TROOPS TO BE LANDED
Several Loaded Transports
in Canea Harbor.
THE GREEKS WILL BE DRIVEN OUT
Gt!.l Opinion Is That the Foreign
Troop" 'lll merely Occupy the
Cretan Seaport Towns.
Canea, March 10. When the sun
rose this morning it was seen there were
strange vessels at anchor here. They
vere British and Italian transports load
ed with troops, evidently part of the for
eign force which, as the admirals recom
mended, will occupy all the principal
seaport towns of the island.
The Turks assert these troops will
be used to drive the Greek forces out
ol Crete, but this belief is not shared by
the foreign population generally, owing
to the receipt of advices that a band of
armed volunteers from Greece were on
the way to Crete with the intention of
reinforcing the Cretan insurgents. The
foreign uduiirals agreed to dispatch
a cruiser to prevent their landing.
The Mussulmans who were hesiged
at Candamo have arrived here on an
Italian warship.
Feeling In Greece.
New Yoke, March 10. A Herald spe
cial from Athens says :
The general feeling here is that war
against Turkey is unavoidable. It is be
lieved that the armed bands that have
been sent ont by the national league to
different point in Epirus and Macedonia
il! give the signal for the struggle, and
the Greek army on the frontier will then
proceed to an invasion of Turkish terri
tory. The Greek vice-consul in Canea, M.
Eiraklys, having been forcibly conveyed
on board the Alpheus, by order of the
Italian commandant, Ameretta, the
Greek government protested to the min
isters of the powers against the action of
the soldiers.
Opinion at Constantinople.
New Yokk, March 10 A Herald
special from Constantinople says :
The evasive answer of Greece to the
note of the powers has been made known 1
nere. Seeing that the powers have not
Tet changed their views respecting the
measures to be taken in case of a refusal,
he diplomatic circle here ib of the
opinion ibat it will be impossible to
tare recourse to eventual coercive meae
ores before the expiration of two weeks.
is rather believed that thn nnwers
'H continue to negotiate with Greece
to come to an amicable arrangement.
However, tho separate action on the
part of Germany against Greece is not
dissimulated. In that case it is not
opposed that other powers would in
'"fere, since they could only reap ad
Wage should Germany eventually com
promise her position in the East.

Panic am '
almost unprecedented rush to get bonded
goods out of the warehouses before the
increase takes effect.
The proposed summary action of con
gress has taken merchants completely
by surprise. While they were prepared
for a special session to pass a new tariff
bill, they expected that the new bill
would occupy the attention of congress
for at least six months, which would give
them ample time to withdraw the $19-

January 31. It had never occured to
them that congress might adopt a tem
porary measure for increasing the reve
nue, and the possibility of such a thing,
with only about 10 days to get their
goods out of bond, at the present rate of
of duty, caused a genuine sensation. It
is understood that Butterfield & Co., and
other importers of dress goods are among
the heaviest withdrawers.
In banking circles there is a greatly
increased demand for loans on call paper
One bank made a loan of '$500,000 to a
big importing firm for the purpose of
withdrawing goods from bond, and the
payment of duties thereon.
Set a Vicious Dae Upon the Officer.
Chicago, March 10. In order to avoid
arrest, J. J. Duff turned a vicious dog
loose on Officer Erickson yesterday, and
as a result both are in a hospital and it
is feared the policeman may die.
Duff went home drunk, quarreled with
his wife, and, after beating her severely,
turned her from the house. She com
plained to the police, and Erickson was
sent to arrest Duff. He found the dpte
locked, but was admitted by a email
boy. Duff unloosed the big dog aud the
animal leaped at the officer, dragging
him to the floor. He bit him several
times in the face, lacerating the flesh.
The policeman succeeded in getting
his revolver from his pocket and fired,
the bullet taking effect in the lower part
of Duff's abdomen. The wounded man
attempted to seize the officer's weapon
and was himself attacked by the dog.
Both men were lacerated by the dog's
teeth, and when other officers arrived
Erickson waB unconscious. The men
were removed to the hospital and the
dog killed.
Daugern of the Grip.
The greatest dangers from La Grippe
is of it resulting in pneumonia. If rea
sonable Care is used, however, and
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is taken,
all danger will be avoided. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy for la grippe, we have yet to
learn of a single case having resulted
in pneumonia, which shows conclusively
that this remedy is a certain preventive
of that dread disease. It will affect a
oermanent cure in less time than an
other treatment. The 25 and 50 cent

SESSION IS CONCLUDED.
The National Senate Adjourned Sine Die
This .Morning.
Washington, March 10. There was
an unusually large attendance of sena
tors when Vice-President Hobart called
the senate to order at noon today. The
first business was the reading of a letter
from Governor Bradley, of Kentucky,
announcing the appointment of An
drew T. Wood as senator to succeed
Blackburn. Hoar at once moved that
the senator-elect be sworn in. Gorman
moved that his credentials be referred to
the committee on privileges and elec
tions. Hoar said he would not object,
and the credentials were referred.
Then Hoar presented a written notice
of two proposed amendments to the
rules of the senate of a radical nature.
The most important was according to
Hoar's written notice "To enable the
senate to act on legislation when it de
sires after a reasonable debate." It
provides that when any bill or resolu
tion had been under consideration for
more than one day, any senator could
demand that the debate be closed. If a
majority of the senators desired, there
should be a vote without further delay,
and no motion should be in order, pend
ing a vote, but one to adjourn or take
recess.
The other amendment proposed was to
prevent interruption of members of the
senate. It provides that when a senator
G
makes a point of no quorum, there shall
be a roll call, and if the presence of a
quorum is disclosed business should pro
ceed. A memorial was presented by Shoup
from the Idaho legislature, asking for
the annexation of a part of Wyoming.
It was not read. Warren said that it
the Wyoming legislature had been in
formed of the memorial, it would have
taken action.
It was decided on motion of Hoar that
when the senate adjourned, it should be
until Monday at 11 :30, but in executive
session the senate reconsidered its action
and agreed that adjournment would be
sine die. This was found expedient, as
no business could be transacted in half
an hour Monday, and the nominations
made in that half hour would fail if not
immediately confirmed.
At 12:40 the special session ad
journed. Without Amendment.
Washington, March 10. The senate
committee on foreigp relations today
agre'ed to report the Alaekan boundary
treaty with Great Britain without
amendment or change. The arbitration
treaty will be taken up at a special
meeting of the committee next Friday.

While the returns of the congressional

The 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 othe diseases put
together, and until the lnat few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
n 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, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cuic 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
