Columbus, Ohio, February 1.-THE
stockholders of the Central Ohio Rail-
road Company, as reorganized, met here
to-day. J. II. Collins, President, made
statement concerning the circular
sent to them by Joseph II. Rieman,
VIM. II. Conkling and Basil B. Gordon,
dated January Z, 1897. The circular al
legged that the rental of the Central ONO
was withheld by the Baltimore d ONO
railroad. Judge Collins said the re-
celvers OF the Baltimore & Ohio were
not operating the Central Ohio railroad
under lease at all, and cannot be com
PEELED to do so. They are operating Il
under an order of the United States
Court. The system Of accounts that Is
treated as mere pretext Cfor holding
back as alleged. the rental) is required
bv the order of the court.
The statement then goes into details
showing why. in the judgment OF Mr..
Collins. hostile measures against the

pany. whose property is leased to the

THE TROUBLE IN CRETE.
| Great Enthusiasm in Greece in Favor OF
the Union of Crete and Greece.

Athens, February 1.-THE despatch
of the torpedo fotilla, commanded by
Prince George of Greece, for the island
| of Crete, has caused the greatest en-
thusiasm among the populace, espec-
tally as il is stated that the Prince mas
orders to prevent the landing of any
Turkish troops on that island. 1t de-
velops that il was the King who urged
the government 10 despatch the no.
tilla. and so soon as he had obtained
the consent OF Premier Delyannis, he
personally issued the orders in order
to give additional effect TO the pro-
posals.
When Prince George embarked a
salute of 800 shots were fired by the
crowd ashore as a parting salutatloh'
and the people assembled at midnight
at the palace and gave their Majestles
an ovation. The students at the same
time paraded the streets, singing pa
triotic songs and cheering for the
King and for the union of Crete wlth
Greece.
The fighting of Kissamo, where the
Mohammedan inhabitants were De-
sieged in their houses tor several days,
was desperate. Thirty Christians ana
one hundred Mohammedans were Kill
ed. and fighting. it is reported, Is sun
proceeding about the convent OF Chrls-
opyghi, near Canea.

Central Cretan committee is preparing
to support the Cretans with arms am
munition and supplies on great scale
The despatch concludes with the re-
mark;
1T is possible that direct collision
will occur betweenthe Greek and Turk
ish forces
LONDON, eDIudIH IL hC al w
Gazette this afternoon says there Is
reason to believe that tne government
of Great Britain regards the despatch
of the Greek flotilla to Crete as very

the gravest consequences.

been killed or wounded i'm the fighting

M.A.HANNA COAL co,
Has Fixed the Price for Mining for
1897, in the Pittsburg District,
Lower Than Ever Before.

Pittsburg, Pa, February 1.-THE NJ
A Hanna Coal Company to-day practic-
ally dictated the price for coal mining
in this district for 1897 by having their
diggers in the Panhandle mines sign
ironclad contracts agreeing to work for
60 cents a ton and allow the firm to re-
tain 10 cents per ton until the end or
the year. The mines started in full at
this rate. This is the lowest price
these miners have ever had to work
for during the lake season. The action
of the above company has fOrestalled
attempts of the men to secure better
price and has produced CONSERVATION
in the district. The men had hoped to
secure between 20 and Is cents.
