 Wife with venizelos
 With Venizelos. the aged "lion of Crete" veteran of a generation of European politics, went his wealthy wife-alieged to have been a prin- cipal packer of his revolt--and about 100 of his chief followers from his little "capital," including politicians, naval officers and civ ilians whom the government re- gards as chief instigators of the rebellion.
 Thousa nds of rebel soldiers were wandering the plains and hills of Macedonia and Thrace without leaders. while the armies of Gen George Condylis, to the west, and Cen Ghialistras, to the east, closed In on the ancient plain of Philippi. Gen Demctrios Camenos, rebel generalissimo on land, was in Bull garia, under orders to proceed to Sofia today for questioning, and the prospect of interment with hum dreds of his officers somewhere In central Bulgaria-safe, at least, from extradition and trial as the Bulgarian government annoupced it would not hand them over. Abandon DestrOycrs In their flight. the government announced, the rebels abandoned the destroyers Leon and Nireus, as we'll as the Psara, and boarded the Averoff to flee with Venizelos. There were indications that the crews of the Psara and other ships mutinied, or were believed ready to mutiny, us was the case on the cruiser minelayer Helle which sury rendered yesterday off the coast of Maced donia when the rebel cause collapsed there.
 Despite the Bulgarian govern- ment's statement, made by Premier Petko Zlateff, that Gen Camenos and his fellow officers, would not be surrendered to Greece, the gov- ernment requested their extradi- ton today. they were not political. but ordin- ary refugees, because they had tax en with them 100.000,O00 drach' mas ($95O,00O) in funds conhscat- ed for the rebel cause.
 The break in the rebellion, which came yesterday with the capture of Seres by the loyal western army under Condyiis, was followed by a general collapse whose apparent completeness surprised the govern ment.
