Finally Lieut. Typaldos' force took refuge behind the headland when a shell struck the rebel destroyer Shemlone.

Lieut. Typaldos took a prominent part in the August revolt, hence lie gained support. Athens is <|uiet, but greatly excited. The Military League's prestige has sull'ered, and may be compelled to proclaim a dictatorship over the Government.

The State is determined to suppress tie outbreak by force.

REBELS OB Ltd ED To BEACH TIIEIR VESSELS. MILITARY LEAfirr. -10 IN THE I . GOVERNMENT. AX INPOPCLAI! RISING. Received Nov. 1. 0.-IS a.m. At hen*, October Ml. After the fight the rebels were obliged to bench tlie Sphendone. The sailors and petty officers landed and surrendered, while Tyjnild&s and other officers scaped aboard the de strover Meles. They landed in mufti between' Kltasis and Mugam, and are still uneaptured.

The fire of the rebels in the sea figU Icil.'ed two loyalists and wounded several other*. Three rebel stokers aboard the Sphendftiu. were killed nml other rebels wounded, including the captain of the Sj.hendone. The Military League, being satisfied with their own concessions, joined th» Government and helped to suppress the naval emeute.

The King was willing to concede some of the dnnandt?, but when Typaldos claimed himself to be the Minister for Murine, the King urged resistance.

The revolt at no time threatened to become a popular rising. It rather resembled the famous Potenikin mutiny in Russia.

TUB POWERS' WARNING. Berlin, October 211. The newspaper Jicrtiuer 'i'ageblatt. reports that England, France, Italy, 'as protectors of formeii the Greek Military LeaguetliuV they will intervene if the League en deavors to forcibly overthrow the Greek government or dynast.y.

GOV ERNMENT YIELDS TO MILITARY P.Ui'U. Athens, October 211. h ival otl'icers in Greece, feeling that only the army benefited 'by the recent coop, demanded the Government to remove several senior otl'icers. The Government yielded, introducing „ Hj|| to reduce the age-limit. It is rumored that. the officers threatened to .-vi/.e jtlie Salamis arsenal.

On October I<> the lloyal Princes of '' r, ' ( ' < e ) at the request of King Ucorge, resigned their army commission., in a last ellort to Conciliate the revolutionary officers' .Military League. It was stated in the cablegrams that though the Chamber was disposed to sympathise with the King and the Princes against the Government and the League, lioyalty requested the acceptance of the".Military lteform Hill (which removes the l'rinces from the army) without amendment or discussion, this being the only means of avoiding conflicts which the League threatened. The Chamber assented. Twenty-three Bills were passed in an hour.

•Inst before, the Military League, by an armed coup in Athens, 'in which 20(H) to 300(1 men took part, made themselves masters of the situation and installed as Premier M. Mavromiehaelis, The majority of the Chamber supports M. Thentoki, but, in view of the King's appeal, seeiiis to be content to swallow the Bills of the Army-supported Government of M. Mavromiehaelis. It was stated sonic time ago that the IVinees were willing to resign. The .Military League affirm" that it is not anti-dvuastic but is determined on reform;'and lioyalty seems to be content to yield lest Liie movement take a more aggressive form.
