THE FLEET HAS SAILED.

Greek Warships Leave Cretan Waters,
Destination Unknown.
CANEA, Crete, March S.-The Greek
feet has left here for an unknown des-
tination. The foreign warships have
landed 500 men at Selinos.
The news Of proposal upon the part
Of the powers to grant autonomy to
the island of Crete has created bad
impression among the insurgents, who
desire annexation with Greece. The
Mussulmans are also irritated at the
concession Of autonomy.
The departure Of the British consul,
Sir Alfred Billiotti, alone, for Selino,
on board the British battleship Rodney,
although that vessel was accompanied
by other foreign warships, is badly in
terpreted by the other consuls, who.
however, had previously rejected a
proposal to 60 there in order to make a
fresh attempt to save the Moslem fam.
lilies, who are in danger by the invest.
ment of that place by the insurgents.

Governor Lord VIII Appoint One and

SALEM, Or, March 8. Governor
Lord was asked whether he intended
to appoint United States senator, and
if SO whether he thought his appointee
would be seated. He said: II shall
appoint a senator, but whether he will

only by some previous analogy that
facts in the Oregon case can be brought
within the principle declared by tho
senate. understand the latest ruling
of the senate is that when q legislature
fails to elect senator during its ses-
sion, the power of the governor to ap.
point is denied. To my mind the va
cancy in the senate was caused by rea-
son of the failure of the legislature to
organ ize and become a competent body
to elect senator, and is a very differ
ent matter from the failure Of duly
organized body to choose a senator.
