ElST'FR BRlJTLS FEARED,
Christian Sccts IN Holy City -1gain
Threaten FiOIcHcc.

Fresh aniuositfcs have recently broken out
among the Christian sects al Jerusalem, and
it is feared thai the celebration Of Easter be
side tha traditional tomb of the Prince Of Peace
viii result in worse braWls and bloodshed than
usual within the last century hundreds Of
Christians have been killed and wounded in
theological disputes within the most sacred
precincts. hut until lately it was thought that
permanent peace had been established among
the warning sects. The dethronement of the
Greek PATRIARCH Damianos. who strove to recon
cilc the extreme elements, indicates that argu-
ments may be resumed with weapons of vio-
Ience. Heresy is no academic question in the
Holy City. and disagreements on POINTS Of
dogma often punctuated with dagger or
club
While the Christians fight the Turkish
thorities look on with contemptuous amuse-
mcnt or iuterposc in the interests of law and
order when violence goes too far At the
Church Of the Nativity, in Bethlehem, and the
Church Of the Holy Sepulchre, in Jerusalem,
the soldiers Of the Sultan stand guard to
prevent rival sectarans from slaughtering one
another. Christmas and Easter the dan
gerou~ seasons, when Greek, Copt, Syrian, Ro-
Ian. Abyssinian, Maronite and other varieties
of Christians flock to the shrines to celebrate
the birth and Geath Of the peace-proclaiming
Nazarer,. Each sect has a chapel of its own
within the sacred structures and separate hours
are assigned for worship but the different
groups Of believers are inclined to intrude
one another and interrupt solemn rites with
fisticrffs
The immense churches contain dangerous
dimly lighted passages, narrow, steep stairways
and dark. underground caves, numned only by
the Pickering light Of tanow candles or snail
oil lamps hanging from the ceiling. In these
passages and suoterranean chambers desperate
ducls sometimes take place. and treacherous
sectarians. knives under their cloaks lie in wait
for their enemies. During festival seasons a
Iarga number of Turkish soldiers are distributed
through the churches, and especially they form
a barricade around the appointed site of par
ticuiar ceremony, guarding the chancel and
establishing police lines against intrusive sec
taraus. At any moment the solemn pomp of
the ritual may be broken by the shouts of men,
the shrieIls of women and the clash of weapons.
Painting women are trodden under foot by
pancStrickcn pilgrims men attack another
and the soldiers strike about with the butts of
their guns or draw their swords against fanatic
comIatants. When the church IS cleared the
marble floor looks like d battlefield strewn with
broken tarers, caps and shawls and shreds Of
garments, surrounded by pools of blood, The
smoky incense floating above the scene adds TO
the battle effect.
The recent outbreak between Syrian and
Greek members of the same orthodox Church Is |
the more surprising. in view Of the new era of
religious tolerance among the Turks, resulting
from the Sultan's grant Of constitution last
