Saloniki, March 1s.-Aleko Schinas,
murderer Of George I Of Greece. ap-
pears to have lived much abroad. He
returned to this city only after it was
occupied by the Greek army after the
surrender Of the Turks.
The premeditation Of the regicide
appears to be established by the fact
that Schinas lurked in hiding. He
rushed out when his royal victim was
only six feet from his hiding place
and fired point blank in to the back OF
the king. Lieutenant Colonel Francou-
dis. the kings aide de camp. who was
walking beside his royal master, Inn
mediately drew his revolver. Shinas
turned and fired at the aid but the
shot went wild. Cretan military po-
licemen who were acting as escort to
the king dived at 7Chinas and pinned
his arms before he could fire again.
Died on Way TO Hospital.
When Francoudis saw the assassin
had been arrested he turned to King
George, whom he supposed to have
escaped unscathed. and was Mortified
to find his majesty stretched on the
roadway. Francoudis raised the strick-
en- monarch's head from the pave
ment but the king was already uncon-
scious and he never spoke again. Sol
diers who had been summoned lifted
the king from the ground and carried
him to hospital The king died before
reaching there.
When questioned by the police
Chinas truculently replied:
"You have courts. will speak
there"
Pressed to say who he was and
what was the motive OF his crime. he
replied:
Take me to the police station. SO
that the crowd will not maltreat me.

Many Courts in Mourning.

New York, March 19.-Almost every
court In Europe will be thrown into
mourning by the death Of King George
or Greece. AS Prince of Denmark he
was closely related to the crowned
heads Of Great Britain, Germany, Rus
sal. Sweden. Norway, and Spain.
The ruling house of Denmark is
unique in the ramifcations of its re-
lationships. which. owing to its oiplo-
matte and strategic positions, has been
amplffed by the elections OF its princes
to thrones Of other Kingdoms. King
George himself owed his crown to that
circumstance, IS does his nephew,
kink Haakon VII, Of Norway. Recent
ly Prince Waldemar, his brother, has
been mentioned as possible king of
Albania.
The empress dowager Of Russia,
Marie Feodorovna, was the Danish
Princess Dagmar. sister OF the rnur-
dered king. His widow is a cousin Of
the present car.
Allied With Many Realms.
TO the ruling family of Sweden the
relation is likewise close. Denmark's
queen dowager. the sister-in-law Of the
late King George. was Princess Louise
of Sweden. daughter Of King Charles
XIV. She married the late King Fred
1859.
With Great Britain, Denmark has al
ways had the closest ties. Alexandra,
the queen mother Of Great Britain. was
princess OF Denmark, aunt Of its
present king. and sister Of King George
Of OF ozfrs.eece..wss-As:.Aas q. e s!ster Of the
latter she formed q bond with the Ger
man throne thru her late husbard. Ed
ward Wills nephew, the Emperor Ct
Germany. In the youngest generation
these bonds with England and Ger
many have been renewed In the mar
riages Of the new Greek King Con-
stantine and his brother, Prince
Andrew.
New Queen kaissr's Sister,
The new kings wife was the Prin-
cess Sofia, sister Of Emperor William.
and the wife Of Prince Andrew was
Princess Victoria Alice of Battenberg,
grandniece of Edward VII. and daugh-
ter Of Prince Henry Of Battenberg.
present first lord Of the admiralty.
Even with Spain and the house d
Hapsburg. there is connection by mar
riage. King Alfonsos wife, Princess
Victoria Eugenia of Battenberg, Is also
a daughter of Prince Henry. VINO mar
ried Princess Beatricia, daughter OF
Queen Victoria. And by this marriage
the Greek throne is connected WIN
Spain thru the ruling families OF Den
mark and Great Britain. More remote
lv Austria is connected thru the span.
ish queen dowager, who is an Imperial
nr,ncess and arch-duchess Of Austria.
AS the wife of King Christian x. o.
Denmark is Alexandrina, Duchess OF
Mecklenburg, sister Of the crown prln-
cess of Germany, the courts OF the Two
countries will be even closer after the
present German emperor's death.

CONGRESS MEETS IN
EXTRAORDINARY SESSION

Washington, April THE extra.
ordinary session of Congress called by
President Wilson to consider tariff
legislation met today. At the outset
the impression has been gained that
the President intends to be boss OF
the situation. He intends that the
tariff shall receive first consideration,
then if there is time, the other sub
jects engaging the interest of National
Legislators will receive consideration.
The Presidents announced policy of
taking an active part in the framing
of legislation will prevail in the draft
ing of the tariff schedule; if Mr.. VIII
son objects to features of the legisla-
ton planned, they will be revised and
gone over until they do meet his ap-
proval, otherwise they are sure OF
being vetoed when they go to him for
signature.
