Denial of Report Regarding Kings Ac-
ceptance of Powers Demands.

Denial of Report Regarding Kings Ac-
ceptance of Powers Demands.
London, March 1.-The Greek charge
d'affaires in this city denies that King
George has intimated his intention of
accepting the demands of the powers,
as stated Friday in a dispatch which a
merchant of Greece in this city received
from Athens. A correspondent in
Athens telegraphs that the Roman
Catholic archbishop of Athens has sent
a dispatch to the pope asking his holi-
ness to mediate between Greece and the
towers.
A dispatch from Canea states that the
interposition of the powers has had a
bad effect in that it has led the Moslems
to believe that Europe is behind them
in their combat with the Christians. AS
q result there are 5000 Moslem fighting,
besides the Turkish soldiers, all heav-
lily armed, parading the streets of the
city and demanding the blood of the
Christian dogs who have dared to ques-
tion the right of the Turks to rule them.
The combined forces that have been
landed by the several powers number
only 500 men.
