Almost unnoticed by the outside
world. says the Philadelphia North
American, there has just been brought
to a conclusion in Jerusalem one of
the most extraordinary trials of the
times. The judges were Mohamme-
dams, the accusers Franciscan Broth
ers and the accused Greek monks; the
offense, murderous attack by the
Greeks on the Franciscans at the very
portals of the Church of the Holy
Graves, one of the most sacred spots
in Jerusalem. The trial was held be-
fore the Turkish Supreme Court
Nineteen of the accused monks were
discharged for lack of evidence. while
thirty-one, among them two abbots,
were sentenced to terms of imprison-
ment.
The trial brought out the entire for
eign colony, and the Pasha of Jerusa-
lem, attended by numerous staff,
occupied a conspicuous place on the
judicial bench. while a company of
soldiers kept order in and without the
Palace of Justice.
The foreign consuls, with their
dragomen, sat in reserved seats and
the Turkish authorities took care that
the partisans of neither plaintiffs nor
defendants were in the majority.
When the case was called the legal
representatives of the Greek monks
announced that their clients preferred
not to appear. They would obey the
summons only IL countersigned by the
Russian consul, they said.
It was expected that the judges
would dispatch a small army of bail
iffs to bring in the defendants, wheth
