Salonikf.-The sacdng and burning
OF the town of Sores by the defeated
| Bulgarian Army and the accompany
ing outrages on women and atrocities
on men were fully confirmed in a dis
patch from a Greek correspondent.
The retreating Bulgarian soldiers.
he telegraphed, opened a cannonade
with four field guns from a hill above
the town. At the same time bands of
Bulgarian soldiers, led by their Off
GERS, secured the streets, first pillag-
Ing the stores and houses and then
drenching them with petroleum and
setting them af1Ee until the greater
part of the town was blazing.
The soldiers were accompanied by
the notorious revolutionary Colonel
Yankof, who with other former Of
ffcers of the Bulgarian Army were
very active in Macedonia in 1903.
The Austro-Hungarian consular Of
fees were plundered and burned.
Vice Consul George C. Zlatko being
carried off by the marauders, but sub
sequently released. The Italian con-
sui bought off the incendiaries.
The Bank of Athens, the Oriental
Bank, the Palace of the Metropol-
tan, the great tobacco warehouses of
the American, Austrian and German
companies and the hospitals were
burned after they had oeen pillaged.
The American Tobacco Company
alone suffered to the extent of ST.
100000.
Many people were crucified, hacked
to pieces or burned alive by the mad
den Bulgarians, who committed in
credttable outrages on women of~all
ages, many Of whom died from the
effects.
The condition of those who escaped
is lamentable. Rich merchants are
dying of hunger, while wretched
mothers are trying to find covering
and food for their naked and starv-
ing children.

Becker Denied New Trial,

New York.-Chas. Becker's appli-

numbering the gambler, Herman Ros-
enthal, was denied by supreme court
Justice Golf. Counsel had sought to
reopen the case on the ground of new
'ly discovered evidence. Justice Golf,
who was the trial judge in the Becker
case and in the case Of the four gun
men, held that the police lieutenant
had fair trial before him and denied
the plea. If relief comes to Becker
now 1t must be through the higher
courts.
