The Balkan War cloud.

London, April H. Letters received
here from Crete state that affairs there
are very threatening. The trouble in
Macedonia has augmented the movement
for a union of the island with Greece,
which is now reaching crisis. Prince
George Of Greece recently made tour OF
Crete. He was received with wild en-
thusiasm. Everyone opposing union,
however, treated the prince as a traitor.
NJ. Venizello, former minister of justice,
and author of the proposal to make Crete
principality, under Greek prince,
only secured six supporters in the recent
elhction out of "A deputies because he
was accused of not being true to the

salutary lesson to the Germans not
to truckle to America. II is now clear,
the paper continues, that permanent
friendly relations between Germany and
America are impossible. The Tagliche
Rundschau says it is a smack in the face
for Germany, and Germans will never
forget the insult. The Deutsche Ieitung
welcomes the incident because it clears
the air and shows the Germans how the
Americans really regard them. Most
of the papers comment in similar strain.
Washington, April 17.-Navy Depart
ment officials allege that the unfavOrable
criticism by the German press upon the
action of the Department in ordering
the European squadron to Marseilles is
based upon missapprehension of the
situation. 1t was not the European
squadron, but the North Atlantic squad
ron that was invited by the Kaiser TO
Kiel. The invitation was extended at
a time when it was contemplated that
the North Atlantic squadron would visit
European waters. Later the plans were
changed, and it was decided not to send
the North Atlantic squadron to Europe
at all this summer, hence the Kaiser S
invitation was declined. The European
squdron has been cruising in the Medi-
terranean, and its presence at Marseilles
will not interfere with any of the plans
of its itinerary.

Mr.. J. PrERPONT MORGAN, leading
advocate of the Northern Securities mer-
ger, has sustained pronounced loss OF
prestige in the financial world as a re-
suit of the recent adverse decision in that
case. That fact has been emphasized
every day since the decision. Men po-
tent in Wall street, who had recognized
and relied upon the ability and sagacity
of the man, it is now said have turned
from him. In their opinion, Mr.. flor-
gan's wonderful and increasing successes
led him beyond the depth of wisdom.
Vanity, sustained by the former results
of his bold moves, turned his head He
came to believe, think his former friends,
that the power OF Morgan was far beyond
the reach of restraining influences. Men
who had been his steadfast followers
have lost confidence. As q result, cOur-
age has been given to influential inter
ests in opposition to Mr.. Morgan and his
methods. He is held responsible for the
present condition of the market, over
loaded with "undigested" securities,
many of which bear the Morgan brand.
Directly and indirectly, whether wrong
fully or not, he is blamed for encourag-
ing overcapitalized concerns.
