The Turks, Incensed by Then Losses, Commit Horrible Atrocities Upon Their Victims, LONDON, AUG. murder, massacre, starvation and genera! destitution are words which describe the conditions that prevail in the Isle of Crete.

Wicked as are the ways of the Spanish in Cuba, the island of the Mediterranean is sorer straits, for both oppressor and oppressed are there the sufferers. Revolution with no semblance of system prevails, and privation from natural causes is augmented by the desuetude in things commercial and agricultural that ever accompanies the violent overthrow of rule. The Cretan Revolution is not too well understood by Americans. People in the United States think that Christian Cretans are daily bothered by the atrocious Turks who outnumber them largely. This is not true.

The Christian revolutionists have a well-organized army of 85,000 men while the Turkish forces do not count up more than half that number. The Christians butcher the Turks as often as they are butchered by the Turks, and the Sultan realizes that his reign in the island is not powerful. He has sont to Crete provisions and money to be divided evenly between Christians and Turks. But the Cretans want independence, and are determined to have it all hazards. They demand autonomy or annexation to the Kingdom of Greece.

The population of Crete is about and Christians. The cause of the present revolution was the cruelty of Abdullah Pasha, the Turkish Governor, who persecuted the Christians and killed them without the shadow of justification. In 1SS9 treaty was signed by the Cretans and the Sultan of Turkey after one year of revolution. This treaty has been violated time and again by the Porte. Finding that peaceable means were of no avail with the throne at Constantinople, the Cretans decided that in revolution alone lay aoy hope of only freedom but of even security in then- lives and homes; They determined to throw off the Turkish yoke and to place no more faith in any treaty with the Turks, unless it were guaranteed by the Powers of Europe.

GROVEE TO The Chinese Viceroy Will Be Received in New York Harbor, WASHINGTON, Aug. are being completed as fast as possible for the reception of Li Hung Chang. There have been several delays in fixing the program, owing to entire lack of information concerning his visit, the most important point now in doubt being as to or not the Chinese Viceroy HORRIBLE. Tragedy Caused by Careless Storing of the Explosive in a Summer Kitchen, is to be the guest, of the United States. It is settled so far as it can be that the President will receive he distinguished guest in New York Harbor, upon the Dolphin, or some other naval vessel, on August 31st.

This program may be changed, and later events may render it impracticable. The officials in Washington are not yet fully informed as to the wishes of the President in the matter. It is quite certain, however, that in case the President should be' aboard the Dolphin, the other vessels of the North Atlantic Squadron will be surrounding her, and the reception made as impressive as possible.

York AUTHORESS DEAD JUMPED THE UMPIRE, Who Opened a Valise and Handed Pistols Around, CONTRACTED PROM CATTLE, VIXOENNES, Aug. week Michael Caney inspected a herd of Texas ponies, from which he contracted anthax or malignant pos- tules, and ten hours later was at the point of death. The doctors burned out the afflicted part with carbolic acid as the only means of saving his life. An anthax microbe had been carried from one of the ponies to a slight abrasion on his cheek, whereby he was inoculated with the disease. Anthrax is a cattle can be contracted by other animals by inoculation only.

Ganey's recovery is doubtful. The disease ie very rare, only one other case ever known here, and that was 25 years ago, and the patient was dead in 12 hours. HELENA, Aug. game of base ball played at Poplar Grove yesterday between colored teams for a stake of $5 broke up in a pitched battle between the opposing nine, in which two boys were fatally shot and four others more or less wounded. Negro boys from the Polk and Lowdy plantations constituted the opposing nines.

"William Griffin, the umpire, and an adherent of the Polk side; held tbie stakes. In the third inning Griffin gave the Lowdy team-the hot end of a close decision, and the aggrieved team, led 1 by Israel Tate, made a rush for the umpire, and his son, who was acting as official scorer. The umpire was prepared forAthe attack, however. He opened a valise and passed pistols to members of the Polk team, and the battle began. Israel Tate was the only man on the Lowdy team that had a gun, but he did effective work.

He emptied his pistol into the Polk team, reloaded, and emptied It again. He is credited with having shot four men. land, this morning. The Pennsylvania Telephone company is building a new line in that vicinity and had stored the. explosive in the summer kitchen of the Eagle Hotel.

Early this morning Charles F. Cannon, an employe of the company and one of a gang just about to start to work, went to the summer kitchen to get out enough dynamite for the days use. A few moments later there was a terrible explosion and one side of the summer kitchen was blown out. A big hole in another side had blood and flesh on the ragged edges, and it is supposed that Cannon's body was sent through there. The unfortunate man was blown to atoms, his stomach having been found two blocks away.

Up to a late hour this morning neither his legs nor his head had been found. Frank Hammond of Harrisburg, who was standing just outside of the building, had every bono in his body broken and was instantly killed. George Grossman of Steel ton, a waiter boy, was also standing near the building, and was so badly injured that he died while being brought to this city. Among those most seriously injured are: Michael Wade of New Holland, who. may die; Frank Lewis of Lancaster, Frank Peaie of Scranton, David Hoffman of Reading, Joseph Hann of Allentown, Walter Fasig of New Holland and Phillip Lawrence, John Conlon, John White and Robert Shirk of Lancaster.

Two other outbuildings close to the summer kitchen were badly society is just now laughing over a story that concerns Senator Calvin S. Brice and the Irish singer, Maggie Cline. Maggie ie now at Newport, and has been sighing for new social pastures. Her chance came quite unexpectedly last week, when Senator Brice, who is meditating a flank movement on Newport. himself, called on Maggie and asked her if she would be willing to act as his collaborator for a consideration.

Miss Cline assured Senator Brice that if she could be of the least assistance in establishing him at Newport, in order to do him a service, she would gladly appear at three times her regular salary. Senator Brice thanked her tears in his eyes, and as soon as the contract had been signed and sealed Miss Cline is said to have remarked: "Now, look here, Senator, I don't want you to look on this as purely a business affair. I'm right in it with the swells down at Newport, and if you see any-big wigs in your audience that you'd like to meet, just you point them out to -me and I'll give you an introduction free of charge."
