TerribIe SIauchter in Macedonia,

The whole Christian population OF
the town of Mehomia (RaZalog) prov
ince of Sores was massacred Sept. %
with the exception of ten men, who es-
capped with the news. Mehomia is an
important town and the seat of local
government. The population is about
equally divided between Turks and
Bulgarians The latter numbered 5000
persons. Five engagements are report
ed to have taken place in the vicinity
of Kratavo, where 5000 Turks were at
tackled by revolutionary bands and
though many Turks We're killed, the
insurgents We're completely routed. Ad-
vices from the insurgent headquarters
assert that 5000 Turks were routed by
1000 insurgents in the Pirin mountains
after four days fighting. The Turkish
losses in this affair are said to have
been the heaviest during the whole
outbreak. The horrors of the situation
in Macedonia will soon be increased
by famine a great part of the harvest
has been destroyed and the rest will
soon be ruined by the rains. Fifty
thousand people are homeless. The
Turks refuse to allow aid to be sent to
the victims. Austria and Russia have
conferred and will insis: on the porte
carrying out reform in Macedonia.

The MohiIerH Massacre.

Further details are given of the mas
sacre of Jews at Mohilerff,, near Kishi-
neff, Russia, Thursday. Thursday was
day for the celebration of the Feast
of the Atonement. The Jews were
warned there was trouble in store for
them but instead of attacking the peas
ants as was at first reported they did
not leave their homes for the syna-
gogue. They barricaded their houses
and awaited the attack. The peasants
made a rush on the barricaded houses
but were met by a stiff resistance. The
battle ragged for hours. Finally the
Jews were routed and the massacre
began. One hundred peasants and
three hundred Jews were killed. Jewish
houses were looted and their shops
destroyed.

Nearo Emigration Story Denied.

A news despatch from Paris says
that Booker T. Washington denies the
report that he is interested in a scheme
for the emigration of the American
negro to Africa. He is quoted as say
ing: Il had conversation with Leigh
Hunt in America with regard to help
ing him to secure few educated col
ored men from Tuskegee for the pur
pose of introducing skilled agricultural
methods among the natives of the Sou
dan and it is possible that If Mr.. Hunts
plan develops a few students may go
to the Soudan. AS the result of my
observations abroad l believe, as al
ways, the best place for the negro is
America. My belief is based on the
fact that he has there better industrial
opportunities and is far better off than
in the same walk of life in Europe"
