ARMENIAN RELIEF.
MISS CLARA BARTON REPORTS THE
CONDITION OF AFFAIRS.
Their Hardest Work is in the Fever
Stricken Cities - Distributing
Farming Implements,

CoNsTANTINoPLE, April S.-LSpe-
cial Correspondence of the Asso-
ciated Press. Miss Clara Barton
has drawn up the following state
ment regarding the progress Of her
relief work in Asia Minor:
ait should be understood that one
object of our labors in the field at
this time is helping the people cul-
tivate their land and get crops of
some sort to grow, that they may
subsist upon in the near future and
through the coming winter, or
their condition of hunger or threat
ened starvation will he as great, or
greater, than now. Our agents
have been busy purchasing in the
cities the farm implements in gem
eral use by the people and carry
ing them to the villages or farms
where all implements have been
destroyed. 1t is understood that
the government has expressed a
desire to take part in providing
seed for planting. Indian corn, or
maize, is one article distributed for
food by our people, and it can be
planted il no other seed is pro-
vided. Two expeditions are en-
route for Harpool by different
ways, providing the farmers as
they 90. Money for this purpose
is being freely sent from here.
"The object, and perhaps the
one appealing more directly to the
sympathies Of the people, is the
handling of the medical relief Of
the two fever stricken cities OF lei
toun and Marash, where from
eight to ten thousand people are
suffering the agonies OF four dis
tinct epidemics raging among them
at once, the typhoid and typhus
fevers, dysentery and smallpox.
The first two would naturally fol-
low as the result of the conditions
of great depletion by starvation
and hardships and the putrid at
mosphere of a neglected fields Of
siege and battle, with fostering
wounds and long unburried dead.
The smallpox must have been
brought from some infected dis
trict. For the treatment of these
diseases there are no physicians
left. A few holy missionaries,
withinames to be henceforth part
of the history of this miserable
field, and one worn doctor dividing
himself between three cities seven
miles apart, like poor Cassabianca
stood at their posts.
I'm this state of things we put
ND the medical relief OF these i'll
fated cities. Physicians must be
found who are willing to risk the
double danger of contagious dis
eases and a county by no means
in settled condition.
Through Mr.. George Post, OF
Bevrout, few were drawn from
the medical college in the city,
placed under charge OF DIR. Ira
Harris, and sent on by sea and
land with medical supplies to be-
gin hospital at Marash.
"More physicians are on the
way and others are being procured
TO report to DR.. Harris who has to.
day sent a part of his men to
Zeitoun. The result Of his inves-
LEGATIONS can only reach US later.
SIN all Asia Minor there is no
other organized body OF medical
relief. We have bound ourselves
for it's entire expense, medical sup
plies, transportation, hospital ar
rangements, salaries and travelling
expenses Of physician and all nee.
