roast pig with head to the left; roast or
boiled ham with thickest part on further
side of Platter; large birds, as goose or

birds are placed crosswise with heads on

ceive the meat as 1t is sliced, or extra

continue to be steadily pressed, al
though there is not much change in the
eastern situation. A very pessimistic
feeling prevails here at the failure OF
the powers attempts to coerce Greece.
The blockade of the Piraus seems as
gar off as ever and the war party is
bringing to bear on the government
with grave results. The porte has dis
PATCHED circulars to the representatives
abroad setting forth the Turkish grow
ing impotence at the prolongatlon OF
the crisis which is pressing heavily on
the already embarrassed exchequer.
The belief prevails here that the powers
are losing control owe the course of
events and nat their so-called concert
Is a failure. A new danger has arisen
through the circulation of a pamphlet
recitlng alleged Christian atrocities on
the Mussullmans in Crete II FLASK
which has greatly inilamed the Turks
and the government has been compelled
to take measures to prevent outbreaks
by the %populace.
