King George responded to this notice
as he had to prior notices of the same
sort. that Turkish Outrages on the
Greek and Christian residents in Crete
demanded Grecian interference.

with two rounds of blank cartridges.

where the Greek flag was hoisted some
days ago. The British SHIPS fired
forty and the foreign ships thirty
shells at the village and ruined the
house held by the Cretans. The flag
was soon lowered and the order cease
fire" sounded after ten minutes.
Thereupon the flag was rehoisted.
The rocks around were crowded with
Cretans. The Turks, encouraged by
the feet. now opened lively fusilladc
while the Cretans were removing the
wounded. The Cretans had not re-
piled during the whole performance.
The Cretans suffered heavily by
their own fault They disregarded an
order to withhold musketry fire until
the work of the artillery had been
completed. They wasted SO, 600 cart
ridges and lost thirty men, maintain
ing furious and foolish fire. advanc-
ing to within 100 yards of the redoubts,
while the Turks fired splendidly, vast
ing few bullets.
The foreign admirals have warned
Colonel VassOs, commander of the
Greek forces on the island of Crete, of
their intention to attack his troops
with four men-of-war anchored off his
camp, Aghioi Theodoroi, should he at
tempt to advance to the interior of the
