The tftsts bare changed In Qreacf. ami Mr. Delyannla, or his fortune, has changed with them. He was Prime Minister m a military crisis oneo before; exactly eleven year?; ago. Annies w.-re massed .?n the Thessalien frontier, sklnalshlng hegaa and ?rat Beamed Imminent. Then tiie great Powers Interfered and blockaded the Greek roast, Tkerettpcn Mr. Delynnnli vol? untarily. Indeed eagerly, realgced his place). Bnl tin- King refused to accept his resignation, tall bag him bluntly thai as he had ?>?: the nation into a scrape ho must stay In olliie and Ret it out again the liest way he could. At the pres? ent time, whether or not through BBJ fault of Mr. Delyannls, Oreeca ?? in a still worse scrape. But Mr. Dejyunnli has not been anxious ner even willing to resign, oven when asked to do so. and the King has not warned him to stay in oiiiee and try t,. get Greece out <>f ner acrape. Instead of the King commanding Hi?' Prime Min? ister to remain in office, he has ordered him to get out. it is a complete reversal of the criais of. 189a Thus (Irtvp swaps horses while crossing a partlcnlarly turbulent stream, it is scarcely to !>e hoped that much good will eome of it. so far as the war 1? eoncerned. Mr. Ralll cannot, any more than his preihvessor, make up for the enor? mous disproi>ortIon between the two countries in point of aombers and res nines. Oddfl of ten or twenty to one against her make the eause of Greece praetleally bopelesa Mr. Ralll may re? organize the army and greatly improve it. T?nt lie cannot hope to do so In time to eheek the fur? ther advance of the Turks. Proper organization and leadership might in the beginning have held the frontier against the Turkish Army, while tho Greek Navy ravaged tin- Turkish const at will. But it is too late now. The frontier has been abandoned. An enormous Turkish army has entered (ireece. And the Greek Navy has lost It? opportunity of raking Sal?nica. In such circumstances even the highest military genius would be of small avail. The war is lost to Greeee. no matter who may be Prime Minister. What Mr. Ralll and his coDeagues can do. however, is to save the dynasty. It is entirely probable that that is the chief purpose for which the King has railed them. The Delyann's Min? istry, whether it deserved to be or not. was hopelessly discredited before the people. So In? deed, though to a less extent, were ihe King and Crown Princ?. If the King siood by the Min? istry, they might both go down together before a popular uprising. Tor that tl.e King had no stomneh. Therefore he decided to save himself by sacrificing his Minister. He dismissed Mr. iFlyannis. That partly appeased t ho public Avrath. since It indicated that the King was not standing by the Ministry nor maintaining the policy which had brough: disaster upon the na? tion. Ho then lntmsted the formation of a new Ministry and the direction of the Government to Mr. Rfllll. who more than any other man en Joys the confidence of the people, nnd who is looked to by them as the only possible savior of Greece. That ought to restore the King to the full favor of the people, ind Insure the stability of his throne. THE CLEVELAND BOGIE. The effect of Mr. Cleveland's speech at the Reform Club dinner last Saturday night upon the lenders of the various factions of the disor? ganized Democratic party must bo something of a surprise to that gentleman himself. There !s no reason to believe that he liad any intention in that rather turg'.-l and Involved oratorical ef? fort of springing himself once innre upon the country. It was in his ordinary hoary and lum? bering style, and altogether like him in fa.'t, as suitably described by a contemporary, a plagi? arism of himself. It was carefully prepared; to lie sure, as all his set speeches are. of necessity. Rut the fact that he had not taken the trouble to eommit it to memory, as he has been in the habit of doine heretofore when he was supposed to have designs on the American people, would indiente that he had no ulterior sensational pur? pose. Reing a guest of tue club, and conse? quently the beneficiary of a twelve-dollar din? ner without Its costing him a cent, he naturally de-h'od to give the club Its money's worth In appropriate remarks on "Present Problems," the topic assigned him. And as the current rato at which after-dinner orators are expected to ??omnnite for their entertainment is a twenty? five-dollar speech for a three-dollar dinner, he met the requirement with what he doubtless considered wag a hundred dollars' worth of re? marks for a nvelve-dollar dinner. He Is not the man to cut rates on postprandial oratory. A man of less strict sense of justice might have cut the speech down at least BO per cent with? out impairing its force or destroying the sense, but Mr. Cleveland Ik the sort of man that would rather overpay his entertainers with a redun? dancy of remarks than have one of them go away with an imsatislled lor.clng. That being his feeling on the subject, with the consciousness that It wns a perfunctory per? formance in payment for a dinner, with no de? sire on his part to make a sensation or hurl himself for the fourth time Into the face and eyes of the American people, it must have aston? ished him somewhat when he awoke to tlnd that his speech wai taken by eminent Democratic statesmen as a bid for the Presidency in 1900, Mr. William Jonnincs Bryan, at present the recognised head of the party in eagsMouence of his having been its last Presidential candidate, thought he ?aw It at a glance, and hastened to say that it was. In the circumstances, highly In? decorous and improper for Mr. Cleveland to appear in public at this time. A vague sort of suspicion exists in the public mind that Mr. Bryan not onlv considers himself the logical candidate of his party for 1900, but that he be? ll 'ves no other Democrat lias any right to put himself In the way of it. At any rate he was in print as toon as h-* could get there after the publication of Mr. < b-velanii's speech with a very earnest warning to the Democracy to beware of that statesman's machinations. Simultane? ously Colonel Henry Wattereon, of Kentucky, un opironent of Mr. Bryan, plunged into print to say thai ill?' speech was undoubtedly a bid for the nomination in 1000, and that it Ottghi to be frowned down by the faction to which he and Mr. Cleveland both belong, became Mr. Cleve? land's ambition is Insatiate and be baa already wrecked the Democratic party. Colonel Wetter son is just as much in earnest as Mr. Bryan, and both are worked up about it to an unusual de? gree, MegntlBM tiie small contingent of Mugwump Democracy represented by the Reform ("Ink whose attention of Mr. Cleveland is Irrepree slble and unceasing, regard these deuxMMtra? tions ?if indignation ami alarm with mingled amusement and contempt. They my that Mr. Cleveland has ne ambition Cor a third term, but that what his enemies fear is that -he honest masses, wlio have already forced ...s nomina? tion three limes apon the reluctant poiltlcianfl and parry leaders, ami repeal their demand and, eren against his own wishes, compel his nom? m?t ton in RM??. And there really is something amusing in the excitement which the ex?Presl dent's \<vy ordinary and commonplace remarks have Bceaaionetl among Democratic politicians. It seems rather bard if this eniineni private citizen cannot read a little speech to his ml mirers in paymenl ior a dinner without the poli? ticians ,,f ?11 factions rising up and charging him with further mischievous designs In pr no tlon of his own selfish ambition sgalnst the party he has slready wrecked. And yet It Is not I si? Strange, after all. that his publie appearance ? or e-cu the mention of his name should put them 1 in a fright. Nor be has been riding ore* them ; Nsjignalsod, for fifteen rests. Be began it si Grower**, end they said Iten With Si solute Sa> , rarpnce that that was the end of him. Bol II wasn't, Re vas nominated for President in 188*1 in spit,, af them, and when elected con? ! tinned with mngttbscent egotism to disregard i and ride over them. They tried to prevent his ? nomination In iSsH and failed. They thought j they were certainly ri?l of bim when be was <le | feeteo thai year. But he rose op to them ee I ready in ISHi' and th*^/ had to nominate him i again. Meaning to get finally rid of him then. I they totaled him down with a Greenbacker for Vlce-Pr.?sident and an extreme Free-Trade plat? ! form, a ad looked for nothing but hi< defeat. His luck held out. and to their disappointment ! he wns elected. Finally, baring shipwrecked ! his party, it might be supposed that he was no i longer to be feared. Rut he ?s still their bogle. They fake fright at mem ion <-f his nrime, and go into a panic if he make-; a lmndred-dollar speech for .a twelve dollar dinner. The enthusiasm exdted ?n Dem? ocratic circles by a mention of the name of An? drew Jackson la something wonderful and awe inspiring: but compared with the terror created In the same circles by mention of the name of Cnnver ('lev.'and it isn't a marker. And ii bca-'s all how the Mugwumps enjoy the sensa? tion It makes. pros pi: eis or PEACE. AVar talk glws way to talk of peace, whether through d.-ect dealings between Greece and ! Turkey or through Intervention of ihe great Powers. Ta'k of intervention, too. Is becoming practical and hopeful. T.ess is heard about eo I erring Greece and exacting pledges from her ss ! prerequisite to saving ber from Ottoman spolia I tlon. The better sentiment of Europe Is assert? I ng itself. It is seen tint. Greece i- more sinned against than sinning?elnned against not only by Turkey, but by the great Powers themselves. Turkey has refused to fulfil her obligations to Greece uuder the Berlin Treaty of 1878, and the great powers bare supported lu r in thai repudia? tion of their own convention, she has failed to execute the protnlsed referma in her government of the Greeks in Crete, ami tho great Powers have condoned that failure and even sustained her in it by fordo of arms. Surely it is time now for the great PoHVerS to do. if tardily and in liait. the justice they should have done promptly and in full. Greece must suffer some of the penal? ties of the vanquished, no ?loubt. Rut the guilt of the war does n u rest upon her. and she Is therefore entitled to the most considerate and generous treatme?lt. No definite terms of pearo are yet flfrrccd upon. Rut such as are b?>ing discussed are, on the whole, reasonable. What Little Turkish talk there i is about cession of G".-ek territory to Turkey is, of course, not to be taken seriously. The great Powers long ago declared tl at the apgressor In the war would not bo permitted to gain any such advantage, and Turkey is the aggressor. The sayings of the great Powers are not always: fulfilled, but that one certainly will be. Much more to the point Is the reported willingness of the Porte to negotiate for peace on the basis of restoring the status quo ante helium In Thes saly and Eplrus, and of gtanting autonomy for Crete. From Paris, too, comes a hint that tho great Powers will persnade Turkey to withdraw from Theasaly and Greece to withdraw from Crete simultaneously. Such an arrancement Would fall far short of Greek hopes and ambi? tions, but it would be probably the best pos? sible under present circumstances, nnd it would ? place upon the gr.-at Powers more emphatically than ?-ver before the full responsibility for tho government of Crete. By no means the least significant feature of the situation is th" attitude of Prance. She is said to have warned Turkey to go no further In Greece, lest France be compelled to intervene In behalf of the latter. If true, that is of the highest importance. It Indicates beyond doubt one of two things. Either France assumes this attitude with tiie approval of Russia and the other Powers, thus showing that the Concerr has at last decided to stand for European civilisa? tion against Asian barbarism, or she does it on bar own necoum. thus showing that she la no longer hound by the Concert, but Is froe to obey her own generous rnsttncts. Whichever be the ' ease, It is cause for sincere rejolring, nnd it gives promise of a speedy re establishment of peace on a basis of at least comparative justice. There Is no high figure In history that llkM a pageant less than ("?rant, or has Inspired so great a one. .-?*,?i? The eaeernesa With which the great steam? ship lines try to secure new piers on Manhattan Island seems to ??uggest that the prophets of evil who d-'-ciare that New-York's commercial su pr?macy Is waning ard will soon disappear may be wide',.- astray in their views and predictions. The rentals of all the new piers built by tho city and of those which are likely to be built rls* Into lofty figures, but the demand Is sure to exceed the supply for many years to come. There was a certain fishing-smack flavor In the figure of speech by which ex-Sheriff "Jim mie" O'Brien defined the policy Tammany must follow in th>- next campaign. "Jlmmle" has de? cided that the Democracy of Greater New-York must make th? municipal campaign on National issues, and that Tammany, accordingly, must come oui squarely for the free coinage of silver. "She must either fish or cut bal:." says "Jim mie." The fisherman's f< rmula?intended to ex? press th-- idea of dlvtadoa of labor with no loaf? ing?Is "must either fish, cut bait or ko ashore." The omlssti n of the last choice Indicates a pur? pose of throwing Tammany overboard without giving h.r a chance to go ashore, if she doesn't either fish or cut bait. It sounds quite authori? tative -Indeed, dictatorial. Hut it is not un? likely that presently Mr. Klohard ?"roker will ap? pear on the quarter deck with the inquiry. "When did tiiis pirate come aboard?" and "What's he doing with my trumpet?" and the next O'Brien movement will ba overboard. There is a disagreement of doctors In the mat? ter of th.* abrogation of our reciprocity treaty with Hawaii. All of which misrht b.- recondli .1 by the annexation which It so ardently desires. If the Greeks ?rere to assassinate their King they would forfeit the sympathy . f h11 the na? ttons which n.iw sympathize with them, and would n..t regain it for a century. Th<* act <.f the mob would be construed as the ,-,. t of the nation, and go far to Justify th.- conviction that It was .>nly tit for the yoke and the goad which, with one driver and another, It has almost al? ara] a worn.
