THE GKfljSK ARMY CRUMBLING I Undlgnlfledjlutreat of King George's Sol diers Before the Advanoine Turkish Forces i A Greek Officer Admits Futility of Continu ing the War. London, Jlay J. Dispatches from the seat of wftf In Greece give no Indication of a cassation of hostilities, though there Is itttl much talk of Intervention by the gfWat powers. A Constantino ple dispatch says that war prepara tions go on with unabated vigor. Two commissions composed of olllclals of the ministries of the public works and of war ha,ve been formed for the pur pose of inspecting railways and facili tating tltB dispatch of troops to the frontier. It i has lieen decided by Turkey to oxtlngulsh the torches In all the light houses on the Gulf of Smyrna ns far as Kafftuurun during the continuance of the war. It Is officially announced that the Greeks resident in Turkev may become naturalized as an alterna tive to leaving the country. This will he compuiory for nil Greeks officially pmpioyea an Turkey. After remaining Inactive for two days the jfai-eek troops on Friday re Invaded EpiruB. The Sixth reglmrnt advanced and occupied Phlllpptada for the third time without fighting. The Turks art still at Pnntepigadta and Imaret has been fortified, the military bridge over the river Arta having been destroyed. The streets of Arta pre sent a strange scene, with the contin uous exodus of citizens and the steady incoming of the peasantry, who camp out in the streets around fires, wltli thousands of sheep and cattle. The Times' correspondent at Patras, giving further details of the fighting af Penteplgada, notes the neglect of tne officers to provide for tlie timely. u, iciuiurreiiieniB, a mutter so difficult In that wild section of the country, and proceeds: "When the Turks opened the attack I realized that their fierce onset might expel the mere handful of Greeks, but I did not realize that this one blow would throw the entire Oreek army In Eirus Into a hopeless panic and cause the loss of all the positions gained since the opening of the cam paign. "Six thousand Turks scaled the mountain, covered as it Is with brush gild rppk.B, and in the face of firing which was rapid and pqntinuous. They lost heavily, in spite of the fact that two Greek guns were Inexplicably re moved, from action shortly after the fusillade began. The Kvzones fought bravely, but 'were compelled to retire. "Tho rest of the Greek position! have been abandoned. There has been ap parently no Btand anywhere, nnd -th'e Whole arihy is crumbling without fir ing n shot. We entered Kumuzades, which 3,000 men with six guns had de serted, accompanied by the terrified villagers carrying their' property, and then we descended the rough pass, where for hours we met no one. The retreating and panic stricken troops were far ahead. "About midnight we and our mourn ful procession of villagers overtook the routed army on the road, crowded and In utter confusion, packed with a mass pf humanity tumbling on through the darkness, without hurry and silently. mr u wns a sirnnge panic that had seized the men, a sullen, unexolted, stubborn determination not to tight, but to press on toward Arta In a slug gish, Irreslstable wave. The officers, like their regiments, walked with gloomy and shamefaced expression, quite unable to get their men In hand. At Knnopoulo Colonel Botzarl and his staff vainly tried to check the rout and to make a stand." Captain Rnbbolc, of King George'a personal staff, wired hero from Athens Saturday that the right wing of the Greek rmy had repulsed the Turks, but that the left wing had retreated behind tho old frontier line to avoid, being Pjrcumvented. Captain Habbok adds; "The Greek army In Bplrus,' after defeat at Pentepegadla, has re tired to Arta. All hope of continuing the war Is now virtually abandoned. Tho fleet has returned to Volo for tho protection of the Inhabitants." The Times publishes a dispatch from Larissa which says: The Christians who are returning here all say that during the hattle at Milouna Crown Prince ""Constantln was at Karadere, at the foot of the pass. The Greek army is dscrlbed as behaving on that occasion like a disorderly mob. All discipline was flung to the winds, and the soldiers fired even on their own Ptlcsrs, so terrific was the pajilp. f Is Impossible to believe that the army at Pliamalos can withstand the Turks in a pitched battle. That the war is now practically . over is plainly ap parent. A dispatch from Lamia says: "Since Friday the whole body of Greek troops near I'harsaloe and Domokos has been drawn up In order of battle, but at this hour there has been no fighting. The inhabitants of Pharsalos have aban doned the town in fear of a Turkish attaek. and an exodus has begun from Dorookos in the direction of Lamia, the refugee pitohlng their tents in the open country. Ismail Pasha, governor of the Island of Crete, has protested against the de cision of tlie admirals allowing food to be supplied to Inhabitants 4n the In terior. Ha demands cessation of the blockade or its complete re-establlsh-ment. The Athens correspondent of The Dally Mall telegraphs: Both the fleets remain Idle. The populace continues Indignant at the Ailing of the railway carriages with Crown Prince- Con stanttn's baggage In the flight from Larissa, despite the protests of the rail way officials. The people say that they have been cheated and betrayed. They are also angry at the neglect of the government to call out the exempted reserves, who are for the most part relatives of ministers, deputies and aristocrats. A band of 1,000 Irregulars Is about to start for the front, their standard bearer, a 19-year-old girl named Helen Constantlnldls, dressed in, the same uniform as tne men. It is seml-officlally stated that Lord Salisbury's proposal to the powers for i conference at Paris to discuss mean tires with a view of ending- the war between Turkey and Greece has al ready been under consideration for sev eral days at the various foreign of fices, s.nd may now be considered defi nitely abandoned. The Berlin correspondent of The Dally Mall learnt that the powers will not consent to the levying of Indem nity upon Greece, and that both Aus tria and Germany are trying to Induce the porte to modify Its demands.

Tlie May term of the Criminal Court was to liave opeued here to-day, but as Judge Bechtel was alone on the bench and as none of the Judges from other places who are to substitute this week for Judges Pershing and Weidman arrived ln time no calendar cases were called up. Shenandoah was well represented at court to-day. The train that arrived here from that place at 0:10 this morning had four ex tra cars, and all were comfortably filled. Judge Bechtel confined his labors this morniug to handing down decisions, tho most important one being that deciding the fato of the Borough Justices of Shenandoah and Mabanoy City. The decision was a verbal one and the court stated that the answer made to the petition filed by A. W.

The flames spread rapidly from the Jen kins building, and soon had consumed several large buildings in the vicinity. The total loss will be at least $2,000,000. The origin ot the fire ln the Jenkins building is not known, but it is sup posed to have been smouldering tot houraln a dust heap at the foot of the elevator shaft. The watchman tried to get the flames under control, but gave up tlx; attempt and sent ln an alarm. A general alarm followed, and soon all the engine in the city were on hand. It was seen at once that the city fire department was not sufficient, and that from Allegheny City was call ed on and responded quickly, sending almost their entire force. It was not until 2 o'olock that the fire was gotten under control. Three large blocks, extending from Liberty to Perm avenue, and from Fifth street to Sixth street, have been reduced to smouldering ruins.
