In the East Are Now Growing
Brighter Every
Day.
THE BLOCKADE MAY BEGIN
According to st. Petersburg StotY-The
Italian and French Fleets Not in It.
Generous Greeks.

Paris, March 15.-The Eclalr pub
fishes report of an interview with
M. Delyannis, prime minister of
Greece, in which he declares that
Greece Will not assent to the estab-
lishment of an autonomist adminlstra-
tion in Crete. The premier is quoted
as saying thai be believes the pros
poets of the maintenance of peace are
excellent.
BLOCKADE RUMOR.
st. Petersburg, March 15-It is as
serted that the admirals commanding
the foreign squadrons In Cretan wat
ers, with the exception of the Italian
and French commanders, have re-
eeivsd orders from their governments
to blockade the Plraeus, the town of
syria on the Greek island of that name,
and the port of VOlo, in Thessaly.
GENEROUS GREEKS.
Savannah, March 15.-The Savan-
nah Greeks will remain in this city
until there is active warfare In their
country. A prominent member of the
Greek colony is authority for the above
statement. Men are not so much
needed as arms. King George has
$4,000 men at his command and in five
days can raise that number to 100000.
Money is what is wanted and this is
being received daily. A Greek firm in
London is said to have sent King
George last week $5OO,OOO and others
are sending large amounts.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE MEANS ONLY PARTIAL PROTECTION.

OcUIs
Washington, March I5.-When the
senate met the galleries had filled to
overlooking. Sixty-eight senators
were present. Committees were an
pointed to notify the president that
the house and senate were ready to be-
gin work. A recess was taken until 8
p. m.
IN THE HOUSE.
The opening of the Fifty-fifth con-
gress in extraordinary session was
witnessed by an immense crowd of
spectators. OF 357 men who constitute
the membership of the house 1872 have
never served in that capacity, while 16
more have served in former cor gress-
es, making altogether 14S new mem
bers and 209 who served in the last
congress. There are 206 republicans,
122 democrats and 20 fusion s1lyerltes
and popullsts.
REED ALL RIGHT
The house was called to order at
noon. Reed was put IN nomination
for speaker by Mr.. Grosvenor, of Ohio.
Mr.. Richardson nominated Bailey, of
Texas, and Jerry Simpson proposed
the name of John c, Bell, a Colorado
populist. The vote stood Reed 1919,
Bailey ia, Bell 81, Newlands (of Ne
vada) 1.
The announcement was received
with applause. Messrs. Grosvenor,
Bailey and Bell were appointed to
escort the ST eaker-elect to the chair,
where he addressed the house.
The speaker was then sworn in by
Representative Harmer and the oath
administered to the new members.
The presidents message was sent in
at 3 is p. m. and read.
MKINLEY's MESSAGE.
The message proved rich in statistics
bearing on the deficiency in the rev.
enue and recommended the immediate
passage of the tariff bill to raise the
required income. But no reference
whatever was made to the Cuban
question.
He regretted the necessity of calling
the extra session, which he, neverthe--
less, considered indispensable, be-
cause of the condition in which he
found the revenues of the govern
ment, the current expenditures being
greater than the receipts for the last
three years. With unlimited means at
our disposal, we are steadily increas-
ing the public debt by borrowing
money, which condition is uniustifia-
BILE and should be corrected.
The revenues from all sources for
Che fiscal year ending June 30, 1896,
were $409,475, ,40S; the expenditures,
$434, ,07S, ,654. The receipts since 1913
have been insufficient to meet the to-
tai expenses by $137,729,46O, and no
Improvement has been made during
the first half Of the present fiscal year.
To replenlsh the gold reserve the gov
ernment has in three years issued
1852, ,3l5, ,406 IN bonds, and not only are
we without surplus in the treasury,
but by the increase in the public debt
the interest account has been increased
81 1873 Ala since '92.
The presidenst continues by sug-
gesting that ample revenues must be
supplied, not only for ordinary ex-
