FIGHTING IN MACEDONIA. Greek Irregulars and Turkish Forces Engage?Many Killed and Wounded. Larissn. Headquarters of the Greek Army in Thessaly, April 1(>.?Severe fighting has occured in Macedonia between the Greek irregulars and t lie Turkish forces. The column of irregulars sent to the right from Cigavibea, after having invested and captured Sitovon, continued its advance towards K?'\ tudes, Hlisia and Koor duz, wite orders to hold Kourduz at all costs, as it commands the riirht annroach to Grevena. the objective point. This column, commanded by Chiefs Zermos and Luzzo, attacked Kritndes Tuesday. The place was defended by two companies of Turks. After a severe fight, during which eighty Turks were killed and twenty-five were taken pris- ^ oners, tin- position was captured by the Greeks, who also obtained ' possession of 150 r i ties and a< quantity of cartridges. The insurgents, however, havej suffered a severe check in another directions. A strong force of Turkish troops, from Mucevon, with a number of mountain guns, advanced on Krania, which had previously been captured by the ureeivs, and aitacKea tlio lour hundred irregulars of Greece who occupied au entrenched position. It is reported that, the fighting was ferocious on both sides. The insurgents eventually were compelled to retreat. Nnrth to the mountains. Some of them, how-j ever, succeeded in breaking j through the Turkish lines ntid escaped to Baltino, the town just ^ across the frontier in Macedonia, first captured by the Greek irregulars and used by them as a depot for provisions and ammuni-j tion. The accounts given by the refugees of the Turkish losses are believed to he exaggerated. They say that 265 Turks were killed while irregulars only had eight men killed, seventeen wounded. The leader of the (lre^.1;^ nTior. ating in that section, Chief Milenas, was among the wouiined,an<i returned later into Greek teriitory with a number of the rofu-j gees. One of the latter says that a portion of the Turkish force was composed of irregulars,whose dress resembles that of the Creek insu rgents. This it appears. enabled the Turkish force to execute a Hank movement, unheeded by the leaders of the Greeks. The refugees " i referred to blames the Greek leaders for badly handling their Mrs. A.

The threat of the Carnegie Ar mour Plate Trust to shut down its works unless the Government niKin l imit; u? iis icrins promises I to be productive of pood iu seval ways. The trust refuses to j make armour plate at the maximum price lixedM>y Congress, $300 a ton, at which a large profit can he earned. Its demand tor armouring the Illinois, Alabama and Wisconsin, now under con struct ion, if granted, would put about $2,000,000 more into trust'*: pocket than the Congressional maximum would yield. The Car ! negie combine has, it is atlirmed, supplied foreign governments with armour at $150 a ton. It has., drawn immense sums from the United States Treasury for its products, including plates honeycombed with blowholes, the location of which is known to the European powers with whose navies it is always possible we may have lighting to do. The trust is standing oil", and by its threat of closing the mills in effect asks the Government, What are you going to do about it '! The answer of Secretary of the Navy Long is the recommendation to Congress that it raise the max iinum to $400 a ton. lie argues that the cosi of keeping the tin finished war ships in the stocks would amount to more than the cost, of surrendering to the trust. Senator Chandler, of New Hampshire, former Secretary of Navy, displays a different, spirit. It. is \\T.. - .1 iiiiiivii mm 11 mil ?? asillllgiou I lllll he will introduce a hill providing that the Government shall immediately take possession ot the Carnegie and Hethlehem steel plants, run them until enough! armour lor the three incomplete' battle ships is supplied, and then | turn the works back to their rapacious owners, leaving the trust to go into the Court of (Maims for its damages. It is mortifying that the Government of the I'nited Statesi should be made wholly dependent upon a manufacturing monopoly j for armour for its war ships?a. monopoly which has derived from that (iovernment the wealth | which gives it the courage to he! insolent. It would serve the trust right, of course, were Sena I tor ('handler's I.ill to become* a law; it would serve the trust right were its works to be confiscated without compensation. Were war threatening and the I unfinished ships needed for na tional defence, and the coinp tnies maintained their present attitude,; it would serve the managers of the trust right should they be: dealt with as t raitors. Hut business is business after) all. The (ioverntnenl having created a monopoly, it is not *ur prising that the monopoly should act alter its kind. Were there extreme need tor the immediate armoring ot the Illinois, Alabama and Wisconsin, all other consid orations would give wav to na ii ' ?d tional need, and the seizure of' the works he politic as well as' just. I (owever, desirable as it is to strengthen our navy without needless delay, there is no urgent necessity for the hold course proposed by Senator < 'handler. The lesson of the situation is that the (iovernrnent should cease as soon as practicable to he dependant upon private persons j for armor. The < Iovernrnent should build and armor all its own ships. It is rich enough to do it, and there is no good reason whv it should not.

The trusts which control the necessaries and coin torts of life continually and on system hold up the people as the Carnegie Trust is now holding up the Covernment. The experience will do the Government no harm, and it is gratifying to reflect that in the end it will do the trusts no good. Every exposure of their methods hastens the day of their suppression.?X.
