London, Feb. 9. Private' and official
advices nnd private letters from England
officers show the troubles in Crete were
...l,.lfa11 tr nnnaoA hv flrpplr nnritntnra
nnd that the Christians are undoubtedly
the aggressors. The Greek government,
believing the end of the Ottoman empire
near, thinks the time a good opportunity
to carry out a long-cherished desire to
annex Crete.
Public oflicials here and on the Conti
nent regard the situation as threatening
the peace of the Whole of Europe. In
the event of a collision between Turkey
and Greece, it is doubt'ul Whether the
entente of the powers Jmay be main
tained. Papers everywhere urge the
powers to bring pressure to bear on
Greece to prevent further aggravation to
Turkey.
It is announced today that Turkish
warships and a transport have left Con
stantinople for Crete and that in spite
of the advice of his miniBterB and am
bassadors the sultan favors the dispatch
of troops and suppressing the troubles
by force.
A dispatch to the Times from Canea
says :
"The immediate cause of the out
break was the news of troubles at
Heraklion. . Before dawn half the Mo
hamniedans had left the town and great,
numbers fired upon Galatia and other
villages. The Christians descended from
the mountains in strong force, and dur
ing the next two days there were inces
sant conflicts around Canea, in which
the Christians appeared to have had the
advantage. Efforts of the consuls and
bishops to pacify them failed, and the
Mohammedans, who had been aroused
to the utmost, found themselves unable
to continue their expedition into the
country.
"The excitement among the Christians
at Canea increased, but the first fighting
in the town was on Thursday, which
commenced with desultory shots and in
a few moments became general and in
cessant. The shooting continued until
dark. Among the victims were Turkish
soldiers, hut the troops nevertheless,
under creat provocation, behaved excel
lently." UltCEKEU TO CKKTK.
All Available Grecian Warships Put In
Commission.
Athens, Feb. 9. The latest reports
from Canea are to the effect that the sit
uation on the island of Crete is critical,
to say the least. In Canea it is eaid
that the Christians have hoisted the
Greek flag and invited the commander
of the Greek fleet to train his guns on
the city in the name of the king of
Greece. It is also stated.that the Greek
squadron, on arriving at Canea, did not
salute the Turkish flag.
If these rumors are true the whole
island is probably in a turmoil of war,
and the foreign fleets may have to take
action to prevent further disorders.
The Greek cruiser Hiaculis has started
for Retlmo, where the Mussulmans oc
cupied Christiau quarters and are pillag
ing stores and houses. Three thousand
Turkish troops have been concentrated
at Salonica in readiness to embark for
Crete, but the navigation company re

The official gazette todayjjpublishes a
royal decree commissioning all the
available warships of Greece and order
ing the immediate dispatch of addi
ditional warships to Crete.
The proclamation issued by the Cretan
committee in this city, calling upon all
freemen for assistance, was received with
great enthusiasm, and many responses
have been made in the .shape ot finan
cial donations and offers of physical eer
vice, if necessary. Criesof "Long live
the Union" and "Long liveCrete" are
heard on the streets in all.lparts.'Jof the
city.
Nor are thp demonstrations infavor of
union with Crete confined to this city.
Reports from cities and towns in all
parts of the kingdom indicate that the
people are aroused and determined to
make the present trouble on the island
of Crete an occasion for revenging them
selves on their old enemies, 'the Turks,
by gaining control of Crete.
The island belongs to Turkey, but has
numerous Grecian population. Its
history has been one of bloodshed since
the TurkB wrested it from the Venetians
in 1G60. Fiuhting between the fanatic
Mussulmans.'and Christians has been
going on for some time, and only last
year Turkey was forced, by the concert
of powers, to institute relorms, which,
however, seem to be of little benefit.
In the lust few weeks dailv reports of
massacres of Christians have been re
ceived, and there has been a tremendous
pressure on the Grecian government to
succor the persecuted Christians.
The representatives of some of the
powers have expressed to the Greek gov
ernment surprise at the fact that war
ships have been sent to the island of
Crete, and that open demonstrations in
favor of the uniou of Greece and Crete
are tolerated throughout the kingdom.
The report that the Christians are
forming a provisional government on
the island is not given much credence in
this city, as the latest news from Canea
indicates that the Christians are fighting
under the flag of Greece all along the
line.
BUTJLKK IN COURT.
His Uonnvel Will Fight Bard
to I're-
vent Extradition.
San Fbancisco, Feb. 9. The corridors
of the appraisers building, wherein are
the United States courts, were crowded
long before the time for the Butler trial
today His examination for extradition
was held before Comissioner Heacock,
and his attorneys were plainly intending
to make a technical opposition to every
move of the prosecution. No point is
missed by Butler's counsel which will
serve as a basis for resisting the applica
tion for extradition.
The proceedings to day were formal
and of a routine character. Butler's ar
rest on the Swanhilda was described by
Sergeant Bunner, and the finding of his
valise with books marked Lee Weller
and other incriminating evidence was
described by Buhner. The proceedings
will likely last threo or four days, after
wliich the findings will be sent to the
secretary of state for approval.

Iioiv Admiral Itunce's fSquadrou Fought
the Waves.
Chaklksto.v, S. 0., Feb. 9, Further
particular of how the North Atlantic
squadron weathered the fierce gale
Friday inight state that the flagship New
York fared better than either of the
others, although the turbulent seas toss
ed eo badly that it was feared the bin
eight-inch guns would run away, and
they were lashed in the turrents with
heavy hawsers Once a mountainous
wave dashed over the stern, flooded the
after companionwav with water, and
rushed in torrents down into the officers'
quaters. The water also came in
through the ports, torpedo tubes and the
turrets were flooded.
William Anderson, while standing on
the forward deck, was struck from his
feet by a wave and badly injured by be
ing dashed against the steel sides. Na
val Cadet Castleman had a narrow es
cape for his life, He was standing for
ward ou the quarterdeck, when a sea
snipped forward strnck him. He lost
his footing and was being carried off
over the side when he luckily manage to
grasp a lifeline, and although the shock
nearly tore that from his grasp, he hung
on and saved himselt. One of the offi
cers narrowly escaped being carried over
the side of the vessel when the
sea washed the ship astern. The sound
ing apparatus was knocked to pieces and
washed overboard.
From what can be gathered and from
her appearance, as Bhe lies anchored in
the harbor, it would appear that the
monitor rode the gale more successfully
than others of the fleet.
Deafness Cannot bo Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restoredjto its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

Satford, Ariz.., writes : "Di;. King's New
Discovery is all tha is claimed for it; it
never fails, and is a sure cure for Con
sumption, Coughs, and Colds. I cannot
say enough for its merits." Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption,

It has been tried for a quarter of a cen
