SCENES AT PHARSALOS.

by Gable to the Associated Press.J
HEADQUARTERS OF THE TURKISH
ARMY IN THESSALY, PHARSALOS,
May 6. 1S97.-I,elayed in transmission
The Turkish Army, tonight, is bivouaca-
ing in the eighty villages surrounding
Pharsalos, captured from the Greeks.
The battle began at nine o'clock in the
morning. After skirmishes between the
advance posts Of the opening forces, the
Greek Artillery opened fire with great
precision But The Turks pushed forward,
exposing themselves to the enemy's fire
with the greatest sang froid.
The Greeks then made fatal error
in leaving the commanding positions
which they occupied and retiring upon
the plain, which was commanded on all
points by our batteries, which were
brought into action>as soon as the Greeks
left the hills. The scene which followed
was both interesting and cruel. The
Greeks, from all parts of the plain, were
converging towards stone bridge cross
ing the river and which was the only
means of getting over. The mass of hui
manity at. this point was constantly
growing, when the roar of the Turkish
artillery began. The Turks obtained the
exact range of the enemy and
shell after shell fell and explod-
ed in the midst of the fugitives.
The havoc created by the shrapnel
shells was terrible Gradually, however,
through this decimating fire, the greater
part of the Greeks traversed the river,
and the Turks, who were then covering
the plains like, bees, met with strong
resistance while attacking Vasili, where
the Greeks from hidden positions, opened
furious fire. But the Turks advanced
with marvellous temerity and captured
the village, not by gun shots, but by the
purely moral effect of the fear which
their splendid insouciance in the advance
inspired in the enemy.
Owing to the fact that it was not in
tended to commence the decisive engage
ment until tomorrow, the Turkish divi-
sion intended to take the enemy in flank
only arrived half an hour before the close
of the combat today, having marched
thirty miles.
The artillery played a leading part in

made without any previous plan. The

LOVERY'S HARD FIGH7.
Polieeman's Encounter With a
Drunken Ruffian : Another
Officers Son Aids the
Prisoner.


Jacob Bruene, of No. 1856 First street,
the son of a police officer, was arraigned
before Justice Nevin this morning to
answer a charge of interfering with
Policeman Lowery in the performance of
his duty. Yesterday at noon a young
man who gives the name of James
Greene became involved in quarrel with
an unknown man on Grove street. A
fight ensued and friends of the fighters
endeavored to separate them. Greene
was Worsted and after his friends had
dragged him away he attacked them. He
cursed and swore like a trooper and by
shouting at the top of his voice man
aged to attract about two hundred people
to the scene. Greene's friends hustled
him through Third street toward Erie.
In the middle of the block Policeman
Lowery, who was citizens dress, was
encountered. He advised Greene to keep
quiet and accompany his friends Greene
became SO abusive and used such vile
language that LoWery decided to arrest
him. He seized Greene by the collar and
interfered with to such an extent by
Greene's friends that he finally went to
his home which was nearby, and pro-
curing billy again attacked Greene.
Policeman and prisoner rolled over in the
gutter and Greenes friends occasionally
gave Lowery kick which made him
Srunl. Inc OlIlcer was D6llS pretty
roughly handled when Jacob Bruene
sailed in and helped Greene and his
friends.
Lowery managed to break away from
Greene, and as he aid SO he struck Bruene
en- the head with his billy infiicting a
painful scalp wound. Lowery next used
his billy on Greene, and was subduing
that pugnaciouS individual when two po-
licemen who had heard of the row came
to his assistance. 1t required the unit
ed efforts of the three coppers to handle
Greene. The patrol wagon was sent
for and Greene was bundled into it. The
policeman had to sit on him to keep him
in the wagon. Greene was being placed
in. a cell at the Seventh street station
when Bruene entered and asked to have
the wound in his head dressed. Dr..
Hoffman attended him, and then Lowery
preferred a charge of interfering with an
officer against him.
This morning in court Bruene explained
that his intention was to assist not in
terfere with Lowery. Justice Nevin rep
rimanded him severely, and reminded
him that he would probably consider it
an outrage if anyone attacked his father

IAYOR WANTS SPECIAL COUNSEL

The Board of Finance held brief ses-
sion last night. Alderman-at-Barge Mid
lige should have acted as Finance Conn
missioner for the first time, but it was
laughingly remarked that the new Com
missioner had ito ride a goat" He would
not tell what degree he had to take.
The Board of Finance is Democratic
body, and it is highly probable it will in
short time work in harmony with those
branches of the city government which
are Democratic. Mayor Hoos sent a
communication to the Board to the ef-
feet that inasmuch as his predecessor
had notified him quo warranto proceed
ings to test the constftutionality of the
Macarthur act were to be instituted. he
would like the Board to designate Allan
l.. McDermott special counsel to look af-
ter the interests of the present city gov
ernment. The letter was filed. Whether
the Mayors request will be granted or
not is not known.
The Commissioners declined to discuss
the subject last night further than to
say that when the time arrived for them
to act they would give the Mayors re-
quest the consideration it deserves from
the branch of government controlling
the finances. 1t is believed that Mr.. Nc

The Freeholders have decided that they
will not overwork themselves during the
summer months. A resolution was adopt
ed yesterday providing that the Board
will meet hereafter on the first Thursday

that if this permission was granted other
organizations would make application
and. before the close of the summer the
Boulevard would be decorated with ban
ners from one end to the other and the
appearance of it marred Freeholder
McNally said he could see no objection to
granting the request. The Fourth Regi-
ment was allowed to raise a banner adj
no reason why the same privilege should
not be accorded to the Foresters. The
application was denied.

and sprinkle the Boulevard. gave notice
that Miller, Knobloch & CO. would have
eight sprinkling carts ready tomorrow. 1t

THE ANTJ-s0ALPING BILL.
Lively Hearing Before Governor

ALBANY, N. Y, May I, 1S97.-There
was a lively and very largely attended
hearing before Governor Black this morn
ing when the ticket brokers of the State
made their last fight against the so-call-
ed "anti-scalpers'' bill which prohibits
offices not under the authority of rail-
road from selling tickets. The railroads
were represented by Geo. H. Daniels,
Frank Loomfs, +. A. Harrington, and F.
j. Wolfe, of the Central; D. l. Roberts
of the Erie; c. E. Lambert, the West
Shore; Lewis e. Carr and j. w. Bur
dick. the Delaware and Hudson.
For the ticket brokers there were pres
ent Abraham Gruber as counsel. p III.
Dove of the Commercial Travellers,
Daniel Harris of the State Federation Of
Labor, w. Fl. Star and w. E. Bridges of
the Commercial League. The arguments
as presented were merely a rehash Of
those presented before the committees of
the Senate and Assembly. Mr. Gruber
said that the object of the bill was to
prevent sixty men selling railroad tickets
to the public at a reduced rate 1t was
against public interest.
Mr.. Loomis said the bill was to protect
both the railroad and the public. The
other arguments were upon this line. It
is understood that the Governor will sign
the bill.
