Safety Of Entire Foreign POpu-
latiOn Due to Efforts Of
American Consul
(By Henry Wood, staff correspondent
for the United Press.)

Salonika, via London, Dec, ST. All
Russians, Servians and Montenegrins
in Smyrna have been arrested by the
Turks. British and French subjects
there are not permitted TO leave. OF
the British there are 1900 and Of the
French 1000 in Smyrna. All are threat
ened with Imprisonment in coneeu'
tration camp.
To all Turkish brigands who join the
colors and aid in fighting the sultan's
enemies an amnesty has been granted.
The native Christian population Oe
Smyrna has been forced to construct
road southwark for an Ottoman invasion
Of Egypt.
Word of these developments was
brought here by W, r, A. Salisbury, q.
W. Fountain and j. A, Mounsey, the
Englishmen employed at Smyrna by the
American Lorillard Tobacco company.
The trio escaped in a Greek boat.
Foreigners in Smyrna, they said,
were not in danger at present, owing TO
the friendliness Of the governor, Rahay
Bey, but they declared that the fate Of
Europeans at the Turkish port would
be uncertain in the near future
The three men brought the first news
received from Smyrna and towns in its
vicinity since war began.
In Concentration Camps.
"The entire Russian, Servian and
Montenegrn population said Sal6a-
bury, "tO the number OF 500 has been
arrested and confined TO concentration
camps.
"At Magncsa the Turks are using
the American Protestant school as a
prison.
"British, French and American citi.
2ens are unmolested but the British and
French are not permitted to leave and
are threatened with concentration camp
imprisonment like the Russians, Serv-
ians and Montenegrins. The British
have been compelled to don the fez.
"Besidcs the 10000 British and 1000
French, there are 100 Americans at
Smyrna.
"Three British boats have been cap
tured and their crews, 10 the number OF
66 men, are prisoners,
Salisbury added that American Con.
sui General Horton and Vice Conul
Morris were working night and day to
aid the foreigners and that the en-.
thusiasm Of Rector Brett, and English
man, in manifesting his appreciation
of their services, led to the later's ar.
