M Delyannis, keenly alive to the ne
cessity of Immediate action, had an au-
dienoe with the king and after the in
terNiew announced that the staff of the
crown prince would be recalled and
that eN-Minister Rail-, with three of his
nominees, General Smolentz, General
Mavromichali and Colonel Dimopoulo,
would be appointed to replace them. NJ.
ltalli, in a published interview, SAYS:
The m Constantine arrived at
the seat of war the sole thought of the
responsible commanders was not to at
a or Withstand the Turks, but to eff
feet a safe retreat If necessary. All or
ders emanated from the palace. Those
issued by any one else We're ignored.
When dispatches We're sent to General
Mavromichali he was not where he was
supposed to be. having been moved on
by superior orders"
Nj. Rail- attended the council at the
palace.
The Daily Te!egraph's Athens corre-
spondent says today:
"All Of NJ. Ralli's conditions have
been accepted. The king gives carte
blanche to his ministers. AS the public
begins to learn the truth g against
the palace party increases, and a feel
ing of hostility against NJ. Delyannis
is steadily growing. Late Monday
crowds We're parading menacingiy in
M vicinity Of the palace.
1T Is reported on coed authority that
arrangements are being made to ena-
Bile the royal family to leave the coun-
try hastily in case of necessity. Peo-
pie had generally credited the ;umors
that the crown prince would be recalled
and that the government was willing
to consider peace overtures. 1t is i'm
possible to say what will happen when
1t is known that the war is to be con-
tinued and the crow prince retained in
Command"
Much Discomfort.

here may be a change in the royal fam
lily at Athens. Discomfort is growing
and the king will be the scapegoat. The
situation in the country and in Athens
particularly is growing more and more
serious. The news and truth about the
Larissa campaign is just becoming
known, and is the cause in all of a deep
feeling of Indignation and sorrow. The
people go to extremes and declare the
war has come and was gotten up by the
government and king. The word treason
Is openly used. This is not the opinion
If the irresponsible, but of the better
glass; at one, in this instance, with the
mass of the people. All the facts about
defeat show that the fault lies with the
staff lacking knowledge of the business
