Gernan CathoIic Demonstrntlon.

Arrangements for the reunion of the Ger
man Catholic societies of Pennsylvania, which
will be held in Pottsville next month under
the auspices of st. Johns Beneficial Society,
are being made on a very gigantic scale. 1t
will without doubt be the biggest religious
gathering ever held in this region and will
continue three days from June LIST to the 3rd,
inclusive The hotels of the town will not
be large enough to accommodate the vast
crowd of people which will visit Pottsville
during the celebration and the committee on
accommodations is now busy providing
suitable quarters. The parade on the 1st will
be one of the largest ever held in POttsyille.
On the evening of the second an elaborate
reception will be held in the Academy of
Music The details of the reunion are in the
hands of Christian Duby, chairman of the
Committee Of Arrangements Rev Mason,
corresponding secretary of Executive Com
mittee, and Edward Lotz, corresponding
secretary of the Fest Committee. All com
munications relative to the parade should be
addressed to Joseph Vol, chief marshal.

WANTS TO ANNEX THESSALY

Constantinople, May 1.-THE porte
has replied officially to the note of the
powers, and declines to agree to an ar
mistice until the following conditions
are accepted: The annexation of Thes-
sally, an indemnity of 10000 600, Turk
ish. and the abolition of the capltula-
tions. The porte proposes that pleni-
potentiaries of the powers should meet
at Pharsalos to discuss the terms Of
peace, and declares that if these con-
ditions are declined the Turkish army
will continue to advance.
The demand for the annexation OF
Thessaly is based upon the fact that
the province was originally ceded to
Greece on the advice of the powers,
with the object of ending brigandage
and Greek incursions into Ottoman ter
ritory The porte believed at the time
that the cession would attain these OBJ
iects, but the recent incursions of
Greek bands and the events immedi-
ate.y preceding the war have proved
to the contrary. This is the substance
of the reply.
The porte's reply demands, in its con-
cluding paragraph, an extradition

treaty with Greece, and that the ports
cf Volo and Prevesa be kept open for
vessels carrying food supplies to the
Turkish troops.
The ambassadors met yesterday to
consider the porte's answer, which is
regarded as raising an extremely grave
issue. It is believed that representa-
tions win be made the sultan person.
ally to induce a modification of these
terms, but it is foreseen that this will
be very difficult, owing to the atti-
tude of the powerful old Turk war
party. If the porte should prove OBJ
durate an European conference is not
improbable, although at present Rus
sia is opposed to this.
Germany is urging the sultan to in
sist upon the European control of
Greek finances as the only means of
securing the payment of an indemnity
Representatives of the Deutsche bank
will arrive next Saturday to realize in
the promise Of important concessions
which the sultan has made to the bank
1t is regarded as quite certain that
the powers will not consent to a retro
cession of Thessaly. Even Germany is
believed to be resolute on this point,
because it would involve a violation OF
the Berlin treaty and imperil the peace
Of the Balkans.
Altogether the reply of the porte has
caused the greatest surprise. 1t ap-
pears that during the discussion Of the
note from the powers by the council
of the sultan's ministers news reached
the council that 5000 Greeks had land
ed at Palona and were marching to
Janina with the intention of cooper
ating with other forces from Arta
This created a bad impression among
the ministers.
The sultan has ordered a distribution
of troops at various points along the
Salonica railway. Official dispatches
have been received from the command
ant at Janinai who says that the
Greek forces, approaching the town by
a narrow gorge from the direction of
Gremenitza, charged the heights of
Griboro and Kokonaria, but suffered
heavily losing 200 killed while on the
other side the Greeks were driven back
upon Paraskevi. The commandant
states also that fighting has occurred
at Kumuzades. No further letails arc
given. except that all these battles
lasted until evening, and that the inn
perial troops retained their position,
with the probability that the Greeks
/ will be reinforced and the fighting re-
newed. No statement is made as tc
/ the Turkish losses.
/ The Turkish commander at Luros
/ telegraphs under Saturdays date as
| follows: The outcome of a desperate
/ battle lasting two days against a force
/ of $1,000 Greeks is that the latter have
