clared, that no political significance could
be attached to the crime.
King George of Greece was a frequent
visitor to London his last visit being on
the occasion of King Edwards funeral.
when he met Col Theodore Roosevelt
and became exceedingly friendly with the
ex-President, whom he impressed as one
of the most democratic characters among
the European sovereigns assembled here.
Views of British Press.
Expression of intense indignation over
the assassination of King George of
Greece and deep sympathy for the royal
family and people of Greece is given free
ly by all the London morning newspa-
pers today and all in a similar strain.
He gave himself heart and soul to the
for fifty arduous, eventful years says
the Times, in tribute to the king, and he
has gone when she is reaping the harvest
he had sown."
king George left Greece far richer in
fame honor and power than he found
her, and he has bequeathed to her service
sons who have already proved their
worth, and an heir who will fill his place
with inherited courage and tenacity.'
says the Daily Express.
King Georges long reign was a slow
climb uphill, checkered with many re-
verses. says the Daily Chronicle, add
ing, If it be fortunate to die at the
height OF success, he died fortunately
The other newspapers similarly point
out that the king has been struck down
at moment when Greece stands higher
in the estimation of Europe than for
many years.
Sorrow at Copenhagen.
COPENHAGEN, March 19.-The deep
est sorrow fs felt here over the death of
King George of Greece, who was very
popular throughout Denmark For the
past fifty years he had been accustomed
to spend a six or eight week holiday in
Copenhagen, living like an ordinary citi-
zen and taking interest in everything
that concerned the life of his native
country.
When extra editions of the newspapers
spread the news of the assassination all
the theaters and music halls closed their
places and the people left silently.
Most of King Georges property. to the
value of possibly $2O,0G0,0 coo. is in Den
mark He was an excellent business
man and made fortune dealing in real
estate. He had a palace and several
houses I'm Copenhagen which he bought
cheaply and which afterward greatly in
creased in value. He also had many
houses in Paris. His money and securi-
ties were all kept in banks in Paris,
Vienna and London. as the stability of
the Greek throne was not firm enough at
times to encourage him in keeping his
wealth in Greece.
The Danish court will assume mourn
ing for long period. Prince Valdemar
and some of the younger princes, and
perhaps King Christian, will attend the
funeral. King George was educated in
the Danish navy, and the navy will
adopt mourning and send a delegation of
officers to the funeral.

Within two weeks after the crown

with enthusiasm. That enthusiasm has
been growing with the successes of the
Greeks.
The first great victory was the cap
lure Of Saloniki November s. after
which the chaplets and the memorials
were sent to Constantine. Then came
the long, persistent movement for the
objective point of the campaign, the
capture of the great Turkish strong
hold of Janina, in Epirus. The con-
duct of the Greek troops at that siege
has been described as mastery by the
military experts who observed 1T.
They surrounded the stronghold, bonn

it until there came overtures for sur

foreign powers acting for the Turkish
commander. The capitalization took place
March g. when the entire garrison OF
1900 men laid down arms and gave
themselves up as prisoners.
The manner In which he has borne
himself during the last four years has
served to convince not only the Greeks

show himself to ba an even still more sa-
gacious, able, and, above all, energetic
ruler than was his father.

OCCOQUAN DESCRIBED
BEFORE MRS. WILSON
Wife of President Hears Supt.
Whitaker, and Joins
Civic Workers.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. wife of the Presi-
dent. was an interested listener at a lee
ture by Superintendent Whitaker of the
workhouse at Occoquan, Va. given be-
fore the womans Welfare Department
of the National Civic Fedora ton at the
Y. NJ. c. A. today. Later Mrs. Wilson
enlisted herself in the work Of the de-
partment by becoming a member. She
handed to Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, chair
man of the department., her dues as she
was leaving the hall.
After taking his audience on trip
through the institution which houses the
Districts unfortunates, by means Of the
stereopticon. and showing them how the
work has progressed in the three years
il has been in existence, Mr.. Whitaker
told the women that he desired them to
use every effort possible to procure for
the District the indeterminate sentence
for prisoners sent to Occoquan.
Means Broader Reform.
BY this method, he said. better work
could be done in reforming the prisoners
by keeping them there under congenial
employment until they were able to stand
alone. Then the institution would help
to find employment for them and restore
their lost social position.
Mrs Hopkins asked Mr.. Whitaker to
present the matter in writing, and prom
est consideration.
The superintendent said he would do
this Immediately.
Another question which, he said. should
be taken up by the women and In which
they could do great good was the mat
ter of non-support cases. He declared he
believed that there We're some men sent
to him for nOn-Support Who really Should
not be there. In some cases. he eontin-
ued, the woman often wants TO make at
ndavlr against Tie man 10 yet !iu oI him.
slc asked that the women help him TO
secure number of cottages at Occu-
for non support could live with his family.
lie said he would have the non-Support
complainant tod that if she wanted her
husband sent down she must accompany
Llla and live with him while there. He
declared that he would also, IL possible,
provide school facilities for the children
uf these convicts.
Will Have Easter Eggs.
Eggs enough to serve the convicts
Easter We're predicted by Mr.. Whitaker.
Within a few months more he said he ex-
pected to be able to supply the Tuber-
culosis Hospital with it's supply of eggs as
we'll as milk.
He showed view of the convicts in
the library reading, and asked tnat any
good books and magazines which any one
wanted to donate to the library be sent
to the sewerage pumping station at I'd
and streets.
Mrs. Hopkins extended the thanks of
the department to Mr.. Whitaker for
the lecture.
Plans axe about complete. Mrs. Hop
kins announced, for. the employ menr OF
an expert TO improve existing alley
conditions. They hoped to make them
more sanitary, help the inha bitants to
pay their rent and show them how to
keep from falling in arrears.
Mrs. Hopkins also declared that she
hoped to have the support Of Mrs
Wilson in the work, for nothing is of
greater help in the effort to Improve
living conditions than the backing of
the White House.

found news that caused him TO go to
the support of the New Jersey jury
reform bin for the second time in two
days.
The New Jersey senate has passed
the measure without the referendum
amendment, regarded by the President
as intended to delay reform. but the
lower house has yet to accept the bill
without the amendment. Secretary
Tumulty at the Presidents direction
sent the following telegram TO GOV.
Fielder and Mayor Otto Wittpenn OF
Jersey City:
The President fears that the effort
to tack on a referendum will be con-
structed, in the present circumstances, as
a way of multiplying and perhaps defeating
the measure. The Presidents feeling Is,
therefore, altered. Our party's obligation
is plain and the President hopes very
earnestly that you will join with the ad-
vocates of the original measure.
Telegram Sent to Both.
The telegram was sent to Mayor Witt
penn as we'll as Gov. Fielder. 1t was stat
ed at the White House, because Mr.. Witt
penn is a leader in Hudson county, whose
twelve democratic assemblymen are re-
ported to be in favor of referendum
The President originally favored a refer
enduu, he said, il il were to be falr
one, but he objected TO the present pro
vision, believing that the people at the
last election gave their support TO the
state platform. which pledged the iegis-
lative ticket to jury reform.

Judge Howry for Chief Justice.
Senator's Vardaman Of Mississippi and
Owen of Oklahoma, accompanied by Rep
resentative Humphrey of Mississippi. to-
day asked the President to nominate
Judge Charles B. Howry of the Court OF
Claims for chief justice of that court, to
fill the vacancy made when Stanton j.
Peelle recently retired as chief justice
after a long service on the bench
President Taft, it viii be remembered,
nominated Judge Fenton w. Booth or the
Court of Claims bench for chief justice.
and in place of Judge Booth nominated
minister to Switzerland. Both nomlna-
lions failed of confirmation. If Judge
Howry, who was appointed a judge on
that court from Mississippi in 1897, Is
made chief justice, as seems probable
another democrat will be named for judge
of the court to take Judge Howry s
place.
