ALL GREECE IN ARMS.
Active and Energetic Preparations
for War.
No Signs OF tho Nation Reccding from the
Bold stand Taken by King George and
Ills Premier Ammunition aud stores
Being supplied Turks Dlsarmed.

ATHENS, March 6.-Advices received
here yesterday afternoon show that thu
force of Christians who are investing
Heraldion number IS, 600 men, The in
surgentS have stopped all communica
ton with tho town by land and it Il
certain that unless the foreign wal
ships actively intervene in behalf o.
the MoSleuls the town will shortly be
compelled to surrender.
The small detachments of sailors and
marines landed from the various war
ships still occupy the town, but with,
out the aid OF the fleets they could
make but feeble defense against the
overwhelming numbers Of the insur-
gents
The greatest activity is being dis
| played in Athens In making prepare
tons TO give battle to the Turks should
they cross the Greek frontier The
ministry of war presents a most ami
mated sEene. Officers In uniform throng
the corridors and orderlies are con-
staDtly being dispatched In every direc-
ton with orders to different command
ers. The telegraph wires are constantly
busy with dispatches to officers in dis
tant places The most energetic meas
ures are being taken for the mobillza-
ton of the forces,
There is a similar scene of activity in
the ministry of marine, where every
thing possible is being done to place
the feet in readiness for any contin-
gency.
There is no sign anywhere of the
king or government receding from the
position they have taken, and 1t is ON
inous that, in the face of the threat Of
combined Europe, the warlil5e prepare
tlons are being carried on with fe-
verish activity. The most intense
enthusiasm is everywhere displayed,
and the people evince no
fear of the result of an appeal to arms.
They know full well that the Greek
army by itself is no match for the nu-
mertcally superior Turkish forces, but
they also know that in the event of
war the whole of southern Europe
would be set on fire. 1t is this that
the powers wish to prevent If they at
'N'AA " NoG AbIto 70 COlupcl NFtGCG 10
accede to their demands there is a
very strong probability that Greece
will apply the torch that will start a
conHagration, the result Of which no
one can foreteE. 1t is believed here
that the powers, seeing the chance o.
their becoming involved in a general
war viii, owing to their conflicting in
terests, make haste slowly in attempt
ing to force the Greeks to withdraw
their support from the Cretan Chris
tiaus, 1t has been decided that there
shall be general mobilization Of the
Greek forces, and to this end the two
classes Of reserves that had not been
summoned previously have now been
called out
The reserve forces alone give total
Of l04, 500 men, and behind this is what
is called the territorial army, which
numbers upwards OF 146, 900 men, not
by any means an insignificant force.
Ammunition and supplies for the
troops are being supplied as rapidly as
possible and in a few days the whole
available war strength of the nation
viii have been prepared for any event
uality that may occur.
