The council of Greek ministers has decided, in agree ment with King Constantine, upon mil itary co-operation with the Entente Powers, says a Reuter dispatch from Athens, dated Wednesday. ADVISES KING CONSTANTINE TO IMMEDIATELY DECLARE WAR Athens, Sept. 26, via London, Sept. 28. (delayed) King Constantine received this morning an exhaustive report from General Moschopoulos, chief of the general staff, detailing the chaos in the military organization of the country caused ty the departure of so many officers to join the Anglo-French allies, and advising the immediate dec laration of war by Greece, without waiting either the assistance 'or the insistence of the. Entente Powers, as the Only way to save the situation. Despite the profound popular belief that the country is facing the greatest crisis in it's history, calm expectancy reigns in Athens. The Venizelist morn ing papers publish declarations which the former Premier left prior to his. departure, in which he says the army he heads is not revolutionary but pure ly of national character and that he has no design upon the integrity of the actual government of the country, M. Venizelos declares that his course is the only way by which national unity may be preserved and that he will struggle for the salvation of Greece without the aid of the consti tuted government, if the government will not act.

Own Land in' America. Embassy Frankly Admits the Discus sions Will Be Taken Up Again With the United' States After the War Is Over. ; Washington, Sept. 27. Japan's pur, pose to renew, after the European war, her contention for the right of her people to emigrate to and own land in the United 'States, suggested in New York yesterday by Baron Yoshiro Sa katani, former finance minister in the Tokyo cabinet, was frankly admitted today at the Japanese embassy. Nego tiations . over these questions, which came to a deadlock two years ago, are not regarded by Japan as concluded, it was explained, but merely postponed while the larger issues of the war are being dealt. with. . The deadlock followed a long series of conferences between formeri-Secretary Bryan and Baron Chinda, then the Japanese ambassador, and an ex change of notes between the two gov ernments over the alien . land . legisla tion enacted by California. - After the State Department had pointed out that under its constitution the United States" government could do no more than seek to prevent such legislation and that persons affected by it had recourse to the Federal courts, Japan closed the exchanges with a note say ing her complaint had not been an swered and reserving "for the present further discussion of the issue." .There will be-no formal discussion of the subject by ths-embassy, at least until the arrival of the new ambassa dor. Dr. Araoro Sato, who is expected rt Washington in a tJw months. . .. The position of the Japanese govern TOeht,according to informal statements by embassy officials, still is that re strictions on immigration and land holding are not only defogaVory to her dignity, but are unjust under interna tional law in that they are discrimina tory against her in favor of other-nations.

TARIFF IS CHIEF Republican - - Nominee. . .Addresses Thousands! of Workers . at the Steel Plants in Pittsburg. BELIEVES PARTY RE-UNITED Speaks From Platform in Music Hall Upon Which Were Seated Both Republican and Progres sive Leaders. Pittsburg, Sept. - 27. Charles E. Hughes went through the big steel making district of Pittsburg today, ad dressed thousands of working men, re turned to the city tonight, and ended1 the first day. of his campaign in Penn sylvania with a speech, in the music hall of the Pittsburg exposition. The chief theme in all of Mr. Hughes' addresses too'ay was the protective tar iff. To an audience of thousands of workmen at the Homestead Steel Plant, he declared that present condi tions of prosperity" would not endure in the days when Europe would be at peace unless the United States should adopt a protective tariff. To an audience that Jammed the mu sic hall he repeated this statement to night. In iris night address he also dwelt at length upon his views on the Adamson bill, the administration's pol- icy toward Mexico, the Shipping bill and what he termed extravagant claims made by the administration for hav ing aided business. Mr. Hughes spoke from a platform upon which Were seated Republican and Progressive leaders who have op posed each other in. the state during the past four years. On his way here from Cleveland he was met and escort ed to this city by Senators Oliver and Penrose and William Flynn, the latter a former Progressive leader. These, with Alexander P. Moore, and other Progressive and Republican leaders, sat with him on the platform tonight. In his speech Mr. Hughes emphasized his belief that the Republican party was re-united. "The breach of recent years has been healed," he said, "and our nation al aims at this time are conceived lo be of such transcendent importance that we knew of no difference and are not allowing any former disagreement to impair our unity of effort."

CITY MUCH IN PROMINENCE News of the Reported Arrival Haa Relieved Fears for Safety of ' the Submarine. Berlin, via London, Sept. 27. The - Berlin newspapers today are acclaim- . ing enthusiastically the arrival of the German submarine Bremen at New London. The Connecticut town haa jumped to a point of prime interest, and the newspapershave found it nec essary to describe its situation by the. aid of maps. They are also dilating. on the history of the town. The news of the Bremen relieved the protracted, tension, which had growri intense as the expected arrival of the submarine was delayed from week to week. Apparently authentic rumor had been in circulation that the Brem en sailed early in August. Hence fears were entertained in some quar ters that something had gone wrong with her, and the report of her arri val has heen greeted by the newspa pers as paving the way for the estab lishment of a regular submarine ser vice between Germany and the United States and as answering the alleged taunt of Germany's enemies when the submarine Deutschland returned home from her voyage over seas; "You can't do it again." - - All the newspapers today print a' sketch of Captain Schwartzkopff, com mander of the Bremen, who was for a long , time in the service of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company. He served for years on the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse and distinguished himself in rescue work in the Hoboken pier fire in 1900. Captain Schwartz- . kopff was the first officer of the-'Prinz Friedrich Wilhelm when the war broke out. The steamer .was then at Spitz' bergen, on a Polar excursion, but suc ceeded in making a home port without encountering the British fleet. There have been many reports of ths expected arrival of the merchant sub-' V marine Bremen at various ports on the Atlantic coast recently, but up to the present she has not docked in any of them. The announcement of her arri- val printed in Berlin probably result ed from one of these many premature reports reaching the German capital. . New London, Baltimore and Norfolk have been reported as the destination of the Bremen.- Recently there has been much activity in New London by officials of the Eastern Forwarding Company, American agents for the German merchant submarines. A re port from Westerly, R. I., September 25, said a tug had left there to meet a German submarine which was on the way to New London. The Berlin dispatch apparently la confirmatory of the reports that the Bremen had sailed for the United States and that she is now due here.
