A11 tne representatives have promised in their replies to nse their best offices, except the German minister, who has merely acknowleged the receipt of the note. The porte is inclined to support the powers, with a view to the facilitation of negotiations, but it declines to con.sent to an armistice, on the ground that this would enable Greece to reorganize her forces. As a matter of fact, Turkey continues to send troops from Salonica homeward, and it is probable that Osman Pasha has returned to Constantinople from Salonica. In view of both facts, i it may be assumed that nothing se*

nous is expected, but the continuance of & state of war is regarded as the very best means of hastening the efforts of diplomacy. Without doubt hopes have been raised in Tnrkey that the Ottoman empire might annex Thessaly and restore the old frontier of 1831, but the sultan is not inclined to risk such a step. On the contrary, he opposes it uncompromisingly, and will not yield to the press are of the war party at Constantinople. He will be satisfied with a reasonable indemnity and a slight rectification of the eastern Thessalian frontier, such a one as would give Turkey several strategic positions in the vicinity of Nezero6.

The Turks do not molest the inhabitants of the villages they have occupied, but they have burned houses and plundered several churches at Pharsalos. In the course of an interview, CoL Vassos said: “The union between Crete and Greece is now an actual fact.and nothing is lacking but the consent of Europe.

The union of Crete and Greece is inevitable and a necessity.” It is reported in official circles that Queen Olga has sent a telegram to the czar soliciting the meditation of Russia. The Occupation of Yolo by the Turks. Volo, May 10.—Describing the entry of the Turkish troops the corresponddent says:

Edhem Pasha sent a nag- of truce with a proclamation that he would protect all inhabitants remaining in the town. A touching scene ensued. In the principal street an immense crowd gathered, with anxious, upturned faces, listening eagerly to the reading of the proclamation which was to decide their fate. When the reading was finished a murmur of intense relief was heard throughout the dense throng quickly followed by frantic shouts of “Long Lire the Sultan.” But there still remained cause for the most serious anxiety, for the question was then whether the Greek, admiral, whose ships were lying off the town and in plain sight would accept Edhem Pasha’s terms. A single gunshot from the fleet would have compelled the Turks to treat Volo as hostile. Three newspaper men, myseli among them, were appointed a deputation to go on board the flagship and get the admiral’s reply. We bore a white flag. At the quay, however, wc met the captain of the foreign warships with a written communication from the admiral saying that he intended to remain in front of the town until assured that it would be occupied quietly. To this the Turkish commander replied that only one battalion would enter, the main army going into camp outside, and he again requested that the Greek fleet be withdrawn, otherwise he could not be responsible for what might occur. _ Qncc* will Ask Ik* P«wm for PtfwIolM Athens, May The government Has addressed a request to the powers to allow their admirals in Cretan waters to permit the Greek warships toembark tile troops that have been recalled as due to the urgent need of men for the defense of Thessaly. The latest news from the front is that Gen. Smolenski is now with the Greeks forces at Persepla, where he is expecting a fresh attack. M.
