Heartrending scenes Of suaer.

correspondent of the. Associated
Press, accompanied by the sec.
retary OF a foreign embassy and
by Major Clyde s. Ford, United
States army. who ia here on leave
ofabsence, paid a visit there.
The camp il situated at the side
OF q railway embankment thirty

like a village green stretches a.
way for some distance, This is

OF the ~ealthier foreign residents
of Constantinople.
A naureatlng picture was wit
neasel at the side of tine railroad,
The bodies which had been
thrown from trains lay as they
had fallen. Some had struck on
top OF the emhankment; Others
had rolled a part of the way
down aud some had reached the
bottom. Some of the corps lay
stifly nlore; Others were ngroups
OF thrpes or fOnrs.
Around a one.story stable at
the foot of the ambankment was
a group OF 60 dead and dying ly-
ing close together. apparently
for warmth on the slopes of q
manure pile which the sick men
had found softer than the hard
ground. One man on top of the
pile was digging with his fingers
a sort of trough in which to lie.
The trough, soon becam his
grave.
As the yisitars came near one
victim attempted tocrawl across
the road to the crowded manure
heap, but failed and fell in the
roadway. Others lying arou' d
raised their heads aud cried in
the hearing OF the attendants
that they were given no bread or
water. Walking half way across
the geld, the visitors passed dead
and dying men, sometimes at in
tervnls of a yard, sometimes
from 20 to 30 yards apart.
A group Of ttnts stood in the
center, where four or five Turk
ish soldiers. wearing the arm
piece of tie Red Crescent, stood
on guard. Inside the sick a n d
dead lay in groups. The doctor
on duty counted % patients in
one tent, while double thatnun-
her lay just outside, sheltered
from the wind to leeward OF the

Some of the stricken men found
difficulty in getting into the Mos
lem position for prayer looking
toward the east. One praying
victim was 70 weak that he could
not replace his blanket around his
head when the wind blew it. off
The Red Crescent attendants
made no attempt to-, assist any
OF these suffering soldiers, not
even placing stones which were
plentiful, under their heads to
permit them to lie easier.
A water tank drawn by a don.
key passed along the road. Those

wanted because Tucker" was

BIG TROLLEY MERGER

Would Put All Western Massachus-
etts Lines Under New Haven Control
A bill to authorize the Berkshire
Street Railway company to absorb
the Springfield street railway sys-
tenn and to require the Berkshire
company to guarantee certain extern
sions to the trolley system in Wes-
tern Massachusetts was received in
the Massachusetts house Friday and
referred to the committee on street
railways.
The bill was filed with the petit
ton OF Leonard F. Hardy and the
selectmen of about 16 of the towns
OF western Massachusetts.
Besides authorizing the merger OF
the Berkshire and Springfield sys-
tens, which will place the latter
system under the direct control Of
the New Haven railroad. the bill
also amends an act of 1910 so as to
permit the Berkshire system to link
up its lines with the Springfield
system by way OF Blanford and re-
quires the construction Of extern
sions to the Springfield system from
Huntington to Cummington and
from some point near Springfield to
Granville and Southwick
The bill was drafted by the legis-
lative committee of the organization
Of representatives of the western
Massachusetts towns directly inter
ested in the proposed extensions.
Although only three new lines are
mentioned in the bill filed with the
petition, the petition is broad
enough to permit amendments to re-
quire the construction OF any other
extensions to the existing trolley
systems in western Massachusetts,.

For the first time in Is years II

Hudson river on the Ice opposite
Yonkers and several hundred per
sons took advantage Of the unusual
opportunity and accomplished the
feat. A number OF women were
among those who crossed. An even
more unusual crossing was related
last night by four young men who re-
ported having made their way across
the river opposite Manhattan island
near Two Hundred and Tenth street.
Cold. which brought the official
thermometer down to 10 degrees be
low zero during the night, caused the
