The House of Deputies of the General Conven tion of the Protestant Episcopal Church today voted to eliminate the special prayers for the President and PART OF ATHENS; II Angry Mobs Parade the Streets of Capital of Greece "TOUCH AND GO" SITUATION HAS BEEN CREATED King Comes In Haste and Addresses Loyal Unshipped Navvies THENS, Monday, Oct. 16 (Via London, Oct.

17)-t-Marine from the ships of the Entente Power to the number of about a thousand have been landed at Piraeus and have occupied the railway station at Piraeus and several buildings in Athens. Immediately this became known the streets of Athens swarmed with Greeks frantically cheering King Constantma and chanting the Greek national anthem. Great crowds marched through the streets, thousands gathering In the neighborhood of the postoffice square. The war minister, General Dracos, ordered out, Greek troops and marines to guard every approach to the square in order to prevent any clash between Greek civilians and the French, who occupied that section, and drawing a complete cordon about the French and taking all precautions to avoid any incident or accident capable of startingf strife. It is impossible to predict whether trouble can be prevented.

The Greek Government Is fully alive to the fact that Greece's fate hangs on the prevention of further measures on the part of the French commander. Earlier in the day a review by King Constantine of the sailors belonging to the vessels of the Greek navy which were taken possession' of by the Entente Allies, was made the occasion of an immense royalist demonstration, crowds parading the streets carrying life-sized portraits of the sovereign and wildly cheering for the Admiral Damianos, minister of marine, read an order of the day. praising the loyalty of the sailors and complimenting them on their conduct under mo3t trying circumstances. After- the ceremony the King as sembled the officers around him and addressed them personally, expressing pride that they had scorned offers of money and honors and had remained faithful to their oath and to their country. He gave his word that he would stand by them to the end against whatever consequences their loyalty might entail.

The British legation explains that the landing of marines at Athens and Pireus was mainly intended to reinforce the police. It is generally thought however, that this action was taken to prevent demonstrations like those of this morning (Monday). King Con Plays the Game The King issued the following order of the day: "Officers and sailors: In these hours when stricken and with bleeding hearts 1 n.tl,.v. i upuii wiiiun juu urougm me news or the freeing of our liberated brothers. You came with tortured hearts and eyes wet with tears, every man faithful to his oath, to the side of your King.

"I thank you and congratulate you, oh. my faithful sailors! I thank you not only as King and chief of the fleet, but as the representative of the Fath erland you love so much, to which you have given so much, for which you are ready to give and suffer all. "May our hopes soon be realized and may the hour soon come when you will be able to return to your ships. "The holy ikons that have protected you in the past will protect you in the future, and the glorious flag, once more caught by the winds of the Greek seas, will bring hope and consolation wherever Greek hearts beat for nation and King." Greek Anger Flames LONDON. Oct.

18 A Reuter's dispatch from Athens says: "The situation appears to be dangerous. There have been royalist demonstrations in the streets. Admiral du Fournet. commander of the Entente Allied fleet in the Mediterranean, was hissed and a detachment of French sailors was driven back by a hostile crowd. "A procession of some 4.000 malcontents carrying Greek and American flags stopped outside the American legation, protested against the landing of foreign marines and demanded the protection, of the American minister, who was absent.

"The demonstrators then paraded the streets, singing the Greek national anthem." Allies Take Over Balance of Fleet LONDON, Oct. 17 The Allies have taken over the Greek battleship Kil-kis (formerly the United States battleship Idaho), Lemois (formerly the IT. S. S. Mississippi) and the Averoff, says Reuter's Athens correspondent.

Allied crews were put on board the battleships, the correspondent says, and the Greek crews were landed and sent to Athens. On October 11, the Allies took over the entire Greek fleet except the Kil-kis, Lemnos and Averoff. This measure, it was explained unofficially, was intended to insure the safety of the fleet, as fears had been aroused of a (Continued on Page 3, Cot.

Teutons Take Russian Trenches Continuing their violent offensive in Galacia, the Austro-Germans, according to both Berlin and Vienna, have taken trenches over a front over one and a quarter miles from the Russians and made prisoner thirty officers and 1.900 men.

In the southern Carpathians, near Dorna Watra, additional heights have been taken from Russians by the Teutonic Allies. In Transylvania the Roumanians fighting near the border passes continue tenaciously to hold back the Austro-Germans almost everywhere. In the Uzul Valley they have driven the invaders back across the Roumanian border.

German Official Statement BERLIN 1 (Via London), Oct. 17 The Russians have suffered a heavy defeat in Galicia, the War Office announced today.

House of Lords today. In reply to a question concerning the attitude of -the United States toward British patrols, Viscount Grey said that the United States admitted he British ships were not exceeding their legal rights under international law, but that the American Government complained of their presence on the ground of the irritation which the continued presence of belligerent warships off the coast of the United States naturally caused a neutral country.

He declared that the United States had requested Great Britain emphatically not to patrol off its coast and said that instructions were sent to the British ships there to avoid any unnecessary irritation and to comply as far as possible with the American request.

ICLAIM CHICAGO POLICE TO PAY THEM TRIBUTE UNPLEASANT STATEMENTS ARE BROUGHT OUT AT HEARING THERE Mayor Thompson, Who Is a Witness, Tells of Restoration of Saloon Licenses HICAGO, Ot. 17 Mayor Thomp- I son testified today that he was guided largely by the recommen- dations of Chief of Police Healey In revoking and in restoring saloon 11 censes.

7 COMPEL UNFORTUNATES DOrvinoc services. As it is now in the prayer book, the morning prayer asks for the President the boon "in health and property long to live' and that he finally may attain everlasting joy and felicity. The new prayer as adopted for both services, while asking that the President "and all others in authority" be given "the wisdom and strength to know and do Thy will" makes no reference to long life, health, prosperity or eternal felicity. The house also voted, despite vigorous protests, to omit the words "the governor of this State" from the evening prayer, it being argued "that all others in authority" included the governor. The change, adopted at the suggestion of the Commission on Prayer Book, must be approved by the next General Convention.

Rev. Leighton Parks of New York, supporting the change, said the present prayer in the morning service was an adaption of the prayer for the King in the prayer book of the Church of England, and that it was. trivial to pray for the health, prosperity and long life of the President. Rosell Page of Beaver Dam, a brother of Ambassador Thomas Nelson Page, objected to the change. He contended that the rrayer was not trivial.

The house of deputies spent the day reading and discussing the proposed changes in the Book of Common Prayer, as recommended by the commission appointed at the last general convention. The house ot bishops in secret session also spent the day ordering the proposed changes.
