and with the Argentine Republic, which
were amended by the senate last ses-

this administration. President Cleve-
land insisted on the retention in the
treaties of clauses authorizing the de-
livery of the citizens of a nation to the

treaty. The senate amended this so as
to make it optional, but not necessary
for the United States to surrender il!

Labor Trouble ut Now Britain.
New Britain. Conn, March 1O.-The
effort OF the New Britain Knitting COM
pany to adjust matters with the 20
girls who went out on q strike Mon
day. owing to a cutdown of per
cent, has proved futile, and unless the
strikers places can be filled at once il
will be necessary to shut down the fac
tory, which will throw over 125 other
operatives out of employment. The
company wishes to submit the matter to
arbitration, but the strikers will not con-
sent. According to their version they
submitted to a 10 per cent cutdown some
time ago. with the promise of having
the reduction restored with the advent
Of better times. Many of the girls, IL
is alleged, could not make 60 cents a
day on account Of the short hours and
unsteady work. OF late business has
apparently improved, and the restor-
alton Of the old rates was looked for
but IL is claimed by the members OF
the company that, owing to competition
the reduction was necessary in order
that they may market the goods. The
girls are determined not to return to
work under the cut.

At Canes.

Canea, March 10.--The Greek vic,
consul and his staff and all the Greel

TO Admiral Canevaro, have embarked
for Greece.
and the GORDON of Turkish troops drawn
around Akrotiri has ceased, and the in
surgents are now removing their camI
with a view to avoiding "a naval BON
bardment.
1t has been ascertained by the foreign
consuls at Gambia that the report, for.
merly denied, of the massacre of 40,
persons in villages In the Sitia distric.
is correct.
The insurgents at Candamo. on hear.
ing that autonomy would be granted t.
the island, wrote to the British consul

conference.
All the Greek subjects at Retimo hav,

Washington, March 10.-Chairman

will be ready to introduce I'm the house
very soon after congress assemblies on
the 18th. Speaking Of the report that
the law might provide that the duties
assessed should go into effect immsdi-
ateiy on the introduction of the bill. Mr..
DinGley says that 1t would be impossible
under our constitution to make a law
retroactive. Duties. he said. must be
assessed according to the law on the
statute books at the time goods were
imported. The law could provide that
goods still in bond should pay the new
duty IL they had not been withdrawn

London Dis patches.

Times from Canea says that each sid,
accuses the other of beginning the com.
bat at Alirotiri, but the truth seems &
be that as soon as the insurgents begaI
to advance the Turks began to fire. The
captain of II. NJ. S. Barfleur had the i'm
surgent leader brought on board b,
Greek officers from the gunboat Alpheos
and warned him that unless the insur
gents retired TO their former position
the necessary action would be taken {
compel them.
The situation is very similar 10 tha
previous TO the bombardment. but tn,
fleets are anxious to avoid firing. Grea
precaution is necessary lest the. insur.
gents should succeed i'm drawing the fir,
in order to make political capital GU
OF the incident.
The Athens correspondent of TIL,
Times understands that Greek squad
ron is blockading several Turkish vessel:
in the Ambracian gulf.
The Athens correspondent of The Daily
Chronicle says: The kernel of the stu
alton is the fact. ineyplicable TO every.
body here. that Russia is pursuing
Greece with terrible vindictiveness."
The reserves continue TO arrive from
the provinces, as the greatest enthu.
siasm is displayed. The full text OF tn.
Greek reply to the powers was not pub
lished in the Athens papers until last
evening. 1t is generally approved.
The Ephemeris, the government or.
gan, asserts that orders havo been senl
to Commodore Sachtouris TO maintair
the position OF the Greek fleet in Cretar
waters even though the powers threaten
% use force. and that Prince George
himself has visited Platania 10 instruct
Colonel Vassos to remain where he is ir
the interior of the island
This. however. conflicts with q reporl
that Commodore Sachtouris. on boars
the Hydra, has already left Crete.
The government has formally pro.
tested to the powers against the expul.
sion OF the Greek consul from Crete
The Turkish garrison has rspulsed aI
attack upon IIierapetra by 1000 Chris
tianS. who occupied stragetic poInts
near the town.
The Greek torpedo f1otilla under com.
mand OF Prince George. has been or
dered TO join the Eastern squadron ol
the Greek fleet.
In the house OF commons yesterda, ,
Sir William Vernon Harcourt asked the
government for promise that the Brit.
ish forces should not be used agar Vt
Greece before parliament had been con.
suited. Mr.. Balfour. first lord OF the
treasury. declined to pledge the govern
ment To th" course suggested by Sir
William Vernon Harcourt. but said the
ministers wished parliament 10 feel that
they were acting with full sense OF theii
responsibility and In behalf OF Cretan
liberty and European peace.
Sir Charles Dixie invited Mr.. Balfour
10 agree TO make a statement on Thurs
day next with respect tn the plans Of tho
powers i'm view Of the nature OF the
Greek reply
To this Mr.. Balfour answered that ho
did not think the negotiations would be
far enough advanced to make such a
statement practicable on Thursday.

Bimetaliisrn Must Wait.

Washington, March l0.-The Evening
Star says:
1t is understood that the president will
not appoint members of an interna-
tiohal bimetallic conference commission
or take any steps toward calling a con-
ference until after the expiration of the
special session OF congress. The presi-
dent has in mind a very comprehensive
plan for dealing with the money Ques-
tion. 1t is understood that he will at
first confine negotiations with foreign
governments to the usual diplomatic
agencies.
All ambassadors and ministers to for
eign governments appointed by Mr.. Nc
Kinley will be given special instruc-
tions to devote particular . ttention to
bringing about friendly understanding
Of the monetary question. They are ex-
pected to assume an attitude friendly to
bimetallism and to exert what influence
they can toward inducing the countries
to which they are accredited to give the
matter serious consideration.
