BIZ Gable to the Dnated Press.

CoNSTANTINOPLE, April O. 1897
The reports of fighting in Crete which
are being received here daily are having
very bad impression upon the Govern
ment and the people alike, and in conse-
auence the Porte has informed the rep
resentatiyes of the Turkish Government
abroad that the present position is no
longer tenable This information is ac-
companied by the declaration on the part
OF the Porte that unless settlement of
the Cretan difficulty shall be speedily
reached the Porte viii propose to the
powers that Turkey take matters into
her own hands. 1t is also feared here
that blockade of Greece by the war
ships of the powers will hasten a con-
hict between the Turks and the Greeks

Give Europe an AdYanfa@e

WASHINGTON, April 2 1897 Consul
Robertson, at Hamburg, IN an elaborate
report to the State Department.. on dried
beer grains as cattle food, expressed the
confident opinion that if Europe finds it
g cheap, as well as the best food for cat
tile after paying ocean freights from this
country, commission, etc, American far
mers certainly ought to be able to use it
to advantage without these expenses, es-
pecially when such valuable cheap fod-
der will do away with the constant com
plaint of the scarcity and high price of
food for farm animals.
Consul Robertsons report is devoted to
a convincing demonstration Of the radi-
cal difference between wet beer grains,
which spoil and are injurious, and the
same product dried, the drying process
radically changing its character accord
ing to the best European experience cor
