EVIDENCE OF GERMAN ESPIONAGE
THE ADJUSTMENT WITH THE ALLIES
LONDON, 4th September. The Morning Post's Athens correspondent, referring to the imposing nature of the naval demonstration at the Piraeus, says that other more important questions were being considered when the ' Fleet was ordered to the Piraeus, but these were satisfactorily settled, and therefore were not referred to in tlie Note. Several Germans and Greeks who have been enga-ged in espionage and the German propaganda work have already been arrested. As an example for the need of this action, it may be stated that the German Legation warned those who were in danger of arrest a week before the demonstration occurred. The Greek Government has decided, with the consent of tho Allies, to postpone the dissolution of Parliament and the elections. AUSTRIAN SPY ARRESTED.
