He claims the king told him during a secret night meeting on May 4 last, in the| stadium, in the presence of several officers, that M. Vgnizelos declared to him he would do s0. Alexander at the same time, M. Viachos states. de clared he merely was acting as the agent of Constantine. The Kathimerini appears to be de- cidedly unfriendly to M. Venizelos, whose return to power is predicted in various quarters where, it is asserted, M. Venizelos never confided his plans to any one. Nicholas Stratos, former minister of marine, in a statement tending to confirm M. Vlachos' asser- tions, states that two days after the elections an attempt was made by Venizelists to get the Greek flcet to secede. tween Santiago and Arica. SANTIAGO, Chile, December 31.— The recent decision of the maritime organizations of Arica to decline to unload wines and liquors has led to to an exchange of communications between Jorge Matte, the foreign minister, and the governor of Ari: The governor.asked instruction to how to proceed in view of the fact as ing to unload aleoholic heverages. The foreign minister replicd that the gov- ernor would take steps to require the disembarkation of all commodities in transit fo Bolivia, since the commer- cial treaties with that country must be respected.
