C-autislten and M.Z. Gable Association.', ((Received November 7, 1125 a.m.) ATHENS, Nov. 6. The ex-Queen SophiaPs correspondence is incomplete, as wireless telegrams are missing. Sophia described the bloody events m Athens, on December Ist as a > splendid victory over the four great Powers, asking when the German and Bulgar forces would be sufficiently reinforced to take the offensive against the Entente. The Kaiser leplied urging King Constantine to attack Sarrail.
The Entente's blockade followed. The Queen telegraphed to the Kaiser, saying "tliere were no food and munitions to enable Constantine to attaak Sarrail, and ••again imploring him to hasten t& the Greeks' aaatstanoe.
The Kaiser replied with a blank re-
fusal. , When the Crown Council met at Athens and was finally forced to accept the Entente's ultimatum, Queen Sophia telegraphed to the Kaiser that the Allies were infamous swine.
The telegrams will be used at the impeachment of the Gounaris, Swouloudis, and Lambros Cabinet*.
