THE MASSACRE AT MARAsH.
Report Mt London That 1000 Christians
Were Eutchered by the Turk.

Report Mt London That 1000 Christians
Were Eutchered by the Turk.
LONDON, Nov. 29.-The Constantinople
correspondent of The Daily News tclegraphs
to his paper that the embassies there have
learned that in the massacre at Marash
on Nov. Is 1000 persons were killed. The
Christian quarters of the town were
burned from three points. A letter re-
ceived here describing previous massacrcs
says that before it commenced the town
crier ordered the Christian shops to be
opened under a penalty for refusal. 1t
was then that the pilage and murder
began. The writer of this letter, who had
been great philo-Turk, adds that there
was no sign of any rising or resistance on
the part of the Christians.
The News correspondent also SAYS that
the embassies hear from their consuls that
all possibility of rendering assistance to
the Sassounites who We're the victims Of
the outrage ut that point has been ended
and that the Kurds are wiping them out
of existence and have destroyed all the
buildings which have been erected by the
expenditure of the English relief fund.
a similar story comes from the Van coun-
try, where the disturbances continue as
badly as ever.
1t is understood that all the American
missionaries at Marash, five in number,
are safe; but whether they left Marash be.
fore the disturbances broke out or are
under the protection of the Turkish au-
thoritics is not known, as Minister Terrell
has not yet been able to obtain any news
from Marash. In fact he has not received
any confirmation of the news that massa.
ere has occurred at Marash, although
from the time the first rumor of trouble
reached here he has been doing his utmost
to communicate with the American mis-
sionaries. The authorities insist that his
kilograms are not delayed and that he re-
cievcs all the mail and dispatches ad-
dressed to him.
A dispatch to The Daily news from Bey-
rout says: The troops arriving here bear
the significant green flag Of the prophet
instead of the Turkish nag. Jerusalem is
crowded with soldiers, and troops are be-
Ing stationed in the Tower of David, Pi-
late's palace. and in the wilderness out
side the Damascus gate. The ostensible
purpose of the troops Is to subdue the
DruSes.
The porte has made another report to
the ambassadors on the situation, an
nouncing that the work of restoring order
in the disturbed districts was progressing
satisfactorily and that the reforms insist
ed upon by the powers were being effected
Is promptly as possible under the circum-
stances.
