Constantine Expressed His
Doubt That Resistance
Could be Kept Up
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Athens, Dec. 28.-(Via Paris, Dec.
28.-Delayed. lin an interview to-
day with General Castelnau. chief of
the French general staff, King Com
stantine expressed doubt that the cen
trail empires would be able to resist
indefinitely the economic and espe-
cially the financial pressure of the
war. General Castelnau so reported
the kings opinion tonight in state
ment to the Associated Press.
The Greek sovereign asked the
French commander why by the Slow
ness of their operations they had per-
mitted the crushing of Belgium and
Serbia and the failure Of the Darda-
nelles campaign. General Castelnau's
reply was that nobody denied these
unfortunate results We're extremely
regrettable.
att would be most highly desir-
able" the general declared, eff Bel
GUM and Serbia were still intact and
if Russia could today be revictualed
by way of the Dardanelles, but we
must see the war as a whole. 1t
would be folly capable of jeopardizing
final victory of which alone we have
the right to think, to undertake any
military action without the most COM
plete preparation and every assurance
of success humanity possible.
eff material and forces are no,
available, however, painful the re-
suit of inaction may be, it is truly
criminal to go off half cooked. Re

were forced to give up so must the
Germans. I have given three sons,

GERMAN POST
by SURPRISE
Approach Unseen, Cut Wire
Obstacles and Fight With
Hand Grenades
BY AgsoCIArKD PREss.

- =
Petrograd, Dec. 28.-The official
statement issued today by general
headquarters reads as follows:
Western front: At Schmarden, in
the direction Of the coast region, a
Russian detachment organized a sur
prise attack upon German pos. At
o'clock in the morning the Russians
approached without being seen, cut
the wire obstacles in many places,
threw themselves upon the German
huts, flung hand grenades through
the windows, and after a hand-to-
hand encounter, destroyed the whole
post. Six prisoners were taken. In
spite of a heavy fire from the south
the Russians retired successfully with
insignificant losses. In the region of
Czartorysk station near a cemetery
in the village of Novo Podcherevitchi,
we annihilated another German post,
taking is prisoners.
'Tn the Black Sea near the Bull
garian shore our torpedo boats de-
stroyed two sailing vessels and bonn
barded posts upon the shore. The
enemy's submarines attacked our de-
stroyer, the Gromkii, near the Bull
garian coast. The Gromkii skilfully
evaded two torpedoes and repulsed an
attack by gun fire. There is reason
to believe that one of the submarines
was sunk"

I have been denounced from one end

the war in chartering ships to supply
our cruisers at sea with coal and food
as though it were crime instead of
being, as it is and has been consid-
cred by your court, to be a strictly
lawful act. The ships that brought
coal, provisions and supplies from
Hong Kong to Admiral Dewey's fleet
during the Spanish-American war in
1893 were cleared for Macao and not
for the American warships at sea and
in their clearance papers it was
stated that the cargo consisted of
scrap iron.

not advisable to bring home any
American ambassadors to belligerent
countries at this time and that it has
been found impossible to convey to

the correct atmosphere.

BOY-ED SENT HOME
Captain Karl Boyd was naval
attache of the German embassy at
Washington for about four years. His
name was first mentioned in connec-
ton with alleged German plots in
this country when Richard P. Steg-
Ter, who was arrested here last Febru-
airy for passport frauds, told the fed
eral authorities that Boy-ed asked
him to go to England and locate a
fleet of British dreadnoughts.. Cap
tain Boy-ed denied knowing about the
passport fraud or that he sent Steg-
Ter to England as spy.
During the trial Karl Buenz here
about a month ago on charges of con-
spiracy to defraud the United States
through false manifests issued to
steamers sent with supplies to Ger
man warships, counsel for the defend
ants admitted that the German gov
eminent expended more than $4,000
600 here directly after the beginning
of the war in sending out supply
ships and that Captain Boy-ed super
vised some of the expenditures.
Secretary Lansing requested his re-
call on December 8. The German en-
peror on December 10 recalled both
Captain Boy-ed and Franz Won Papen,
the German military attache.
STATEMENT BY BOY-ED
Captain Boy-ed issued the follow
ing statement just before sailing:
