25).-The Greek government is said ON
the best authority to have telegraphed
definite proposals to the entente capt.
tails which, If accepted. will mean
Greece's entry into the war. If the
uncertainty of the relations between
Greece and the entente continues it is
regarded as not improbable that Greece
may declare war on Bulgaria on her
account. Semiofficial efforts Of the
cabinet to obtain from the entente
ministers here a statement as to the
desire Of the allied governments have
been fruitless. The ministers were
given to understand that as many as
three members of the Greek cabinet
were ready to resign If the entente
wished. The sole reply was that in
struction had not been received.
London. Sept. 25.-After saying .ha.

purposes are openly guarded. and the

Paris. Sept. 25.-Former Premier
Nenizelos, of Greece, in an interview
cabled from Athens to the Petit Jour
nal, declares that the Greeks must de-
fend their national interests regardless
of the government. NJ. Vcnizelos is
quoted as saying: although Rumania
entered the struggle. the court power
which governs us seems to persist in
the policy of what it calls neutrality.
This policy is persisted i'm even after
the shameful Kavala incident. You ask
me what the future will bring. I am not
in the position to answer. but certainly
something must be attempted, if Greece
does not wish to die.
What was done at Saloniki, though
tmprovised and precipitate, and recent
manifestations in the islands of the
archipelago, show that everyone re-
