Athens, May 9.-Disregardful of the
powers promise TO check Edhem Pasha's s
army while peace terms were being dis
cussed, the sultan's forces have never
for a moment halted in their advance
upon Athens. Greece is not wholly
blameless; Colonel Manos' latest effort
to snatch victory In Epirus was as
much in violation of the temporary
torious attack on the Greeks Thessal-
ian headquarters in Domokos Monday.
These are the principal developments or
the last twenty-four hours: Edhem
Pasha's army has occupied Domokos,
from which Prince Constantine's Greek
army of $4,000 men, after a desperate
all-day battle with $4,000 assailants, has
retreated. The Greeks have abandoned
Almyros, which has been occupied by
1900 Turks. General Smolenski is re-
treating on Kephalosi Colonels Vas
SOS and Limbricis started for the front
with the whole of the garrison of Ath-
ems.
Next Stand of the Greeks.
1t is expected the next stand Of the
beaten, ill-officered, poorly equipped but
magnifcently courageous Greek troops
will be in the pass of Thermopylae,
which Leonidas, with 800 Spartans, sue
cessfully defended against a huge Per-
sian army The Greek fleet, which has
been ingloriously inactive throughout
this war, will be able to shell the mount
ain defiles through which the invading
Turkish army must move to attack the
pass. The fact that the whole Athens gar
rison has been sent to the front proves
that the government is at last con-
vinced of the futility of pareying with
the victorious Turks, and means to
stake everything on final battle in the
pass where the most glorious page in al
the history of the Hellenic people was
written.

is an abundance of evidence that such
crimes have been committed, but it has
been impossible to fasten them upon the
per rpetrators.
Some years ago like condition of af-
fairs existed and acts of violence resulted,
the matter finally finding it's way into the
courts, then the trouble stopped for
time, only to break out with renewed
fury short time since. The owners of
herds who suffered losses by theft taking
the law into their own hands and wreak-
ing vengeance upon those suspected of
"rustlipg." From acts of self-protection
the matter has grown into feud, and
men are evening up old scores, shooting
and killing in a promiscuous manner.
In commenting on the trouble the Enter
prise says: "In the meantime most
dangerous state of affairs exists and the
opposing factions of cattemen are liable
to come into con tiict at any moment
with much bloodshed as result"

THE LABOR CONFERENCE.
Called to Order in st. Louis This
MOrning-Plan to Mobilize the
Unemployed.

st. Louis, Aug. 3O.-E. V. Debs, M. D..
the delegates to the labor conference,
which arrived this morning.
Debs would not venture an opinion on
the probable outcome of the conference.
"Is there any probability of sympa-
thetic striker" was asked.
81 hardly think SO. In fact the dele.
gates are not empowered to order a
strike. They can do no more than re-
port back to their respective bodies the
sense of the convention. Government by
injunction, as exemplified in the struggle
of the miners, has been carried to the
extreme and the people are revolving.
expect the convention to take some de-
cisive action in this matter"
Ratchford has plan, that of calling
upon every working man and woman in
the country to contribute cent q day of
their wages to fund for the relief of the
striking miners. This money, he thinks
will amount to between $1,000 and $4,000
per day.
Shortly after II O'Clock the convention
was called to order.
W. B. Prescott, president of the Nation
al Typographical union of Indianapolis,
was chosen temporary chairman, and W.
Q. Pearce of Columbus, temporary score
tary.
Mr.. Prescott appointed a committee on
credentials.
Considerable controversy arose over
naming the committee on resolutions
which was moved.
Delegate Sovereign shouted: II am
sick and tired of resolutions; this is time
for action" I move, Mr.. Chairman, that
the motion to appoint committee on
resolutions be amended to read: son
resolutions and plan of action"
This brought out food of amend
ments and motions.
fhe matter was tabled and the meeting
adjourned until 2 p. M, at which hour
the report of the committee on creden-
tials be presented.
PLAN TO MOBILIZE UNEMPLOYED.
Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. Bon. P. Gar
rick, president of the Brotherhood of
Painters and Decorators of America, says
that proposition will be presented to
the St. Louis convention to mobilize the
army of unemployed in the vicinity Of
Pittsburg in the event of determined
effort on the part of the operators to
start the mines with imported labor. 1t
is understood that President Garrick says
that an appeal will first be made to the
railroads not to handle coal dug at nom
union mines. II this fails, then the
mobilizing will be considered. These
men, he says, will not come here to
destroy property or take part in riot
or insurreotion, but to show that the
working Glasses are a unit in crying for
relief.

DOES NOT DISQUALIFY.
Solicitor General Fall Renders An
Opinion ON the County Normal
Institute Law.

Hon. Placido Sandoyal. Superintendent of
Public instruction, Santa Fe, N. M.
Santa Fe, N. M. Aug. 20, 1S97.-Dear
Sir: I am in receipt of your letter of
August "a, with request for my Official
opinion as to whether or not the failure
of teacher to attend the county normal
institute, as provided by chapter 6l Of
the laws of 1897, serves to disqualify
such person from teaching in the COM
mon schools of this territory. Replying
thereto beg to say that, in nay opinion,
it does not. While it is true that section
OF that act provides that "it shall be
compulsory upon all teachers teaching
within the county to attend the county
normal or to show a certificate of
attendance of some normal insti-
tute held within the year." no pro-
vision as to how teachers shall be
compelled to attend is made in the act.
In other words, the legislature declares
duty but fails to provide any penalty tor
it's non-performance. The Legislature
having failed to provide penalty, there
is no authority invested elsewhere to
supply the omission. It would be purely
matter OF speculation to attempt to
decide how the legislature intended at
tendance upon normal schools to be
compelled. 1t is part of the con-
temporaneous history of the law
under consideration, however, that
al amendment attempting to i'm
pose a disqualification from teaching
of one year upon those not attending
the schools was defeated when offered.
While this fact furnishes no adequate
guide to the construction of the law it at
least illustrates the folly of attempting to
legislate into the act penalty which the
legislature declined to insert. For these
and other reasons which might be given,
am of opinion that no such penalty as
you suggest-and indeed none at all 40.
companies noncomp pliance with the
provisions of the law in question. Very
truly yours. ALBERT B. FALL,
Solicitor General of New Mexico.

COlfaX County.

Candido Arellano, Springer boy, was
arrested for stealing cattle in that place
the first of last week. but at the trial was
acquitted and discharged. On Tuesday
he was rearrested on the same charge,
and will have another hearing next Thurs
day.
Eddie Manning, the son of the man
ager OF the Maxwell farm, was seriously
injured by a vicious broncho pony last
week. The boy WAS in the act of throw
Ing saddle on the animals back, when
the brute kicked him squarely ia the face
with both hind feet, rendering him un-
conscious for two hours, but luckily
breaking no bones.
Wm. Shafer, few days since killed a
valuable colt, shooting it with rifle, and
he didn't mean to either. Mr.. Shafer
was camping in the mountains on Bonito
creek, where the festive wild cat is quite
numerous. Hearing noise in the brush
near the tent he thought ferocious feline
had him, and picked up the gun and turned
loose in the direction of the sound. The
first shot had no effect on the ANIMAL and
second was taken. When the racket
subsidsd Shafer made an investigation
and found his pet colt, not a wild cat, had
fallen by his unerring aim.
The air ship has again been seen, this
time at Catskill. Last Monday morning
the early risers saw the concern floating
over the town in southessterly direc-
tion at an elevation of about 300 feet.
1t is described as a fish shaped boat about
30 feet long, fitted at one end with wheel
modelled something the same as the screw
on steam ship, which revolved rapidly.
From small windows along the sides
lights threw the shadows of more than
one of the passengers on the ground as it
swiftly passed out Of sight. The men
who saw this wonderful sight fail to
state where they were the night before.

AMERICANS IN CUBAN PRISONS.
GENERAL LEE DOING GOOD WORK
FOR THEIR RELEASE.
Spanish Officials at the Palace More
Courteous Since the Stand He
Took in the Ruiz Case.

NEW YORK. March 25.-A dispatch
to the World from Havana via Key
West, says:
General Lee is quietly pushing for
the release of one American after an
other and one by one they are coming
out of prison The tone and manner Of
Spanish officials at the Palace since the
stand he took in the Ruiz case and
since Mr.. Sherman took office are very
satisfactory to the General. II seems
to be the belief in the United States
that General Lee is making d further
investigation of the Ruiz murder. This
is a mistake. The Spanish authorities
may be doing SO, but General Lee has
investigated and has reported the facts
and his conclusion is that it was a
plain murder
The impression here is that there will
be no change of ConSul-Genera1 soon
on account of the near approach of the
hot season and of the number of unset
tied cases. The story that General Lee
agreed to Scott's release on his prom
Use to leave the island is false. Cen
eral Lee was not party to such agree
ment Scott will leave because the
authorities insist upon it, although
they failed to convict him.
Complaints are coming in from Amer
lean plantation owners that strong ef-
forts are being made to force them to
pay taxes. They resist because very
few have been able to work their land
or grind their cane. The Government
has not afforded them protection. Not
only have they not made any money
for two years, but owing to insufficient
troops, their property has been dam
aged or destroyed. They have refused
before to pay taxes under such circum-
stances, and will continue to refuse,
pending a decision from Washington.
This is one of the questions Mr.. Olney
had under consideration for long time
and left unsettled.
A strong effort is being made to Sc
cure the release of Melton, one of the
Competitor prisoners, on account of his
sickness.
General Lees family will leave the
last of the month.
