He evaded the newspaper men by announcing that his departure had been post- poned. The®caution with which’the depar- ture of M. Venizelos was surrounded as explained by his friends was due to the fact that bitter animosities “roused by the interior political troubles in Greece have not yet been appeased. Venizelos feels that there is a formidable minority, if not an actual majority, egainst him in Greece at the present moment. His friends are skeptical as to the Success of any ‘political action he may undertake in Athens. It is pointed out that if he advocates maintenance of the royalist regime, which he is known to favor, he wil! antagonize the most violent elements of the country. : f On tha other hand there fs much doubt, in the opinion of these ob- servers as to whether the result of the recent elections should be taken as a fair expression of public opinion in favor of a republic. “ pene ar U.S. CRUISER IS ORDERED TO HONDURAS WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.—The armored cruiser Rochester, flagship of the United States special service squadron in central and South American Waters, has been sent to Port Of Amapala, Honduras, and will remain in that vicinity until the Present disturbances in Honduras nd Southern Mexico have quieted.
