GRECO-TURKISH SITUATION,
THE WAR HAS BROKEN OUT.
Turkey Severs Diplomatie Relations With Greece,
_Lonpow, April 18.—The Greco-Turkish situation is understood here to be sub- stantially as follows: War has not been officially dec'ared between Turkey and Greece ; but it has been declared officially to have “broken out.” The Turkisi cabinet has decided to sever deplomatic relations with Greece and has ordered Edhena Paeha, commander-in-chief of the Turkish forces to takethe offensive. It is considered in London that war between Turkey and Greece has actually begun, the Turkish declaration that war has “broken out” being merely forthe purpo-e of diplomatically snifting the onus of war upon the kingdom of Greece.
LATER. GREECE TAKES UP THE GAUNTLET. THE FIGHT IS OY.
Arnens, April 19.—A late sitting of the Legislative Assembly was beld yesterday.
M. Delyannis, Premier, announced that the Turkish Government had notified the Government of Greece of a rupture of diplomatic relations on the ground of the aggressive attitude of the Greek Govern- ment. In acvol, but most deliberate speech, he reviewed the recent events to ehow, on the contrary, that Turkey had been the aggressor, that her troops had attacked the Greeks and attempted to occupy neutral positions; and that her batteries at Privosa had sunk the Greek ship Macedonia. “Turkey,” said M. Delyannis, “has declared war against us. We accept it.”
This statement was received with pro- longed cheers from the galleries and floor of the chamber.
The Athens correspondent of the Lon- don Times eays: “* The failure of the first raid has deepened the general exaspera- tion and led to much angry recrimination. The Ethnike Hetairia blames the Govern- ment,and the latter blames the brother: heod. It is quite evident that the Hetairia expected to be supported by the regular troops onthe outbreak of a war, thus precipitated. Several of the newspapers indulge im similar bitter recriminations, and all authorities declare that there is a want of confidence between the Court and the Government. The Greek nation knows what it wants, but its rulers are wavering and undecided. The nation is asking how it was possible that Greeks were surrounded and compelled to retreat without being assisted by the Greek army. A pessimistic tone is becoming more and more noticeable; but the clamor for war does not diminish. As yet there are no reliable statemente made here aa to the exact losa sustained by the invaders; but Ilearn from an excellent source that it exceeded 200. The newspaper save that only half of the main body returned, the remainder being either killed or eeattered through the mountains.
A special despatch from Constantipople says that in the last encounter between the Greek irregulars and the Turkish régular troops, the latter lost 240 killed and wounded. The despatch says that Edhem Pasha, the Turkish Commander in Chief, bas telegraphed to the Turkish authorities at Constantinople that unless he is ordered to cross the frontier and take up a position on the plains of Thessaly, his present po- sition is untenable owing to the constant attacks of the Greek in- surgents who have entered the Tur- kish lines by stealth, and also in conse- quence of the excitement among the troops especially the Albanians. The Turkish ministers, it is further announced, have in- formed the Sultan that war shonld be declared against Greece. The Sultan, who objects to war, has not yet replied to this recommendation of his ministers.
It is said at Vienna, on reliable authority that the Emperor Nicholas has deélared that nothing now remains but to abandon Turkey and Greece to their fate and to leave them to measure strength. His Majesty is reported to have added emphat- ically that if Turkey now declared war it would be exelusively due to the provocation offered by Greece. Greece would be regarded in Austrian official circles as the actual assailant.

Military life im Germany furnishes an abundance of tragedies. But a record was established on March 19 last, when three soldiers committed suicide in the same barracks, and for the same reason, name- ly, ill-treatment by their officera. The soldiers belonged to the 3rd Infantry Re- giment, quartered at the Bonn. An inquiry bas been ordered, but it is doubtful if it will ever come to any- thing.
Liberal Mr. Lister in Parliament ob- jected to Mr. Moore’s proposition to re- duce the duty on coal oil to three cents a gallon.

A powerful syndicate which was form~ ed in Quebec a year agoto conduct the maple sugar business, by buying it up every year, has now in its hands over 500,000 pounds of sugar from last seasor. This year the sugar crop promises to be unusually large in all sections of the Pro- vince, and several farmers in Beauce have already made over 6,000 pound apiece. On the other hand.the American tariff is caleu- lated to close the market in the United States to Canadian sugar, so that the syn- dicate, which comprises among ite mem- bers several Quebec merchants, 1s likely to lose heavily on its operations.
