Cakea, Mnruli 9. 10 :25 a. m. The
cordon of Turkish troops drawn around
Akrotierie is being reattacked by the
insnrpents. Severe fighting is proceed
ing. Fighting between the insurgents
and the Turks commenced at 2 o'clock

the heights of Akrotierie, near here, the

the powers on February 21. The result
of the engagement is not known, but the
Greek flag is not visible this morning
'above the land insurgents' position.
In addition to ordering the Greek vice
consul to leave this island, Admiral
Cineviro, the Italian officer, who by

Greeks to leave Crete immediately.
COKHETT STOCK 18 ON THE RISE.

Io-
Mi ire Confidence.
Caeso.v, Nev., March 9. The weather
is pleasant, but the roads are execrable.
The curious visitor who eallB at Camp
Eitzsimmons does bo generally at the
price of a suit of clothes. The road to
Ccrbett's camp is somewhat better, but
in any other part of the world would not
be classed as a road at all.
The feeling iu favor of Corbett is grow
ing stronger as the number of sporting
men here increases. One reason for this
is that the champion trains iu a syste
matical manner, which all visitors can
comprehend. Fitzsimmone, on the
other hrind, trains as bis somewhat er
ratic fancy seems to dictate. He is a law
unto himself, in his training as well as
in his method of fighting, and many men
are betting against him because they do
not think such ways as his can put a
man in condition necessary for success
In the ring.
Dan Stuart is not able to leave the
house yet. He did manage to get out of
doors yesterday for a short time, but did
not attempt to make a trip to his office.
It will be several days before he is able
to attend to bueinees.
Fitzsimmons put in as much time dur
ing the early morning playing with hie
as he did working, but along toward
noon concluded that a little leg work
wouw he the thing for him, and began
'Printing up and. down the yard for a
hort time, and was at home to do a lit
le light work in the gymnaBium before
dinner. Mre. Fitzsimmons reported to
her husband that there were very many
people in the East who "were Corbett,"
and she questioned whether she should
nave done any betting.
"I am going to win the fight," said
Fitzaimmons. "You should judge from
that whether you should have done any
Siting. If I ehould lose, however, don't
flk me to pay your debts, because it I
"on't win I ehall have a few troubles of
toy own." '
"1 don't care much about how betting
Be, anyhow,' continued Fitzaimmons.
I have generally been on the short end,
and U don't worry me a bit. They said
"all was aalnv in lint mo on.i n ran ft nil
Wa8 going to do tho same thing. Well,
Jon know how they did it. You also
J"8' know that Corbett is going to do it
the earne way they did, and no other."
Corbett put in his time as usual this
morning, doing some light work and
i';jing handball. Yesterday morning

FIUST MEETING OF THE CABINET
Brief Formal Cimference 'Was Held
This Morning.
Washington, March 9. President Mc
Kinley and the cabinet held their first for
mal meeting at 11 o'clock today. There
was the usual early rush of public men,
many of whom were received by the
preeident.
The silver Republican senators, Teller,
of Colorado; Pettigrew, of South Da
kota, and Cannon of Utah, who with
drewfrom the St. Louis convention, and
Senator Warren, of Wyoming, spent
five or ten minutes with McKinley. No
allusion to party or politics was made.
The president Ehowed his uBual cor
diality and there was no evidence in
manner or word of the divisions result
ing from the national convention.
Following this group came another,
comprising the entire Republican mem
bership of the nays and means commit
tee, headed by Chairman Dingley. This,
too, was a call of courtesy.
Senator Allison and Representative
Dolliver, of Iowa, called to urge the ap
pointment of State Senator Ericsson, of
Iowa, as minister to Norway and
Sweden. Dolliver placed on file peti
tions in Ericsson's behalf from nearly
every Western state. Ex-Minister W.
W. Thomas, of Maine, had been the
foremost candidate for the Swedish
mission, but the appearance of Ericsson
involves lively competition.
The cabinet was in session an hour to
day, but it is etated no question of im
portance was considered.
At 2 :30 p. in. Senator Hanna called at
the White House, and was shown at
onc3 to the president' office.

March 9. Now that
tha inauguration of McKinley has be

periodical redistribution of offices which
accompanies tne aaveni oi uc u

GllEtCE IS TOO SLOW
Her Dilatory Course Does Not flense
the Towers.
London, March 9. It was learned in
official quarters this afternoon that thore
s uot the slighest chance that the pow
ers will tolerate tho presence of the
Greek troops in Canea. As soon as the
powers hnve had time to exchange views,
Greece will b9 notified of the measures
decided upon for immediate enforcement
of their decision. Germany and Russia
are pressing for immediate action.
St. Petersburg, March 9. The gov
ernment expresses a determination to
adhere to the decision to push the coer
cion of Greece to the farthest limit if
necessary, and earnestly hopes the other
powers will display equal firmness. Be
sides the blockade of Crete and the Pira
eus, it is understood the foreign admirals
have been ordered to fire upon any Greek
torpedo boats approaching the warships.
SITUATION AT CANEA.
Warships Ready to Kesist Any Attack
by Greek Torpedo-Boats.
New York, March 9. A Herald spe
cial from Canea says:
An attack by the Greek torpedo-boats
upon the town has been expected. The
warships extinguished their lights and
prepared for action. The hour, how
ever, passed off quietly in Canea, though
there was an affair at the outposts of
Plantania. Any hostile action on the
land side will meet with the energetic
resistance of the Greek warships, which
still lie at anchor off this port.
The road at Suda is being strongly
guarded, in consequence of the menac
ing attitude of the insurgents.
The foreign garrisons occupying Canea
have not been reinforced.
Owing to unfavorable weather the
landing at Selino of 550 foreign marines
with four guns has only just been carried
out.
Considered In Caucus.
Washington, March 9.The Demo
cratic senators were in caucus an hour
and a half today considering the advisa
bility of forming a coalition with the
eilver Republicans and Populists for con
trol for the senate. The meeting author
ized Senator Gorman, chairman of the
caucus, to appoint a new steering com
mittee to consider the situation in all its
bearings and report to a future confer
ence.
There was a general attendance of
democratic senators, though Lindsay
was the only gold Democrat present.
Neither Gray nor Caffery was there, but
it was not "believed by those present
that theii absence had any significance.
Feeling at St. I'etersburK-
New Yokk, March 9. A special to the
Herald from St. Petersburg says :
The feeling here has grown pessimistic,
owing to Greece's evident intention to
provoke war at all hazards. It is now
under consideration what attitude the
nowers will be called upon to assume in
Crete in the probable event of war which
Russia is is etriving in every way to
itop. ,
The Mount Lebanon Shakers have in
rented aureat many valuable things.
They were the first to make brooms by
machinery: the first to put up seeds in
litttle packages; the first to manufacture
cut nails.
Now they are out with a method of cur
ing dyepepsia by resting the stomach.
Their remedy is known as the shaker
Digestive Cordial. It supplies food in
an artificially digested form and at tho
same time aids the digestion of other
foods in the stomach. In other words,
bv the use of the Shaker Digestive Cor
dial, a dyspeptic virtually gets along
without the use of his stomach until it
is restored to its natural strength and
vigor. A single 10 cent bottle will oft
times give marked relief. Get a bottle
from your druggist and try it.
Laxol is tho best medicine for chil
dren. Doctors recommend it in place of
Castor Oil.

. New York, March 9. A Herald spe
cial from Valparaiso says :
While the returns of tho congressional
and municipal elections are yet incom
plete, it is known that the conservatives,
who made a brave tight, were severely
disciplined. The party which really
gained ground in the election and ob
tained several seats in congress was the
allied liberal and Democratic factions,
composed largely of adherents of the
late President Balmaceda. The party
also secured a strong representation
throughout tho republic in the muni
cipal boards. The conservatives declare
they are satisfied, but their chagrin is
shown in many ways.
Tho government has been accorded
great praise for the prudent manner in
which it acted in preserving order.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all otlie diseases put
together, ami until the last few years
was supposed to bo incurable. For a
great many years.doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, anil there
forerequires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is tho
only constitutional cure on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from ten
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testmoninls. Address,

A party of Italian students who have
volunteered for Greek service have

Athens.
ECZEriA, greatest of skin dis

suffering than all others combined.
Tender babies are

Sleep is out of the question.
