WILL LAND TROOPS.
British and Italian Transports
Loaded with Soldiers Are
Off Canea.

Canea, March 10.-The reply of Greece
to the demands of the powers for the
evacuation of this island by the Greek
troops and the withdrawal of the Greek
fleet from Cretan waters has been acted
upon promptly, to some extent, by at
least two of the powers.
When the sun rose this morning it was
seen that there were strange vessels at
anchor here and it soon after developed
that they were British and Italian trans
ports loaded with troops, evidently part
of the foreign force, which, as the adj
mirals recommended, will occupy all the
principal seaport towns of the island.
The Turks assert that these troops
will be used to drive the Greek forces
out Of Crete but this belief is not shared
by the foreign population generally.
Owing to the receipt of advices saying
that band of armed volunteers from
Greece were on their way to Crete with
the intention of reinforcing the Cretan
insurgents. the foreign admirals agreed
to dispatch a cruiser to prevent their
landing.
The Mussulmans who were besieged
at Candamo have arrived here on board
an Italian Warship.
