No COE RCION IS
USED BY TEUTONS
Central Powers Will Permit
Greece to Fix Own Policy.
R0umania is Feared.

BERLIN, Nov. 23-Germany has
no secret agreement with Greece.
Teutonic diplomacy is making no
effort to combat the threats. prom
ises and actual pressure being eXerted
by the entente powers at Athens.
Germany is willing to allow Greece
to choose her future policy by herself
German newspapers in analyzing
the Balkan situation today emphasized
the foregoing points, but at the same
time admitted the possibility that
Greece may be forced into the conflict
on the side of the allies by England
and France
There was slight undercurrent Of
pessimism apparent, and yet military
experts were quoted as saying that
even if Greece Joined the entente
powers in the field with her army of
100000 she would find that this pos
siDility had not been overlooked by the
German general staff
Expect Decision Soon.
A decision by Greece is expected
very soon, but ever if it is adverse to
Germany it is declared that it will
have no ultimate effect on the out
come of the conflict in the Balkans.
The greatest danger is that a de-
cisiOn on the part of Greece to join
the allies might influence Roumania
to take similar action.
Germany went into the Balkans to
open direct communication with Con-
stantinOple and to remove the menace
which remained as long as the Serbian
army rested against the southern
boundary of Austro- Hungary.
The way is open to Constantinople
and the Serb army has been smash
ed. That the victories Of the Teutonic
allies had strong influence upon King
Constantine is shown by the fact that
the bulldozing Of the agents Of France
and England has been without decisive
effect.
Situation Is Acute
Dispatches from the Greek capital
show that the government realizes
fully the acuteness Of its situation
Should Greece reject the terms of the
allies and side with the Germans. she
would have to relinquish her coast
line, all her islands and PROBABLY
Athens itself. None of the Greek ports
have Qualifications which could stand
before the bonn bardment Of the great
AnglO-French armada. All her COM
merce-the life blood of the Greek
nation-wOuld be destroyed
The Greek navy, the nucleus Of
which is two old battleships purchas-
ed from the United States. would be
annihiliated instantly.
Those are the considerations which
the Greek government must keep in
mind should it decide TO cast its lot
with the central empires.
On the other hand should Greece go
in with the allies the way would be
opened for an immediate invasion Of
Greek territory at Eskije and Petrieth
where heavy forces Of Bulgars and
Turks have been concentrated
The fact that these troops have been
kept on the Greek border shows that
Greece has no secret agreement with
the German allies despite rports TO
the contrary

GUARD BUILDINGS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Most of
the government buildings in Wash
ingtOn are now being more carefully
guarded than at any time in the his
tory of the country since Civil war
days. Officials today refused to dis
cuss the unusual precautions being
taken but it is generally known that
an attempt by fanatics to destroy the
buildings with bombs is feared.
Col. w. w. Harte, who is in charge
of public buildings and grounds. said
today he recently ordered all watch
men 10 arm themselves. Originally
the guards were supposed to be arm
ed, he said, but they had been allow
ed to discard their weapons. Now,
however, they are all armed and in
stead Of remaining at a certain place
during the day they are compelled to
walk beats around the buildings
Every person entering any govern
ment building is subjected to the
closest scrutiny. Anyone carrying
bundle or a package is stopped and
forced TO give a good explanation be-
fore being allowed to enter any build
ing.
So far as is known the guard at
the capital has not been increased.
The watchmen are all unusually ac-
tive, however, since reports were pub
lished that extra precautions were be-
ing taken to protect all railroad tun-
nelS and property near the capitol.
The Terminal company maintained
its strong force Of extra policemen at
the Union station and at the entrance
of the tunnels TO south Washington

no developments but that the com

EXTRA Session
AGAIN RUMORED
Senate Only Is Involved;
Ratification of Treaties
Considered Imperative.

Washington. D. c, Feb. 25-Possi-
bilities of an extra session of the
senate alone after March 4, for consid-
Grafton of treaties and nominations,
were discussed today among admins
tration leaders. While white house
officials refused to discuss the subject.
it was known president Wilson was
giving it consideration. Treaties with
Colombia to pay S25, 900, 900 for the par
tition OF Panama, and with Nicaragua
to pay $3,OOO,OOO for inter-oceanfc
canal rights and naval bases, undoubt-
eddy will fail Of ratification at the
present session.
The need of action on them is con-
sidered by the administration of great
importance. Officials also fear con-
firmation of the federal trade commits
sion will be delayed,
Won't Affect House.
The president, it was said, has no
thought Of an extra session of congress
as a whole. Special sessions of the
senate hitherto have been to confirm
nominations of cabinet officers.
Only Six Days Left.
With only six working days remain
ing of the present session Of congress
the prospect of enacting any other
legislation aside from the apprOpria-
ton bills before adjournment was re-
garded by senate Democratic leaders
today as very slim. They were cOncen-
trating their efforts towards the
passage Of the supply measures.
While reports continued today of a
revival of attempts to put through the
government ship purchase bill in
accordance with president Wilson's
wishes, administration senators ad-
mitted there was little hope Of doing
so because of Republican opposition.
Prospects of passing the river and har-
Dor bill in its present form also were
anything but bright. 1t was expected
that a joint resolution would be sub
stituted for it, appropriating about
S30,O0O,000 for continuing existing
projects.

An indication of the intention of adj
