though the mobilization, which includes men up to 43 years of age, probably will call for 300,000 troops. those over the 1S0. 900 cannot be armed. It Is said the gov ernment has sufficient funds to continue a war footing for one month. The prob is the obtaining of money from the triple entente powers.
 Mobilization will be completed Sunday night October 3)
 The signing of the mobilization order created general relief here. 1t was con- sidered an extraordinary triumph for Premier Venizelos, who is known to have had long struggle with King Constan- tin before the monarch would yield to the premier's wishes.
 Crowds gathered before the foreign of flee and the newspaper bulletin boards to- day while M. Venizelos was in consulta- tion with the King. The people showed an ugly temper when rumors of a resig- nation of the cabinet were circulated
 curious and disconcerting feature of the Creek mobilization is the ignorance of the mobilized men as to their destina- tion or the purpose for which they were called to the colors. The newspapers, which usually indulge in the ffeest ex- presson of opinion, are generally silent respecting the fate of the Servian-Greek treaty of alliance, which the King all dionS udS Hldllltdineu was aDrOedted Dy the Servians, owing to their concessions to Bulgaria and the effectiveness of which today is the key to the future action of Greece.
 story generally current in Athens and widely accepted as Illustrating the exist ing situation Is that Premier yenizelos at his conference with King Constantin, pleaded that the Selv1an alliance must be observed, if for no other reason than A means of defe,se against Rulparia
 A close friend of King Constantin is authority for, the statement that the King in reply exhibited telegram from the German Emperor guaranteeing that Greece would not be attacked by Bull gar'ia if she remained neutral and that the premier said

EDISON ID PRESIDE AT FIRST MEETING
 0F ADVISORY BOARD
Session Will Be Held Today in Secretary Daniels Off, fice-22 Members to
 Participate

Washington, October 5.-Thomas A. Ed ison. chairman of the naval advisory board. arrived in Washington tonight to preside over the first meeting of the board tomorrow in Secretary Daniels of flee. All of the other 22 members are expected to be present
 At a brief session at which the ad- visory council of the department will be present the board will lay plans for fu- ture meetings. for division of labor among it's members and for conferences with navy department experts. The members then will go to the White House to be received by President Wilson. They aft erwards will board the presidential yacht Mayfiower for a trip to the naval proving grounds at Indian Head to inspect the laboratories and see tested the newest IA inch gun turned out by the navy gun factory.
 The new rife is 50-calibre weapon as against the 45-calibre H-inch gun on ships already in commission. It is one of those built for the battlship Idaho, under con struction, and ordnance experts believe 1t is equal if not superior to the 15-inch guns mounted on the latest European battleships. It Is because of the dwell opment of this weapon that the depart ment has as yet made no use of the heavier 16-inch rife perfected by it's engi- neers many months ago.
 The first problem to be presented for consideration of the civilian board when 1t settles down to work will be that of developing satisfactory gasoline or oil en- zines for aeroplanes and submarines. De- tails of all experiments made and pend ing by department engineers in this line already have been prepared for submis- sion to the board with full statements of what must be accomplished and the difficulties encountered.
 The problem of defense against torpedo attack probably, ranks second in impor- tance Much is said to have beeen ac- complished along this line by Rear Ad- miral David Taylor. chief naval construc- tor, and his aides. 9
