Has Been Reduced Asa
| Result.

Albany, March IA resolution of the
Joint committee on trusts which held
several sessions in New York City last
month, was submitted to the legislature
today. 1t is not fact, that the decision
of Judge Swayne on the federal constitu.
tion, forbids action on the part of an in
diyidual state, to absolutely repress
trusts, but the committee expresses the
opinion that the attorney.general can by
bringing action before the Supreme court
Judge, in some respects provide remedy
for existing evils. The bill which ac-
companies the report grants immunity
for witnesses who incriminate themselves,
and gives the Supreme court power to
subpoena any bill that may be introduced
to stop factor in the system, as used by
the sugar trust, Senator McCarren filed a
minority report, exhonerating the sugar
trust, saying that the trust has made
possible lower prices for the commodity.

FIGHTING AT CRETE.
Admiral OF the Fleet Has Ordered All
Greeks to Leave Crete lmme-
diately.

Canea, March 9.--There was renewed
fighting last evening between Turkish
troops and Cretan insurgents around thu
camp of the latter on the heights Of
Akretoria near hare, the position bomb
arded by the ieArshlps of the powers or
February vi. result of the engage
ment is not known, but the Greek flag is
no longer visible this morning above the
insurgents position. In addition to or
dering the Greek vice consul to leave the
island, Admiral Canevtro, the officer who
by reason Of seniority is in command OF
the combined fleet, has ordered the Greek
newspaper correspondents and all other
Greeks to leave Crete Immediately. Al
1925 q. NJ, Gordon of Turkish troops
drawn up around Akretoria was attacked
and severe fighting is proceeding Fight
ing between the insurgents and Turks
commenced at 2 O'Clock this morning,
and continues all along the line. Com
munication by road with Slda bay Is cut
off. Turkish transport with civil Off
cials and troops has arrived here with
small pox patients on board.
ITALIANS INTERVENE.
Canea.-Advices from Hierapetra say
that owing to a refusal of Mussulmans to
surrender the fort there, insurgents at
tackled it, whereupon the Italian cruiser
shelled the insurgents.
GREEKS TO BE EXPELLED.
London.-It was stated this afternoon
in official circles that the renewal of fight
ing between the insurgents and Turks in
Crete, will have the effect of making the
powers Immediately take action, ex-
pelling the Greeks from the Island, and
landing foreign troops thereon.
WILL oOERoE GREECE.
London.--The general impression in
competent quarters is, that the powers will
not accept the proposals of Greece, and
will carry out the threat of coercing
Greece if necessary.
GREEK FORCES IN CRETE.
Atheps.-There is intense anxiety rela-
tive to the course the powers will decide
to adopt in the face of the Greek govern
ment acceding to their demands for the
evacuation of Crete by Greek troops, and
withdrawal of the fleet from Cretan
waters. Greece is willing as to the fleet
but is holding that her troops shonld be
allowed to remain and be used to pre-
serve order. In any case it ia not believed
that the proposed blockade of the Greek
coasts will begin before the end of the
week.
