le-Disorders Due to Proposed
Gospel Translation.

Athens, Greece-A remarkable poli-
tico-religious agitation has kept this
city for days past in 4 state of excite
ment which has resulted in serious
rioting and loss of life. The ostensible
cause OF the trouble is the opposition
OF the university students and others
TO the proposal to translate the Gospels
into modern Greek and authorize such
new version for general use. There
is, however, considerable political
element in the movement. involving
popular hostility TO Slav influences.
In the view of those who oppose the
translation Russia is working through
Queen Olga AGAINST Greek national
ideas and the members of the royal
family, MS well as the Government,
are objects OF their Indignation. The
governmental newspapers Akropolis
and ASty. which support the transla-
tion proposal. also share in this hostil-
ity. !
The demonstrations have been grow
ing in violence daily, and in the course
of rioting about twenty cavalrymen
and few civilians were wounded.
The following day the students organ
lied meeting ut the ruins of the Tenn

attended. The Government had sup
plemented the police with a large
force of troops. Disturbances soon
began and revolvers were freely used.
In the melee seven persons were killed
and thirty wounded and many persons
suffered minor injuries.
Some of the rioters who recognized
Premier Theotokis in the street tried
TO assassinate him. Several revolver
shots were fired at NJ. Theotokis, but
he escaped unharmed. The prefect
OF Police and the Prefcct OF Athens
were among the slightly injured.
Strong guards have been posted at
the Palace and the residence of the
Premier. and also Mt the offices OF the
Akropolis and Asty. The students
