ing and INSCRIPTIONS hillmen is indulg-
ing in all manner of robbery. brigandage
and assassination, with some semi-politf-
cal purpose which is not yet clearly ex-
planned.
According to the correspondent of the
Temps at Saloniki, the Red Brothers
are an association formed outside Of all
existing considerations, and are all OF
them non-Turks. There is some apparent
analogy between their purpose and that

A summary Of the exploits with which
they are credited includes the murder Of
five Moslem merchants in the neighbor-
hood Of Ishtib and the theft Of $1,000

recent dynamite attempts on the Mace
