IN MILOUNA PASS.

Milouna Pass. April 23.-Everywhere
among the Turkish troops there is the
same enthusiasm. Two Albanian regi-
ments. having driven the Greeks from
their position, pursued them to little
spur OF a mountain, overlooking the
plains. The pursuit was against the
orders of the officers. 1t was impossible
to restrain them. They still hold the
spur, declaring that it is impossible for
a Turkish soldier TO retreat.
Nechats division has now been fight
ing for five days. but the more his SOL
diers fight the more they want to fight.
Nechat Pasha is commander of great
ability. He knows this country perfect
ly, having done service on the frontie:
In 1886. when he surrounded and cap.
tured whole Greek battalion.
Military reasons prevent the corre-
spondents from describing the Turkish
plan of attack upon the plain until the
attack begins, but 1t is evident that the
Greeks will he at a great disadvantage.
Edhem Pasha and his staff, on the
heights. are able to see every little move
ment of the Greeks; while the Greek
general on the plain can see the Turks
only when they are attacking. The Turks
are well furnished with cavalry, scouts
and artillery horses, as well as forage.
The Standards Athens correspondent
says that the Greeks at Matt repulsed a
charge Of 5000 Turkish cavalry, wi 1
great loss 10 the Turks. Crown Prince
Constantine was present.
A dispatch TO The Standard from
Corfu says that the Greek squadron.
while passing along the coast, was fired
upon by the Turkish garrison at Murto.

Ing the battery. killing several Turks.
The Greeks sustained no loss.
The Athens correspondent Of The
Daily Chronicle says: I learn on good
authority that the powers are ALREADY
assuming that Turkey will be victoriou- :,
and are discussing ways and means of
settling matters after the war is ended.
One 'dictatorial power proposes that tie
Greek dominions shall be curtailed, the
said power retaining one district as a
bond for the payment of the Greek debt
to it,
The fighting at Kritiri continues in a
desultory way. The Greeks position, de-
Tended by earthworks and forts, is the
last position on the heights, but not ill.,
portant because a large Greek army il
now massed on the plain as good dis
tance.
To understand the position. IL is neces-
sary TO compare the line Of mountains to
the letter A. The Greeks hold the ex-
treme point inside, while the Turks on
the two lines dangerously menace the
Greek position, which will become un-
tenable as soon as the Turks advance.
Nechat Pasha still withholds the order
TO take kritiri by assault, though the
Turkish troops are begging his permis-
sion to do so.

spondent describes the Turkish fleet,
and characterizes its appearance as
ridiculous. He says that Gin, ms are
the heaviest carried. The captains of all

Guiding the torpedo boat, sent round
robin to Hafa Pasha, declaring the fleet
unfit for sea. The vessels have, there
fore, been ordered to return but singly,
SO as not to attract public attention.
Orders have been given TO mobilize the
redifs of the Fourth army corps, and 20
battalions of redifs of the Second army
corps.
1t is reported that Ahmed Moukhtar
Pasha has been ordered to leave Egypt
forthwith for the scene OF action.
II is also reported that the plan of
campaign approved by the sultan, to
take effect after the capture of Larissa,
Is to divide the army into two corps. one
or which Is TO march by way of Volo and
the other by westerly route, and the
two to unite at Athens, which is to be
occupied and held until heavy indemnity
is paid.

Headquarters of the Greek Army, La
rlssa, April 23.-The latest advices as to
the situation at Damasi show that on
Sunday the Turks made u sortie from the
town and attacked the Greek position
at Boughasi pass and Sideropoluki. Af-
ter severe fighting, the Greeks drove the
Turks back across the frontier, with
loss OF five guns.
Four hundred members of the Foreign
Legion, including 26 Englishmen, under
Captain Birch, arrived here on Tuesday.
They were received with great demon
stration, which was repeated on their de-
parture for the front in the evening. In
tense enthusiasm was caused among the
Greeks when the Englishmen sang the
national war songs.
The Greek evzones and a mountain
battery. having ascended the mountains
east of the st. George monastery, were
taken by the Turks on the flank. After
severe fight, lasting many hours. the
Turks. who on Monday had driven the
Greeks from Marti and Ligara, brought
$50 Circassian cavalry from Elassona.
This was on Tuesday. The Circassians
began to extend into the plain; but being
fianked by the Greek battery Colonel

were compelled to fall back on Ligsra,

At GREEK CAPITAL.

Athens, April 23.-The ministers held
a prolonged conference at the war office
yesterday. and then went TO the royal
palace for council, at which King
George presided. II is said that very
important decisions were taken.
The eastern squadron has bombarded
Eaterina and destroyed the custom
house and other public buildings.
The western squadron has bombarded
Mourto, north of Prevesa, and captured
a Turkish steamer.
A dispatch from Larissa says that the
Greek artillery at Reveni were reinforced
and have reduced Vigla to silence. This
will enable the brigades of Colonel
Smolenitz and Colonel Dimopoulos to
unite in a movement toward Darnzi.
A severe struggle continues at Bou-
ghazi where Colonel Dimopolous is, and
the latest reports from Matt confirm the
news of the retreat of the Greeks from
Nezeros, with considerable loss. They
have fallen back to Mayrychori, which
is well fortified.

Insurgents still Hold Bancs.

Havana, April 23.-The insurgents
continue holding Banes, on the northeast
coast of the province Of Santiago de
Cuba. The Spanish columns of troops
have not been able to advance on the
place. partly on account of the flooded
condition of the country and also be-
cause they have not received the rein
forcements asked for. A squadron Of 10
Spanish warships, commanded by tine
naval chief OF staff, Senor Marenco. has
been at Gibara for four days past, pre-
pairing to remove the torpedoes which
the insurgents have placed at the en-
trance of Banes bay.

Echo Of See1ey Dinner.

New York, April 23.-The famous
Seeley dinner was referred to in a mo-
tion before Justice Beach in the supreme

Six Kentucky Marriages.

At the village of Roley one day not
long ago there were six couples mar
ried. In the morning there was triple
wedding in the church. In the after
noon three other couples were welded
homes of the respective brides. All six
of the couples were entertained at the
home of Uncle Bob Tucker, who, after
the different marriages, was closely re-
lated to all the principals thereto. Now
come some of the singular features of
the case. Uncle Bob, before the we'd
ding, had in the lot q IL individuals a
daughter, son, three granddaughters,
one niece and one nephew. La the IL
there were a brother and sister, two
sisters, two brothers, three cousins, two
uncles, an aunt, four nieces and two
nephews, and yet no one of the 10 per-
sons married any one related to him or
herself. Another funny feature is that
before the weddings there were two
named Hopkins, two Dunbars, two
Chelfs, two fuckers, two McWhorters,
one Pendleton and one Hood. After the
omelet was done, the DuTlbars and Hop
kinses had gained two, Me Pendletons,
Chelfs and McWhorters had been ex-
terminated, the Hoods had been in
creased by one, and the fuckers had
held their ground. Ever since the we'd
ding day the gossips have been figuring
on the probable kinship between the
several brides and grooms and their mu-
tual relative Uncle Bob Tucker.-Co-
