I
London, May '.'I.— The Grrco-Turk- j
Ish situation, according to tiic latest {
advices from both Athcu and fon- j
stantinoplc, is becoming serious once
more. Turkey insists on the payment
hy Greece of ut least the Turkish ex
penses of tlie war arul a rectification
of the frontier, and to-day the Greek
ministers declared to tlie foreign min
isters at Athens that Greece would
not pay one cent's indemnity to Tur
key nor would it agree to a rectifica
tion of tlie frontier.
f'ut-ther than this, the feeling of the
people of Athens against King George |
uiul Crown I’rince Constantine is grow- j
ing in bitterness and the Austrian ;
cruiser Kronprineessin Stcfanie lias 1
been ordered from Saloniea to I’ha- ,
ierum, near the I’iraeus it lie port of j
Athens) to remain there at tin disposal
of the royal family of (ireeee if re |
(piired to convey them from thateoun ]
try.
Tl'KKM III!KA K THE ARMISTICE.
To a<M still more to the excitement -
in Greece, small bodies of the Turkish ^
right iving in Thessaly advanced vex
terday toward the village of Divri. j
This is a Ougrant breech of the armix- ,
tice. The 'Turks have also pillaged j
the estate of the heirs of I’hotules I’u- \
shu, late Christiun governor of < retc. j
near Sofalis. taking away thirty-eight j
wagon loads of furniture, burning
dwellings, violating women and com- ;
rnittiug many other acts of pillage und ■
outrage.
After the -defeat of Dotnoko* the ;
jieople seemed to expect the immediate
arrival of the Turk* at Athens On
all sides families prepared to go to the
islands and anxious crowd* paraded
the streets.
Some shots were fired at the crown I
prince as he endeavored to stay tin
eon fusion of the retreat from Doino- !
kos. Two Greek battalions were seized ^
with panic and tin retreating soldiers,
on entering Lauiia. could not be re- I
strained by their officers. They
shouted: “'The 'Turks are coming."
'The panic which resulted was in
creased by the jail birds who had been |
released and caused disorder through 1
out the town.
The arrival at Athens of the volun
teers from America yesterday excited
curiosity, but no enthusiasm. They
will proceed to join the army of Crown
Prince Constantine.
ADMIRALS FIRED ON.
I'anea, Crete. May M. — in conse
quence of the departure of the Greeks,
Kashi Itazouks tired upon Admiral
Harris, the British commander, Th-.irs
day afternoon, making it his fourth

were tired at the Trench admiral while
walking in Suda with his chief of
staff. Shots were also tired at a
British signaler and three insurgents
attacked anil disarmed a British lieu
tenant near Suda.
Owing to this last ease, the British
admiral sent an ultimatum to the in
surgents demanding the return of the
lieutenants arms within forty-eight
hours. The ultimatum expired yester
day. und the British cruiser Cumbria
was recalled to Kudu buy to la- pre
pared for eventualities.

Hai.timouk. May -’4.—Twenty years
ago James A. Hooper, an uncle of the
present mayor of llaltimore, lost his
money and some of his wife's in a real

thought him responsible for Hie losses
and refused to speak to him. He re
ciprocated the treatment, and as the
years passed the bitterness increased.
They ate and attended church to
gether, but all efforts of their children
to reconcile them •wire in vain, and
not a word was exchanged.
When Mr. Hooper became sick re
ccntly his wife's hatred did not euli
sicle. Several days ago lie died, aged
s4, and she refused to give the re
(Mjrters any information about him,
saying that nothing would get in the
pa|>crs about him if she could help it.
He was buried yesterday. Mrs. Hoop
er is so years old.

Wasiiino'iox. May 22.—The long ami
exciting debate on tlie joint, resolution
recognizing u state of war In Cuba and
ieclaring that strict neutrality shall
be maintained by the United States,
passe .1 the Senate by the decisive vote
•f ti to M at a late hour yesterday
afternoon The announcement of the
vote was received with tumultuous ap
olause, which drew from Senator Haw
ley an emphatic protest, against "mob
demonstration," The resolution as
passed is as follows:
"Kcsoived. etc.. That a condition of
public war exist* between the govern
ment of Spain and the government
proclaimed and for some time mairi
ta.ned by force of arms by the people
■ if Cuba, and that the United Stub'* of
America ahull maintain a strict neu
trality between the contending par
ties. according to each all the rights of
belligerents in the ports and territory
of the United States."
The vote on the final passage of the
resolution was as follows:
Yeas— Itaeon. Haber, Hate, Iterry,
Htiller. Carter, ('hundler. Chilton.i lav,
Clark. • ockrell. Uullom, Davis. Dehoe.
Uoraker, Galliugcr, Gorman, llans

I nirbanks Gear. Hale. Hariiia. Haw
lev. Hoar. Spooner. Wellington, Wet
mure, White*. Wilson 14.
An analysis of tin- vote shows that
the affirmative was east by eighteen
Republicans, nineteen Democrat* anil
four Populist*, and the negative hy
twelve Republicans and two Demo
crats.
Prior to the final vote, the motion of
Kcniitor Dale to refer the resolution
to the committee on foreign relations,
was tabled: yeas .14. nays Hi.
Mr l-'alrt anks of Indiana, proposed
a substitute, providing that tlie Presi
dent extend the good offices of the
I nited States to Spain towards secur
ing an end to tin- conflict and ultimate
independence of the island. This, too,
was tabled: yeas ,S>, nay* l.Y Then
followed the adoption of the original
resolution.
The voting occurred after an excit
ing debate participated in by Senators
Thurston of Nebraska. Likins of West
Virginia White of < alifornia, Lair
hank* of Indiana, Hale of Maine.
Summer of Wisconsin and Dorman of
Maryland. Mr. Thurston, who pre
sided over the Republican convention
at St. Louis, recalled the stirring
scene when tin- convention enthusias
tically inserted a Cuban plank in the
platform and declared that this reso
lution was a partial fulfillment of that
pledge. Messrs. Likins and White
urged a conservative course and an
inquiry by a committee. Then came
the tirs*. vote--that on the Hale motion
to refer. It was a test of strength arid
the defeat of the motion assured the
passage of the resolution. Mr. L'air
banks tried to stem the tide by offer
ing a compromise proposition, some
what on the lines of the Cuban plank
adopted at St. Louis, but it met the
: uuie fate us the Hale motion.
Mr Hale, in his protest, spoke with
intense earnestness aud feeling, and
with a trace of bitterness in his words.
He dee-lured that the elements op
posed to the administration -Demo
crats and Populists had furnished the
liuik of the vote In favor of the resolu
tion. and that the foreign policy of
tin- administration was thus to be dic
tated by its opponents. lie expressed
the fear that the resolution would lead
to war with Spain. Mr. Npoofteradded
his protest against tying the hands of
the administration. Mr. Doriuau closed
the debate, resenting the suggestion
that party lines were drawn on the
resolution aud ussertiug that the ad
ministration should have disputehi-il u
War vessel to Cuba to protect our nffi
eials on the island.

PRESIDENT WILL WAIT.
No Cuban Action t'ntll Mr. C»lhoa»
Makes Ills It*port.
Wahhinotom, May »2. — President
McKinley nanounced to-day. semi
officially, through Assistant Secretary
hay that his policy of non-interference
In Cuba would continue, at least until
a report should be received from bis
special envoy, William,1. Calhoun, not*
withstanding the action of the Senate
yesterday.
Whatever may be done from time to
time in the legislative branch is looked
upon by the president as a mere ex
pression of opinion, carrying no au
thority, for lie contends, as Secretary
Olneydid, that recognition of belliger
ency is an executive function.
The President will promptly furnish
the supplies voted by Congress to suf
fering Americans in Cuba The (irst
step was taken to day, when part of
the sum voted was made Immediately
available by cable, Secretary Sherman
directing Consul tieneral !«« at Ha
vana to draw for immediate use not to
exceed HI0,000, and to furnish I nited
States consuls in Cuba funds for this
pur|Mise. I nited States Consul Hrice
at Mata a/as has been instructed by
the secretary of state to apply to Con
sul (lencrul Lee for funds with which
to relieve American citizens there.

TELLER TALKS.
I lie < oloradu Srnilur Score* the House
and Two Ad ministration* a* to Coll*
Iikmvkr, fob. May 22. “Spain can
not drive tiiis country into war," said
Senator* Teller to-day in discussing
the action of the Senate in pass
ing the Morgan resolution direct
ing the President to declare that
a state of war exists in tuba. "This
administration is too cowardly to do
anything. It is afraid of offending
Spain. The passage of that resolu
tion does not mean anything at all
except that the President cannot con
trol the Senate as lie does the House.
It will l>e defeated in the House as
sure as it gets there. Reed will say
it shall not pass the President will
say it shall not pass. Hanna will
say it shall not pass, and the
truckling Republicans in the House
will yield. It does riot matter at all
w hat the private opinions of the mem
ber* may he. It is evident that the
administration is entering on a for
eign policy as contemptible and pusil
lanimous as that of ( levelaud was. It
is a shame hut there is no help for it.
The people can only speak through
their representatives and they are
dominated absolutely by the adminis
tration. I cannot conceive of any
public demonstrations vigorous enough
to have any effect on tin- President's
policy.''
