HOPES SCATTERED.
New York's Supplementary opera Sea

New York's Supplementary opera Sea-
son Will Not Prove A Realization.
Chicago, March 6.-Manager Grau,
of the Metropolitan Opera Co., has re-
caived long anticipated cable mes
sage from Nile. Melba conveying the
information that it would be impos-
sible for her to revisit the United
States this season. Her malady, which
is of a malarial nature, does not yield
TO treatment as was hoped and she is
reluctantly obliged to give over all
thought of further operate work for
the present.
This practically settles the fate OF
the proposed supplementary season
of opera in New York City. Nine.
Eames had already been heard from
in a dispatch giving information that
she would not be able to sing again
for some time, and the news from Mel
ba seems to extinguish all hope or
any spring season in New York, where
the prima donna is even more OF a
divinity than she is in Caicago.

New York, March 6-John L. Sulli-

Il will challenge the winner of the
Corbett-F itzsimmOns fight" said he,
"and am making no bluff, neither am

is good fight left in me, and would
like to have a go with either Corbett
or Fitzsimmons.
Il will issue my challenge to the
winner of the great battle at the ring

mons shake hands and the gong
sounds Frank V. Dunn, will announce
that | will challenge the winner of the
fight for the heavy weight champion

legs gave away and my machinery
went to pieces. There was no go to
me, and was all out of gear. I made
a one half swing at COrbett, which,
fortunately for me, only caught him

lookout FOR TROUBLE.

Salt Lake City, March g. A special
to the Tribune from Price, Utah,
says:
Early Thursday morning private dis
patches from Washington were re-
ceived at Fort Teuchesne and Nerna-
ia saying that the bill providing for
the opening of the Incompetence re
servatiOn had passed the House ana
that President Cleveland had signed
it, before midnight. Immediately there
was a wild rush for the reservation
and before noon there were 800 or GOO
armed men in possession of the Gil
sonite lands. No official information
of the opening of the reservation had
been received and the parties were
allowed to remain undisturbed. The
rush for the reservation yesterday
surpassed that of the day previous,
it being more generally thought that
the land was opened for settlement
and every foot of land known TO
contain Gilsonite is now in possession
of an armed man. :,
The Indians are greatly excited and
unless the parties are elected from
their lands shortly, trouble is looked

CRETAN SITUATION.
ENGLANDs INTERESTS ARE ALL
OENTERED WITH GREECE.
Should That Country, Through John Bulls
Aid, Annex Crete, 1t Would be An
other British Gibraltar.

New York, March Ga dispatch to
the Herald from Vienna says:
1t is learned that the situation is
most critical and that European con-
cert is imaginary.
Count GOluchowsky's sensible pro-
pOsal for coercion in the summer of
1896, which was declined by Lord
Salisbury was honest and offered a
chance to save the situation. The
means employed are revolutionary
forming precedents which must bring
about open antagOnism between Eng
land and Russia in the struggle for
the worlds Hegemony which Rus
STA could fain defer.
Lord Salisbury's paramount anxiety
is TO avoid the odium of breaking the
peace. Greece will relieve him of this
by refusing to evacuate Crete rely
ing upon the support of the Italians
and British through sympathy with
Crete.
Commanding the Dardanelles and
covering Egypt, as Crete does, should
she be gained by Greece with English
assistance, she will become another
Gibraltar.
Russia cannot possibly allow this.
Hence coming events will find Russia
siding with Bulgaria, which hates
Greece and whose sovereign yester-
day received the aide de camp of the
Sultan bringing proposals of alliance.
Turkish reforms have lost all inter
eStS.
The outlook of hOstilities pOrtend

has Il hundred millions in Turkish

lands modest fami kost and famous
double may be President McKinley's
private detective. This is doubtless
Frank Stible. Word has come from
Washington that Stible is as good as

and everybody who knows him was
pleased. Stible, besides bearing a re-
markable resemblance to Grover
Cleveland, is regarded as man who
was born under lucky star. He al
ways appeared to fall into fortunate
places and now is likely to get the
best job any policeman in the land
will have for four years. Stible began
his police career in Chicago as a Co

tiary. He is said to be a personal
