WATSON CASE GOES
OVER UNTIL FALL
THIS FAMOUS CASE WILL NOT BE
TRIED NEXT MONTH AS
WAS EXPECTED.

Indications are that the trial of Tom
Watson on the charge of sending OBJ
scene matter through the mailsl will
be put over until fall. This according
10 a statement of District Attorney
Earl Donaldson.
The main reason for the postpone
ment will be that Judge Emory Speer
has refused to withdraw Els order of
disqualification in the case, and Judge
Lambdin has stated that due to the
large amount Of business he now has
on hand he will hardly be able to pre-
side over the case until the fall SEES.

time he is scheduled to be on the
bench. No other jurist mas been Sc

hardly probable that one will be OBJ

The case has attracted even greater
ia crest since its first trial, due to

Constantine Reported to Be
in Flight After Failing
to Restrain Nation
VENIZELOS PARTY
is LEFT IN POWER

London, Sept. 1. King Constantine
of Greece has abdicated, according to
the British official press representative
at Saloniki -.. .
The press representative says the
king has abdicated In favor Of the
crown prince with Venizelos as the
power behind the throne. The new
policy, he reports. will be to work with
the entente allies.
According to this information, Pre-.
mier Zaimis will remain at the head
of the government ,..
The correspondent questions wheth-
er the entente allies desire the active
assistance of Greece.
Ward Price to whom the foregoing
dispatch is credited, Is the official Brit
ish press representative, designated by
the government to act for all British
publications in that area. Nevertheless
his dispatches are subject not only to
the Greek censorship but to the French
military censorship, which controls
all lines of communication from
Athens. The fact that both censor
ships, as we'll as the British censor
dispatch to come through Is signif1-
cant. ..
On Tuesday Mr. Price sent from Sal
oniki report that King Constantine
had fed from Athens to Larissa. This
dispatch was discredited in London Of
ficial circles. Doubt also appeared to
be cast on it's correctness by dis
patches filed from Athens Wednesday,
one Of them telling Of coming meet
ings between the king and the entente
ministers and others having to do with
the illness of the king, who recently
underwent a slight operation, It Is
possible, however, that the king may
have departed secretly from Athens,
as reported by Mr. Price and that his
absence was concealed from the news
paper correspondents there.

Revolution Begins

London, Sept. 1.-The beginning Of
revolution in Macedonia is reported
in a Reuter- dispatch filed yesterday
at Salonih.
Fighting occurred in Salonild, the
correspondent adds, but serious trou-
BILE was prevented by the Intervention
of soldiers of the entente allies.
"The revolution claimed it's first
victims this morning." the correspon-
dent cables. "Cretan gendarmes and
Macedonian volunteers surrounded
the barracks Of the Greek infantry in
Saloniki and exchanged shots with
the garrison. But for the interven-
might have been more serious
after half promising to participate
in demonstration arranged yesterday
by a pro-ally committee, the Greek
troops finally refused. During the
night pro-ally volunteers made de-
termined attempt to seize the barracks
but failed. 1t is asserted one gen.
darme was killed and that two were
wounded. The losses of the loyalists
have not been ascertained."
... King 10 Fleeing.
An Athens dispatch received yester-
day predicted that Greece would aban-
don neutrality within the immediate
future. 1t has also been reported that
King Constantine was finding his posi-
tion very difficult on account of the
growing strength of the pro-entente
faction and 1t was reported from Sa-
loniki in dispatch filed on Tuesday
that the king had taken fight to Lar
issa, where he was under the protec-
ton of German soldiers.
There is in existence in Greece q
committee representing the liberal or
Venizelos faction and 1t is possible
that the Greek garrisons surrendered
to this or some similar body The
committee was appointed on Sunday,
on the occasion of the demonstration
of $4,000 Greeks before the residence
of M. Venizelos in Athens, and was
instructed to present to the king res
olutions warning him not to interfere
in the approaching elections and to
prepare the army for possible rup-
ture of existing conditions.
The part Of Greek Macedonia in
which the forts mentioned are located
Is in northern Greece close behind the
front, on which the entente allies are
fighting the Bulga1ans and their allies.
Vodena is on the railroad line between
Salonki and Monastir, an important
means Of communication for the en-
tente allies 1t is forty-five miles west
of Saloniki. Ft. Little Karaburun is
on the Gulf Of Saloniki, about ten
miles south of the city.

delays and discomfitures which most
of the Illinois troops experienced in
leaving Springfield for the concentra.
ton camps at the border last June
were repeated in the departure Of the
first Illinois infantry for Springfield
early today
Although the regiment was ready to

this morning.
The militiamen are inclined to blame
the railroads for the delay.
