THETROUBLES IN THE EAST

Late on the afternoon of Monday the
joint forces from the foreign warships oc-
cupied the town of Canea. This step
gives general satisfaction there.
The British naval commander earlier
Monday notified Pridce George of Greece,
in the event of the latter executing the or
ders he has received from the King and
the Greek government, he will be COM
PEELED to use force against him. This un
expected attitude of the British comman-
der has produced a painful impression
among the Cretan Christians, who regard
the Prince as sent to defend them from
their Mussulman foes.
Later in the day the commander of the
foreign warships sent the commander of
the Greek warships a joint note calling
upon him to conform to the rules of inter
national law.
The Turks at Retimo have pillaged all
the Christian shops and the Bishops pal
ace. The diminishing around the town
between the Mussulmans and the Chris
tians continues necessarily, with little ad-
vantage on either side. Every precaution
has been taken to protect the Europeans
of all nations who remain ashore The
Mussulmans of Halfa and the Christians
of that vicinity are also skirmishing.

1t appears that the joint commission
to determine the boundary line between
Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland
did not determine it after all, says the
Philadelphia Times. 1t only deter
mined where the boundary ought to
be- but as this was not exactly where
the boundary had been, the work of
the commission was not final.
This ancient dispute comes up again
in the case of resident of Delaware
whose property the new boundary line
would transfer to Pennsylvania. He
prefers to remain Delawarean, being
possibly candidate for the United
States Senate, and Judge Hemphill
decides in his favor. The line laid
down bv the recent commission is much
more rational and convenient than the
line formerly recognized, but it cedes
little bit of Delaware to Pennsylva-
MIA and little bit Of Pennsylvania to
Delaware, and though this is a fair ex-
change, it can only be effected by the
action of the Legislatures of both
States, with the consent of Congress.
There should be no great difficulty
in bringing about the necessary legis-
lation, but it is remarkable that nobody
ever thought ofthis before. However,
as there has been boundary dispute
ever since the colonies were founded, it
would be too prccipitate to close it all
at once. A bill to legalize the report
of the commission could he passed in
both Legislatures and possibly in the
lower house of Congress, but it will
hardly get through the Senate during
Mr. Morgan's span of life.

PASSING THE BILLION-DOL-
LAR Nj ARK.

The New York World says: The Fifty
fourth Congress, hitherto noted chiefly
for its inaptitude, will close its obscure
career with the passage of appropriation
bills overlapping the billiondollar mark.
At time when financial depression is
nearing the danger point and the national
revenues are deficient nearly $50,00O,0OO
it lays on the people a burden of over
100000, 900 year.
That such crime should be possible
sounds almost incredible But it's perpe-
tration is easily explained. The only
feeble protest against it was made not be-
cause it was a robbery of the people, but
because it might hurt the party in power.
The ardent support given to it came from
the conviction that each Congressman
might thereby get slice of "pie" for his
district.
With such strong influence to support
it and such feeble opposition to resist it,
it is no wonder that the billion dollar limit
is passed. In spite of Speaker Reeds
perturbation no doubt the majority of the
members wonder at their own moderation.

BLOODY BATTLE IN CUBA.

The Cincinnati Commercial Tribune's
special from Havana says:
A detachment from General La Crete's
army, nov in this province had a battle
with a band of guerllas under Major Ze-
lasco and Havana volunteers under Col.
Sanchez The Cubans attacked block
house ten miles west of this city, not
knowing that large Spanish force was
near by. They h&d partly captured the
fort when the Spanish renforcements
came up. The Cubans were caught be-
tween two columns, and for several hours
the fight waged fast and furious
Finding that they could not make pro-
gress against such odds, the Spaniards
outnumbering them two to one, the Gu
bans drew off part of the volunteer corps,
then made a furious and unexpected on
slaught on the other part, compelling the
Spaniards to retreat and making a way
through which the Cubans passed, with a
loss of about one hundred men. The
Spanish lost over double that number
Notwithstanding their defeat the insur-
gents managed to dismantlc the fort so
that it had to be destroyed.
A pay train OF the railroad near Candel-
aria, province of Pinar del Rio, was wreck
ed by the Cubans Friday and over 5000, 900
in silver was secured. The Cubans killed
ten of the guards and captured four Span
ish guerillas belonging to San Martins
band. The guerillas were instantly put to
the machete by the infuriated Cubans, as
they attribute most of the murders in that
section to this band.
William p st. John, eX-president of the

TENN CENTENNIAL.

The Nashville, (Tenn.) Banner says:
The appropriation by the Legislature OF
$50, 900 for the benefit of the Tennessee
Centennial Exposition was proper &C
ton Very many citizens believe that the
amount should not have been less than
100000, but $4,000 appropriation will
greatly aid the enterprise and has saved
the State from the threatened reproach of
ignoring the celebration of her one hun
dredth anniversary, in honor of which
other States have literally contributed.
The exposition promises to be the most
successful affair of the kind ever held in
this country. 1t will not be so large as
the Worlds Fair at Chicago, but it will
be as complete, AM, like the celebrated
'Dream City will be !, marvel of beauty.
From this time until the opening day
there will be unceasing activity to finish
the ma gnficent centennial city. The whole
country is recognizing the greatness of the
exposition, which Will be the chief attrac-
ton of the year under the most suspicious
conditions"

Some men of steady habits, says the

is it for the whole community. Be,
