Lospox, May 17.—The Times -corres- pondent at Kephalosie, urder date of Fri-

day, reports an interview with Generay Smolenski. He said: “I intend ta await the Turkish attack and not to retire to

Thermopolvae unless absolutely cympelle t io do so.” General Smolenski has 10,000) men, bis line extending from Bak!ari to| the port of Alinyro.

Toroxtro, May pyri ae the fact that citizens of Toronto voted iu favor of ruoning street cars on Suaday at yesterday’s election, the cars did not ruo today, and there is a question ae te whether they will run atall. The bye lew under which yesterday’s vote was taken has yet to be ratified by the city council, and this is net likely ty be done until a Jegal point raised by the clerical party has been settled,

Larissa, May 17.—Edhbem Pasia’s plans for the. capture of Dumokos are being rapidly perfected. Reiaforcements are arriving and allthe Greek positions are carefully watched. The bad condition of the roads and the heavy rains delay the operations for which the Turkish officers are anxiously waiting, but a general ad- A number of Greek deserters who have been captured, say that 25,000 Greeks are behind the fortifi- cations and entrenchments at Domokos, but that the whole organization is rotten and the medical and transport seryices have completely collapsed. They say that for 36 hours the only ration was a half loaf, and that the forces are becoming demoralized by the wholesale.

Lonponx, May 17.—The Times cerres- pondent at Athens eays: To-day (Sunday) M. Ralli, the premier, visited the various legations and obtained assurances that the powers would undertake to preveat any offensive action on the part of the Turks provided the Greek forces maintain strictly defensive attitude. On this understanding he immediately wired the commanders of three Greek divisions at Domokos, Sourp', and Arta instructing them to abstain from all hosti'e action unless attacked by the enemy.

The only Greek force now on Turkish territory is the band of Epiroti volunteers led by Botzaris, which landed at Prevesa and advanced slong the banks of Louros. This force will now proceed westward along the coast, where it will be taken off by the Greek fleet.

“The losses at Griboro were the heavi- est since the beginning of the war. Seven officers were killed. Requiems were sung today in all the churches, aud the opposi- tion papers accuse the government of openly sanctioning needless bloodshed.

“T jearn that the advance was due to Col. Manos, who desired to regain the Greek army’s lost prestig?. The gevern- ment considered his plaa a very hazardous ove, but finally consented. The fi-rceness of the fightiug at Griloro, requiring rein- forcemente, he was compelled to abandon the original plan, and probably all have now retired to Arte. The girl standard bearer of the Botzaris volunteers was io the thick of the h«ud to hand conflict.”
