A Force\ 5000 Men Sent Forward to
DomokoS.

Lamia. May 1.-Two thousand
Turks have been sent TO Lake Nezero,
south of DOmokos, to close the road
between Domokos and this port. An
outpost skirmish occurred near Domo-
kos yesterday morning.
Three thousand Greeks have been
dispatched to reinforce the Greek troops
at DomOkOs. The efforts of the Greek
commanders are directed toward pre-
venting the Turks from surrounding
DOmokos. This latter is apparently
the plan of Edhem Pasha. and would
possibly result in the capture Of the
main body of the Greek troops under
the Crown Prince Constantine.

CONFERENCE OF EDUCATORS.
Annual Meeting Of the North Central
Association of Colleges.

CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-The second annual
meeting of the North Central Association
of Colleges and Secondary Schools was
held at the Lewis Institute to-day. About
a hundred men and women prominent in
educational affairs OF the middle and West
ern States were present, including Charles
Kendall Adams, president of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin; Delos Hall. professor
in Albion College; George S. Burroughs,
president Of Wabash College; Charles A.
Schaeffer. president of the University of
Kansas City Central High School: Freder-
ick l.. Bliss, principal of the Detroit High
School; George It. Carman, director of
Lewis Institute; William F. King. presi-
dent of Cornell College and Newton c.
Daugherty, superintendent of schools
Peoria, Ill.
After an address of welcome by Director
Carman, President Adams read his annual
address. He characterized the gifts of Sll-
800. 200 to the University of Chicago during
the last five years as the most momentouS
impulse given the educational movement in
the history of this country. He said the
great purpose of education was not so
much to give information as 1t was to de-
velOp the facilities of the scholars. He con-
sidered the primary departments of our
schools and colleges as the weakest part
of our educational system and urged the
Importance of giving more attention to the
proper education of the young. A general
debate followed on a resolution looking to-
ward the checking of the alleged tendency
to intruSt freshmen classes, especially in
large universities to inexperienced teach
ers. The resolution was finally adopted.
Various committee reports were read and
adopted and committees appointed to serve
during the present year.

KANSAS LEGISLATION.
Probable Compromise as to Railroads
-Radical Insurance Bill.

TOPEKA. Kan, Feb. 12.-The movement
in the State Legislature for a general re-
duction in railroad freight rates has re-
suited i'm offers of compromise on the part
of the railroad companies. For several
days past there has been every indication
that the Legislature would adopt a maxi
mum freight law, making general reduc-
tions. Finally representatives of the lines
interested came before the Senate commit
tee on railroads and stated that the rail-
roads would agree to make horizontal re-
duction of 10 per cent. in freight rates. pro-
vided a maximum rate should not be en-
acted. This proposition was rejected. but
the Senate committee offered a counter
proposition agreeing to knock out the max
imum schedule provided the railroad COM
panies would agree TO 20 per cent re-
duction on grain, stock and coal and 10
per cent. on other freights. The railroads
have this proposition under consideration.
General agents of life-insurance companies
doing business in Kansas are here seeking 10
defeat the bills recommended for passage in
both houses of the Legislature which re-
quire life companies TO invest 90 per cent. of
their net profits in Kansas securities. the
same to be deposited with the state treas
urer and TO be taxed Several OF the agents
appeared before the House and Senate COM
mittees to-day and urged a reconsideration
of the committees action. They stated that
every company will withdraw from the
State if the bill becomes law, and that
the agents will be thrown out of employ
ment. Members of the House committee
informed the agents that no reconsidera-
ton would be had, and that the bill would
become a law.
The Senate has by strict party vote
passed the initiative and referendum resolu-
ton submitting the proposition of chang
ing the Constitution as TO include the
principle TO a vote OF the people. The sill
