Schinas WAS Intoxicated when he shot
King george. Witnesses told how ne
was drinking with two companions IN
a cafe garden close 20 where the King
was shot for . considerable time oe-
fore the monarch came along
Murdered" cried one OF his two conf
panions. still seated at the garden table
when the siiot was heard. according TO
these witnesses. II IL supposed that the
man referred to the King At whom
Schinas ss,ot.
ASSASSINATION WAS PReMeol.
rArgc, 10 THE BELIEF.
II has been established that sohinas
has lived much abroad and returned to
salomca only after It's capture from the
Turks and when King George came here
from Athens to take personal command
Of HE victorious army. The premcdita.
ton OF the ASSASSIN appears to have
been demonstrated by the fact that ne
iurked In hiding in q doorway on She
route OF tho Kings afternoon walk and
only showed himself when his Intended
Victim was within six feet OF the hiding
place.
When questioned by the police
schinas trucuiently answered:
you have cpurts: I will answer
there"
When his captors demanded to know
who he was and what was the motive
Of his crime. the stolid ASSASSIN merely
mumbled:
Take me 70 the police station 20 that
the crowd will not kill me- will talk
there"
But beyond giving his name and age
and his nationality the prisoner refused
to be drawn out. Once no snapped:
II do not believe In government.
That was the only direct indication OF
schinas's devotion to the destructive
POLITICAL creed Of anarchy.
ASSASSIN APPARENTLY NOT
KNOWN IN sALoNlcA.
The man does not seem to b known
In salonica. The police have not yet
discovered where he lived since his
coming here nor where he came from.
Schinas seems to be man whose mind
has dcsenerated either through hard.
ship or dissipation.

the removal Of King Georges body to
