GREEK CABINET RESIGNS.
Evacuation of Asia Minor Likely
After Defeat.

By the Associated Press.
ATHENS. September S.-The evacua-
tion of Asia Minor by the Greeks. as
result of the successful offensive
against their army by the Turkish
nattonalists. is accepted here as a
foregone conclusion, although 1t has
not been announced officially.
Meanwhile the cabinet has resigned
as result of the Greek reverses and
new ministry is in process Of forma- :
tion. King Constantine having asked
former Premier Kaiogeropoulos to
get new cabinet together.
Evacuation Orders Likely.
Actual orders for the evacuation of
Asia Minor have not yet been given,
it is said. but Gen. Dousmanos. the
chief of staff. is studying the problem
SO as to carry out the maneuver
under the best Conditions possible.
The troops will probably be taken
to the Islands of Chios. Mytilene and
Samos in the Aegean sea, where. 1t
is expected. they will be demoblized
and disarmed, a part OF them being
sent to Thrace.
Greek Generals Captured.
A telephone message from the
Greek commander in the field says
that Gen. Trcoupis. who had been
appointed to the command. and Gen.

to join the Greek corps. at Alsshehr.
east Of Smyrna. The taking Of these
generals, with their STATS, WAS not
connected with the reported loss of
their army corps. according to seem.
ingly reliable information. this corps
eventually retreating in the direction
of Alashehr.
The third army corps, which suf-
fered the least from the nationalist
pressure. retreated toward Brusa. and
consequently doubt is cast upon the
reports that Brusa had been evacu-
atsd. That Brusa had been occupied
by the nationalists was denied here
today. and 1t was declared the third
corps had taken up its position there.
Refugees Arrive.
Refugees from Smyrna are already
arriving here. Eight hundred of
them were brought into Piraeus. the
port Of Athens. They were accom-
panied by number of functionaries
bringing the archives Of the Greek
high commissioner at Smyrna.
Gen. Hadjanestis, the deposed Greek
commander, has been given permis-
sion to remain abroad two months.
Gen. Polimenakos has been ap-
pointed commander-in- chief Of the
Greek forces In Asia Minor. follow
ing the capture Of Gen. Tricoupis.
Reports that King Constantine had

and paired. The bill is now In con-
ference for adjustment of the differ

soon as the anti-profiteering bill was
passed the Senate turned its attention
again to the Borah bill to create a
federal commission to study the coal

The coal commission bill was
amended SO as to provide for a sapa-

ted to report upon any organized re-

The commission is ordered to make
its report on the anthracite inquiry
not later than July l next year. which

CONSTANTINOPLE. September g.
The Greek administration OF Smyrna
ceased to function yesterday. Revolu-
tion within the city is imminent, ac-
cordins to reports.
1t Is feared that the revolt will be
accelerated by the enormous influx OF

discipline in the Greek army.
Conditions Of panic prevail at Brusa,
refugees are arriving in large num-
bers at Mundsa.
Armistice Likely.
Unable to extricate their army from

tary leaders. 1t is believed here, will
be obliged to accept any armistice
terms the victors may dictate.
The allied commissioners have re-
commended to Hamid Bey, representa-
tive Of the Kemalists here, that the
Angora government propose an armf-
stice to Athens.
A Greek communique states that
Gen. Tricoupis, the commander.in-
chief, was captured while attending

Of the general situation.
mo clearer demonstration could
be asked" the department said,
ito indicate the soundness of the
fundamental conditions underly-
ing the present business revival
than the persistence with which
commerce and industry have pro-
Gressed in the face Of recent Sc
rious obstacles. The extremely
serious labor difficulties through
which we are now passing would,
under many conditions. have COM
pletely demoralized business. In

There Is reason to suppose that
the economic losses occasioned by
the coal and railroad strikes will
make themselves felt for some
months to come. Disturbances of
this character affecting basic in
dustries cannot take place with
out having to be paid for in the
long run. 1t is possible that the
