Bradstreet's Report.

NEW YORK, April -Bradstreet's
says: The situation as whole shows
no gain. Staple lines are only fairly
active. Overhows, washouts and floods
continue to do great damage in the
Mississippi and Missouri river valleys,
through a portion of which general
trade remains practically at a stand
still. Rainy weather, extending from
the Central Western to the Northwest
ern spring wheat states has rendered
country roads almost impossible, with
the natural effect upon business. AS
the region threatened includes the
richest portion of the cotton belt, the
prospect for delay in planting second
time indicates the possibility of a
heavy reduction in acreage this year.

TT LOOKS WARLIKE.
FIGHTING ON THE TURK
ISH FRONTIER.
Greeks Reported to Have Invaded the
sultan's Territory The Two Forces
Have an Engagement-The Situation
Decidedly Serious.

LONDON, April 10.-The correspond
ent of the Times at Grovena says that
at o'clock yesterday morning 1,5OO
Greek bandits crossed the frontier be-
tween Metsoro and DislSata, where
they encountered the Turkish troops.
The fighting lasted through the day,
with some loss of life and a number of
minor casualties.
A dispatch received at the Turkish
Headquarters here from Groveua at i
p. m. says that the fighting between
the Greeks and Turks continues. The
Turks, following the instructions of
Edhem Pasha, have surrounded the
Greek irregulars and a greater part of
the Turkish division stationed at Gro
vena under nakki Pasha is now adj
vancing.
1t is impossible to distinguish
whether the invaders are supported by
any substantial portion of the Greek
regular army, as the Greeks have taken
up position in the middle of forest.
But the correspondent is informed that
the moment the Turkish officers ascer-
tain the presence of the uniforms of
the Greek regulars in the ranks of the
aggressors Edhem Pasha will order
the advance of the entire Turkish
army. The situation is most serious.
The Athens correspondent of the
Times says it is reported that the in
vaders consisted of $500 carefully
picked men who had been equipped by

ELECTIONS IN KANSAS.
Party Lines Loosely Drawn-Women
Cast a Decided Vote.

TOPEKA, Kan. April S.-Municipal
elections were held in Kansas towns
Of the first and second class yesterday
While nearly half the cities went Re-
publican, they did so by reduced ma
iorities in almost every instance. To-
pelta, the Republican stronghold, gave
the Republican ticket majority of
1.5OO, against 5000 majority for Nc
Kinley last fall. At Lawrence the ma
iority is reduced to 800. Leavenworth
puts Democrats in charge of every de-
partment of the city government, and
the fusionists finish first-best at Fort
Scott. Atchison and Wichita give mar
row margins for most of the Repub-
lican candidates
In the cities of the second class party
lines. as rule, were not closely
drawn. An analysis of the returns
shows that non-partisan and citizens
tickets were in great favor. In several
cities. including Girard, Winfield, Sen
eca, Larned and Stockton, the enforce
ment of the prohibitory law was the
issue. and at each of these places the
wei anu ury ioTCcS WdBcu Ol1
ter fight. 1t may be significant that
only one of these-Seneca-voted for
enforcement of the law. At Larned,
Winfield Girard and Stockton the vote
was decisive Tor wet" or wide-open
administrations.
The women of Kansas are privileged
to vote at municipal elections, and
they availed themselves of the franchise
even more generally than the men, in
proportion to their respective voting
strength. In several places, notably
Fort Scott, their ballots were con-
siderable factor in determining the re-
suit.
Robert L. Marshman, the Repub-
lcan nominee for mayor, and nearly
the whole of the Republicr1 ticket,
was elected by majorities ranging from
800 to 500 votes in Kansas City, Kan.
