Alix Secured Concessions,

BERLIN, Oct. 1.-THE Kreuz Zeitung
says Princess Alix of Hesse has OBJ
tanned concessions from the Russian
holy synod, such as no princess in a
like position ever before secured in en-
bracing the orthodox faith. The prin-
cess, according to the newspaper men,
toned, will not declare her former re-
ligion to be accursed, nor will she state
that her conversion is due to the con-
viction that the truth lies not with her
own but with the Russian church. It
is added that the holy synod will be
satisfied that the princess joins the
Greek church in order to be of the same
religion as her future husband.
