GREEK kings EXILE

War Claims of Britain and

By the Associated Press.

by the Associated press.
LONDON, November 13.-Ministerial
circles in London are without definite
news of the uncertain political situa-
ton in Greece at the present moment
but they view with much anxiety the
unofficial reports that King George
country SO as to permit the establish
ment of a republic.
Great Britain. like the United
States. has financial claims against
Greece and it is felt that the procla-
nation of a republic amid such cha
otic conditions as now prevail would
make the payment of these claims
or even the interest on them, remote
The United States advanced to
Greece s15.000.O00 under the liberty
bond act" and the interest on this
amount to date totals almost another
million. While the London govern
ment, like that at Washington, has
withheld it's recognition of King
George, who inherited such a legacy
from the late King Constantine, 1t
has warmly indorsed the young mon
arch's neutrality throughout the fierce
party strife in Greece and his efforts
to re-establish his country in the
good opinion of the world.
1t is recognized that George has
been little more than harmless
adornment to the throne since his
fathers death, but it is felt he is
probably the one man acceptable 10
both the Venizelos and royalist par
ties, who could tide the country
through the ferocious political pat
ties and passions since the ruthless
killing of M. Gounaris and his nve
colleagues poisoned the whole ma
tional life.
Little hope is entertained that the
esta blishment of republic would
bring anything like peace or order
Venizelos himself, who Is said by OBJ
servers to be probably the only man
of sufficient caliber and popularity
to draw Greece out of her present
position, has said that any violent
change in the constitution would en-
tirely ALLEVIATE foreign sympathy. He
hopes that the question of repub-
lie will not be decided until the en-
tire population has had the oppor-
tunity of registering its opinion in
the general elections that have been
fixed for February IL, 1924.

2 ARLINGTON JAIL
FUG|TVES CAUGHT
Claim Woman Brought in Saw
Which Enabled Prisoners
to Escape.

Mystery surrounding the Jail deliv-
cry at Arlington county courthouse
last Wednesday night vanished today
following the recapture of two pris-
oners and the arrest for investigation
of two persons suspected of implica-
tion in the release of eleven prisoners.
James Baylor and Melvin Walker
were captured last night on the out
skirts of Baltimore and brought back
to the Arlington county jail by State
Policeman o. w. Welch. En- route,
Welch said, they made a complete
confession to him. telling OF a whole
sale plot to break open the jail on
the part of all prisoners behind the
bars -
Sawed All Afternoon.
Welch says that the men told him
that the nine hacksaws were snug
sled in on Tuesday last by Mrs. Earl
Blundon, wife of one of the pris-
oners. All afternoon Tuesday. the
story goes. the prisoners worked
steadily with the saws on the bars
and by Wednesday had reached the
stage where only a few twists and
turns were necessary to exchange
their cells for outside freedom.
Welch also declared that the men

his automobile to transfer nine from
the Jail to spots where they could
make a safe getaway. AS a result
Pickett and Mrs. Blundon were TAX,
en- into custody. The latter furnished
bond for appearance in court. while
the man was held in the Arlington
county jail for investigation.
Sheriff Clements, when asked of
these events. denied any knowledge
nf bav q a. nj oil
could not be reached this afternoon.
Think Khan Absolved.
The stories told by these men. how
ever. confirm the authorities Of
Arlington county in their theory that
the release was caused by friends of
some of the prisoners. and not, as
was hinted by the story of a woman
prisoner, by members Of any organ
alton or fraternity
The men told Welch in addition, he
said, that nine prisoners, having made
their getaway shortly after IL o'clock,
they, the remaining two who disap-
peared, left about an hour later. All
of the prisoners, it was stated, had
some knowledge of what was going
on inside the Jail during the arduous
task of silently saving sufficient bars
to make an escape.
The arrest of the two men in Balti-
more was caused by an attempt to
of the house of woman in a suburb
of that city. She noticed the two
colored boys attempting to make
away with the bread, raised an out
cry and pursued them. When they
were caught and questioned, they
said that they had escaped from Ar
lington and notified their captors that
Officer Welch would be a good man
to send for them. The result was
Welchs trip last night, the subse-
quent confession and the re-estab-
lishment in Jail of the two men. No
clues have been obtained, however,
of the whereabouts of the other nine
who escaped.

PLANS FOR DEEDS
OFFICE ARE READY
Drawings Also for Municipal
Court Building Prepared
for New Congress.

On the first day that Congress
meets there will be placed on the
Speakers desk plans for a new re-
corder Of deeds Office and municipal
court building. The plans have been
prepared by the architect of the Capt.
tol, David Lynn. in consultation with
the Engineer Commissioner, Maj. J.
Franklin Bell, as directed in the last
District of Columbia appropriation
bill
This building is to be erected on the
4th street side of the recently re-
modelled District Supreme Court
building to correspond INTELLECTUALLY
with the new Court of Appeals build
ing on the 5th street side. The plans
estimate the cost at $62s.32o.
This new structure will be one Of
the few architecturally perfect speci-
mems Of the Georgian or Colonial
combined with the Ionic portico In
the western world. The Treasury De-
partment has paid a belated tribute to
the worthiness of this style of archi-
lecture by selecting replicas of the
in recent federal buildings in the
south.
Support in Congress.
While Congress has not yet made
appropriation for the new building.
members of both houses are Informed
regarding the desperate need for
proper housing of the recorder of
deeds office and for the increasing
business of the Municipal Court, the
quarters of which now are a dis
grace to the National Capital ac-
cording to opinion expressed on the
floor of Congress by members who
had made a personal inspection.
The appropriations committee is
predisposed to allocate funds for the
erection of this building on the
ground that 1t will be An actual saw
ing rather than an increased burden
upon the taxpayers. besides furnish
ing adequate and suitable quarters
for the transaction of important busi-
ness in the Capital.
The strong sentiment of the legal
profession and of civic leaders In
favor of the prompt erection of this
building has been officially registered
before the House committee on pub
lie buildings and grounds and before
the appropriations committee 1t is
the belief Of many members of Con-
gress now in Washington that IA
vorable action will be taken on the
recommendations of the architect of
the Capitol.

The provision in the District ap-
preparation bill of last year was as
follows:
"The architect of the Capitol, in
collaboration with the Commissioners
Of the District of Columbus, shall

BY the Associated Press.
BRUSSELS, November 13.-William
HohenZollern, former Emperor of
Germany, was again q figure COM
manding world attention today. as
the governments of the powers made
efforts to learn more of his reported
plans for returning to the fatherland
Equipped with passports for him
self and members of his suite. he is
said by a local newspaper to be pre-
pared to establish either himself or
his son. former Crown Prince Fred
erick william, on the throne of the
empire on December 4.
There was no official confirma ton
of the activities at Doom House nor
was Williams destination in Germany
suggested. Private messages from
the little Dutch village. however. said
that courier yesterday delivered
there twelve passports permitting the
ex-kaiser and his encourage to re-
enter the fatherland after their five
years in exile. Cipher messages are
said to have been received at the
castle during the day. 1t is pointed
out here that William has been keep
ing in close touch with the monarch
lists in Germany and that he has
hoped for some time that the situa-
tfon in the fatherland would shape
itself favorably for his return. 1t is
also believed that he would regard
Holland as perhaps an insecure place
of refuge, in view of the protest
lodged by the powers and the return
of Frederick William.

DUTCH MAY FORBID.
London Is Assured Kaiser Will Not
Be Permitted to Go.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON. November '13.-British
government officials reiterated today
that they were entirely satisfied with
the adequacy of the assurances given
by Holland that ex-Emperor William
would not be allowed to leave Dutch
custody.
They say that up to the moment
they have no reason to suppose the
former war lord proposes to decamp.
and IL he has such an intention they
are confident the Dutch government
will Illustrate the attempt.
No new representations, therefore,
have been made to Holland.
Officials are inclined to doubt the
Brussels newspaper adyices to the eff
feet that passports have been handed
the eX-emperor. They are of the opin-
ion that the recent visit of DR.. Kan
of the Dutch ministry of the interior
to Doom was for the purpose of eau
tioning the former war lord that the
allies would not view his departure
for Holland with the same eQuantm-
ity as that of his son.
In view of the fact that the ex-
kaiser is specifically mentioned in the
treaty of Versailles as the chief war
criminal and that the Dutch govern
ment already has given the allies an
understanding that he would not be al
lowed to return to Germany, the Brit
Ysh diplomats are confident that Hol-
land will not incur the diSpleasure of
the allies by allowing the ex-emperor
to slip through her hands.

25 WHISKY BANDITS
IN BALTIMORE RAID
Bind Six Guards at DistiIIery
and Escape With Five
Trucks of Loot.
By the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, Md, November 13-
Armed whisky bandits numbering
about twenty-five early today raided
Gwynnbrook distillery at Gwynbrook,
suburb of Baltimore, and are re-
ported to have secured about five
large truckloads of whisky. State
police, city police and police of Balti-
more county, in which the distillery
is located, have formed a Gordon on
important roads leading from Balti-
more to try to apprehend the men.
Four government guards at the dis
tillery were overpowered. The men
first tied up two guards on the out
side of the distillery and, gaining
entrance, tied up the other two. All
four were then handcuffed together
in a circle.
The men gained entrance to the
place about 1880 o'clock and it was
after 3 o'clock before they finished
loading and started away. The hand
cuffed guards made their way to
the home of a neighbor and gave the
alarm. Two large touring cars are
said to have accompanied the trucks
Huge Store Transferred.
While this robbery was going on
government agents were escorting

coming from the Horsey distillery
near Frederick.
Fifteen armed guards in four big
touring cars are guarding this liquor.

a chance and raided the distillery in
