Secretary Bryan issued this state ment without comment: "Mr. , Williams requests Secretary Bryan to tender to the President hie resignation- as Minister to Greecs and Montenegro. He ay th reason for his resignation Is that he cannot com ment on the situation in Albania ft he would like under the restraint imposed by hi diplomatic position, and that he does not feel that he can conscien tiously keep client with th knowledge which he has of what Is being done. Wilson's Boece Foremost "He says that he considers th suc cess of th President more Important to th world than all of the efforts of other men and does not wish to em barrass him and wishes to thank him for the consideration which has been shown." , . A President Wilson Is expected to ac cept the resignation tomorrow nd close the brief and extraordinary career of Mr, Williams as a diplomat. Aroused over press dispatches, con tinually quoting the Minister as bit terly criticising condition in the new kingdom of Albania and arraigning the responsible European powers, the President caused his resignation to be asked for By cable last Friday night It is understood, however, that Mr. Williams, foreseeing the Inevitable, already had the resignation on the way to Washington. , Case 1 Unprecedented. This case is said to be without precedent in the history Of ths State Department. It ie not recalled that an American diplomatic representative ever before has gone .outside his post to discuss the affairs Of another coun try In th present instance the comment was regarded by the department as peculiarly untimely and ill-advised be cause of the extreme Jealousy with which th European power have guarded the tangled Balkan problem from the injeotion of new elements.
