THINKS TURKISH TROOPS

Rev. Dr. George L. Herricl1 was for
more than 90 years missionary in
Turkey under the American board, sup
ported by gregationaliSts In this
country He is just now in New York,
at work upon revision of the New
Testament in Turkish. After the long
residence in Turkey he eVinceS some
sympathy for the Turkish prospects,

The able military leader and
strongest man Of Turkey Of today is
Shevet Pasha, but for some strange
reason he has not been heard of In
the newspaper dispatches. What may
be the reason he is at a loss to know.
a difficulty with Turkey at the mo-
ment is that all of her leaders are
men Of advanced years, and most Of
them have been compelled to return
from retirement to cope with present
conditions. kiemil MuHtltar and
Chazi Mukhtar, who are brothers, he
regards as very able men, but says
they are very old.
He admits being amazed at the
showing made so far in the war with
the allies by the Turkish soldiers. He
recOunts that they have always been
fighters of renOwn, and that they
have lately been trained by German
officers. He thinks the showing, IN
less improved, viii cause inquiry to
be made concerning Germany's train
ing. possibly not creditable to Dutch
pride He thinks 1t possible the
Turks are laying low near TOhorbi,
which is about so miles from Con-
stantinOple, and may there engage the
Bulgarians in a greater conflict than
the world has yet seen, and bloOdier
one.
While the fate of ConstantinopIe
seems to hang in the balance he does
not believe. he says, that BUlgarians
can hold the city There are 200, 600
Greek residents of the Turkish capital
city, and only about 10000 Bulgars.
The Greeks would take a hand, he
thinks. He is quite certain the Euro

, Balkan states take COnstantinople and
( keep it. Russia has wanted the city
! for centuries, and might move its
capital from st. Petersburg to the
BOsphOrOus bank. The car will surely
take a hand, and If he does Austria

IS long way off.
Speaking of cruelties, he SAYS it is
notorious that the Bulgarians, and to
some extent the Greeks. kill the Ar
menians and others of Macedonia. The
turmOils are inCessant, and both sides
are to blame, not the Turks alone. He
thinks Americans may we'll 90 slow in
