FRANCES cRETAN POLICY.
Minister Of Foreign Affairs Announces She
Will Follow the Powers.

Paris. March 15.--In the Chamber OF
equities. today, was discussed the ques-
ION as to the Greece-Cretan situation
and the action which had been
taken by France In regard TO II. M
Coble, Republican, Radical Socialist and
former President of the Council. declared
1t impossible to associate France with the
coercion OF Greece. France. he said, had
nothing to hope for from acting In con-
cert with the other Powers and ought to
retire therefrom. The alliance between
France and Russia. he asserted should
be based upon the reciprocal advantages
which did not warrant blind adherence on
the part OF France to the whole OF
Russia's policy.
NJ DE La Fosse, Rightist. advocated
the formation OF an European Congress
for the purpose of arriving at "a solution
of the Greece-Cretan difficulty. The
Greece, he said, approached the ridicu-
lous.
NJ. Hanotaux. minister of foreign af-
fairs. replied that the Turk as well as the
excepting the point occupied joirtiy by
European troops. The Powers. he said.
would ensure security In Island by land
ing renforcements. The Powers. he
continued, held that the reply of Greece
10 the ult!matum was insufficient They
agreed at the outset to enjoin upon
Greece the recall of her troops from
crete and then proclaim autonomy for
the island.
NJ. Harotaux recalled the fact that.
Feb. -. the Chamber approved the ad.
nerence OF the government to the concert
OF the powers. and asked for "A renewal
OF the confidence of the House. The
Greek question. he said. was much less
acute than 1t had been. The presence In
Crete of the Greek army OF occupation
under Gel. Vases. hinsiered the paciiica-
tion of the island. and the Powers, were
therefore determined to impose their de-
Cisions.
There were. he said. three courses be-
tore France. The first was the attitude
she assumed in 1852 in defence of Greece.
then there was attitude of abstention as
in l&2. which allowed England TO ac,
i.onc in Egypt. and in 1856. when France
aostained from action in Greece Turkish.
Quarrel; thirdly there was the concert OF
Europe to which all the Powers had ac.
ceded.
NJ. Hanotaux finally declared tina,
france would follow the concert policy

Renorted Agreement Of Powers.

Reported Agreement OF Powors'
Rome, March 15.-It Is officially an
nounced here that the result Of the pour
parlers of the powers. Saturday. - a
definite agreement not to reply to the
Greek note, but to issue orders to the
foreign admirals to establish an imme-
diate blockade OF Cretan ports. which Will
probably be In full operation today.
This agreement is somewhat IN the
nature Of concession to Russia and
France. Russia, during the middle OF
last week, proposed, with France second
ing the proposal, another joint note to
Greece, insisting on the withdrawal OF
the troops. instead of an immediate re-
sort, by the powers, to force. Russia's
action was inspired. it is officially stated.
by certain sympathy for Greece. but
SO many objections were raised by each
power in turn to this suggestion. that the
other course has been finally been agreed
upon.
1t Is thought that the simplest way
to carry out the threat. made in the iden-
tical note, will be the blockading OF the
Cretan ports. and the landing of forces
sufficient to insure the maintenance OF
order leaving future action. as to the
fate Of Crete to later Negotiations. This
was the view of Russia at the outset.
