CONSTANTINE LEAVES ATHENS
DEPosED GREEK MONARCH SAILS
FOR CORFU.
Ultimate Destination Is Not Given Out
mo Disturbance by Large
Crowds Assembled.

London, June 16.-A long series Of
belated dispatches from Athens con-
firm the reports that the abdication OF
King Constantine and his departure
from the Greek capital were unattend.
ed by any serious disturbance. There
was much excitement ana noise among
the former kings partisans and street
gatherings of the so-called reservist,
but no bloodshed or rioting.
Slips Away Unobserved.
Large crowds gathered about the
palace to witness the departure of the
fallen monarch but Constantine slip
ped through the garden and emerging
by little used gate jumped into a
waiting automobile and dashed at full
speed for point on the coast where
French destroyer awaited him. He
embarked with his wife and entire
family with the exception of Alexan-
der, for Corfu.
British War Vessels Waiting.
The dispatches say that at Corfu
the deposed monarch expected to
trans-ship to British war vessel, un-
less the royal yacht was available in
which case he would board the yacht
and sail under the escort of British
warships. The reports as to his ulti-
mate destination vary, some saying
Denmark and others Italy.
The day prior to Constantine's de.
parture Alexander took the oath of
fealty to the constitution. The crown
prince, Constantine and his wife were
absent from the ceremony.
1t is said that former Premier Gou.
naris and other pro-German partisans
probably will be Inferred at Malta.
