You may remember how it was almost
decided three weeks ago that the two sa-
Ions would be held in the Palais Royal
Building, a low structure on the site of
the present garden. Then another project
was preached for building series of gal
leries on the large unused rectangle be-
tween the statue of Gambetta, the Louvre
and its two wings stretching out toward
the Tuileries. This space is of no Use
whatever at the present moment, the two
little gardens there being simply the re-
sort of nurses and babies, the rest OF the
place looking rather deserted. But after
all the plans had been drawn up and the
salon committee had approved Of them,
the government came down with it's
heavy foot and, through the minister of
commerce INSTRUCTED" M. Picard, the
commissioner general of the exhibition,
that the two salons would be held in 1898
and 1899 in the Machinery Hall.

LARISSA, April 1.-THE corresponds

LARISSA, April 1.-THE correspondent
of the Associated Press yesterday was en-
abled to ride up to Malouna pass and in
spect the Cup valley, northeast Of which
is Elassona, where the Turkish headquar-
tiers is situated. To all appearance the
valley is almost denuded of troops. The
correspondent saw only three squadrons OF
cavalry three batteries of field artillery
and a few battalons of infantry. There
was no sembance of big camp, whereas
three weeks ago, according to the reports
of correspondents with the Turkish army
there were some 35, 900 troops in position at
Elassona. The indications are that either
the Turkish troops have been withdrawn
behind the ridges surrounding Elassona, for
ccncealment, or they have been moved
westward to some other point on the front
ier in imitation of similar movements upon
the part of the Greek army.
No further news has been received from
Macedonia regarding the movements of the
Greek rregulars. The weather is still bit
terly cold in the mountains.

brought into play on the Turkish post at
Koroni. The latter eventually de-
stroyed with dynamite. 1t is reported as

occupied three Turkish stations and that
the Turks are retreating. The Crown
