CHANGE OF TIME.
New and Improved Train service on
the Northwestern.

A change of time in the running OF
passenger trains on this line was put
in effect Monday morning. The morn
ING train going north which was due
here at 1910 now arrives at $40, and
goes south at 1O:45, instead of 12:O7, as
heretofore. The afternoon passenger
train from the south which formerly
arrived at 1915, now gets here at 2:Oo.
There is no change in the evening
passenger going south, which Is SILL
due here at $751; The change in time
only asects the passenger trains, the
freiphts running as heretofore.
Corresponding changes have been
made on the main line. The train
which leaves here at l0:45 going south,
makes close connections at Monico
with the south-bound train on the
main line there, being a wait OF only
five minutes, and it starts back imme-
diately upon the arrival of the train
from the south, on the main line. The
tedious wait of passengers going south
or coming from that way here, has
been entirely done away with by the
change The day passenger running
each way on the main line has been
made fast train all the way from Chi
caoo to Ashland and return. Leaving
here at lO:45 a. M, you arrive at Mil
waukee at about and at Chicago at
8 O'Clock the same evening; and leav-
inc Chicago at about 3 a. M, you ar
rive here at 2:0S in the afternoon.
But the shortening Of time between
Chicago and Ashland is not the only
Improvement which the company have
made on this division. They have es-
tablished parlor-car service and are
now running elegant parlor cars on
No. , and II, the two through day pas
senoer trains on that division, giving
it as good a service as any line in the
state. The travelling public will APP
Dreciate the effort the officials OF the
C. & n. w. have made for their con-
yenience and to increase their comfort
and it will serve to make this one Of
the most popular lines in the state.

THE FIRST POSSIBILITIES.
Plans of Campaign Decided Upon by both
Countries.

Athens. April 1S.-The Greeks hold
that 1t was an attempt upon the part
of the Turkish forces to occupy n STRAIT
egic position near Mount Anulipsis, not
far from Nczeros on the neutral zone,
which led to the encounter on Friday
between the Greeks and the Turks.
This, II is added was used at Constan-
tinoplc, ms a reason for ordering Ed
ham Pasha, the Turkish commander
in-chef to assume the offensive and
led to the rupture of diplomatic rela-
tions between the countries.
The so-called outrage of Prevcsa,
this morning. when the Turkish batter
les there sank the Greek steamer Mace
donia, further justified the Greeks, In
the minds of the Atheninns, in waging
war TO the death against Turkey.
Little news of a reliable nature has
been received here or is allowed 10 leak
ont regarding what has really trans
pred on the frontier.
1t is known, however, that the whole
frontier of Thcssaly has been blazing
with murderous firing since early this
morning and that the Greeks have
captured Il fortified position at MeneX,
in Macedonia.
According to the general understand
ing here, the Turkish plan of campaign
is "A concentration of the Turks near
the important Greek frontier town of
Tyrnavos, with view of forcing the
mountain passes leading toward Laris-
sa. One report which is generally
credited. has it that Edham Pasha, at
the head of 12.ooO men. has already
| begun this movement, and rum0rs in
this respect are floating. the substance
of them being that the battle which
Is expected to be fought at or near
Tyrnavos, has already commenced.
The Greek plan of campaign. so far
as it is understood by the Athenians, Is
found on the defense of Larissa. in the
first instance. an attack upon that
place having been anticipated and pre-
pared for by occupying and taking ev-
cry possible advantage of all strategic
points. The country here is admirably
suited for defense ana while this de
fense is undertaken, the Greek fleet is
relied on 10 destroy the coast ports of
Epirus and Macedonia. The Greek be-
lief in ultimate success is based on the
expectation of a universal rising of the
Maccdonians and Epirotes, as soon as
the Greeks succeed In winning a bill.

WAR HAS NOW BEGUN.
TURKEY GIVES THE WORD
Question Who Is Responsiblc-The Greeks
Press the Fighting and Appear to
Have Slight Advantage.

COnstantinople, April 1.-THE cotn-
Gil of ministers, after n session at the
palace to-day, declared that war had
broken out on the frontier owing to
the incursion by the Greeks on Turkish
territory, and Eihem Pasha, the Turk
ish military commander, was ordered
to assume the offensive.
1t was also reported that the council
of ministers had decided TO recall AS
sim Bey, the Turkish minister at Ath-
ems, and had given passports to Prince
Maurocordato, the Greek minister at
Constantinoplc.
The situation Is summed up in n de-
tailed circular sent this evening to the
Turkish Representatives abroad. This
circular recalls the weeks invasion of
Turkish territory. and states that the
newest incursion was participated In
by Greek troops, thereby establishing
war. The circular expresses the hope
that the powers. in n spirit of justice,

Ihereupon the Turks opened fire, the
Greeks replying. The fight lasted
from early in the evening until mid
night, and ended in Il repulse to the
Turks. This morning the Turks again
attempted to occupy the same stratc-
gle position and again they were re-
pulsed. After the firing ceased. orders
were issued to the Greeks To maintain
their positions, but TO avoid provoking
encounters with the Turks.
The line of fire extended from Mount
Analpisls post TO klcphtika Gentilia, n
distance equal TO ninety minutes
march, which the Greeks promptly oc-
cupied. The Greeks cannonnded the
Turks from the Greek position at
Tsamteja, in the rear. The cannonad.
ing caused much excitement at other
points. Since noon strong bodies of
the Turks have concentrated in the di-
rection of Mount Analipsis. Al five
o'clock the firing slackened. 1t is cx.
pected that the Turks will attempt Il
