strong feeling exists among

navy department, owing to the
dePlorable condition OF the
Turkish navy and the inactivi-
ty of the Ottoman feet.
The news from Thessaly is
that the Turkish army, which
at first pillaged and committed
other excuses in the Greek
villages, is now under strict
discipline. The object Of this
change in policy by the Turkish
authorities, according to the
Athens newspapers, is merely
to gain the sindatures of the
inhabitants in favor of Turkish
rule. Meanwhile 10000 Mac
edonian peasants who had
crossed the mountains into
Thessaly have occupied the
abandoned Greek villages and
are waiting to gather the corn
if it ripens before peace nego-
tiations are concluded. In fact,
the seizure of the Thessalian
harvest seems to be a reason
for the sultan endeavoring to
protract the peace negotia
