SITUATION IN CRETE.
Foreign Admirals Issue Fresh Proel

Foreign Admirals Issue Fresh Procls-
matien.y
LONDON. March 24.-The Daily
chronicles special correspondent at
Athens says that the Greek govern
ment has learned from it's own official
sources that Great Britain refuses to
take part in blockade of Greece,
though she has no objection to such a
measure being taken by the other
powers.
The government also learns from
similar sources that the admirals of the
international fleet in Cretan waters
have informed their respective govern
ments that their position is no longer
tenable and that they must receive
definite instructions Or be recalled.
The foreign admirals have issued a
fresh proclamation, announcing that
the insurgent and Greek troops must
not attack the Turkish Notifications
(Which they claim are needed to
maintain security and quietly at
Kissamos, Suda, Malaxa, Retimo and
Gambia, where foreign troops have been
landed, otherwise the admirals say
they will employ force.
1t is not considered likely that this
proclamation will have much effect, i'll
view of the declaration of the insur-
gents that they will shed the last drop
of their blood to secure tn 9 union of
Crete and Greece.
Except at the points occupied by the
powers in this island anarchy and the
famine are feared. Both the Turkish
and Greek troops are quite undisci-
plined.
The ambassadors have formally no.
tilted the Greek government of the
intention of the powers to land troops
on the island of Crete to relieve the
detachment of foreign marines now on
duty ashore. The porte has raised no
objection up to the kresent time, be-
ieving that the next move of the for
eign fleet will be to carry out the threat
of the powers to blockade the principal
ports and coast of Greece. On this
question, however, there is no unanim-
ity of opinion
In the meantime, however, the war
preparations of Greece are continuing
night and day, and there are no indi-
cations of backdown in that quarter.
Money does not appear to be lacking
for the equipment of the Greeks, and
large supplies of arms and ammunition
have been forthcoming, from what
source is not clear

The representations of the ambassa-
doris of the foreign powers regarding
the condition of Anatolia, have made
but little impression.
The diplomats here are said to be
once more turning their attention to
the conduct of the sultan, and it is
semi officially intimated that they are
again of the opinion that the system Of
friendly representations on the subject
of Armenia, which has hitherto been
followed, must be changed for sterner
methods of dealing with the evils COM
planned of. The sultan, however, has
heard this story many times during the
past few years and he consoles himself
with the belief that he will survive
this new fit of righteous Indignation as
he has tided over others of much
more serious character.

DoLLNER AN ORATOR
Iowa Mans Speech on the
Tariff the Feature of the
Days Debate.
His Eloouence Arouses Re-
publiCans to Unbounded
Enthusiasm.
Civil Service Principle the
Subject of Attack in
the Senate.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-Although
several sharp passes at arms somewhat
enlivened the tariff debate in the house
during the day, the brilliant speech of
Mr.. Dolliver of Iowa was distinctly
the overshadowing feature of the day.
It shone out through the weary,
monotonous gloom which has so far
pervaded the debate like a locomotive
headlight in fog. Mr.. Dolliver is q
finished orator and his speech was a
masterpiece Of forensic eloquence. Re-
plete with wit and glowing periods it
alternately aroused his Republican col
leagues to unbounded enthusiasm and
convulsed the house with laughter.
Mr.. Dolliver is quick and adroit in the
nse of the foil and the Democrats
Kefrained From Interrupting Him.
Mr. McLaurin, Democratic member
of the ways and means committee
from South Carolina, created a mild
sensation by boldly proclaiming him
self in favor of a duty on cotton, and it
was noticeable that when he repudiated
the free raw material doctrines of
Cleveland and Carlisle, land those
who had prostituted the name of De-
mocracy," fully three-fourths OF the
Democrats on the floor sustained him
with hand and voice. The other
speakers during the day session were
Mr.. Gibson rep, Tenn.), Dockery
(Dem., No., Newlands (Silverite,
New, Lacey (Rep., Ia.), Swanson
(Dem., Va.) and Cochran (Dem., Mo-.
Howard Denounces Capital.
The night was given over to set
speeches. There were not over 40
members on the floor, but the galleries
were crowded to the doors. Mr.. How
ard Pop, Ala.) delivered a speech
reeking with denunciations of capital
and charges of corruption and jobbery
against all branches of the government.
Mr.. Sperry rep, Conn., in the course
of his speech presented petition from
the president and faculty of Yale col
1ege in favor Of placing books on the

HAVE KILLED THE TREATY..
London Times Asserts That the Amend
ments Are Objectionable

London Times Asserts That the Amend
ments Are Objectionable.
, LONDON, March a. The London
Times in leading editorial gives ex-
preston to anything but satisfied
feeling as to the senatorial amend
ments of the treaty of arbitration. 1t
says:
1.-The United States senate has done
what optimists affected to believe was
impossible, and what cooler observers
thought extremely probable. 1t has
destroyed the arbitration treaty. The
first amendment accepted is alone suf-
ficient to render a treaty unavoidable
and utterly worthless. The senate has
done more than to wreck an instru-
ment carefully framed by representa-
tives Of the nations. It has struck a
blow at the principle of arbitration
itself, and at the confidence Of the
world in the American people,"

Expect Action Soon.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The arbi-
fration treaty did not receive any con-
sideration at the hands of the senate
during the day. The supporters of the
treaty are hopeful that vote may be
reached soon. They expect Senator
Morgan to make quite long speech on
the Chiffon amendment, but there is
no indication of an intention ON the
part of other senators to speak at
length.

PLACE FOR PlCkLER.

He May Be Made Commissioner of Indian
Affairs.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-It comes
from very high authority that ex-
Congressman John A. Picker of South
Dakota will be appointed commissioner
of Indian affairs. Mr.. Picker was Of
fered two foreign appointments that
pay large salary, but he preferred to
remain in Washington. He has had a
great deal of business before the Indian
office and is therefore well qualified for
the position.

WASHINGTON, March "a. The senate
was unexpectedly precipitated into a
civil service debate during the day. 1t
proceeded for two hours, the civil serv-
ice act and the commission being I'M

assumed added significance owing to
the recent change of administration
and the attendant demand for offices.
Mr. German of Maryland called atten-
tion to the presence in Washington of
the horde OF hungry place hunters and
expressed profound sympathy with his
Republican associates over the restric-

TWO POINTS IN GOOD ROADS

Burlington Hawkeye.
 At good roads convention held in Min hesota a few days ago two facts of in- terest were brought out prominently. The first was the necessity of thorough sutfaee drainage by ditching. The road bed must be rounded so that the water will run off readily. If the road surface can be kept dry, any locality may have good reads at comparatively small cost all the year round, even with present availa ble means The second point was that of the width of tires. A practical road builder. stated that if he were to purchase a new wagon he would not take narrow-tired vehicle If he could get it at half price, as he could haul double the load with the same expenditure of power on wide tire. When the roads are dry and hard there can be no doubt of the superior economy of a wide tire not only in the matter of hauling the load but in preserving the roadway. As both suggestions are easily carried out, the hints should prove of value
