GREEK FLEET IS NOT TO HINDER
The Turks at Volo in Order to Save the Town-The Bravery of the Turks Was Extraordinary-ph
 Latest News.

Athens, May 7-The Greek fleet at yolo has been instructed not to hinder the en- trance of the Turks in order to save the town from destruction.
 Gen. Smolenski's artillery, engines and some cavalry have proceeded to A1myros by sea. Crowds of volunteers continue to arrive here and 1000 Italians, Ned by Riccotti Garibaldi, left tonight for the frontier A dispatch from Parsalos via Larissa, says:
 During Wednesdays battle onr losses were not heavy, but it is impossible to exaggerate the stragetie and moral im- portance of the Turkish victory. Our soldiers are hunting for umbrellas. which are almost a military necessity, the sun is so broiling hot.
 It appears that the Greeks intended to resist to the uttermost. On the platform at the railroad station were barricades of turf and forage and the houses had been strengthened by heaps of turf and were loop-holed for rifles. The coolness of the Turks was extraordinary
 Three soldiers stood together in ad- vance of their comrades on a path cross ing a meadow, while whole battalion of Greeks fired at them. They did not coEr descend to stoop CT lie down but fired away cooly until their skirmishers came to their aid. The stoicism of the vound- ed is equally remarkable. One young fel- low an Albanian, had ball in his foot and while under fire stopped and. while doing so, discussed with his companion the best way of retiring. Many slept all night without getting the wounds dress ed. The courage and endurance of the Turkish forces are prodigious. Many of them fought on Wednesday from dawn until seven in the evening without the least distress snH

 Wilmington, N.

F. s. Peck, of Raleigh, I. C., Mrs. Holdan, of Whining ton, conducting the opening exercises of prayer
 The report of the corresponding sscre- tary, Miss Annie w. Armstrong, showed the following receipts and expenses:
 "The entire receipts of the Woma n's Missionary union for the var are $53,- 40704; home missions, $29,93131; foreign missions, 23,476.39.
 Because of Ghe great financial de- pression all over the country. the droughts in some places, the floods in others, the offerings probably represent more real sacrifice than in any previous year.
 ''The total expenses were s1,S55.66, of which the foreign board paid s93046 (Chrstmas offering expenses. s1S043); the home board s750. and Sunday school board $200."
 The report of the enrolment committee shows a large representa- tion from the stateE of the south ard the southwest.

And the People Clamor for Pea ce-The
 Greeks Whipped.
 London, May 7.-The Athens corre- spondent of the Times says ..
 The news of the retrea: from Pharsaios was at first received with consternation. but the public has already accepted the situation, and now regards the retreat to Domol5os as a stragetic movement di- rected by prudence. II is generally con ceded that Gen. Smolenskis defense of Veles tino has restored the reput ation of the Greek army and wiped out the af- fairs at Larissa. The old bellicose at titude of the Athenians has vanished completely. On all sidss the desire for peace is expressed, and should the gov ernmen; invoke the intervention of the powers 1t would probably be supported by public opinion. The anti-royal feeling is rapidly diminishing. The victory at Velestino and the change of cabinet on account of the retreat from Larissa have not changed public feeling.
 All the inhabitants of Domokos have fled to Lanai. 4apfi

Montgomery, May Special)-Early chis morning the Exchange hotel was dis covered on fire The fire originated in the kitchen, and in short time spread over the first rooms in all the three stories of the rear end of the building. There was difficulty in getting at the fire, as it ragged furlously on the second and third floors. The guests were all aroused in time to prevent any causal- ties.
 The proprietor, MT. West, knew noth- ing as to The cause, but the frequent fires about the building evidently cause suspicion that it was of incendiary ori- gin.

 London, May S.-A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from Volo, dated Thurs day, says:
 The battle at Velestino was renewed at 5, o'clock this morning. Gen. Veles- tino had sent endorsements to protect his left wing owing to events at Phar- salos and hence the disparity between 1 the Turks and Greeks is greatly in creased, the former being greatly supe- rior in guns, arms and men than the Creeks Osman Pasha commanded yes- terriay. TheiAlbanians carried the Gym osophile hills, which were the key to the situation and thus opened up direct com munica tion with the Turks at Pharsalos. Gen. SmoleEski, with excellent foresight and judgment. prepared for the retreat which was undertaken gradually, the Greeks on the heights holding their own until night when they retired to the next ridge, mile near town and the retreat was conducted orderly.

VOLO ABOUT TO FALL.

London, May "A dispatch to the Times from Velestino, dated noon yester- day, says:
 The Turkish forces have reached the outskirts of Volo. As yet there is no confirmation of the rumors that the town has already fallen, but in any case it's capture is only an affair of few hours as the defepses on the land side are very feeble. .a
 A portion of the Greek troops have retreated by the coast road to Almros, from which point it will probably be con veyed by sea to Livada and join the rest of the army at Domokos.

 Headquarters of the Turkish Army In Thessaly, Pharsalos May 6-Oelayed in transmission.)- .)-The Turkish army to- night is bivouacing in the eighty villages surrounding Pharsalos, captured from the Greeks. The battle began a, O'CLOCK in the morning. After skirmishes by the advanced posts of the opposing forces, the Greek artillery opened fire wi h great precision. But the Turks pushed for- ward, exposing themselves 10 the enc my's fire with the greatest sang ftoid.
 The Greeks then made a fatal error in leaving the commanding positions which they occupied and retiring upon the plain, which was commanded on all points by our batteries that wsre brought into action as soon as the Greeks left the hills. The scene which followed wae both interesting and cruel. The Greeks from all parts of ehe plain were converging towards a S,one bridge span ming the river, and which was the only means of getting over. The mass of hu- manity at this point was constantly growing, when the roar of the Turkish artillery began. Ths Turks obtained ,he exact range of the enemy and shell after shell fell and exploded in the midst of the fugitivaa. The havoc created by the shrapnel was terrible. Gradually, how ever, through this decimating fire the Greeks crossed the river
 i The Turks, who were then covering the plain like bees, met with a strong re- sistance while attacking Vassali. where the Greeks from hidden positions opened a furious fire. In the face of this the Turks advanced with ma arvelous tcrneJty and carried the village not so much by force of arms as by the fear which their splendid insouciance inspired in the enemy. Owing to the fact that it was designed to commence the decisive en- gagement tomorrow the Turkish division determined to attack the Creeks on the flank only arrived half an hour before the close of the combat today, having march, ed eighty miles, The Greek guns swhie they opened well, ended badly, while ours were served even better than usual.
 The attack upon Vassali was made without any previous plan. The men were ordered to capture the place and they advanced quickly, shouting as didly
 ! T saw a Turk wounded in the leg la d. vancing to the attack on all-fours.
 The correspondent of the Associat ed Press is writing this dispatch inthe midst of the bvouac at Edhem Pas,ia's hea1- quarters. The general and staff at tine same time are forming a little group around the lantern studying the war map for tomorrow's operation.
