cate themselves they burned to death.

-. Are Destroyed. -A-3

Salonika, July 14.-Sacking and
burning of the town of Seres by de-
feated Bulgarian army and accom-
panying outrages on women and afro
cities on men were fully confirmed to-
day by dispatches from a well known
Greek correspondent.
The retiring Bulgarian soldiers, he
telegraphs, opened the cannonade with
four field guns from hill above the
town Friday. At the same time bands
of Bulgarian soldiers, led by officers,
secured the streets, pillaging stores
and houses, then drenching them with
oil and setting them alight until a
great part of the town was blazing.
The soldiers were accompanied by the
notorious revolutionary colonel, Yam
koff, who, with former officers in the
Bulgarian army, was very active in
Macedonia in 1908.
CONSULATES PLUNDERED.
The Austro-Hungarian consular Of
fees were plundered and burned, Vice
Consul zlatko being carried off by the
marauders, but subsequently ransom
ed. The Italian consulate was sacked,
but the consul bought off the incen-
diaries. The bank of Athens, the
Oriental bank, the palace of Metropo-
lis, the great synagogue, all schools,
the tobacco warehouses of American,
Austrian and German companies and
hospitals were burned. The American
Tobacco company alone suffered to
the extent of $1,000, 900. ---
WOMEN OUTRAGED.
Many people were crucified, hacked
to pieces or burned alive by the mad
dened Bulgarians, who committed
some incredible outrages on women of
all ages, many of whom died from the
effects. The condition of those who
escaped is lamentable. Rich mer-
chants are dying from hunger, while
wretched mothers find 1t hard trying
to find covering and food for their
naked and starving children.

upon the Greek and Servian peoples
| in Macedonia are absolutely unfound-
ed and are published with the object
of creating bad impression"

of refugees arriving in Sofia gave ter
rifying accounts of horrible deeds
committed by Servians and Greeks"

vices concerning the destruction of

tary of state, defended his position on

present, as follows:
"As this is my first chautauqua lee
ture since becoming a member of the
cabinet, it may not be out of place to
say that | find it necessary to lecture
in order to supplement the salary
which 1 receive from the government,
the salary not being sufficient to cover
my expenses.
''As have lectured for IS years, this
method of adding to my income is the
most natural one to which to turn, and
l regard it as extremely legitimate.
q know of no better audience than
the chautauqua audience. / did not
think it improper to go from the chau-
tauqua platform into a presidential
race, and, if l had been elected presi-
dent, should have thought it no STEP
ping down to return to the chautauqua
platform.
"These meetings enable me to keep
in touch with the people. / know Of
no better opportunity than they offer
to present a message worth presenting
to those to whom it is worn while to
present a message"
Several thousand people heard Mr.
Bryan.
