ATHENS, Nov. 1&-The American
cruiser. Tennessee, is now at Chias. the
Greek possession in the Aegean Sea.
Reports reaching here today announce
the arrival Of the warshtp there. 1t is
reported the Tennessee was ordered
from Smyrna and into the Greek waters
by Ambassador Morgenthau.
The Turkish authorities are said to
have requested that the Tennessee
leave the vicinity of Smyrna after a
launch from the American warship
was reported to have been fired upon.
No mention is made in reports here
OF Captain Decker having threatened to
enter the Smyrna harbor by force, nor is
anything said Of the Tennessee having
endeayored to establish any protection
over French, English and Russian SUBJ
jects there. The captains launch from
the warship was heading in-shire that
the American commander might pay his
respects to the Smyrna officials when
she was fired upon, it is declared

The Tennessee originally went to Turk
Sab waters to carry $5,000,000 in gold
Sor the relief OF stranded Americans in
Turkey and Asia Minor. All this money
has been distributed. largely among
American missionaries. The United
States cruiser North Carolina, which
went as a convoy, is now at Beirut, Tur-
key, 500 miles from Smyrna.
Will Not Recall Tennessee.
In supporting the idea that the shot
fired at the Tennessee's launch may
simply have been intended as a warn
ing that the port was closed, the Navy
Department this morning declared that
on one occasion some years ago, when
the United States did not wish foreign
warships to visit its naval base at Guam
tenamo, a shot was fired by an Amer
cruiser, without, however, any bad feel
ing resulting.
Reports that the Tennessee and
North Carolina might be immediately
recalled from European waters in or
der to avoid another Maine disas-
teri were widely circulated after the
report was confirmed OF the firing Of
the shot. But Secretary OF the Navy
Daniels and other raw officials would
not discuss the matter. The Secretary
declared that he proposed to take one
step at time and that until after he
received Captain DeclSer's report on
the shot incident he would not even
consider the status Of the cruisers

cans who were unable to get money

The one thing which caused more anx-
iety ct the State. Department than the
plight of the Tennessee, which admit
tediy can take care of itse'f. was the
declaration by Captain Decker that
Consul Horton was anxious -. the safe
ty OF the consulate. This was inter-
pretod to indicate that there was much
anti-foreisn feeling In Smyrna Cn.

thau clears up this section there viii be

the Flintlock Realty Company was

story dwelling east OF Park avenue
on this property Mr.. Morgan had TO
pay taxes based on valuation OF

The story told about this house Is
that it was about to be sold, decorator

Through an agent he made an oirer

business from coming into his nome
district from that quarter. II stories
told by brokers are correct there was
no more careful guardian or a section
than Mr.. Morgan. He watched Its al
fairs and tendencies with the same in
terest he gave to many big financial
matters. When no saw a weakness In
the wall like the mythical giants OF old
he threw himself into the breach and
prevented the threatened invasion. His
money was ever ready for such pur-
pose.

not turn out as we'll as was calculated.

some time and Mr.. Morgan foreclosed

Until the publication OF the list OF
realty holdings of the late j. Pierpont
Morgan the man Of Wall Street was not
known to have owned 30 much real es-
tate. Except for the family colony on
Madison avenue, over which he watched
with eagle eye: the building Of his firm
at the corner OF Wall and Broad streets
his estate on the Hudson River opposite
West Point and a camp in tho Adiron-
dacks the real estate market knew him
to own nothing more. Brokers tried
time and again to interest Mr.. Morgan
in some choice piece Of real estate. Often
he was told that the return would be as
great az from many Wall Street deals.
couraged brokers who wanted him to
buy by remarking that he had no in
terest in real estate and never could see
much in II. Experienced brokers would
never think Of Mr.. Morgan as q pros
pective buyer. Yet he bought real es-
tate with the secrecy that many Of our
well known men throw about their ac-
tivities In the market, and nobody
seemed to know Of It.
Realty brokers were surprised group

did he do IT." Never heard OF him

tolerable. The builders had decided that
an apartment might not pay AZ we'll as
an office building. What the neighbors
thought or threatened to do did not
seem to abash them. Their money was
In the operation and the likes and dis
likes Of the man next door or down on
the next block oil. anywhere else was not
going to stand IN the way of making
the building a success
So they went on with the building Of
an office building after making the an
nouncement that they had changed their
plans. Mr.. Baker bought the unfin-
ished building as the easiest and quick
est means OF stopping the operation. and
at the same time agreed to assume all
the obligations connected with the oper-
alton, such as the cost OF plans, material
contracts and the like. Mr. Baker, It
was said at the time. had the support Of
several wealthy men in the purchase OF
the corner. Mr.. Morgan was said to be
one OF them because of his known ami
mostly to business within the restricted
Murray Hill zone. 1t now appears that
Mr.. Morgan was much more interested
than was at first believed. The city val
ues the property at $4,000, For some
time the building remained unfinished.
There II stood, a stunted mass Of steel
beams and g!rders. What to do with II
was a question. When II was bought
It was the belief OF the buyer that II
would be sold to some one as a home
site. But the fight against trade waged
for many years by Mr.. Morgan and
others OF Murray Hill was no incentive
to home building on that corner and
the property remained unsold.
WITH carrying charges increasing
steadily the owner finally decided to
give In to trade. But this trade was
ITO be controlled by the owner. Mr.
Morgan finished the building In such

the remarks heard in brokers' offices
after the story was published.
Mr.. Morgan owned a number OF par
GELS in the vicinity of his home. The
opinion is that he bought these to pre-
serve the residential atmosphere OF the
section in which he lived. He did 1t in
a manner that did not attract atten-
ton and often his name slipped into the
records unnouced by a score OF keen
eyed brokers. The northwest corner OF
Madison avenue and Thirty eighth stree,
was not known to be Mr.. Morgan's until
Lewis Cass Ledyard. Jr.. prepared the
list OF Morgan holdings for the State
Comptroller. George Baker of the First
National Bank. who lives next to the
corner, was credited always with the
ownership OF this property. At times
stories were heard that Mr.. Morgan wac
interested with Mr.. Baker In the cor
ner, but that he owned It outright was
secuted.
This Is the corner bought for 81. 200
900 to prevent the construction OF an
office building. An apartment house
formerly covered the corner. A real
estate operator bought 1t and announced
that a modern apartment building would
be erected which would add to the APP
pearance of the section. As an apart
ment house Rad stood on the corner for
many years Murray Hill owners raised
no objections. The foundation had been
laid and the steel work was up TO the
first tier when the builders decided to
change the character Of the building
from an apartment to an office struc-
ture. This is what Mr., Morgan. whose
family colony was only a block below.
and Mr.. Baker. who lived next to the
Improvement. as well as many OF the
other wealthy residents of Murray Hill
had fought many years to prevent. Bust

With all these advantages Mr.. Degnon
believed his property worthy OF better
than ordinary factory development As
he consulted about Il and turned the
matter over In his mind the idea was
evolved OF making II a centre OF great
industries--a place where the largest
| manufacturers could locate their plants
amid ideal conditions and surroundings.
