TRANSPORT OF SERBIANS.

REASONS FOIS ALLIES' ACTION,

GREECE'S NEGLIGENCE

Athens, April 16

The British, Minister (Sir Francis Elliot) on being interviewed, said that had Greece properly watched her own waters and the coast, the need for transporting Serbian troops over Greek railways would not have arisen.

Sir Francis Elilott emphasised that the transport of Serbians across Greece was due exclusively to the submarine danger. The sovereign rights of Greece were in no wise prejudiced.
