location, called nt the Htnto Department
late yesterday and left with Counselor
Polk a translation of tho text of the Greek
loyalist Government' protest to tho Kit
nte Allies nRalnst the blockado of tho
oast of Greece. The protest Is nit follows:
The Iloyal Hellenic Government
acknowledges rcrelpt of tho declara
tion, dated December 7. by which tho
French ndmtral commanding tho Allied
naval forcca notified them that the
French Government with Its allies had
decided to blockade tho coast of Greecn
I from October S.
Greece, who Is at peace with the
Powers of tho .entente, and has never
ceased Riving them the most striking
proofs of her firm desire to maintain
with them friendly relations and. mu
tual confidence, seen with grief theso
very samo Powers have recourse against
her to n measure which Im contrary to
the rules of international law nnd tho
principles of International Justice and
freedom.
The Itoyal Hellenic Government, ex
pecting that tho Allied Governments
will bo good enough to inform them on
what ground such a meaauro has been
taken and of tho nature of tho block
ade, decided upon, protests, firmly
asd legitimately, against such mens
urn against a neutral nnd friendly
nation .
The Grfek charge also left at tho Slate
Department a copy of n cablegram received
from Athens containing the following Infor
mation regarding tho Greek Government's
Version of what happened In Athens on
December 1 and 2 : '
Tho repression of tho Venlzcllst Insurrection-

cember cost tho troops as follows:
-Military Killed. 13; wounded. 24.
Civilians who had nsslstcd the au
thorities Killed, 6 : wounded, 6.
The Insurgents had only threo killed
nd two wounded. This Inequality be
tween the losses of the troops nnd tho
Insurgents Is explained by tho fact that
the latter wcro barricaded In their
houses and ready beforehand for un .
attack against tho troops.
