Athkns May 3. There are nnmer-
oui indications thnt the Ralll ministry
Intends to assume greator direct mili-
tary and nnvnl control and no longer
to divide the responsibility lictwoen
the ministry and the oonrt.
The news of the victory nt Vclestlno
has lnureascd General Suiolenskl's pop-
ularity nnd he is now regarded hs tho
real hero of the campaign. A foreign
officer who saw tJie tight says that the
Turks numbered 3000 und the Greeks
8000.
It is believed that tho decisive con-
flict will be fought at Phursoloa and
probably to-day. Thus far the Turks
have captured It Is estimated war
material and provisions of tho value
of -10000'K) drachmas. It la reported
that as the result of the queen's letter
to the czar Russia will Intervene In
favor of Greece.
Reports ore also current here that
the powers are about to mediate be-
tween Greece nnd Turkey The Italian
and Austrian ministers have had a
long Interview with M. Hnlll and M.
Scoulodls.
A dispatch from Lamia says: "Since
yesterday tho whole body of Greek
troops near l'hnrsalos and Do mole 03
has been drawn up iu order of battlo
but there has been no lighting. The
inhabitants of Plmrsalos have aban-
doned the town In fear of u Turkish
attack and au exodus has begun from
Domokos in the' direction of Lamia
the refugees pitching their touts in the
open country.''
A band of '.'000 irregulars is about
to start for tho front their standard

stantiuedcs diosscd lu tho bamo uni-
form as tho men. She Is au excellent
hot. Her brother will uccompany
her. lloth of them are blttorly untl-
dynastic She declares that she will
light lu the front ranks and has no
fear of death. Her doparture was wit-
nessed by thousands of enthusiastic
Athenians who hall her as tho Greek

populace continue indignant at the
tilling of the railway carriages with
Crown Prince Constantino's bnggugo
In the flight from Larlssa dosplte tho
protest of the railway olUalals. Tho
people say that thoy have been cheated
and betrayed.
Thoy are also angry at tho neglect
of the government to cull out tho ex-
empted reserves who urn for the most
part relative's of mluUtors deputies
and aristocrats.
Laiussa May .1. Tho Christians
who arc returning all say that during
the battle at Mllouna Crown Prince
Constantino was at Kuradoc at tho
foot of tho pass. The Greek army is
described as behaving on that occasion
like u disorderly mob. All discipline
was flung to the winds and tho soldiers.

It Is Impossible to bollevo that tho
armv at Pharsalot can withstand tho
Turks In a pitched battlo. That the
war is now practically over Is plainly
apparent.
London" May 3. Tho dlflloulty In
reconciling the utterly conflicting ac-
counts of tho lighting Is In no wise di-
minished. It Is almost safe to say that
General Smolenbkl's victory at Veles-
tlno was much less Important than It
has bcon represented to bo aud uulusu
the Greeks are able to make a stand at
Pharsalos another disgraceful nstmut
Is Inevitable.
Captain Itabbek of King George's
personal staff wires here from Athens
that the right wing of the Greek army
has repulsed the Turks but that the
left wing has rotreuted behind the old
frontier line to avoid beiug circum-
vented. Captalu Itabbek adds: "The
Qreek army at Rplrus after defeat at
Penteplgadla retired to Arte.. All
hope of continuing the war is now vir-
tually abandoned. The fleet has re-
turned to Voto for the proteotiou of
the inhabitants."
It Is scml-oflloially stated that Lord
Salisbury's proposal to the power for
s. conference at Paris to discuss meas-
ures with a vlow of ending the war
between Turkey and Oreoee has al
ready been under consideration for
several days at the various foreign of-
fices and may now be considered def-
initely abandoned.
The Berlin correspondent of the
Dally Mail learns that the powers will
notcoifsent to the levying of indemnity
upon Greece and that both Austria
and Germany are trying to induce the
porte to modify its demands.
CoNflTANTiNOPr.K May 3 War pre-
parations go on with unabated vigor.
Two commissions composed of officials
of the mlnisteries of public works and
of war have been formed for the pur-
pose of inspeoting railways and facili-
tating the dispatch of troops to the
frontier.
It is officially announced that the
Greeks resident in Turloy may become
aaturallzed as an alternative to leav-
ing the country. This will be com-
pulsory for all Greeks officially em-
ployed in Turkey.

could have been done but certainly no

Oklahoma the land of Bunshiuc
statesmen and scheraors is shortly to
develop another hugo political rcubiv
tlon according to the story told yes-
terday by a gontleman who is wholly
reliable says the Kansas City Journal.
He says that for the past three weeks
an examiner from tho deportment of
justice haB been at Guthrio Investigat-
ing the conduct of the federal officials
and ha run afoul of something that
will cause an exploblou when his re-
port is mnde public According to tho
Btory the examiner secured from one
of tbo deputy United States marshals
employed at Guthrie by Marshal Pat
Nagle a sworn confession that there
had been a conspiracy formed thoro
a few months ago for the purpose of
bank robbery and that two of tho
deputies had been parties to the con
spiracy and were to lead it and pilot
tho gang out of liorm's way. Thoy
wero to so arrango matters that all of
the deputies would bo wlure thoy
could not bo reached at tho time and
escape would thuB bo easily effcotcd.
Tho proposed robbery was frustrated
Biniply because ono of tho dtputlos be-
came suspicious that ho was being
watched and backed out. The nam jet
of tho other conspirators aro all sot
forth in tho confesslou and will bo
given to tho department.
Marshal Nsglo is said to have dis-
charged both of the deputies and prof-
fered tho aid of his olllco to tho de-
partment for tho purpose of s?olog
that all of tho men Implicated aro
speedily brought to justice. In tho in-
vestigation that has boon mado it was
clearly shown that Murshal Nsglo had
been shamefully imposed upon by em-
ployes who enjoyed his full conlidoncr
and it is satd hs is in a great rage.
Tho gontleman said tho supporters
of ox-Marshal Kd Nix woro not taking
any part in tbo investigation of the
row that had been kl ked up but
were simply pointing to It as indica-
tive of the truth of their statements
that Naglo's protended friends would
betray him and that ultlmatoly ho
would bo n victim of star chamber
troachnry just as Marshal Nix was
when ho was thrown down and dis-
missed from office
Ho also said that thcro was a great
deal of talk about tho develop-
ments of tho Inspector and that
it was tho general opinion
that before the matter was concluded
there would bo a fow accessions to the
nnmber from Ok ahoma that were
serving tlmo In prison no said it was
generally understood that tho roport
of tho Inspector had been sent to the
department and would roacii Washing
