LONDON, April 16.-The following is
the text Of the Greek note in reply to the
proposition of the powers:
"In view Of the invitation of the pow
ers to accept new line of frontier, and
in view of the present difficulties and
future dangers, Greece has asked her.
self whether her acceptance will lead to
speedy and peaceful solution of the ques-
tion. AS the past leads us to doubt this,
the government needs to know whether
the snew decisions will be executed i'm
mediately, or at least within brief in
terval, to be determined on beforehand,
and to be enlightened as to the guaran-
tees the powers will give on that point.
Greece is desirous for peace and
grateful toward Europe for her
efforts to bring about peace
full solution She will, moreover,
lose no more time in entering into pos
session of the ceded territories, but de-
cided as she is to proceed in the path of
peace, she cannot abandon in their pres
sent condition her children left outside
the new frontier. and she appeals on the
subject to the sense of justice of the
powers"
PARIS, April 16.-The powers are dis
pleased with the tone of the Greek reply
to their note, and while accepting it's sub
stance have asked explanations regard
ing it's form. The premier said that in
view Of the excited state of the public
mind and the dangers the throne might
incur, he could not modify the form, and
that he would simply abide by the the
note as sent until the chamber of deputies
voted on the question. The powers not
withstanding this have decided to con-
slider the Greek acceptance as an accom-
plished fact, and have begun negotiations
at Constantinople for the transfer of the
ceded territory.
