BATTLE AT DHOMOKO.
Turkish Forces AssaiI the Greek

ATHENS, GREECE, May 17-Edhem
Pasha advanced upon Dhomoko with
10000 men this moning. Later dis
patches say the fight began at noon and
soon extended along the whole line OF

attacked both wings of the Greek army.
The assault was especially violent against
the left wing.
report reached here this afternoon
that the Turks had captured DhomoKo
but it has not been confirmed by later
dispatches, and is very doubtful. 1t is
certain, however, that a furious battle

lines. z part of the Turkish army ad-
vanced as far as Tsouhian, but the
Greek artillery compelled them to re-

1t is reported tonight that the Greek

center. being outnum pered three to one
but that tho Greeks ultimately repulsed
the attacking force. General Mavromich-
alis, one of the Greek commanders, was
wounded. The fighting ceased at $3.50
o'clock tonight. At that time the Turks
had retreated slightly from the. center
and right of the Greek position, and the
Greeks had abandoned their outposts on
the left.
The attack upon Dhomoko was CON-

LONDON, ENG, May 1.-THE powers
are fast making the worst possible mud
die OF their mission of mediation between
Greece and Turkey. They are directly
responsible for the last miserable collapse
OF the Greek arms in Epirus.
The Greek troops in Fridays fighting
completely retrieved their good name by
splendid valor and martyr-like sacrifices,
worthy OF any soldiers on earth. The
days battle closed with everything in
their favor. They would have been al
most certain to have reaped the reward of
their courage the next day. but orders
came from Athens to stop all offensive
movements. The reason for this was that
the powers had asserted they had inter
fered with negotiations for an armistice.
They offered to restrain the Turks if the
Greeks would keep quiet, thus gaining a
truce in fact, if not in name. 1t is now
known that the powers agreed to do what
is beyond their power to execute. The
Turks are vigorously pushing their opera
tlons, while The Greeks are crippled by
the actions of their impotent mentors.
The Sultan remains complete master Of
the situation. He has put forward claims
which Europe unanimously declares to be
absurd and preposterous, but this feeling
is chang ging to dismay when it is consd-
cred the Porte refuses even an armistice
until its demands are conceded Active
interference by Europe is impractica BILE,
al least until after long consultations. In
the meantime the Turks can take Athens.
There is material for cynical satisfaction
for American observers in to-day attitude
of the impotent wrath of all the support
ers OF Salisbury's policy. They display
the greatest surprise and anger because
the logical effects of their action, which
has been most obvious from the outside,
now dominate the Eastern situation.
The silly idea that the solution of the
problem was the punishment of the
Greeks at the hands of the Turks has led
them into difficulties which are far more
perlous than the ante-belIum troubles.
England, however, is the only country
which has wholly overreached herself.
Russia Germany ana Austria will settle
the problem TO suit themselves when
ready. They will control the finances both
OF Turkey and Greece in some form and
Great Britain will have only a nominal
part in the arrangement

Not the Least of His Trials LIS the
Wear and Tear Upon His Hands.

Not the Least of His Trials LIS the
Wear and Tear Upon His Hands.
That the lot of the summer car con-
ductor is not an enviable one can read
lily be seen from the following story of
one who has charge of an open car on
one of the Traction company's lines in
this city, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord: "Just look at these hands," he
said, exhibiting a pair of palms that
were chapped, hardened and covered
with a yellowish substance. Anyone
looking at them would naturally sup
pose that it has been long while since
soap has been used on them and yet
l washed them thoroughly before leav-
ing the depot for this trip. This yellow
color is caused by the bars, which L
handle going from one step to another
to collect the fares. The handle bars
are of brass, and as this metal is very
sensitive and subject to weather
changes, which affect it in the form of
layer of rust, |, using thel bars as
support, get the same on my hands.
While this polishes the brass, it makes
my hands coarse and hardened, and this
also accounts for their yellow appear
ance. IT is very bad for the hands, es-
pecially if you happen TO have a flesh
wound or a sore, which, coming in con-
tact with the rusty bars, is liable to
poison your blood, but what is to be
done? You can't wear gloves, as it is
hard to handle cash with the mittens
on"

Nice Girls.

Of Matthew Arnold as a school-exam-
:Ter the author of pages from a Pri-
vate Diary" has this to say: "Arnold's
reports are very good reading, but his
methods of examination were some
times highly poetical. l remember
tale told by fellow-inspector of a
class of girl-pupil teachers that he
asked Arnold to examine for him. Ar
mold gave them all the excellent mark.
But said the other inspector, surely
they are not all as good as they car be;
some must be better than Others Per
haps that is So, replied Arnold, but
then, you see, they are all such very
nice girls"

Washington Letter.
From our Regular Correspondent

l.
WASHINGTON, September 3, 1897
Secretary Gage is surprising some of
those who supposed that he would
devote his entire time to strictly
financial matters, by giving his per-
sonal attention to all the various
branches of the treasury department,
and the result is that he is likely to
be more thoroughly posted on all the
workings of his department than any
secretary of the treasury we have
had for a long time. And he isn't
overworking himself, either. He is
merely bringing his wide business ex-
perience to bear upon the working Of
the department. just as he did when
at the head of the big Chicago bank.
He has a wonderful knack of speedi-
ly disposing Of business
Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, cor
rectly says: Organism and free
silver has gone over the brink for
ever. New industries are being pro-
jected, capital is coming out, business
Is reviving, and, on the whole, this
long-looked-for and much-talked of
era OF prosperity is not on the way,
ont actually here"
Members of the administration are
not disappointed in the amount pro-
duced by the Dingley tariff up to date.
The deficit of about twentysix mil
lion dollars for the months of July
and August was no larger than it
was expected to be. Large advance
importations lessened the tariff re-
celpts and large expenditures neces-
sarily had to be made in the first
quarter Of the new fiscal year. The
Dlngley law is ll"~right, and as soon
as the advance -importatiOns are
used up it will produce quiteas much
revenue AS Mr. Dingley and the treas
ury exp rts estimated in advance Of
its enactment, and the treasury will
soon accumulate sufficient surplus
to resume the Republican policy of
reducing the national debt by the
retirement OF bonds.
Ihe attempt ofthe silver Democrats
of Pennsylvania to compel W +.
Harrity to retire from the Democrat
ic National committee is regarded in
Washington AS the beginning Of a
fight to the death upon the gold
Democrats by the silver Democrats.
The silver Democrats have got the
party organization In their hands and
they are apparently fully determined
that those members of their party
who decline to fall down and worship
at the shrine of the free coinage of sill
yer shall be kicked out of the party.
