Turkey and Greece. Negotiations oontinue between the Greek and Turkish Governments regard* ing the proposed transfer of territory in Thessaly and Blpirus to Greece. The Forte now attaches certain conditions to the surrender, and their discussion delays the conclusion of the formal convention between the two Governments.

EpMK, Mayl3.

There is a division of tlje-Ministry as to the action which should be taken by Italy in view of the French position in Tunis.

Several meetings of the Cabinet have been held, but no understanding could be arrived at, and the Liberal members of the Ministry have, in consequence, tendered their resignations to the Kiog.

Athens, May 14.

Notwithstanding the . understanding arrived at last month between Turkey and Greece on the frontier question the Porte continues to despatch bodies of Turkish troops to the districts in Thessaly which it was arranged should form part of the extended Greek frontier. This action on the part of Turkey causes much uneasiness throughout Greece, and the sincerity of the Porte's undertaking is generally mistrusted.

Pabis, May 13.

Telegrams have been received from Tunis announcing that a settlement of the Franco-Tunisian difficulty has been brought about. On the arrival of the French troops outside the city of Tunis they despatched envoys to negotiate with the French commander. The latter demanded, as an ultimatum, that the Bey should give substantial guarantees that perfect order would be maintained ou the frontier, and that he should' agree to receive French residents at the capital. These conditions were ultimately accepted and were embodied in a treaty of peace, wbieh has since been signed between the French commander and the envoys of the Bey. In consequence of the settlement arrived' at the French tcoops will not enter the city.
