GENERAL HORACE PORTER.

General Horace Porter comes of RevO'
lutionary stock, his grandfather, Andrew
Porter, being one of Washington's most
valued officers. General Porter's father
was David Rittenhouse Porter, at one
time governor of Pennsylvania, and a
prosperous manufacturer. Horace Porter
was born just 60 years ago in Huntington,
Pa. He was well educated in his own
state, at Harvard and finally at West
Point. Soon after his graduation from
the military academy he was assigned to
duty in the South, then in secession. He
was an ordinance expert, so much of his
service was in the artillery branch, on the
stats of Mcclellan, Rosecrans and Grant,
where he earned a reputation as a gallant
and fearless fighter, as shown by his
brevets. He served in the Chickamauga
and Wilderness campaigns, and the first
assault on Charleston, where he was
wounded. General Grant was greatly
attached to General Porter, and made him
assistant secretary of war, while he him.
self filled the secretaryship. He surren-
dered his army commission in 1873, and
plunged at once into active business, being
first president of the West Shore railroad,
vice president of the Pullman Car COM
pany and associating himself with other
great corporations in a directive capacity
He is well known in the field of literature,
being an author of repute and a much
sought after public speaker.

COLONEL JOHN HAY.

Colonel John Hay is native of In
diana, SO years of age. He graduated at
Brown university in 1858, and began the
practice of law in Illinois in 1861 Presi-
dent Lincoln appointed him assistant
secretary, and kept him in that capacity
throughout his administration. He also
acted as Lincoln's adjutant End aide de
camp, and was breyetted lieutenant col
onel and colonel. Entering the diplo-
matte service in the SOS, he was at various
times in charge at Vienna, first secretary
at Paris, and secretary of legation at Ma
drid. In 1870 Mr.. Hay connected himself
with the press, and for nearly six years
devoted himself to editorial work on the
New York Tribune. In 1875, he
entered politics, taking an active
part in the presidential campaigns of
1876, 1880 and 1884, being then a resident
of Cleveland, o. President Hayes APP
pointed him first assistant secretary of
state, which post he filled for nearly three
years. Since his retirement from office,
Colonel Hay has resided chiefly in this
city, where he occupies palatial home on
Lafayette Park, and has devoted himself
to literature with the greatest success,
some of his best known works being "Pike
County Ballads, "Castilian Days" and a
history of Lincoln, written in collabora-
ton with John Nicolay. John Hay has
also been frequent contributor to the
highest class Of periodicals and to him has
been ascribed the authorship of the anOny-
NOUS novel 1.-The Bread Winners" which
caused such agitation in labor circles.

war NOW INEVITABLE
General Belief at Athens That
Nothing Can Prevent Ac-
tive HoStilitieS.
Center of Interest. Transferred
From Crete to MaCedo-
Man Frontier.
Latest Move of the Greeks
Indicates a Decision to
Stand Firm.

ATHENS, March lit is the general
belief here that nothing now can pre-
vent war, and the government has its
plan of campaign fully prepared. The
cabinet had long session during the
day as to the attitude to be taken in
face of the coercive programme of
Europe, and it is reported that a de-
cision was reached to take active meas
ures, as being the only solution possible
for Greece.
The center of interest is now trans
ferred from Crete to the Macedonian
frontier. 1t is evident from the haste
which the government has displayed in
getting all it's available troops off by
sea before the commencement OF the
blockade that there is strong convic-
ton that they win be needed at once.
With the sea route closed. the trans
portation of troops must be overland,
and this would be an
Exceedingly Slow and Difficult Process,
owing to the lack of horses and the
very incomplete railway system in the
northern portions of Greece. Many of
the war correspondents have already
arrived at Volo, Larissa and other
frontier points. The Greek officers on
the frontier find the utmost difficulty
in restraining their men, and the de-
parture of Crown Prince Constantine
for the frontier has been deferred on
the advice of the generals in command,
who fear that his presence would have
q dangerously exciting influence upon
the troops.
1t is reported that the Turkish forces
on the Macedonian frontier are raising
a double line of Notifications and being
constantly reinforced from Salonica.
