UNAUTHORIZED.
Prince Constantine Disclaims
All Responsibility
For the Invasion of Turkish
Territory.
GREEKS TOWN.
Turks Cut Their Way Through
Grecian Forces
And Make Their Escape Though
Closely Pursued.

New York, April 12.-The Press prints
the following from its special CORES
pondent at Larissa, Thessaly:
I had a personal interview with
Crown Prince Constantine, commander
in-chief of the Greek troops at his head
quarters here this afternon. The prince
talked freely of the situation now con-
fronting the people. He said:
I am fully prepared to make war
when it becomes necessary. My troops
are in excellent condition and the war
like spirit prevails in the soul of every
man under arms.
g If the Turkish army should make
an attempt to cross the frontier and at
tack US, 1 should act promptly. I shall
stand by the decision, whatever may
happen, but I shall not do anything to
force the crisis.
g In the face of any popular demon
stratiOn favorable to a declaration of
war 1 am convinced that my soldiers
would prove true to their allegiance,
and would obey me, no matter what liz
6ueuce was brought to bear on them.
s. Therefore, 1 do not fear any hasty
action on their part without first con-
Sidering my orders
- The incursion into Turkish territory
by several rebel bands of armed Greeks
was wholly unauthorized by me, and
absolutely against my policy and my
instructions from the king.
g The attack upon the Moslems will,
by no means, be used as an excuse to
begin war, and shall do my utmost to
prevent repetition of such a violation
of the neutrality laws. The Turkish
position captured by these rebels Will
not be occupied by the Greek army, nor
will we aid the invaders in anyway
Trikhala, Thessaly, April 12.-The
plan of the insurgents was to occupy
BaItinO on the frontier of Macedonia,
in order to prevent the Turks from tax
ing up more advanced position. Dir
ectly the Greeks crossed the frontier,
their leaders issued a proclamation call
ing upon the Macedonians and Epirots
to rise for freedom.
There is an unconfirmed rumor here
that the insurgents are continuing their
advance unchecked by the Turks.
twenty-five of the Italian volunteers
have returned here being unable to
stand the cold weather.
London, April pa special dispatch
from TrikhaIa says that the Turkish
which was beseiged by the Greek in
surgents, has cut its way through the
Greeks with a loss of 80 men killed. It
is added that the fighting was stubborn.
1t was only at the fourth attempt that
the Turks were able to issue from their
barracks.
The insurgents, the special dispatch
further states, continued their march
into Macedonia and have captured the
town of Krania. Further, they pursued
the Turks close to Cipria which is two
hours distance from Grevena.
Through the operations which have
hitherto been so successful for the in
surgents the latter lost only three chiefs
killed and four men wounded, accord
ing to the special dispatch.
It is reported that the Turkish from
tier detachment yesterday fired ON and
who was carrying dispatches to CalcOl-
iVri.

PArRAs IS DESERTED.
Greece Will Furnish the World No
Currants This Year.

Washington, April ia letter has
been received in this city from Robert
L. Jenkins, United States consul at
Patras, Greece dated March 23, from
which the following extracts are made:
''PatraS has been comparatively quiet
for the past few days for all the sold
iers and peasants have gone to the from
tier. For several weeks every Greek
steamer and every train from PyrgOS
were loaded with eager, patriotic, en-.
thusiastic Greeks, ready for war. A
large steamer is now in port, loaded
with soldiers and horses, bound for Arta

war is imminent Several days ago,
when the soldiers were arriving in great
mum bers, all the small boats in the har

holds only five comfortably. upset and
in the confusion that followed they were
drowned in sight of the crowd on the
quay. The bodies were recovered,
wrapped in Greek flags and buried in
the cemetery here. 1t was very sad and
the city is in mourning.
There is an Italian opera. company
here this week. The first performance
was given last night and there was
only 10 people in the audience. Eight of
these were foreigners. The sentiment
of the town was against allowing the
opera to be given and out of respect for
the feelings of the people I remained
away, though I wanted to hear the
music very much. Business is at
standstill. The currant vineyards are

EDHEM PAsHA DIDN'T GO.
His Orders to Advance Were Counter
manded.

Constantinople, April 11-Oelayed in
transmission. 1.-The Turkish govern
ment informed the representatives of
the foreign embassies on Saturday last
that in consequence of the Greek in
vasion of Macedonia, Edhem Pasha the
Turkish cOmn1ander-in-chief was
marching on the Greek headquarters at
Iarissa. According to authentic infor-
nation obtained today. however, the
Turkish army has not yet started and
it is supposed that at the last moment
Edhem Pasha's orders to advance were
countermanded. Nevertheless, the
Turkish government seems to have the
intention of attempting to seize and
hold Larissa until the Greeks shall have
vacated the island of Crete.
It is pointed out that Krania, the town
in Macedonia which is believed to be in
the hands of the Greek insurgents and
the scene of the present invasion, is an
important strategic position threatening

AS SEEN IN EVANSTON.
For Second Time it Appears to be

the Talk of that Village.
Chicago, April 1.-THE Times Herald
saws:
TITS here. TT must be here be-
cause it was seen again last night at
Evanston. This time is was seen by
persons within the four-mile limit. Tt
is the air ship which has been disturb
ing the inhabitants of western states
for the last three weeks. The air ship
is supposed to have started from Cali
fornia. It is conjected that it is on its
way to Dwight, but that the strong
wind of yesterday blew it out of it's
course. Several persons had seen the
air ship through strong cocktail glasses
out west, but the fact that it was seen
twice within the four mile limit of
Evanston sets all such theories at rest
forever.
Several persons in Chicago saw
strange lights in the heavens about
o'clock. The lights Travelled and it was
at first thought they were shooting
stars. Professor James Carter seized a
glass and gazed at the celestial phe-
nomenon. He declared it must be the
air ship. Later Robert Lowen, 1926
Sherman avenue. Evanston, noticed the
moving light in the sky. The light ap-
peared to be over the lake and was
moving in a westerly direction. Lowen
got a field glass and was able to dis
cern four lights a short distance apart
and moving in unison. The first was a
bright white light and appeared to be
opera ted like a searchIight. Behind it
was green light and farther to the
rear were green and white lights set
closely together. F. Newland, employ
ed in Hill & Garwood's drug and candy
store, saw the ship. SO did r. c. Lib
bertOn of the Evanston life saving
crew, who was on duty at the station
during the early evening. y The large
glass at the station was called into use
and each person who looked through it
declared that lights both green and
white could be plainly seen. 1t was
decided to notify Professor Hough, the
astronomer at the observatory, and
learn if the peculiar phenomenon had
been seen through the observatory tel
escope. At the time Professor HOugh
was taking an observation of Jupiter
and had his instrument pointed directly
across the lake. He said that the OBJ
ject had not crossed the range of the
telescope and that to change the in
strument would be the work of several
hours.
Nearly an hour after the strange
lights had faded in the western heavens
George Glenn of Niles Center telephoned
to the Evanston police that the resi-
dents of Niles had seen the light pass
ing westward, a short distance south Of
the village
Nearly 200 persons gathered on the
streets of Evanston to gaze at the
lights, and each cOrrObOrated LOwen in
his statement that the lights were green
and white

But a Fast Moving Star Called
Alpha OrenOis,
That Has Attracted Attention
In Many States
AS A LARGE AIRsHIP
Seen By Thousands of People
In Chicago Last Night,
And Identified By Astronomers
as a Star.

Chicago, April 12-An the papers
contain long accounts of a brilliant
sight in the heavens last night, which
was viewed by thousands of people and
was thought to be the much talked OF
airship. But it has been identified as
fast travelling star, we'll known but
never before as brilliant as it has been
of late. A local paper says:
When Alpha Orenois, a star of the
first magnitude appeared in the east
ern heavens last night many residents
of Chicago and suburbs thought the
Kansas airship was paying them Wis
It, Professor Hough of Northwestern
solved the mystery, however, by prov
ing scientifically the identity of the
star, and explaining that it is a fast
traveller and gives out colored light.
This explanation may solve the mys-
terry of the strange visitor above west
ern states.
High over the taIlest buildings of the
city last night a strange light cleaned
and moved and was stared at by thous-
ands of people in the streets and on
housetops, who said it was the Kansas
airship.
Evanston and other towns in Illinois
and Wisconsin brought information
last night of a strange celestial visitor,
which was believed to be the same that
has startled the people of Kansas of
nights for more than a week. In the
face of these reports it was easy for the
multitudes of curious people TO believe
the double green light which hung in
the armament in the northeast was the
searchlight of the airship which began
its nightly tours in the arid CLINE Of
Kansas.
While thousands of people were stIl
watching the mysterious double point
of green light at 1925 o'clock this morn
ing it became suddenly dim and then
visible downtown it moved to the east
ward and apparently ascended.

TORNADO CONDITIONS.
Another Day When it is Well toKeep
Your Eve on the Sky.

The atmospheric conditions today are
very similar to those of a few days ago

the storm area is at Concordia, Kan,
and Topeka is right in the whirl. The
forecasts given out by the weather bu-
reau are that there will be local show

this evening and tonight.
The barometer this afternoon is low.
At o'clock this morning the thermo-

STILL UNSETTLED.
The Stockyards Case Before Judge
Foster This Morning.

The stock yards injunction case is still
unsettled. Judge Foster announced this
morning that the question to be decided
was what constituted a reasonable return
on the investment of the stockholders and
that to determine this question additional
evidence showing the expenditures and
receipts Of the company, as well as the
method of management. would be neces-
ssary. He announced that a special mas
ter to take this evidence would be ap-
pointed and ia the court room the attor-
neyS for both sides agreed upon the first
Monday in June the day for the final
hearing of the case
Several points involved in the case,
however, were determined by Judge Fos-
ter in the opinion which he read in the
United States circuit court room this
morning He held that the objections of
Attorney General Boyle on the juriSdic-
ton of the federal court were not we'll
taken, and that the plea of the stock
holders that the act passed by the last
legislature was class legislation was
not worthy of consideration. He also
stated that it was his opinion that the
stock yards company was certainly an
sWerable to the legislative power of the
states in which it conducts it's business.
The appointment of a special master to
take evidence was not made by Judge
Foster this morning. This will be left 20
the attorneys for the stockholders and for
the state, and whoever they agree upon
will be satisfactory to the court. The ap-
pointment will probably be made not later
than Wednesday.
