THE PORTE’S TERMS, Upon Which the Dogs of War WiU be Called Off, Raise an Extremely Grave Issue and Cause the Greatest Surprise Among the Representatives or the Powers—More Fighting with Indecisive Results. The Porte's Ultimatum to the Powers. Constantinople, May 1ft.—The port*, has replied officially to the note of the powers, and declines to agree to an armistice until the following conditions are accepted: The annexation of Thessaly, an indemnity of 10,000,000 pounds Turkish, and the abolition of the capitulations. The porte proposes that plenipotentiaries of the powers should meet at Pharsalos to discuss the terms of peace, and declares that if these conditions are declined, the Turkish army will continue to advance.

The demand for the annexation of Thessaly is based upon the fact that j the province was originally ceded to | Greece on the advice of the powers with the object of ending brigandage and Greek incursions into Ottoman territory, the porte believing at the time that the cession would attain these objects, but the recent incursions of Greek bands and the events immediately preceding the war have proved to the contrary. This is the substance of the reply: The ambassadors met to-day to consider the porte’s answer, which is regarded as raising An Extremely Grave Issue. It is believed that representations will be made to the sultan personally to issue a modification of these terms, but it is foreseen that this will be very difficult, owing to the attitude of the 1 powerful Old Turk war party, j If the porte should prove obdurate a ■ European conference is not irnprobaI ble. although at present Russia is opI posed to this. It is regarded as quite certain that | the powers will not consent to a retrocession of Thessaly. Even Germany | is believed to be resolute on this point, | !*eeause it would involve a violation of i the Berlin treaty and imperil the peace i of the Balkans. Altogether the reply of the porte has ! caused the greatest surprise. It apj pears that during the discussion of the ' note from the powers by the council of . the sultan's ministers, news reached i the council that3.000 Greeks had landed ! at Paloua and were marching to Janina ! with the intention of co-operating with other forces from Arta. This created a bad impression among the ministers. More Kishttag iu Which it to Claimed the Greeks Were Worsted, Constantinople. May 16.—The council of ministers met again to-day and the sultan has ordered a distribution of troops at various points along the Salon iea railway. Official dispatches have been received from the commandant at Janina. who says that a division of the Greek forces approaching the town by a narrow gorge from the direction of Gremenitza, charged the heights of Griboro and Konoari. but suffered heavily, losing 200 killed, while on the other side the Greeks were driven back upon Paraskevi. The commandant states also that fighting has occurred at Kumusades. No further details are given exeept that all these battles lasted until evening, and that the imperial troops retained their position, with the probability that the Greeks will be reinforced and the fighting renewed to-morrow. No statement is made as to the Turkish losses. The Turkish commander at Luros telegraphs un^er yesterday's date as follows: “The outcome of a desperate battle lasting two days against a force of 15060 Greeks is that the latter have abandoned the position on the heights they had previously captured and have withdrawn to the olive groves of Gremenaitza.”

Only a Cm# of Oriental Barcalnlac. London, May 17.—The preposterous verms proposed by the porte must be regarded as the natural and usual method of oriental bargaining. They would not be serious did they not force a continuance of the fighting. With the failure of the Greek dash in Epirus there is no chance to make a further stand unless at Thermopylm, which, by virtue of its natural conditions. is an immensely strong position, from which the Turks would have the greatest difficulty in dislodging the Greeks. At Domokos the Greeks must be suffering severely from the heavy rains, as they have no tents. The capture or evacuation of the town is only a question of a few days. The Turks have been seen at the passes east and west of Domokos. and Gen. Smoleuski has warned the crown prince to expect an attack. The weakness of the Greek position is in the great extent of the line. The news of the retreat in Epirus serves to still further demoralize the troops in Thessaly. As to the terms on which peace will finally be declared the general belief in official circles is that they will be settled by an European conference. AN ILLEGAL CORPORATION. Jodc# Glbboat Tkw Chanclrriiea l8# American Tobacco Co. Chicago, May 1#. -Judge Gibbons has rendered a decision declaring the American Tobacco Co. an illegal corporation and prohibiting its agents from carrying on its business within the confines of this state. The decision sustains the information filed last December by Att’y-Gen. Moloney asking that the American Tobacco Co., be enjoined from selling paper cigarettes on the promise that it was an illegal truss monoDolv and consoiracy.
