THEIR CRUEL DEEDS
WOUNDED MEN aRE CRUCIFIED
AND BURIED ALIVE.
Dreadful Barbarities Practiced on
Italians by Turks and Arabs in
Tripoli War.

Italians by Turks and Arabs in
Tripoli War.
Stories Of almost Incredible bar
barities practiced by Arabs and Turks
are related in dispatches received at
the Italian embassy at washington.
In dispatph received Saturday from
Rome the Italian minister Of foreign
affairs describes alleged atrocities
practiced on the Italian wounded,
which includes cruciiXion and burial
alive. Women, it is said, take part
in the perpet-ation Of the cruelties.
The dispatch, which is signed by
Signor San Guliano, minister of for
eign affairs, follows:
Near the mosque of Ha7i. where
tho medical post of the Twenty-sev-
enth battalion of rsagiieri had
been located, and in it's vicinity %
bodies of our soldiers were found.
They were horribly mutilated, cruci-
fed, with their throats cut open, i'm
ruied, torn to pieces and dismem-
bnred. Among them there was the
body of a surgeon lieutenant.
I'm the Arab cemetery, near the
place where the fourth company of
ersagreri was located, seven bodies
we're discovered. They had been in
tered alive with their heads out Of
the earth. The body of one of these
shows that they had been terribly
tortured.
1T showed many shots and dagger
wounds; the eyes had been pulled out
and threaded and the eyelids sewn
to the eyebrows. His body shows ter
rible spasmodlc contractions. Anoth-
er one had one arm out Of the earth
from which the had had been cut off.
The body of a Dersagieri had been
torn to pieces.
"a captains cap has been found.
It's owner was identified by Corporal
Pasqui, who escaped miraculously af-
ter remaining over four hours In a
ditch. He testified that among the
ferocious horde were Turks and wo-
women. The military engineering
corps took photographs.
1T Is reported that tonight (No-
vember 81 in the Arab cemetery in
the interior OF the city the body of
IN Italian gunner was found with
many dagger wounds. The murder
ers were many, and amongst them
there was local policeman LZaptie),
who is now under arrest. From 9TH
er sources it is reported that the
murder was committed by the afore-
said Zaptie, with the passive assist
ance of otter Zapties, who concealed
the crime"
The dispatch also confirms the
withdrawal of the Italian troops from
Henni. This, it is said, was neces-
sary because the Turks had polluted
the wells.

themselves with the cause that is lost,
however just the cause, are in the
wrong because they can reap no bene-
fits, no gains, from their sincerity, de-
votion and sacrifices to a cause that is
lost, therefore as the Northern forces
were the strongest in battle, and con-
sequently successful, it is the part of
wisdom to repudiate your fathers, con-
denim their heroism, patriotism and
sacrifices in the cause of constitutional
liberty, as obsolete and not in accord
with the commercial progress of the
age. You should adopt the teachings
of the North, and thereby you may
