AGREEMENT ENDS
BATTLEW ATHENS
Greece Yields 6 Batteries
Allies Waive Other De-
mands-200 Die in Fight

London. Dec. 2.-Athens is quiet to-
night. following a day Of terror. After
200 persons had been killed in clashes
between Entente troops and Greek re-
servists and between Venikelists and
royalists, King Constantine yielded in
part to the demands Of Admiral du
Fournet and truce was arranged.
The monarch agreed to surrender the
arms demanded by the Entente COM
mander and du Fournet Immediately
ordered most of his forces to with
draw from the city. About 800 troops
were left to guard the Zappeion, ac'
cording to reports.
Part of Demands Waived
The Crown Council sat until $3.50
o'clock this morning. Later the French,
British, Russian and Italian ministers
made the following announcement:
"On the proposal Of the ministers Of
the four powers, at the instance of the
admiral (du Fournet), the Greek gov
ernment was informed that the En-
tente will accept six batteries Of noun
tain artillery instead Of ten, whose sur
render was demanded by December l,
waving on their delivery al. questions
of the surrender of other armament.
The Greek government accepted and
agreed to proceed with the immediate
delivery of the six batteries
The greatest confusion reigned in
the city during the fighting. Pitched
battles took place between the oppos-
ing Greek forces in the streets. On
the southern slopes Of the Acropolis
French sailors and Greek troops fought
at close range.

Shells from the Allied warships
dropped in the centre Of tn city. Both
the British and the French legations
were attacked by Greeks. French at

Observatory Hill were repulsed at the
point Of the bayonet.
Even while truce was pelhB az
ranged in the French Legation. at the
instance of the Spanish and Dutch min
isters, the fighting kept up in the city
According 10 one report, the King
was in conference with his Premier re
garding an armistice when the firing
was renewed. He immediately ordered
it stopped and agreed to surrender the
six batteries if the Entente forces were
withdrawn.
All a Misunderstanding
Before quitting Athens, Vice-Ad-
miral du Fournet called on General
Callaris of the Greek forces and ex-
planned that the Entente forces had no
orders TO fire on the Greeks. General
Callaris explained that the Greeks
likewise we're not ordered 70 fire on
the Allies, and IL was agreed on both
sides that the affair was due 70 a mis-
understanding.

Struggle for Mastery


dgnfed a term, for this Is really
struggle between two iorces holding
different views as TO the methods
necessary TO attain the same end-as-
surance Of Britain's position in the
world.
The first session Of Parliament will
see the initial test Of strength. The
opposition plan calls for a war council
Of five, including the Premier, Lloyd
George, Bonar Law, A. J. Balfour. First
Lord Of the Admiralty, and Sir Edward
Carson. This council would have su-
preme control. II there were a chance
of success with another man the op-
position would eliminate Asquith, but
with Carson combining forces with
Lloyd George and Bonar Law, they
think their policies will be carried out.
Vital Questions to Come Up
On Tuesday Premier Asquith viii
introduce new vote Of credit, and he
is expected then to deal with several
vital questions awaiting solution. His
statement probably will be followed by
a discussion in which A. ]. Balfour.
First Lord Of the Admiralty. and
others will participate.
The name of the food controller will
be announced, while the subject Of the
country's man power and the control
Of the air services will be debated.
Mr. Balfour's failure TO adopt sugges-
tions made by committee in regard
to the air service has come In for the
sharpest criticism.
The country has reached a point
where promises no longer satisfy. Too
many have gono unfrlhlled where de-
lay and procrastination exasperats
beyond measure, and where fearful re-
suits must follow unless the strongest
course is pursued.
Many Causes Of Crisis
The present situation is due TO
variety Of causes. Submarine actiyi-
ties, food shortage. Rumania's plight
and the ever-growing lists of casual
ties serve TO impress the people with
the immensity Of the undertaking they
are pledged to see through.
Determination and confidence are as
strong as ever, for Britain wants to
carry on; her situation is not un-
common for belligerent in the mids.
Of war. The present government is
certainly as anxious TO win as the op-
position, but its terrible weight Of re-
sponsibility makes for caution.
No one appreciates the internal con-
ditions Of Great Britain's allies so
well as members Of the Cabinet; no
outsider knows the difficulties which
beset them. II Great Britain were
/ fighting alone, different course would
/ be followed, but now her every action
is determined by its effecs on France.

COUNCIL OF FIVE
TO DIRECT WAR
Premier's Foes Hope to
Control 1t and Force
Vigorous Policies
By ARTHUR s. DRAPER

London, Dec. 2.-Premier Asquith
had long audience with the King
to-day. Following it a myriad ru-
mors spread over London, chief
among them the report that he had
resigned, that Bonar Law had sue
ceeded him temporarily, and that
David Lloyd George would finally
become Prime Minister.
Lord Northcliffe in "The Evening
News" reported that Lloyd George
and his secretaries were packing up.
preparatory to quitting the War
Office. But this "out gingers" the
ginger group" organ, "Reynolds's
Newspaper"
Lloyd George Dissatisfied
This paper, controlled by Sir
Henry Dalziel, a close friend Of
Lloyd George, will say tomorrow:
"Mr. Lloyd George is entirely dis
satisfied with the present conduct Of
the war, eliminating in the failure
adequately to assist Rumania, and
his resignation is likely at any mo-
ment. If he resigns it means that
ne believes the opposition strong
enough 10 overthrow Asquith. If he
is wrong in this assumption he will
be eliminated politically for some
time"
Critical" is the only word covering
the situation here. Anything milder
falls short of the truth. Since my dis
patch Of November "a telling of the
move to shelve Asquith the opposition
has gained much ground, and now tho
stage is set for tremendous political

Inc nrSt step IN tne plan 10 put tne
dime to work was thus taken. 1t re-
mained 10 see how those who had
helped the fund to grow would feel
about this disposition. During the
last ten months ninety-one newspapers
scattered throughout the country re-
ceived contributions to the fund and
their editors were invited by The Trib-
une 10 act as a committee to determine
upon its final disposal. Each of these
editors was informed Of the new pro-
posal and all but four gave it their
enthusiastic approval. Three of these
have not been heard from to date, al
though letter was sent them some
weeks ago informing them that failure
TO answer would mean acceptance Of
the proposition. One disapproved.

COUNTRY TOWN SAYINGS

You. can't always trust people; in
fact, you can't always trust yourself.
When man takes a bitter medi-
cine, he usually leaves a little in the
spoon.
What fierce, undying love you see
On the stage; and what'a tame variety
there is in the audience.
If a man offers you a good thing,
you have a right to wonder why he
does not keep it himself.
AS a rule, the possession of any con-
siderable sun of money represents in
dustry, saving and old age.
Half the people fear a crisis IL q
certain thing is done; and the other
half fear a crisis if it is not done.
A really dangerous man tries to
avoid trouble; he has been in it be
fore, and knows that trouble is dis
agreeable.-Ed Howe in the AtchisOn
Globe.
