Those Dreadful! Sores

no more pain. l cannot be too thankful

THE INUNDATED HAMLETS.
Great Suffering of Flood Victims Along
the Receding Rivers.

Cincinnati Feb. 2s.-At all river
points from Pstsburg to Maysville the
river is falling very rapidly. Every
where above here navigation is re-
sumed. Danger is over In all the in
undated up river towns. Suffering at
Portsmouth, When, 1t was the greatest,
is diminishing. The same may be said
of Huntington, Catlettsburg, Hanging
Rock Aberdeen and Maysville, where
the inundation drove out hundreds of
families.
From Maysvile down to Cincirahati
the flood is at its worst. Below Gin
cinnati the tributaries are falling rap
idly, and though the river is very full
the high tide current of ten to twelve
miles an hour Is carrying the water
down very rapidly. No serious dam
age or losses of property and life have
been reported from up river points
within the last 30 hours. Right here
in Cincinnati and vicinity the situa-
tion Is at its worst. Upper Cincin-
natl, at Pendleton, is pretty badly
flooded. At least hundred families
are driven from dwellings. They are
amply provided for by organized char
been driven from home, and many cell
lars are full of water.
Down the river at Delhi, Riverside,
Coal City and Addyston, some families
have been compelled to abandon their
homes. Newport, on the Kentucky side
of the river, suffers most proportion
ately. Over 300 families have been
driven to higher ground. Large details
of police are employed day and night
giving relief Some deliver provisions
from boats to people lodging In the
second story of their homes. The viii
lage Of Bromley, with almost 700 in
habitants, is almost wholly flooded.
The dam of the Great lake at Lud-
low Lagoon is in great danger. 1t is
probably within the facts to say that
along the Cincinnati river front on
both sides of the river, 600 families
have been driven from their homes,
and as many more compelled to live
over flooded cellars. 1t may be expect
ed that tonight or tomorrow morning
navigation will be resumed at Gin
cinnati and all other points above and
below
1t is estimated that 5000 workmen
in Cincinnati and the Kentucky towns
and cities opposite here have been
thrown out of employment by the stop
page Of the inundated factories, to
say nothing of those kept from work
by inundated homes.

KING GEORGE GRIEvED..
Tho Greek Ruler Discusses the Attitude
of the Powers

OF tne IOWerb.
London, Feb. GA dispatch to The
Chronicle from Athens saws: During
an interview with King George OBJ
tanned by your correspondent on We'd
nesday. the king said: Il cannot but
express my profound astonishment
and grief upon learning that the rep
resentatives of the great powers not
only permitted Turkish force to employ
as military base a sphere they had
taken under their protection, in order
to impose upon it neutrality and
peace, but also positively caused their
cannons to be fired upon Christian
people driven by outrage and massacre
to struggle for life liberty and religion.
Nothing in the world till these events
occurred would have induced ne to be-
lieve in the possibility of such an act.
Il utterly fail to comprehend why
Europe, instead Of following historic
precedents in Italy ard elsewhere, al
lowing the Cretans to declare by pie
biscite what suzerainty they should
desire, should attempt to force upon
them a regime alien to their feelings
and inevitably destined. to result in
further complications"
Mr. Henry Norman, the correspond
ent of The Chronicle, says that he is
authorized to state that Greece is fully
prepared to accept the decision of
plebiscite.
King George and his government re-
iterate that it is impossible for them
to retreat from their decision in regard
to Crete, which is supported by the
whole nation. 1t Is stated that King
George has sent the Prince of Wales
an open worded telegram saying that

RUSSIA WARNS GREECE.
Must Withdraw Troops and War
Vessels from Crete.
WILL BLOCKADE THE PIRAEUS
II the Warning Is Not Obeycd Within
Three Days-Kiug George CritlcIzes the
Attitude of the Powers-Great Britain
Would Force Autonomy for Crete.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 26.-Russia,
through the Russian minister at Ath-
ems, M. X. Onou, has called upon
Greece to withdraw all of her troops
and her fleet from Crete within three
days. The semi-ofIicial announcement
was followed by a long and involved
statement of the motives actuating
Russia, namely: That to prevent the
extension of the revolution to other
portions Of the Turkish empire, i'm
perilling the peace of Europe. a stop
must be put to the action of Greece
which is in opposition to international
law. Before negotiations for future
Cretan constitution can be entered
upon, 1t is asserted, Pussia has re-
solved to restore order in Crete. Then
after the Greelt evacuation under the
protection of the powers an autono-
nous government will be installed un-
der the suzerainty of the sultan.
In this policy. it is claimed Russia
is supported by France Germany and
Austria. Throughout the entire state
ment neither England or Italy is mem
toned, but Greece is warned that
should she, in blind misconception of
her interests, allow herself to he ex-
cited by self seeking friends to persist
In her present attitude, under the false
idea that the powers are not united,
because at the outset one or another
has not concurred in Russia's propos-
ais. Russia is resolved to take repris-
ais, the first step being the blockade
of the Praeus. The powers considered
the ErnnIF Of tn n,,t ~
the question, and it is asserted, in the
consciousness Of their absolute sup
port, that Russia will be in position
to prevent the Cretan question from
imperiling the peace of Europe even
should any individual power refuse to
accede to the proposed measures.

TO REAPPoRTIoN PENNSYLVANIA
A Bill to Away with the CongressmeR-at-
Lnr4A.


Harrisburg, Feb. 28-In the senate
yesterday Mr.. Vaughn reported from
the committee on congressional appor-
tionment a bill to reapportion the con-
gressional districts OF the state. The
bill apportions the state into 80 dis
tricts doing away with the two Of
fees of congressman at large. By the
provisions Of the bill Philadelphia and
Allegheny each gains a congressman.
Mr.. Sproul introduced a bill to make
reduction of 40 per cent, more or less,
in the Philadelphia telephone service
charges, and to establish the maxi
mum charges of the whole state. 1t
makes the maximum charges within
radius of two miles from the ex-
change, Sc a month in all cities with
population of 100000. and 81 in all
other cities, towns and villages. An
additional charge of 81 per month for
each mile beyond the two mile limit
is allowed, and where two telephones
are subscribed for by one person the
maximums within the two mile radius
are to be SIS land $3.50, according to which
side of the 100000 line the population
is on. The penalty for violation of
the act Is fine Of $500.
In the house the bill repeating the
local option law in the borough of Ver-
mona was killed by vote of G6 to 70,
less than constitutional majority
voting. The same fate befell the bill
repeating the prohibitory law in Fay
cite county.
Both houses adjourned until Monday
evening
