Dictator May
Be Called to
Creciian Helm,
Coup d'Etat by Constantine
Predicted as Result of
Disaster in Asia Minor;
To Back Big Thrace Army
Metaxas Probable Choice
VenizeIos Faction Increas-
ing, but Will Seek Only
Ca abinet Representation

ATHENS, Sept. "a (By The Asso-
ciated Press ).-Athens is likely to be
the scene of important political events
as a result of the military disaster in
Asia Miner, according to declarations
by influential Greeks. A coup d'etat
is mentioned as possibility by which
King Constantine will summon a dis
tinguished leader. probably General
Metaxas, to conduct Affairs of state
as Premier, or even as q sort OF die
tator, in an effort to rally the people
about the existing regime and espe-
cially to support sending a powerful
army int Thrace to check the Turkish
invasion.
Constantine is described as unde-
cided about his program, but it is
generally agreed that the present
Cabinet cannot long endure. The peo-
pie are said to be on the point of de-
manding a change in government, with
vigorous leaders who are capable Of
uniting and inspiring the patriotism
of The nation. They insist on the
right of saving Thrace, with its rich
wheat fields SO necessary to the future
prosperity Of Greece.
Metaxas Prominent in Balkan War
General Metaxas was prominent in
the Balkan War but never held politi-
cal Office. 1t is evident that Greece
wishes to go to the peace conference
with strong hand, and the presence
of u powerful army in Thrace will give
her new important cards.
The internal political situation is
difficult because partisans of Venize-
los have increased since the military
reverses in Asia Minor. The Metaxas
movement, however, is characterized by
his friends as embodying 4 conciliatory
attempt to inspire cooperation b.
tween the followers of the King ana
Venizelos.
This program would not include the
return of Venizelos to power in Greece
but would mean the naming of some
Of his supporters to the Cabinet OF
diplomatic posts abroad Under the
constitution the King OF Greece, in the
event of his ministry's resignation
shall consult with the leaders of the
National Assembly concerning sue
cession. The adherents of Gounaris
are strongest, but Gounaris. as
former Premier during the Asia Minor
campaign which the people deplore, il
said to be impossible.
Venizeios Strong Factor
The supporters of Venizelos are mex;
in power, but Constantine feels that
venizelos cabinet would displease tnt

One thousand Elks who spent yes
terday at Duer's Casino, Whitestone
Landing, Queens, at the annual clam
bake of Hoboken Lodge, "a, found
armed sailors guarding the gangplank
of their chartered sidewheel steamer
Pocahontas when they tried to board
the boat to return home last night.
Federal revenue agents had boarded
it and confscated what they said was
whisky, gin and brandy valued at $500.
While the Pocahontas was docked at
Whitestone Landing the revenue cut
ter Hahn crept alongside and the
agents clambered up the side of the
steamer and took charge. The Elks,
meanwhile, were enjoying their clam
bake and the baseball games and ath-
letic events held in connection with it.
After the liquor had been removed
from the steamer to the cutter the
sailor guards were taken away and the
Elks were permitted to go aboard.
The revenue agents say that they

left aboard the Pocahontas fifty half
barrels Of what they thought was real,
old-fashioned beer.
There was another delay for the
homeward bound Elks. The steamer,
which was due to leave at 7 o'clock,
had been held up half an hour by the
Federal agents. Then it was discov-
cred that she was fast aground 1t
was first reported that she would not
get off until midnight, but at 1880
o'clock the steamer was able to pro-
ceed down the East River. In the wake
of the Pocahontas was the Hahn, which
followed her all the way to the Hobo
ken pier.
the revenue agents appealed to the
Flushing police to aid them in keep
ing the Elks from boarding the
steamer until the stock of liquor had
been taken off. A sergeant, two de-
tectives and six patrolmen answered
the call, but their services were not
required. No arrests were made.

Policeman Holds Mob at Bay
And Saves Murder Suspect

As soon as he could slip the hand
cuffs on Pisano he went on TO the
house from which he had seen the
prisoner run to the street. In the hall
way lay the body of francesca Somms,
n laborer who lived in tho tenement,
shot through the heart. Dowling suni-
moned an ambulance from Long Island
College Hospital and then started for
the station house with Pisano.
A shout went up from the crowd out
side as he stepped through the door
way, demanding taat he turn the pris-
oner ever to them. Seyeral shots were
fred, and ,Dowling ducked back inside
and waited for the reserves.
At the Hamilton Avenue station Pi-
sano admitted that he lad gr,tdge
against Somma, charging that the lat

District Attorney Reuben Wilson,

The reserves of the Hamilton Ave
nue. station in Brooklyn were rushed
to the house at % President Street
about 10 o'clock last night. when word
was telephoned that a crow& of 200
Italians was trying to take a3priscner
away from Patrolman Thomas Bowling
and had begun shooting into the air
to show that it meant business. The
policeman had pulled his captive in
doors at the first shot and had locked
himself in. but the hcsiegers had be-
come so bold by the time that the re-
Inducements arrived that it took sew
eral minutes to clear passage
through them.
Dowling had run toward the house
at the sound Of two shots and rounded
the corner in time to see Vincenzo
Pisano, proprietor of a coffee house at
,15 Bergen Street, racing toward him
with revolver in his hand. The pa
trolman knocked the weapon to. the
ground with blow Of his nightstick

Audience Alarmed as
Six Fight i'm Theater
LOO Patrons of Delaney St.
Film House Fear Riot;
Police Arrest Two

A fight between six patrons Of Loew's
Delaney Street Theater, 142 Delaney
Street, halted the performance last
night and brought to their feet LOO
spectators who feared that riot was
taking place.
Beginning with mild argument, the
principals raised their voices, swore at
each other and then began to use their
fists. B. Mills, manager Of the theater,
tried in vain to demonstrate with che
men. Many persons started toward the
doors, and Mills ran down the center
aisle urging patrons to keep their
seats. He then directed the film oper-
ator to stop the feature picture and
the house electricians to turn on the
lights.
Meanwhile, two special officers at
tached to the theater took hand in
the fight and collared two of the par
ticipants A squad of detectives and
patrolmen from the Clinton Street sta
tion arrived soon afterward and ar
rested the two men. The others disap-
peared in the crowd and the perform
ance was resumed.
