GREECE SETS
insult FREE
Authorities Agree to Allow
Magnate to Sail in
Egypt Again.
By United Press


ATHENS, March 1.-THE Greek
government, surrendering to the
amazing resistance of Samuel In
sull, fugitive Chicago fnancier,
against efforts to deport him to
America, agreed today to give him
his travelling papers and let him
sail away on the steamer Maiotis.
The governments decision in a
complicated international situation
was materially influenced by a
strong public opinion which had
viewed insults battles for liberty
with admiration
His last desperate attempt to
evade the deportation order when
he escaped a police guard and
dashed through the Mediterranean
on the Maiotis, only to be ordered
back to Greece by highly indignant
officials, brought the aged multi
millionaire further sympathy.
insult remained aboard IN e
Maiotis after his return to the har-
Dor of Piraeus, and will stay on
board, secluded, until the steamer
leaves the port tomorrow morning.
The Maiotis, hurrying back to the
harbor Of Piraeus after wireless
messages had flashed through the
air and a destroyer had been sent
in pursuit, brought the fugitive back
to Greek jurisdiction today.
A strong flotilla of naval craft,
headed by the patrol boat Paralos,
met the Maiotis at the entrance to
the port, and escorted it the re-
naming six miles to shore.
Excitement in the halbor was at
fever pitch, and strong patrols of
docks and officers of the harbor
master.
Meanwhile, the government ear
nestly debated what procedure to
follow in the complex case. One
group, fearful OF American opinion,
insisted that he should be turned
over to the United States officials.
The other, believing that Greece
had fulfilled its obligations, was
equally insistant that, so long as
insult left Greece, he should. be
permitted to make his own choice
of routes.

Spurred by the deathbed state
ment of Herbert Youngblood that
he had seen Dillinger here Thurs
day night, county, state and federal
peace officers set up an elaborate
road blockade in hopes they had
Dillinger enmeshed.
Passing hours, without sight of
the hunted va Ford sedan in the
sparsely settled district, added con-
firmation to theories that Dillinger
either had escaped the area before
the alarm or had never actually
been in the district.
Sheriff William L. Van Antwerp
directing activities with a bandaged
left arm from the bullet wound re-
ceived in yesterdays gun battle,
which resulted in the deaths OF
Youngblood and Under sheriff
Charles Cavanagh, theorized that
DilIinger sent the Negro here and
then double crossed him by circulat-
ing rumors of his presence, hoping
to attract police attention to this
region.
Crown Point 0nd.) officers joined
Sheriff Van Antwerp in this theory.

Invites in belief that Dillinger might
have fled the region before the trap
was set. Their operations today
centered on Detroit, where under

ton today. He was shot through
