MOSLEM HORDES SLAYING
CHRISTIANS BY HUNDREDS

Smyrna, Asiatie Turkey. April 17.-FrOm
ancient Beirut. on the extreme coast Of
Erzerum. near the Russian border. 90
miles northeast. anti-Christian riots. ac-
companied by murder, arson. and rapine,
are being enacted In Asiatic Turkey to
day.
Careful estimates place the number CT
those slain to-day at 1000 and the total
number wEo have fallen victims OF the
fanaticism Of the Moslem hordes since
the rioting began on Thursday at from
5000 to 1000.
Women are being ravished by the Nos
lem troops ard carried on into the noun
tains. while the helpless children Of the
Christians. mostly Armenians, are dying
with their parents
Inhamed by the belief that their religion
/ Is endangered by the uprising in Constan-
tinople. the MOhammedans are commit
ing the grossest atrocities against all
Christians. and the sands are running
with blood. Adana. thirty miles inland
from the Mediterranean. half her houses
in ashes and hundreds OF ner people
butchered. is the center OF the ass,.ssina-
tion which Is rampant, and extends thirty
miles along the coast, whert hardly a
house remains standing.
Authorities Helpless.
The local Turkish authorities are both
helpless and Indifferent. Orders have
come from Constantinople TO proceed
ag dnst the perpetrators Of the massacres,
but they are not being given the slight
est attention.
4 few troops have taken the field. prin-
cipally those that were stationed al
Beirut. but so far as reported they have
been wholly Ineffective in putting down
the riots. In several cases the soldiers
are reported as joining in the massacres.
The Armenians at Adana put up a
feeble resistance. and killed 80 Of the
MOslem attackers, but their number was
wholly unable 70 cope with the blood
/ seeking mobs that swept down on the
city. The MOslems exacted fearful toll
for the killing OF their comrades. and de-
strOyed the entire Armenian section OF
the city. The barbarities practiced by the
MOhammedans are said TO be the worst
ever known in their long reign OF un-
speakable cruelties.

ALUMNI WILL DISCUSS
NEEDS OF UNIVERSITY
Graduates of George Washington to Consider Financial
Statement of the Instituton and Plan to lndOrse Bill
for Special Appropriation From Congress

so as to eliminate every possibility Of
friction or suggestion that the choice
of the candidates might have been in
fuenced by any faction of the associa-
ion.
In the discussion of the financial af-
fairs of the university, 1t Is thought
likely suggestions viii be made to in
vestigate the value Of the property In
cluded in the present endowment fund
Of the school. If this inquiry reveals
an unhealthy financial condition or the
immediate need OF funds, ii is likely the
alumni will formulate a plan by which
the university may be relieved Of en-
barrassment Since the publication Of
the treasurer's annual report there has
been some question as to the valuation
he has placed on the uniVersity's main
building on Fifteenth street, certain
members Of the alumni asserting that
a valuation Of $50 a square foot is too
high, and that it should not be more
than S24 a square foot.
on the other hand, however, Il was
said at the treasurer's office today that
inasmuch as the Union Trust site was
purchased six or seven years ago at
s27. so a square foot $50 Is not an ex-
travagant figure to put on the uni
versity's main site

that the support obtained from this Con-
gressionaI measure would solve the
problem Of bridging over the univer-
sHys financial troubles. and therefore
strong effort win be made to yet its
Endorsement by the alumni association,
