Santa Fe Plans Emergency Ser
vice, Beginning Monday.
Passengers and Property viii
Be Amply Protected.

The first step planned By Kansas
railroads, if the trainmen walk out
Monday morning, is to furnish trans
pcrtation for foodstuffs, adequate to
prevent any serious shortage. That
was officially announced in railroad
circles today. Foodstuffs and similar
commodities will be given preference
n transportation over other freight.
Monday morning the Santa Fe, it is
announced. will be ready to run one
train, a combination, each way over
all of it's twenty-three divisions. That
is the program for the first Gay of the
strike. The day following an increase
III the number of trains will be made
and each day will be followed by ad-
ditional trains.
All such trains. it is assumed, will
be amply protected as will other prop
erty. That will be done by employees
of the road. When transportation for
an adequate food supply is established
the other freight will receive consid-
Grafton.
Connections at division points will
not be assured, however.
1t was explained by operating off
cials that men had been hired and
equipment was ready for the emer-

ALLIES LAND NEAR ATHENS

London, Aug. 31.-The Greek gov
ernment has been thrown into chaos
by the resignation of Premier Zaimis
while rumors are in circulation that
King Constantine has fled, says an
Athens dispatch today. The premier,
who became head of the Greek cabi-
net on June %, resigned because of
Rumania's entrance into the war. the
dispatch said. He informed King
Constantine two weeks ago that he
would not attempt to direct the af-
fairs of government when the Balkan
situation was made more complicated
by a declaration of war from Ru-
mania.
Reports that King Constantine has
fled his capital and taken refuge with
German escort of Uhlans at Larissa.
80 miles north of Athens, have not
heen confirmed The report was first
telegraphed to London by the official
British press representative with the
allied forces at Saloniki, who tele-
graphed also a report that the allies
landed strong force at Piraeus, eight
miles from Athens, which was en-
gagged by a Greek army. Several
Greek princes have fallen, the dis
patch said.
To Join Allies in War.
Earlier dispatches from Athens said
that the French and British ministers
had made several unsuccessful at
tempts to obtain an audience with
King Constantine since the Rumanian
declaration of war
The fall of the Zaimis neutrality
cabinet may mean the immediate ele-
walton of former Premier Venizelos to
the head of the Greek government and
a declaration of war on the Central
Powers, it is believed here.
Greece to Abandon Neutrality.
Athens. Aug. 80, via London, Aug.
31.-Rapid developments in the diplo-

will have abandoned the policy of

Can't Confirm Kings Flight
London, Aug. 31-No confirmation
of the reported flight of King Con-
stantine from Athens to Larissa has
been received in official circles here
which considers it highly improbable.
