Ultimatum Comprehensive.

Details of the demands made on the
Greek government by Admiral dArtlse
du Fournet. commander of the allied
naval forces, show that the ultimatum
was much more comprehensive than
was understood at first
In addition to her feet. Greece was
required to permit allied control of all
material for naval operations as well
an the mails, telegraphs and railroads.
The ultimatum set forth that such con-
troll was necessary in order to render
impossible the use of the navy, rail-
roads and so forth to the detrim ent
Of the allies.
Admiral du Fournet gave the Greek
government until l o'clock Wednesday
afternoon to comply with his demands,
and stated that failure to do SO would
result in his taking the necessary steps

Limit OF Concessions.

While the form in which the propos-
ais We're made is unacceptable and the
question of Bulgarian occupation OF
Greek soil is considered purely Il Greek
matter in which the entente is not con
cerned, nevertheless should Greece vol
unfairly abandon neutrality, declare
war on Bulgaria and decree a genera
mobilization the entente will be dis
posed to furnish every assistance in the
campaign and to give other materiai
proofs of benevolent interest in the
warfare Of Greece. It is understood
however, that these diplomatic assur-
ances are not to interfere in any way
with the instructions already given the
admiral OF the allied fleets to assure
by means of all necessary measures the
safety Of the allied armies in the east
Among entente diplomats this is be-
lieved to be the limit of concessions
which the allies are prepared to make
to facilitate the entry of Greece into
the war.

Disturbances Feared.

It is explained that the dispatch of
artillery and ammunition to the in
terror, the movements of Greek ships
and the continued activity Of the re-
servist leagues aroused fears of a dis
turbance of order at points where the
allies war vessels are anchored. and
also endanger the security of the allied
troops on the Balkan front.
Vice Admiral du Fournet demanded
the disarIning of the kilkts, Lemnos
and Averoff, and the dismantling of the
iortS on the SeacOast, while the two
forts conlunandin the fleets moorings
were to be made over to the admiral.
Control of certain points also must be
placed in the hands of the Anglo Brit
ish authorities.
In addition to the disarming of the
warships named. their crews are to be
reduced to one-third the regular COM
plement.
Size of Greek Navy.
The Greek navy consists of five bat
tleships-the Kilkis, Lemnos, Psara,
Spetsai and Hydra: one armored cruis-
Basileus Georgios. the cruisers He'll
and Nauarchos Miaulis, ten gunboats,
seventeen torpedo boat destroyers nine
torpedo boats. three submarines and
several transports and other craft. The
Greek naval force has been estimated
at 1900 officers and men.

President Wilson, is the result of a reso-
luton introduced by the delegate of the

convention of the American Federation of
Labor in San Francisco, in November of
last year.

result in an increased efficiency of sery-
