he was university graduate and
highly educated. He returned to Sal
onika after its occupation by the
Greeks, having lived abroad for sever
al years. One report was that Schin-
as lived for a time in America.
A supposed indication of the mans
unsound mind was his stoicism and
apparent unconcern after the shoot
ing. He displayed no emotion when
he shot King George and was placid
and nonchalant after his arrest.
Il do not believe in government"
was the only answer he made when
pressed by officers for some reason
for his mad act.
From this declaration It is believed
that Schinas Is an anarchist. The
statement that he was socialist was
mot confirmed.
In just few months King George
would have completed a half century
reign, and he was talking about 1t to
his aide, Lieutenant-Colo Francoud-
lis, when the assassin shot him. The
king, Danish prince still in his
minority. was drafted for their ruler
by the Greek national assembly in
June, 1863, and actually assumed the
throne in November following. He
was congratulating himself on the
progress OF Greece during the fifty
years and on the fact that a German
warship was to do him royal honor
today when the assassin's bullet
found his heart.

nor denied, said King George, satish-

sible, whether S. Aleke Schinas was
simply an unbalanced anarchist, act
ing alone. when he shot down King
George In Salonika street yester-
day, or whether he was crafty agent
of an organized anarchist band. A
rendezvous Of anarchists exists at
Volo. and the ministry heard re-
port that the plot to kill King George
was Matched there.
1t was rumored here that the as.
sassination OF the king was but the
beginning Of an anrchist project to
murder the rulers OF all the Balkan
states. Car Ferdinand, OF Bulgaria;
King Nicholas, OF Montenegro, and
King Peter, OF Servia, also were said
to be marked. No confirmation OF
this was forthcoming. though. and
nothing developed in Salonika to In
dictate that Turks had anything to do
with the killing of the Greek king.
Schinas is OF Greek birth and a
native CT Salonika. He was abroad
for years, part of the time in uni.

SALONIKA, March 19.-Eyidence
was obtained today that Schinas was
intoxicated when he shot King George.
Witnesses. told how he was drinking
with two companions In cafe garden
close to where the king was shot, for
a considerable time before the mon.
arch came along.
"Murdered!' cried one OF his Two
companions, still seated at the garden
table, when the shot was heard, &C.
cording to Witnesses It is supposed
that the man referred to the king and
knew at whom Schinas shot.
The Turkish and Jewish residents
of Salonika were in terror, today
fearing massacre at the hands OF
the Greeks, should the military con
troll be relaxed. The Jews were bar
ricaded In their shops and homes.

democratic was the late king that he

would not tolerate escorts, or any
thing that, he said, would make him
look like king.
