Paris, Nov. 17.--While the newspapers are publiely proclaiming that the allies would never perait n Constantine to return to the Greek throne, it was pri- vately admitted that it was extremely unlikely that Britain or France would be able to block such a mow. The people of Britain and France would not lQok with favor on a military enterprise to prevent the Greeks from putting Constantine back into power. It is con- sidered possible that France, in an extreme case, might send such an expedition to Greece. Through France's influence over the National Bank of Grepce, which contains all the nation's finances, the allies could virtually cut off the funds from Constan- tine, but they would have to reckon with the possi- ble uprising of the Greek people, enraged at foreign in- terference with the choice o a monarch.
