and may result in open hostilities be-
tween the two armies on the frontier
without the formalIty of an actual declara-
tion of war.
At o'clock this morning thousand
Greeks, under cover of the darkness,
crossed the frontier about twenty miles
southwest of Grevena. The Greeks were
discovered by the Turkish outposts of the
second line, who fred upon them and
then fell back upon their own m ain body.
Orders were Immediately given for the
Turks to attack.
At o'clock the Greeks were surrounded
in the forest. The nature of the ground
made it impossible for the Turks to deliver
an effective fire, the Greeks being protected
by the trees. The latter replied briskly to
to the Turks fire and succeeded in check
ing their advance. At the time the dis
patch was sent the fighting was proceeding
vigorously.
The Greeks were holding their own.
Artillery was being hurried to the scene.
1t is thought that if this be brought into
action, the Greeks will be speedily dis
lodged.
there are any regular troops among the
Greeks, but the band is so large that it
suggests that probability. If this Re so,
fighting along the whole frontier is ine-
vitable.
Edhem Pasha will advance i'm medfateIy
if he learns that regulars are taking part
in the fight. Orders 10 that effect have
been issued. 1t would not be surprising
if the whole Turkish army soon advances
into Greece.
The situation is extremely critical.
Actual war was never so near since the
troubles began. Secret telegrams are con-
stantly passing between the military COM
mander at Grevepa and the Porte.
ELASSONA, TURKEY, April 9. - The
Greek force that this morning invaded
Turkish territory has held out so desper-
atelv against the Turks that Edhem Pasha
sent orders to Haiku Pasha, commander
of the Turkish division at Greyena. to
move against the Greeks. The greater
part of Hakki Pashas division is now ad-
vancing against the invaders. and bloody
fight is expected. The troops are enthu-
siastic over an opportunity for an engage
ment with the hated Christians.
Edhem Pasha has notified all the pen
erals to hold their com mands in readiness
for instant action. The reservists have
lett the encampment here In order to
move closer to the line OF defense. This
city is to-day the scene of the greatest
military activity.
The insurgents at Kissimo have kent
their promise to treat the foreign ao-
mlrals as enemies. The news from there

Distractions placed upon the track of
the Sutro electric road last night derailed
one of the cars, it crashing into another
going in the opposite direction and en-
dangering the lives of several passengers.
The accident happened on the grade
jus. back OF the cemetery, at the corner of
Richmond and Commonwealth avenues.
The car was crowded. the night being fine,
and at that time, $50 O'Clock, there was a
larger crowd than usual going to and from
the Cliff House and Sutro Baths.
After turning the curve back of the
cemetery the westbound car was going
down the grade at the usual rate of speed,
six or eight miles, when the m otorman sud-
denly felt the front wheels jump and jolt
over some obstruction, and then go off the
track. He at once reversed the electric
current and put On the brakes. but before
he could check the headway of the car an
eastbound car of the same line swung up
Just in time to collide with the derailed
westbound one.
The passengers on both cars felt a sud-
den jar. Those in the front part. which
is open and served the purposes of a
dummy, felt more than the shock, for sew
eral were thrown off on their faces in the
road. and one or two were cut by flying
fragments OF glass.
B. A. Bosqui. who resides at 751 Sutter
street, was The only passenger seriously
injured. His left ankle was sprained and
his right foot and ankle were badly
bruised. He was conveyed in the police
ambulance to the City Receiving Hospi-
tai, where his wounds were dressed, after
which he was taken home In a hack. He
is son of Bosqui, the Unknown printer
and engraver.
Mrs. Taylor and her daughter, who
were on the front part of the westbound
car, were roughls shaken up, but fortu-
nately escaped injury.
A man sitting near the large convex
panss of glass in front of the open part of
the car had bis face cut by three pieces Of
glass. The cuts. however, were only su-
perticial.
The front of the westbound conveyance
and the side of the car eastbound were
broken, and all the windows in the latter
were smashed.
The crash of the collision attracted the
attention of the nurses at the Children's 5
Hospital, which is opposite the scene of
the collision about 2u0 yards away, and
they were promptly on the scene with
sticking plaster and lint bandages, but
their services were not required except in
the case of the young man whose lace was
scratched.
Young Bosoui was in great pain as he
lay on the operating ia bic in the Receiv-
ing Hospital while the surgeons dressed
and bound his injured feet. He said:
81 was on the front Of the westbound
car, and when we went down the grade
just back of the cemetery the car went at

they had left the rails. Then we crashed
into the eastbound car and 1 was thrown
violently to the ground. was so badly
hurt that could not walk, and am now
in great pain. Just before the cars came
together was about to jump off, but we
were going SO fast l was afraid / would
get run over. and so I remained on the
car"
E. NJ. Van Frank superintendent of the
road, says the wreck gave every evidence
OF being the result of deliberate attempt
to wreck the cars.
THE accident happened about half-past
o'clock last evening"" he said, land it
was undoubtedly the work of some mis-
creant who. l suppose, had a grud ge
against the road. There was a car going
west and as il. approached the corner of
Richmond and Commonwealth avenues a
car going east came toward it.
Just before the west ound car reached
the corner it left the track, and turning a
little to the side collided with the east
bound car. The steps of both cars were
splintered and the passengers were badly
shaken up. The westbound car was we'll
under control. as it was only going at six
| or eight miles an hour. The eastbound
car was going up the grade at about
seven miles an hour.
II went at once 10 the scene of the acci-
dent, and then it was l saw the wreck had
oeen deliberate attempt upon the safety
OF the cars. For distance of fifteen feet
all four rails had been buried four inches
deep under the loose macadam from the
street. The one who did it had scraped
the loose rock up and had carefully
smoothed it over the rail, and as the road
way between the rails is also macadam-
lied 1t was impossible for the motorman
to see the obstruction in time.
'Of course, where the westbound car
had reached the macadam it had crushed
through it, but the eastbound car had
been stopped by the collision, and in front
of it L saw where the trap had been care
fully set for it. The roadway alongside
the tracks is of this loose stuff, not rolled
or watered, and is built up high as the
rails. The roadbed between the rails is
also of macadam, loose like that on the
crossway, and it was an easy matter for
any one to go along and scrape the stuff
up from each side until the rail was
deeply buried.
''The cars were running on five minutes
headway, and the cars, both east and
west bound, ahead of those which col
lided had passed over the very point of
the derailment only few minutes before.
THE matter has been placed in the
hands of the police l have no knowledge
of any one or any reason for any one
doing such thing. 1t might have been
horrible accident. and l cannot see what
could prom pt any one 10 cause it.'

An Invasion Of Irregulars Resented by the

LONDON. ENG, April 9.-The Evening
News publishes a late dispatch from
Elassona, headquarters of Edhem Pasha,
com mmander-in-chief of the Turkish forces
in Macedonia, giving the details Of q
battle between Greeks and Turks. 1t is
not known whether the Greeks are the
same body described in an earlier dis
patch as having crossed the frontier and
were attacked by Turks, but as the fight
ing is reported in both instances in the
vicinity of Grevena it is likely that the
Greeks, whom the first dispatch said were
brigands, were really irregular troops who
have advanced into Turkish territory de-
spite the orders of Crown Prince Con STAN
tine. If this be the case it will render the
situation, already perilous, far more so
