Russell & Co.

The Russell Circuit Court convened
at jamestown last Monday, Judge j..
C. Carter on the bench The usual
court day crowd was in town and bust
ness fairly good during the day.
Judge Carter's instructions to the
grand jury covered all the phases of
criminal misdoings, and the jury went
to work in the afternoon. There was
some stock on the market, but very
little changed hands. There will
probably be business sufficient to keep
the Court in session ten days. Attor-
ney A. A. Huddleston is on hand,
ready to prosecute evil doors.

REAR ADMIRAL CARDALE
Is TO LEAVE GREECE

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
Athens, Greece, June lit is an
nounced that Rear Admiral Hubert
S. Cardale, the acting head of the
British naval mission in Greece and
at present the ranking officer of the
royal Helleni: navy on active service,
will soon relinquish his post and leave
Greece. He has been one of the most
prominent figures in Athens during
the war, for in his dual capacity as a
Britisher and an admiral of the Greek
navy he has been factor in quoting
many of the internal discussions in
this country, which, ever since the
war started, has been the scene of a
continual pulling and hauling of war;
ring interests.
One day Admiral Cardale has been
called upon to pronounce for the
Kings party" and again, on the next
day, to speak for the Venizelists, the
adherents of the popular statesman
who desired to see Greece take up
arms against the central powers. The
admiral appears to have been a ia
vorite of both King Constantine and
Venizelos. His relations with the
royal family are of long standing, be-
ginning with his service under the
personal command of the then Crown
Prince Constantine in the first Bal
kan war. Recently the king acted as
godfather to the admiraIs son, nam
ing the infant Constantine.
