All the girls are in the best of health, and though many of them proved to be but poor anilors, this of little account as good weather prevalled almost through- out the voyago.

Everywhere they had been, said the girls, they had been given a most enjoyable time and made to feel thoroughly at home.

"We haven't seen the Hongkong Harbour properly yet, but from what we have seen it docan't seem too bad." declared one, "but I wouldn't want to change Sydney Harbour for it!"

Among those to meet the girls on their arrival was Dr. H. D. Matthews, President of the Au tralian and New Zenland Associa Lion, Mr. M. F. Key, Director of

It seems certain that Bahram will retain his unbeaten certificats and become the arst winner of the triple crown since Rock Sand in 1903, as the classic triples won by Pommern, Gay Crusader and Gainsborough do not count, since they were **23 at Newmarket during the war. Only ten horses have ever won the triple crown.

GREEK REVOLT

SERIOUS CLASH IN ATHENS

REPUBLICANS VIOLENT

Athens, Sept. D.

A fierce clash occurred at mid- night between Republican officers, led by General Panayotakos, ind Monarchist Guards on the thres- hold of the building where the Cabinet was meeting to consider plans for the plebiscita on the question of the restoration of the monarchy,

General Panayotakos and his brother were taken to hospital seriously injured. Thus the Re- publican element of the Army was rendered leaderless.

Nevertheless, the situation is said to be very black. Trouble began when General Panayotakos called upon the garrison foreca throughout Greece to attempt to prevent General Kondylis, Minister for War, bringing pressure to bear on Premier Taakiaris to force him to declare himself in favour of a monarchy.

General Kondylis ordered the arrest of General Panayotakon, but the latter, supported by M. Tsaldarls, refused to surrender, and fighting broke out. Scores were arrested, and the Cabinet meeting broke up.
