The CASE OF CHAPMAN.
Allen Brought 1t Up in the senate-Ar.
tagonized by Hoar.

tagonized by Hoar.
washington, May 14.-In the senate
today the sugar investigation Of 1894
was recalled by the introduction of
resolution by Allen reciting the circum-
stances OF the investigation, the refusal
OF Eiverton r. Chapman to testify. his
conviction in the courts as contuma-
clous witness, and the present efforts
toward his pardon. The resolution
proposes that Chapman be brought to
the bar OF the senate to purge himself
OF contumacy as prerequisite to par
don. Allen sought to secure immediate
action on the resolution, but it went
over on objection of Gallinger and
Hoar. The latter criticised the resolu-
ton as giving away authority of the SEN
ate, and said he would propose an
amendment with a view to having
Chapman punished unless he purged
himself OF contempt without reference
to the question of pardon. The con-
slderation of the resolution will be in
order tomorrow.
Morgan made statement relative to
his resolution on Cuba. He said the
committee on foreign relations had
considered the question of referring
the resolution to committee, and had
not agreed. The committee desired.
however, that the resolution 70 over
till noon tomorrow, in order to have
statement laid before the senate at
that time. On Morgan's suggestion the
resolution went over.
A resolution by Butler, requesting the
president for information relative to
the sale of the Union Pacific railroad,
was presented and went over.
The SENATE bills for public buildings
at Deadwood, S. D., to cost 5000, 600,
were passed.
The senate then took up the calendar
and passed bills as follows:
For the relief of certain citizens Of
Montana, claiming the benefits of the
homestead laws: granting to Montana
80, 600 acres of land in aid of an asy-
lum for the blind; appropriating $174,-
600 to Charles P. Chouteau for extra
work on the ironclad Et]ad.
The immigration and kaleidoscope
bills were referred, but went over on
objection.

THE TURKS At VOLO.
Found the Town Deserted
on Their Arrival.
sMOLENsKrs ARMY CUT IN TWO
Constantine's Army Occupies All the
Deffles Through Which the
Turkish Army Must Pass.


Athens, May 1.-THE Turks have
completely occupied and burned Veles-
tinO.
At 1880 o'clock Thursday evening,
the defeat of the Greeks was complete
and the pass to Volo open to the Turks.
The searchlights of the warships on
the bay flashing up the mountain sides
were of great assistance to the retreat
ing Greeks, as they showed the roads.
Over dozen cannon were abandoned
and captured by the Turks. Two hun
dred wounded soldiers were brought to
Volo. The correspondent is of the
opinion that many Greek soldiers were
left on the field. It is impossible to
estimate the killed.
Advices received from the frontier at
O'Clock this afternoon are that Cen
eral Smolenski's shattered army was
cut in two. The left wing retired to
Almyro. What was left of the right
wing came toward Volo, broken and
demoralized.
The retreat across the mountains was
almost as bad as the panic which re-
suited in the change of base from Tyr
navos to Volo. .
The scene of the more recent panic
was wild and almost indescribable.
On Thursday and Friday, the populace
filled the streets of Volo with their
household goods. Peasants from Sur
rounding villages entered the town and
added to the confusion. Brigandage be-
came common. Five steamers were
filled with refugees. Scores of caiques
carried fugitives to the islands.
The correspondent succeeded in get
ting on the last steamer. On this boat
were 1900 men, women and children,
packed thick as behring's. The press
representative landed at Chalus and
from that place drove to Athens.
Dispatches received from Domokos,
the headquarters Of the Greek army,
today say that Turkish cavalry, in
making reconnaissance, approached
within few miles of Domokos, but re-
treated on the approach Of the Greeks,
who followed the Turkish cavalry to
the advance posts of the enemy's lines.
Prince Constantine's forces occupy
all the defiles through which the Turk
ish troops must pass when they adj
vance, notably those of Agorani and
Tiamassi. The inhabitants of Domo-
kos are going to the interior.
The admiral in command of the
Greek squadron at volo telegraphed to-
day saying that the French and British
consuls at Volo, accompanied by the
commanders of the British, Italian and
French warships, had conference at
Velestino with Edhem Pasha, the
Turkish commander. The latter prom
Used to respect the inhabitants and
property at Volo, provided the Greek
squadron agreed to refrain from hostil-
tiles and to retire beyond range. The
Greek admiral accepted these terms.
All foreigners at Volo have embarked
for other ports and the town is now
empty.

oREEcE's GREAT MISTAKE.
On the Eve Of Victory, the Retrea
From Larissa Was Ordered.

On the Eve Of Victory, the Retreat
From Larissa Was Ordered.
London, May lathe Athens CORE
spondent of the Daily Chronicle says:
The real and only cause Of the Greek
retreat to Pharsala was the blunder OF
one of who mistook the retreat of the
enemy for q forward movement de-
signed to outf1ank the Greeks. and
therefore ordered a hasty retreat
Crown Prince Constantine left Larissa
because he believed the exaggerated re-
ports of danger to his forces. It is q
fact, however, that on the evening OF
the retreat, Edhem Pasha. despairing
Of breaking the Greek lines, had order
ed his army to retire to Elassona. while
the sultan had dispatched special
commissioner to the Greek government.
The state Of the Turkish army at the
moment was simply pitiful, and terror
reigned at the Yildiz kiosk.

Velestino, May 1.-THE Greeks
have evacuated Volo. Detachments Of
marines have landed from British, Rus
sian, French, Austrian and German
warships to guard the town.
The foreign consuls have arrived to
confer with Edhem Pasha, the Turkish
commander.
AS this dispatch is being sent. the
Turkish troops are entering Volo. The
Greeks, who fed to Almyros will re-
join the main body Of the Greek forces
at Domokos.

which was total, was only SO, 900, but
The hall had q historic interest. II was

Washington, May 14.-The ways
and means committe of the universal
postal congress today practically com.
pleted the preliminary consideration OF
the amendments which have been pro-
posed to the international treaty. IN
doing this they have followed the prac-
t;ce common in many legislative bodies
of passing over informally the various
amendments which 1t was known WOMB
give rise to any extended discussion,
and have acted on such as the delegates
were generally agreed on. The more
important questions remaining und's-
posed of relate to the universal postage
stamp, the proposed establishment q
all branches in postal rates, and the
proposition for reduction in the pay
OF mails in transit.

CUBA IN THE SENATE.
Some Opposition Shown to Senator
Morgan's Resolution.


Washington, May lathe Morgan
Cuban resolutions was discussed at
considerable length in the senate. For
the first time since the debate began,
the opposition sentiment expressed it
self. The speeches were not OF kind
to stimulate the galleries, being in the
main calm and dispassionate reviews Of
the situation in Cuba.
Hale maintained that it would be
most unwise to embraass the president
by the adoption of the resolution at q
time when he was investigating the
subject. He intimated also that the
acceptance of the resolution would
lead to the withdrawal Of the Spanish
minister, and q termination of diplo-
matte relations between Spain and the
United States. The senator said few
real Americans were imprisoned in Gu
ba. He had never heard of a genuine
Yankee being among them. They
were all Sanguillys or Delgados or
Ruizs. Returning to his associates,
Hale said that no one ever heard of a
Jones or Smith or a Frye as victim
Of one Of these outrages. The senator
said the real motive for the Morgan
resolution was shown in the recent
statement of Morgan that the passage
Of the resolution would prevent Spain
from making a loan, and thus prevent
her from putting down the insurrec-
ton.
Gallinger dissented from this state
ment, showing the question of loan
was but one ground on which the
friend of Cuba had favored the recogni-
ton of Cuban belligerency. There
were, he said, other and higher grounds.
Morgan also dissented.
Referring to the reports that another
Spanish loan was being negotiated,
Turpie said:
"Spain is now on its last legs fnan-
cially. Shall we fill up her treasury:
Are we charged with supporting and
maintaining the Spanish credit? 1t is
our duty to support the armies and
navies of Spain on land and sea in her
vain efforts to subject the patriots of
Cuba once more to the oppression of the
Spanish yoke? think not. But the
senator from Maine says that if we pass
the resolution, the Spanish minister
will ask for his passports, break up dip
lomatic relations and 60 home. do
not sttach much Importance to that
consequence. Ministers have hereto
fore received their passports and gone
away without destroying the political,
geographical or physical equilibrium of
the American hemisphere. I do not
attach the slightest importance to the
fact that the Spanish minister may be
instructed to ask for his papers, sus-
pend diplomatic relations and go home.
Vest secured an agreement to reso-
luton directing the committee on COM
MERGE to inquire into the causes of the
recent floods on the Mississippi river
and report to the senate next December.
Among the favorable reports was one
for public building at Aberdeen, S.
D., to cost $4,000
Chandler, from the committee on
census, reported bill for taking the

A resolution was agreed to request
ing the secretary of war for information
as to the steps to locate deep-water
harbor at Port Los Angeles, or San
Pedro, CAL, in accordance with the
report of the commission.
