TURKS MAY HAVE HAD A HAND.
THE ATTITUDE OF EDHEM PAsHA'S
TROOPS STILL INEXPLICABLE.

cOncerted-Refugees Tell Awful
Stories OF Massncres-Christian
Survivors Swear That the Butchery
Was Mostly the Work of Turkish
SOldiers-Edhem Pasha Did Not
Put in His Appearance Until After
the British Had Fought Four
Hours-Suspected of Having Ar
ranged the Plot Himself.
London, Sept 9-The correspondent of
the Standard telegraphing Thursday from
the British battleship Camperdown, off
Gambia, says: 1.-The refugees tell ghastly
stories of massacre. They report that no
Several attempts were made last night to
set on fire the office of the Eastern Tele-
graph Company.
1T has been ascertained that all the
houses overlooking the British camp
were loopholed for rifle fire and barricaded.
This shows clearly that the outbreak
was preconcerted. The behavior and at
titude of the Turkish troops have been
and still are inexplicable. without going
so far as to assert that they took part
in the attack on our troops-though many
people are ready to affirm on oath that
they actually saw the Sultan's soldiers
fire ON our men--it is impossible to contro-
vert the positive fact that they made no
attempt to render assistance.
Every Christian survivor of the mas
sacre swears that the butchery was most
ly the work of Turkish soldiers, who first
robbed and then slew their victims.
'Edhem Pasha is the man who ought
to be held primarily responsible. Had he
wished to prevent bloodshed he would
most certainly have done so.
Not till the British troops under Col.
Ref had been fighting hard for four hours
did Edhem, with his Turkish soldiers, ar
rive upon the scene. He had the effront-
cry TO say that he had only just heard the
British troops were being attacked by
thousands of Bashi-Bazouke.
TT is needless to comment on this bra
