fed before the enemy after disobeying
the orders Of his superior.

he had anything % say, replied he had
not. A. u-ual in courts martial. the
prisoner left the court before delivery
Of the verdict, and his counsel. Nicholas
Damaskinos, displayed visible anxiety
as to whether he had saved his royal
clients head.
Princes Wife Greatly Worried
Prince Andrews wife. who was Prin-
cess Alice Of Baltenburg, also was
greatly worried. She has spent sleep
less nights since his arrest and ar
rived in Athens only a few days ago.
She had been allowed 20 visit the
prince several times.
The courts deliberations on the ver-
dict lasted nearly three hours and the
sentence came as a relief when the
worst was fenrcd. During the trial
interest increased and when the YER
diet was delivered the House Of Par
lament was crowded 10 fnh capacity.
The military element particularly was
conspicuous, but there were many rep
resentatives Of society present.
On the witness stand Prince Andrew
told the president Of the court that
according TO his orders the second
army before attacking had 20 await
instructions from the Sd Army Corps.

Colonel sariynnis testified that In

replied an attack 70 the north was i'm
possible. owing 20 the strong enemy
defenses. whereupon the commander
in-ehief ordered the chief Of stan Of
the I'd Corps replaced.
Sariynnis added n Andrew had car
ried out the order the battle Of Ssn-
0nrlus would probably have been won.
he added the prince threatened 70
resign IL the commander-in-ehief in

vigorously supported Andrews action.
He asserted PapoulAss orders were
virtually contradictory, and denied the
accused had ever refused 70 carry out
orders. Major Skilakaki made a sim
liar statement, adding Prince Andrew
was a splendid disciplinarian. Counsell
Dameskinos begged the judges "as good
soldiers" 70 adjudge the accused hS
they would any other soldier.
The prince read his defense. which
obviously had been prepared for him.
He pleaded extenuating circumstances

he was only a fgurehead and occupied
his position as chief Of an army corps
