THE BALKANS.
CONSTANTINE COMPLETELY EUCHRED.
THE PASSIONATE KING HELPLESS.
(“TIMES” AND “SYDNEIt SUN” SERVICE.] (Received 27, 9 a.m.) London, June 26. The “Echo de Paris” states that M. Skouloudis, the ex-Premier, asked the Austro-German Ministers for assistance against the Allies. Their assistance he found was impossible and he told King Constantine that resistance was out of the question. The King flew in a passiofe, but realised he was helpless.
VON SCHENCK’S POOR SPIRIT.
Athens is quiet.
Von Schenck’s last resource was to bribe boys who were engaged in the distribution of the Allies’ note in streets to throw the bundles into the gutters.
PRESS VIEWS.
Venezelist newspapers foresee a new era for Greece.
The pro-German press is chagrined. They accuse officials of stupidity and urge the Greeks not to vote at the election.
The Paris press claims that it is the most important victory that French diplomacy has yet scored.
VENEZELOS CONFIDENT.
M. Yenezelos, interviewed by Mr. Jeffries, the "Daily Mail’s” Athens correspondent, - said the Allied note was the only possible solution of the Greek question. The Zaimis Cabinet can be relied upon to instantly end friction.
M. Venezelos intends to return to Parliament.
