The ReAignat1On of the Greek War
Minister.
LONDON, April 25.-The resignation of N.
Mavro- -Michaelis, Greek minister of war Is con-
strued generally in precisely opposite sense
from the view taken by the Athens correspond
with his colleagues concerning the answer to be
returned to the last note Of the powers, his
views being regarded as too pacific.
The Times correspondent at Athens says:
M. MaVrom1chaelis charged his colleagues with
making different answer to the powers from
that agreed upon in the council which he
declared contained demands for conces sions not
included In the proposal OF the Powers or In the
Gretk reply. These dissensions are doubtless
In consequence of the pressure OF hostile public
opinion, especially In the army. Internal
affairs are menaced with complications; but
these win not interfere with the peaceful solu-
tion Of the frontier question.
The Athens correspondent OF the Daily Ne,os
says: The irritation against the government.
though kept down, Is unmi5takable. The min-
Eter OF war was so deeply impressed by the In
digDation Of the army that he insisted that the
second reply should demand the cesslon of
Dr0DOSffi0n
reply, therefore, will noftake different ground
frcm the first, although the Immediate occupa-
tlon OF Thessaly and some provision for Epirus
VIII be more urgently requested. Should the
Albanian movement devel0pe into regular war
fare Greece must intervene to prevent Epirus
from drifting into the Albanian lea .ue. IN
that case war would be inevitable, whether the
proposals OF the powers are accepted or not.

ent of the Man ster Guardian says: Ettuer

The main point in the Greek note wafch W. IL
be presented this week will be its calling the
attention Of the powers to the fact that they
had not replied to the reservation contained In
the Greek note Of the 7th inst.
The Vienna correspondent of the Times SAYS:
The Greek answer Will return to the question
OF the rate OF the Greeks not included in the
the powers passed over In silence
The agitation of this question by
the Greeks may produce reaction
In Turkey and engender an idea
OF asking some sort OF guarantee. The present
settlement Is considered nnal. The powers who
before passed over the question In silence, to
driven to make an outspoken answer. On the
other hand popular excitement In Athens may
cause the Greek cabinet to feel that 1t must
show that 1t has done all In It's power.
