New King Leaves Yanina.

New York Times 100 years ago today, March 20, 1913:
Constantine Burst Into Tears When He Learned of Father's Death.
    YANINA, March 19.— King Constantine left here for Salonika this morning after handing over to Gen. Danglis the chief command of the Greek Army. He was informed of the death of his father by Col. Dousmanis, who said to him:
    "Your Royal Highness, I have important and sad news to impart to you."
    Prince Constantine, grasping the back of his chair, interjected:
    "From Salonika?"
    When the telegram announcing the tragedy was then read to him the Prince was so overcome that he was unable fully to grasp its purport, and Col Dousmanis was obliged to read it to him a second time.
    Prince Constantine thereupon burst into tears, and for a considerable time was quite overcome with grief.

    LONDON, March 19.— The assassination of King George of Greece has placed nearly all the royal families of Europe in mourning.
    Queen Alexandra, the sister of the murdered King, has recovered from the first shock of her brother's tragic death and is bravely giving considerable personal attention to the flood of sympathetic messages that she has received from all parts of the world.
    The Greek Minister issued a statement to-night in which he said that Schinas on two occasions was discharged from a small position as attendant at a school because of his alcoholism and weak intellect. He had applied to King George for assistance, and his petition, after being referred to the proper quarter, was rejected. He was a Greek subject of mixed parentage.
