 Promise to Greece
Any Reprisal To Hellenes, To Whatever Party They Be long, Will Be Pitilessly Re- pressed, Pledge Given.
(By Review Leased Wire).

ATHENS, June 16 (Via Lon don) M. Jonnart, the high com missioner representing France, Great Britain and Russia, who re- gently brought about the abdica- tion of King Constantine, has pub lished the following proclamation addressed to the Hellenes:
 Great Britain, France and Rus sia desired the independence, greatness and prosperity of Greece. They intend to defend the brave little land they have liberated against the united efforts of the Turks, Bulgarians and Germans. They are here to checkmate the maneuvers of the hereditary en- emies of the kingdom. They will put an end to the repeated vio- lations of the constitution, of treaties, and the deplorable in- trigues which led up-to the massa- cres of soldiers of the entente.
 "Hellenes, the hour of reconcil- iation has arrived. Your destinies are closely associated with those of the protecting powers, your ideals are the same as theirs, your hopes are identical. We appeal to your good sense and patriotism.
 To-day the blockade is raised. Any reprisal against Greeks, to whatever party they belong, will be pitilessly repressed. The lib erty and prosperity of every one will be safeguarded.
 This is a new era of peace and liberty which is opening before you. Know that, respectful of the national sovereignty, the protect ing powers have no intention of forcing upon the Greek people general mobilization.
 Long live Greece, united and free."

Peace Plot Barred.

PETROGRAD. June 16 (Via Lon- don)-Fresh attempts on the part of the Germans to conclude peace with Russia have been exposed, with the re- suit that the expulsion from Russia has been ordered of prominent So- cialist internationalist. a citizen of Switzerland, Robert Grimm.
 Two days ago the provisional gov ernment received from a reliable source a copy of dispatch addressed by Hoffman, member of the Swiss federal council. to Grimm. Apart from the separate peace offer contained in the. dispatch Hoffmann reported that Germany and her allies were ready to begin general and immediate peace negotiations if Russia's allies were willing.
 The provisional government appa- rently was informed that this dispatch had been handed to Grimm by the Swiss minister at Petrograd. The government requested the Socialist member of the cabinet, M. Tseretelli, and NJ. Skobeleff, to demand explan- ations from Grimm, who was their col league. inasmuch as though foreign CT he was beginning to play a promi- nent role in PetIograd as the mouth piece of the internationalist pacificist propaganda.
 An official statement issued today declares Grimm denied to the cabinet members that the Swiss minister had transmitted to him such a dispatch, denouncing the whole affair as clumsy German maneuver Grimm added that when at Berne and Stock holm he had refused to enter into any such negotiations and tbat as So- cialist he refused ro let himself be made the instrument of imperialist plans.
 The two Russian ministers reported to the cabinet that Grimm's explana- tion was unsatisfactory. Whereupon an immediate expulsion order was is sued.

NEW YORK. June 16.-A cable gram foresha6owing extensive mil itary operations by six of the Chi nese southern provinces against the government was received here today by the Chinese Nationalist League of New York. from its headquarters in Canton.
 It claims to represent the six provinces politically to favar China's entry into the war on the entente side. Southern troops al- ready are marching on Wu-Chang, according to the message.
 The message reads:
 The six Chinese provinces of Kwang-Tung, Kwang-Si, Kwei- Chow, Yunnan, Human and Hze- Chuen, have co-ordinated their plans for active resistance to the rebellion in Picking. and it is now certain that unless that rebellion is brought under control extensive military operations will ensue.
 Armies organized in all these provinces have sent emissaries ro Canton, who have settled on Gen eral Lu Yung-Ting, the successful leader of last years Yunnan re- bellion, which deposed President Yuan Shi Kai, as the leader against the armies of the north.
 Southern troops are already marching toward Wu-Charg. At a mass meeting of the citizens of Canton immediate mobilization and an increase of taxes for mill tary funds were decided upon and will shortly be passed by the pro vincial assembly and promulgated by the governor, General Chan Ping-Kwan.
 All of the southern leaders now gathered in Canton. represent fac tons in liberal China and assert they have united solely to pre- serve constitutional government under the government. They have issued an appeal to the allied gov ernments and to America not U loan money or support the north ern rebels and to refrain from in- tervention in China's struggle against "reactionary Prussianism."

RFEW YORK, June 16.-With the ar IVY rest today of 30 anarchists and IN the seizure of large quantities of
 anti-conscription literature, fed eral authorities believed they had made material progress in their efforts to stamp out an active propaganda in this city against compliance with the selective draft.
 The first step in the roundup was the arrest yesterday of Emma Gold man and Alexander .Berkman. who were held in s25.000 bail each today i on charges of conspiring to prevent the enforcement of the conscription act. They were unable to furnish bonds and were still in the Tombs to- night
 Anarchist friends and supporters of ' Miss Goldman and Berkman, who were unceremonlously ejected from the fed eral building when they attempted to deliver speeches to a crowd of en- lockers, played a prominent part in a serious clash between women riOter3 and the police soon after Miss Gold man and Berkman had been taken back to their cells.
 Ab5ut 800 women who marched from the east side to the city hall to present a petition to Mayor Mitchell protesting against the state military census. were returning to their homes after being told the mayor was not in his office. when they were stampeded by anar- chist .agitators. The women then re formed their ranks and started a see ond march upon the city hall crying. Down with the draft"
 As they approached city hall park they charged the police reserves with hatpins and fists. The police were forced back until additional reserves were summoned. Several women and some of the officers were injured. Three women were arrested.
 One hundred and fifty young men who were seized last night at anti conscription meetings for failure to register were released today on prom ises to comply with the law.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Japan has taken action similar to Great Brit ain in refusing to associate herself with the American action in asking the rival factions in China to compose their difficulties. it was said today at the state department. No reason was given for the action of either nation, but it is assumed that neither felt that the American action would be success full
 Japan is known to resent that the United States sent its note to China. feeling that it disregarded the special position Japan claims for herself there. The whole question, what little is be- ing divulged by the state department. seems to have arisen from a series of misunderstanding.

He said the present issue would be limited to S2.- COG. 100000 as previously announced. MT. McAdoo's announcement will result in pairing down hundreds of the larger subscriptions until the total reaches the $2.00O. 100000 limit How much will have to be taken from the amount the country offered to take was still an unknown quantity tonight.

 McAdoo's Statement
 MT McAdoo issued the following statement:
 "Allotments of Liberty Bonds will not be made in excess of the two bill lion dollars offered. I announced this on May 10, when the details of the loan was first published.
 q have aske dthe reserve banks to tabulate separately, and on supple mentary lists. the subscriptions re- ceived yesterday, June 15. after noon in order that l may be in position to consider. in making allotment of the two billion dollars of bonds, those ap- plications which. through no fault of the subscriber. were not recorded on time
 'It is impossible to foretell what decision will be reached in the mat ter or to determine the basis upon which allotments will be made until substantially definite returns have been received from the several feder- al reserve banks. The organizations of these banks, unusually efficient as they are. have been overwhelmed by the multitude of applications received at the last moment
 q shall avail myself of the right reserved in the circular offering the bonds, to allot in full applications for smaller amounts of bonds and to re- duce allotments on applications for larger amounts, as such action will be clearly in the public interest
 Thanks The Press.
 Mir. McAdoo today acknowledged with appreciation the work of the forces of publicity which aided in the Notation of the loan.
 ''The Liberty Loan campaign" he said, twas essentially one of education and without the generous and patriotic support of the press of the nation. the hope of those in charge that it would be popular loan would not have been realized The untiring efforts of the newspapers throughout the campaign were a constant inspiration to the var ious other groups of workers.
 "At time when news space was at premium, the Liberty Loan was featured at length. The foreign lan- guage presses in thirty languages gave daily proof of the undoubted loyalty of peoples of foreisn birth.
 q shall be most grateful to the press if this acknowledgement is giv- en wide publicity"
