NEW YORK, April GA dispatch
to the Press from Larlssa, Thessaly,
ssys: The celebration OF the ami.
versary of Greek iDdepend ence evoked
wild demonstrations here today. The
Greek army will not listen to any sug-
ges,ion OF rettesting. The excitem e nj
all along the frontier has been intense,
ana 1t has been impossible TO foretell
from hour TO hour whether he troops
would not take the reins In their own
hands ami attack the Turkish posi.
tions. Up to lnte hour tonight,
however, no outbreak has been re-
ported, although mob surrounded
the palace OF Prince Consta tine here
this evening and cismored vigorously
for war, and the guard had TO be in.
creased TO control tue crowd.
So intense has been the feeling that
q council OF officers with the prince
was held tonight. at which the ofiic
leaders OF the army insisted upon an
immediate declaration OF war. They
argued that such a course was tho snly
salvation Of the throne and dynasty
OF King George. This decision OF the
Ulcers was sent by the prince to
Athens tonight.
Tne demonstration at the close OF
the services held this morning ceIe.
bfatiug the national birthday was en-.
tnusiaslic, This church was crowded
and the eolemnity was broken by tire.
mendOus cheers OF "Hurrah for war;
in which the best known military
men anu civilians Joined unanimous.
~. Tho prince showed his uissp.
prevail plainly and quickly, and rs the
cheering did not cease he abruptly
left the church without tsking any
further Doiice of 1t.
The effect OF this Incident was to
anger the people and the troops, and
the demonstration at tue prlnce's pal.
ace tonight followed the spreading OF
the story. The army, while under q
great strain OF excitement all day,
have behaveilwith remarkable calm
Dete, go far as It's actual CONDUCT toward
the Turks II concerned. The orders
to prevent any wantoD provocation OF
the Turkish outposIs were stringent /,
and not gun has been fret In the
camps.
1t seemed tonight safe to say that
either war with Turkey or local up.
rising on the Macedonian frontier is
certain.

clined TO say anything beyond adj
uniting that he hpu private talks with
DR.. Jameson ON the subject, the sub
stance OF which he re used TO civulge.
This caused Sir William to exclaim:
"Hhsn l must clear the room anu
settle this question once for ALL"
After the room had been cleared,
the COMMITTEES entered Into private
discussion. An hour later the doors
were reopened and tho chairman in.
formed Sir Willoughby that he must
answer the questions, Uut thst he need
not repeat Dr.. Jsmeson's exact words.
Sir John Willoughby still declined
to answer the Questions, alleging
public grounds as tue reason for his u-
fusal aud declaring that he was pre-.
pared to take the consequences OF
uoing so. The chairman again advised
the witness to divulge his reasons for
thinking he had imperial authority
for the raid, but Sir John Remained
firm.
The committee adjourned until Fri-
day next.

A medical scientist having observed that
deaf mutes never suffer from seasickness
IA fact which is perfectly well understood
by those who have had charge of these I'M
fortunates-the inquiry was naturally sug-
gested to his mind, why this immunity
from this distressing malady? After varied
and exhaustive experiments it was decided
that the absence of sensibility in the audi
tory nerve was the occasion of the entire
freedom of deaf mutes from seasickness.
He says: SIN deaf mutes there is absolute
deafness, or very great reduction in hear
ing, dependent upon the destruction or
serious impairment of the function of the
peripheral distribution or sound perceptive
elements Of the auditory nerve, in which
process the semicircular canals are includ-
ed. Both physiological experiment and
pathological observation point to that part
of the inner ear known as the semicircular
canals as exercising a controlling influence
over the maintenance of the erect posture
and the sense of equilibrium. AS those
functions are frequently disturbed on ship
board by the rapidly changing motion of
the ship, 1T seems probable that this has
much to do with seasickness, if it is not
the sole cause of it. A remedy which has
been effective in "a number of cases is an
an@sthetic applied to the inner ear by
dropping. A preparation of cocaine is
suggested.
