear
that the dead man was her brother, A. M.
Burd, from whom she has not heard for a
long time. In the meantime Mr.. Neff. in
answer to another letter he wrote, received
a reply from a woman said to be the dead
man divorced wife. The latter, who is in
the South, sent a photograph for the pur-
pose of Identifying the remains, and also
telegraphed to Metzlers sister Mrs. Mack
of Detroit. Mrs. Mack, who is a cousin of
F. j. Mack, of the Board of Public Safety,
came to the city and identified the body as
that of her brother. In order to ascertain
whether there are good grounds for Mrs.
Taylors fears that the dead man is her
brother, and not Mrs. Mack'S, photograph
has been sent Mrs. Taylor.

INDIANA'S FINE CLAYS
STATE BIOLOGISTS REPORT con-
SIDERS vITRIFIED BRICK.
Much Money Spent Outside for What
the State Could Produce
Portland Cement.

State Geologist Biatehley is at work on
his annual report, which promises to be a
very interesting one. 1t will be larger than
that of last year, which covered 200 pages.
One of the leading articles in the report will
be on the clays of northwestern Indiana.
Mr.. Blatchley has always taken q great
interest in Indiana clays and their develop
ment, and during the last year several COM
panies have been formed as an outcome of
the many suggestions he has made. Mr..
Blatchley shows that no State possesses
clay deposits superior to those of Indiana,
and that instead of importing vitertied
brick from other States, this State should
supply the entire home demand and be-
come an exporter as well. Previous TO
1896 there was expended in twenty-seven
towns and cities of the State for paving
brick the sum Of 1884,, $751; of which amount
no less than $647, G22 was sent to Ohio and
West Virginia. Reports now being received
by the state statistician show that many
of these towns have paid from $4,000 to
$40 900 IL mile for their brick paving, price
which appears to be exorbitant. 1t is
thought with a greater development of the
brick industry in the State the cost of the
paving will be much diminished, in which
event there would likely follow greatly
increased use OF the IIldlerldl. DuIlhS tiic
past year one large brick concern, the
Marion Brick Company, has began opera
tons near Montezuma, and another new
plant of considerable, size has been erected
at Martinsville. A large pottery establish
ment has been constructed at Brazil. Inc
geologist has discovered some new deposits
of mari during the year, and at Syracuse,
in Kosciusko county, plant costing $4,000
has been put in for the manufacture of
Portland cement, product formed from
equal parts of mari and clay.
Other interesting articles in the geologist
report will be one on the geology of Lake
and Porter counties,gand another on the oil
developments in theS new fields of Peru,
Alexandria and Broad Ripple. Amos w:
Butler, the new secretary of the Board of
State Charities, has a treatise on the birds
of Indiana, which will appear in the report.
An important work being conducted by
Assistant Geologist Ashley is the making
of an exhaustive report on the coal fields
of the State. Many large maps are being
drawn, showing the location of mines, the
depth OF veins, etc.. This report will not
be ready for the printers until 1898, as much
field work has yet to be done south of Pike
county When completed it will be a very
valuable addition TO the geological literature
of the State.
