EXPLANATION OF THE GREEK MOBILISATION.
LONDON, Sept. 50. In the House of Lords, po-rd St. David suggested a personal British mission with a view to the solution of the 'Balkans problem. Lord Crewe replied that it was immaterial to Britain who occupied particular districts and she only desired boundaries to be drawn on racial and national lines. If the Entente's Foreign Ministers could confer, the chances of a solution were greater. He hoped the Balkan States would take heart from Sir Edward Grey's grave words. While Bulgaria remained unaggressive the relations between England and Buigaria would not be impaired. Dr Dillon reports from Rome that the Greek mobzilisation merely connotes M. Venizelos' victory over the Germanophile current, when it was expected to sweep him off' his feet. The agr^ment between King Constantine and M. Venizelos is an unpleasant surprise for the Germans. A high authority assured Dr Dillon that if the Quadruple Entente despatched a substantial force it would have a beneficial effect on the Balkans position. Rome reports that largo quantities of munitions are reaching Roumania, via Salonika, and the Black Sea.
