AHTA , May 14. C p. in. Desperate flght-
Ing has been hi progress all day near Grl-
bore on the road to Phlllpplada. Two bri
gades of Greeks with many guns , two com-
panlea of sappers and a squadron of cavalry ,
attacked the Turks , who were almost with
out artillery. The Greeks forced the first
Turkish line of defense , but met with a
stubborn resistance at the bccond. In sev
eral places the bayonets were so close to the
cannon tl at the former could not bo used.

HAMPERS PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
LONDON , May II The correspondent of
the limes at Athens says :
"The resumption of offensive operations In
Eplrus greatly complicates the situation and
tends to hamper the negotiations for peace.
The evident Intention of the Greek com
manders Is to capture thc < Turkish positions
thcro In order to show that they have not
been defeated ,
"In an Interview today M. Rulll , the pre
mier , lepeated his statement that humani
tarian moves are responsible for the advance
In Eplrus but ho did not deny the advan
tages which might bo hoped for from the
capture of Prevesa , and the occupation of
the adjoining Turkish territories
" 'Wo are still nt war , ' ho said , 'and until
an armistice Is concluded Greece retains her
liberty of action. We cannot allow our ac
tivity to bo confined to The. saly , where the
Turkish are preponderant. The paw era have
hindered us from acting In Crete , but Greece
cannot bo barred ever } where- nor compelled
to restrict nor be compelled to restrain her
actions to a limited area. AV'o have done
our best to obtain an armistice and until It
Is secured wo must act whcro wo can. If
wo have not piesscd the war at various
points nnd among the Islands of the Aegean
sea , It IH only because we have taken into
consideration the sufferings to which the
Greek population might be subjected '
'Tho government apparently thinks that
a renewal of the war will hasten instead of
retard the armistice This calculitlon ma }
provo to bo correct , but It Is moro likely that
Turkey will scl/e upon It na an excuse for
delaying the armlstlco and will deal a crush-
lnj blow In Thensily. "

WASHINGTON' , May 14. President Me-
Klnlcy has under earnest consideration the
advisability ot sending a message to con-
grcsa nett week on the Cuban question , but
has not } et come to a decision In the matter ,
though he Is nt present Inclined to send to
the legislative branch a communication BUK-
gcstlng that measures be adopted to relieve
the distress among American Uhldcnts In
Cuba. The message , If It goes In , will bo
cntliely pacific 1m tone , and It can be stated
on good authority will not bo ot a warlike
or sensational tenor. In order to have the
factt on which to predicate a message , Mr.
McKlnley has had cablegrams sent to ever }
consular ofllccr In Cuba asking each of them
to give cxac' ' Information as to the status of
affairs In hla district and to tele-graph replies
at once It Is understood todaj by some
members of the senate committee on foreign
iclatlons that this Information no doubt
would bo communicated to the senate , but
whether It would be accompanied by a mca-
sago recommending action was jet a matter
of doubt. The piospccts arc , however , that
considerable opposition may develop In the
senate to , i klnglc proposition of relief Sena
tor Burrows of Michigan today pointed out
the objections to such a | rocedure.
"Aro we going to feed the Spanish army
and assist We > ler in his campaign ? " he
asked. "The dlstilbutlon of relief Is almost
Impossible ) and the scheme thoroughlv Im
practicable. How Is the citizenship of the
people asking relict to bo determined and
must there be an Investigation of the citizen
ship of every starving woman and child who
asks relief ? Wo will bo prevented from tak
ing care of the Americana In the Insurgent
lines and cannot relieve distress even In the
Insurgent hospitals We shall simply bo
helping Spain feed her hungry people "
The cabinet met at 10 o'clock this morning
an hour earlier than usual , to discuss the
Cuban situation. Secretary Sherman brought
over from ! the State department a number of
documents , presumably reports of Consul General -
oral Lee. After the meeting had convened
Assistant Secictary of State Diy arrived with
some additional papers. The Cuban situation
was gone over In detail , as shown by the
latest reports from the Island. It was an
nounced after 11 o'clock that a message on
Cuba would not ba sent to congress on Monday ,
but whether or not ono will be scut In later
In the week Is not yet settled.
NO OBJECTION TO UELIEF WORK.
The Spanish minister , Depuy do Lome ,
called at the State department shortly before
noon today and conferred for some time with
Assistant Sccretarj Day relative to the re
ported Intention of this government to send
relief to American sufferers In Cuba. The
minister gave assurance that the Spanish
government would bo In s > mpathy with any
benevolent movement nnd would lend every
aealitanco to It It was recalled by the min
ister that four months ago he had written
the olllccrs of the lied Cross soelctj giving , In
oehalf of his government , full authority for
extending aid to the sufferers In Cuba. Since
then , however , no steps toward relief have
been taken.
The Spanish minister does not question the
existence ot misery and suffering In the
Island , but declares that It Is such only us
accompanies Insurrection and war , heightened
In this case by the dlseas ° s peculiar to trop
ical countries. U Is stated that these con
ditions have existed for months and 1me
be on well known. As to the severltj of the
nifferlng. It Is said , It consists only In the
lick of adequate food , medicine and nursing
for the sick and destitute. The statements
that the people- are djlng In the streets are
not admitted at the legation , but are dis
credited , and as to the Americans , It Is paid
that there are n number of well-to-do Ameri
cans In Cuba who would icllove any ex
treme distress on the pait of their fellow
countrjmen
The manner of sending relief to Cuba , If
It shall be decided upon by the president and
congress , has been discussed among ofllclalfi
and In some quartcra tt Is felt that the dis
patch of a vessel would be Inadvlsibl" It
In said that the quickest and surest way
would bo to send relief by the ordinary
freight routes which have facilities for
reaching the various portb and Interior points
In Cuba The centers of suffering aio widely
separated , so that a relief vpt > scl to any ono
poit would eicounter maiiv dela > s and dlf-
tlcultleti In giving eneedy relief to the people
needing It
MATTERS AIIE MORE QUIET.
The fact that the senate was not In session
toJay and that comparatively few scnalors
woio at the capital had a quieting effect on
Cuban affairs There was still , however ,
much Interest In the course that the matter
ma } take on Monday. Sonalor Morgan said
the message of the president , it it should
onlj apply to tcllef measure.s In the way of
food and clothing , would not cause him to
deviate from his purpose of pressing his
resolution for the recognition of n state of
war as ho had given notice ho would do
before It was assumed that the president
would send In such a message. The friends
of thoMoigan resolution will not antagonl/co
measures contemplating temporal'relief , but
they am not disposed to accept such meas
ure's In place of a moro general and fur-reach-
Ing declaration.
'Ihoopposition alco probably will acquiesce
In a resolution appropriating money to re-
llov Immodlutoantn fcmttor Halo , who
Is generally rcrognUcdas the leader of the
opposition to all treasures looking to a gen-
oial declaration In the Cuban Interest , Is

also oppose > such measures as a rule , * said
today that while theio were objections to
extending our charity to such an extent , ho
would not be disposed to offer opposition to
jiich a measure. Some of the pro-Cubans
take * the position that any supplies sent to
Cuba nould mcrnly aid the Spanish cause ,
as they would practically amount to a contri
bution to Spain Hence there Is a possibility
of apposition to the proposed charity
Senator Morgan has no purpose of chang
ing the farm ot his resolution In any respect.
"I was fully aware of the situation when I
| pit pun el the resolution , " he said today , "and
therefoie find In the lecent publications con
cerning It no icason foi the alteration of my

NEW YORK. May U , The proceedings
brought by the heirs of the late Jo } Gould to
have the amount ot the Inheritance tax fixed
was argued before the appijlato division of
the supreme court today. IfvSenator D U.
Hill , principal counsel for tip comptroller of
the city and county of New , York , who was
expected to make the leading argument , was
absent when the case was called and John R
Dos Pasiou made Urn argument. Ho urged
that the legacy ot $5,000QOO , to George Gould
was In reality a mere gift ana van not a pay
ment of a debt for ssrvlcts rqoederd by George
Gould for his father. The $ ,000,000 re-'ferred
to 1-ad been exempted by tb ( ; suriogate when
the will was probated Eic-Judge John r.
Dillon argued the case for the heirs
Decision wan reversed , tfho Gould estate
was appraised by David lleClure , who was
appointed by Surrogate Fitzgerald , at $80,000 , .
000 gross and $72,000.000 net value , and he
fixed the amount of tax at $578,000. From
this decision both the state and thu heirs ap
pealed The chief Kr-Kad for the state's
appeal was that Mr JJcCluro allowed a claim
for $5,000,000 for wrvlces rendered by George
Gould to his father tq count an a debt against
the estate and to reduce Its net value by that
amount The chief point onMhlch the heirs
based the appeal was that the securities
which constituted the hulk of the estate wcro
wrongly appraised , They assert that If [ ho
Gould securities had been thrown on the mar
ket at once there would have been a fall In
price of 20 or 30 points , or even more. To
appraise the share * at the quotations of the
Stock exchange at the time of Mr , Gould's
death , was , they argu * > , unfair ,

THE BEE VS ASSOCIATED PRESS
In order that the public may have an nccurato comprehension of the decision
court In the case brought by The Bee to restrain the Associated Pre's from makli
tracts for news sen Ice with other newspapers In the territory covered by Tin
exclusive contract without first arriving at satisfactory terms of reparation of Hnj
the following vital piragraphs ot Judge Keysor'a opinion arc printed , together wj
stipulation filed by The Bee and the subsequently signed order of the court :
TIJVr OI ? TUB OPINION.
"Now , I am milling to say this , that whether or not there Is mutuality In tl
not mutuality but n contract In this case between the World-Herald and The
this tlino , I do not think that under the law of the state , as quoted In this sti
under the general law which should prevail In favor ot private parties hj
equal standing before the great corporations of this country , that whether 01
World-Herald has a contract It ought to 1mo a contract If It wants It. Hut I Think
that The tlco should bo heard I think that Mr. llosewater or The Ueo Publishing
company hive a right before that contract Is entered Into to appear biforo the As
sociated 1'ress directory and bo heard , ninko his objections and Insist upon his terms ,
and state the reasons uliy certain terms should bo given. I think that ho has that
right and I think that IT IS A DUTY THAT THK ASSOCIATED PHESS OWES TO
HIM TO MAKI3 HIM SOME UI2PAUAT10N FOIl TH12 EXTRA MONEY HE HAS EX
PENDED AND NOT TO ALLOW THE WOHLD-HEUALD TO COME IN HERE NOW
ON AN EQUAL FOOTING WITH HIM , when this Associated Press Is In a better con
dition than It c\er was before , come In on an equal footing , \\ltliout giving him some
recompense for the tlino and money expended and the rhk ho has taken.
"It wa said jesterday that the World-Horald lost $2I > ,000 bj losing Its franchise vvh n
thn United Press wont down. Suppose the Associated Press went down , where would Mr.
Hosewater's franchise ha\o been ? Ho would lm\o been out more than $23,000 , Includ
ing the money ho had expended for tolls alid extra war funds.
"Now I am going to do this. I am going to lot this restraining order stand hero
Just as It is until after the meeting of HICHO stockholders In Chicago , which will occur
In a week or two , nnd let Mr. Ilosewnter go before that board of stockholders and pre-
edit his claim there and let them make some arrangements. If they don't malco some ar
rangements I will It this ease Is tried bcforo me Uut the Atsoclated Press must give
the World-Herald and the Lincoln Journal .1 franchise , glvo them a right to publish thin
news ; put them on an equal business standing , so far as the Associated Press Is con
cerned , and let them vvoi/c / out their own salvation hero In local matters.
"Now It la eald , how can Mr. Ilceewatcr bo recompensed ? Who whall say what his
damages 1mo been ? Well , In the llrst place n court of equity has got pretty liberal
power In that regard , nnd In the second place an example has been set hero for this court.
When Mr. llosewater came Into some association a few jears ago it has been stated tome
mo hero that ho had to pay nine or ten thousand dollars to get In and that he had to pay
as much tolls to these papers as the other two papers , the Omaha Herald and the Omaha
Republican , were pajIng. Well , If this matter could ha\o been bettlcd then on a Just
basis for the Herald and the Republican thcro Is no reason why It cannot be settled on
a Just basis for The JJeo , and I do not see any reason why a court of eqult > cannot gel at
It , and If a board of equity cannot get at it a court of equity can get within fl\o or ten
thousand dollars ot It , and what Is five or ten thousand dollars to the Arsoclated Press
when It has an Income , I am told , which is ono thousand dollars a day o\cr and ubo\o Its
expenses It Is better to make a mistake against this Associated Press of $25,000 than
to hamper nnd destroy the papers of this city and Lincoln , papers that have been built
up at an enormous cost. "
