On the contrary, the Turkish army is dis

like gentlemen taking their pleasure. They
love it. and they are willing to work hard

To take an instance, there was a rumor
last night that Turnavo had been taken,

Turks in Complete Possession of the
TOwn-Panic in AImyros.

LARISSA, May 10.-The Greek feet has
left Volo, but the French, Italian and Brit
ish guardships remain. The town is quiet
and has been occupied by the Turkish
troops. A considerable number of the lat
ter have taken up positions on the sur
rounding heights. The bulk of the Ottoman
army, however, has been withdrawn and is
marching in another direction. Quantities
Of arms and ammunition and a number of
ambulaaces were captured by the Turks at
Volo. All the heights commanding Pier
sala are now occupied by the Turks.
Edhem Pasha, the Turkish commander,
all of his generals and a number of officers
of lower rank have been decorated and
many of the Turkish officers nave been pro-
NOTED.
A fresh division of Nizams, armed with
Mauser rifles, have arrived here and will
proceed to the front.

We're deserted by the Greek troops. 1t is
said that when the municipal authorities
asked the military commandant what they
were TO do when the Turks arrived he re-
piled: DO what you like; it's no concern
The Greeks at Almyros are in a state of
panic. The newspaper correspondents with
the Greek forces are subjected to the Sc
verest censorship. General Smolenski is
highly praised, but the prevailing opinion
is that the majority of the Greek officers
have had only the smallest practical train
ing and entirely fail to command the con-
fidence of their men.
The Turks found a quantity of railway
material at the Volo station, but they were
unable to use the engines, as the Greeks
had removed the essential parts. The
French naval attachments saluted the OF
toman troops and the latter responded.
The Turkish officers complain of the nom
resistance of the Greeks and declare it is
not war, but merely a military promenade.
The opinion is expressed here that the
Greeks, are avoiding q serious fight in order
at Athens in the event of a revolution.

ELKHART, Ind, May 10.-A daring rob-

Saturday night, but the news was not re-

Thomas McDonough, the station operator,

While one of the robbers held the men at

McDonough of 81, took some change from
the till and blew open the safe, from which
he secured $50. The force of the explosion

Donough and the two tramps were then
driven into a refrigerator ear and locked
up. They remained there several hours be-

ton. The imprisoned men made an outcry
and kicked on the door until they attracted
the attention of the train men, who re-

below had been trying for some time to call
McDonOugh, but had not been able to do
so, and had instructed the passenger crew
at Granger. There is no clew to the rob-
hers.

the English correspondents sent from the
scene of hostilities. They were obliged to
adopt the plan of posting their messages
TO Atheg 5. but even then many of these
were not forwarded. The minister of war
issued official reports daily. which were in

plains the inaccuracy obvious in so many
cases. The crown prince, who understands
English perfectly. altered the news so as to
make it favorable to himself. For instance,
in a telegram to a New York newspaper
describing the cold reception given him at
Larissa, the prince changed it to 'enthus-
iastic' reception. When the correspondents
went TO him in a body and protested vigor-
ously he answered evasively. The Greek
disaster was due primarily to Constantine
himself. He destroyed the morale of the
army by ordering the evacuation of Kurt
sioyali and the retreat on Tyrnavo, and
then he ran away in a shameful flight from
Larissa when the ~disgraceful scene was
witnessed of a Greek colonel shrieklng with
terror. AL cursed Constantine for desert

for the disasters which followed, such as
