Bashf Bnxouks.
CNew York Herald)

These Bashi Bazouks who are com
hitting such outrages In Crete are known
as "Rottenheads," because they are not
an organized part Of the army. They are
never called upon except in an emergency,
and then 1t Is well known that they will
kill and plumber without mercy
If crisis is al hand the general popu-
lace Is armed by the government and
allowed TO fight more as mob than a
regular force. These are Bashi Bazouks.
They are fed while in service. but they
have no other pay. They are expected
TO get their pay by looting the houses
of insurgents, and their license In this
matter is without limit They 90 into
q fight reluctantly. their only enthusiasm
depending on the prospect OF booty. They
conduct a guerilla warfare in the worst
sense OF the word.
They have made sad havoc In Gambia.
and the reports OF their doings have
made each particular hair on the head OF
civilization stand on end. The Powers
will step In and stop the massacre by
and by, but II reminds us Of the man who
shut the stable door after the horse was
stolen.
