AUSTRIANS WRECK
VILLAGE AND FARM
In Retreat from Lublin They
Destroy Polish Towns and
Peasant Holdings.

Petrograd. Oct. 4 Delayed During
the fighting in and around Lublin a
prosperous town Of Russian Poland
with a population exceeding 10000, the
Austrian soldiers AT first neither pill
LACED nor destroyed villages, contining
themselves to requistioning the har-
vest and grain stores without payment.
But proportionately with the position
of Austria becoming more precarious
and the Sighting more severe they pro.
oeeded to plunder and massacre the
civilian population.
Places which suffered the most were
Yoozefof, Opolya. Orjendovah, VilkO-
luzah and Ncdrivitzi. All these viii
lagos are now level with the ground
In their retreat the Austrians burned
namlcts and villages. destroying the
more solid buildings with big field
guns Women were insulted and the
Austrians kidnapped many young girls
and women, who were compelled to ac-
company them m great numbers.
Peasants had their fields and farms
converted into pits and trenches. A
million soldiers were digging these for
three weeks. Some of the trenches are
from four to five yards deep. The sur.
face is now barren ground covered with
big stones. Hundreds of thousands
OF hands. il is computed. will have to
be employed in the work of retaining
these farms. i; Is difficult TO estimate
the extent Of the material losses. but
the round figure is about Sl0.O00.000

Paris. Oct. 9.-Thirtv automobile
ambulances are TO be added 10 the
twcntv-four which the American Am
bulance Corps now has. The cost Is TO
be underwritten by five Americans VINO
do not wish to have their Identities
made known.
The object is to transport wounded

patients. but to any hospital available.
ARRANGEMENTS will be made for the am
balances to 90 to the battlefield and
pick I'D the wounded after nightfail or
under fire where the danger is not too
great
One Of the dreadful hardships of the
war is that the wounded often remain
unattended for from two TO four days
owing either 10 the fact that the num-
Der of ambulances is insufficient or
that the field where thew have fallen IS
swept continuously BY gunfire.
But in this connection a curious
feature has been discovered, 1t rs said

been shot in the intestines recover bet

some time than they do when they
have been promptly removed to a nos
pital after being wounded.

RUSSIA AT ODDS
WITH The TURKS
Relations Strained and
Situation on Persian
Frontier Acute.
nv Cable 10 Tic Tnbun- J

Petrograd. Oct. Sit is semi-ofhcial
~ stated that the situation on the
Turco-Persian frontier must be regard
ed as threatening. Among the kurds
who have been attacking Cossacks in
that region disguised Redifs have been
discovered. Relations between Russia
and Turkey have become very strained.
The organ OF the Russian War Office
states that the Turks have been busy
making preparations for war in Asia
Minor. especially in the vicinity of
Batoum and Erzerum.
CaucasianS are so accustomed 10 the
idea OF hoStilities between Russia and
Turkey that rumors of the last few
days have caused very little excitement.
Armenian merchants expressed most
decided opinions last spring with re-
gard TO the Turks being under the in
huence of the Germans. They were
gradually assuming a most provocative
attitude toward Russian subjects, while
in the bazaarS an energetic propaganda
was carried on. with the object OF in
citing the people against Russia. II
was represented that Russia, after
taking the whole of Northern Persia,
now wished to annex Turkish Armenia.
In Trebizond. keresun. Baiburt, Ere
rum and Hasan Kales German officers
we're constantly found buSily inspecting
forts and garriSons. As soon as Ger
many declared war Turkey hastily mob
ilized. concentrating her forces on the
Asiatic frontier OF Caucasia. The mob
ilization. however. was not a success.
Many reservists employed in the Crimea
and in Caucasia either returned to the
colors exceedingly reluctantly or tried
to escape service.
According to native inhabitants.
Turco- German officials have been busy
travelling in Asia Minor as emiSsaries
for the Young Turks. and have sue
ceeded in convincing the fanatical peo-
pie that Russia intends to take the
Dardanelles, as well as Turkish Ar
menia.
1t is stated that the forces of Turkey
are in most wretched condition. There
is no unity among the officers, who
continually are quarrelling with one
another. The government. however. is
busy distributing spare rifles and car
tridges.

Appeal to Neutrals Says

London, Oct. "a dispatch to the

"The Belgian government has aG-

ment protest against the action OF
Germany in monopolzing all the food
stuffs found in Brussels and its en-
yirons, thereby reducing the native
population to famine"
Washington. Oct. 9.-The Belgian
Minister filed with the State Depart
ment to-day protest from his govern
ment against the threatened famine in
Brussels. alleged to be due to the raw
ages caused by the German army. The
message from the Belgian Foreign
Office, and filed with the department,
SAYS:
THE civil authorities Of the Brus-
sells agglomeration inform the govern
mont that Brussels faces famine.
Violating once more the rights of man
kind. and. namely, Article i3 of the
Fourth Convention of The Hague. the
German army, after having taken awdy
from the population an important par

AMERICANS RETURN
FROM FAR CORNERS
Refugees Arrive in Lon
don from Mozambique
and AStrakhan.

London. Oct. 9. I'm statement is
sued tonight by II. c. Hoover, chair
man of the American Relief Committee,
it is estimated that. including passen-
gers sailing on the Mauritania and the
Olympic tomorrow and also those sail
ing in the last two weeks. there has
been a total of more than 100000 per
sons who have embarked from here
for America since the war began.
In the last fortnight 5000 left for
America. and during that time assist
ance was given to PAL, making total
of 1915 to date. Many Of these were
from obscure corners Of the earth.
Speaking of these, Mr.. Hoover said:
at is evident that the American tour
lists have pretty well returned home.
There is. however. small but steady
stream of people who have been ma
rooned in obscure corners of the world.
For example, during the last day or
two we have had one gentleman who
had been helped along by the American
authorities from as far as Mozambique.
another from Astrakhan and third
from Calcutta. II is probable that this
small stream of American travellers
will be flowing into London from out
of-thc-way places for some months.
Another situation. however. has pre-
scented itself 60 the committee. which
will require its activities throughout
the war There is a resident colony OF
Americans in Europe of somewhere IN
the neigh borhood Of 100000 people.
comprising officials and professional
and mercantile classes. The latter are
connected largely with export trade. \
very large majority Of these persons
are. of course, able to take care OF
themselves in times Of distress, but
among them are considerable numbers
of Americans who are employed IN
minor OCCUPATIONS or engaged in small
business enterprises. The resources
of this class have been badly dlslo-
Gated by the war and much acute dis
tress is developing.
"If they were sent home they would
only add to the unemployed there, and
would need support even at home. But
of more importance is the fact that
many OF them can partially maintain
themselves here, and will be on their
feet again as soon as there is any re-
vival Of business.
As all European nations have suf-
hclent drain upon them IN looking al
ter their own countrymen, the care Of
such Americans must rest on our clti-
ZenS. for we cannot see our country
men and countrywomen starve. The
distress in this connection probably
will increase throughout the war, and.
so far as we can see. the committee IS
Going to have as much as it can deal
With. Such a large portion of the more
veIl-to-do Americans has left the Con-
tincnt that this committe is compellc. .
TO assist some of the local committees
there in their local problems, and we
have therefore been obliged to extend
our field beyond Great Britain Itself.
"Our resources already are over.
strained. and we shall need to appeal
10 our countrvmcn at home for assist
sncc.'

U. S. OBSERVERS
KEPT in LONDON
Military and Naval At
taches Not Allowed to
Go to Front.
lBy cable to The Tribune

London, Oct. 9.-AlthOugh the Brit
ish army and navy have been on ac-
tive service for more than two months
the American military and naval at
taches who have been patiently walt
ing to go to the front as observers. are
still RENAME? in London, with APP
parently little prospect of the govern
ment relaxing its determination not
to permit foreign observers. The mat
ter has been made the subject of dlplo-
matte representations, which it is UNI
derstood are now continuing, but with
out definite result. although the Ad-
miralty ard War Offices have not yet
given a fiat refusal to grant tins
courtesy, which is customary during
wars.
Permission for the American officers
10 observe :he operations Is considered
of more than passing interest. In fact,
it is question of much Importance
for great and lew lessons are TO be
learned during this war, and can only
be learned in the field or on the ships.
What the officers might learn would
be OF great value to the American
army and navy. possibly saving thou
sands of American lives in war time.
Consequently there is keen disappcnt-
ment over the attitude OF the British
government.
Meanwhile the officers are learning
what they can Of modern warfare IN
London, where the government at
Washington should by all means keep
them. 1t is reported that Washington
contomnlatcs the withdrawal Of most
of the officers here. but IT IS con
sidered that this would be a serious
mistake.
The officials cannot help contrasting
the situation regarding observers here
with the situation elsewhere. In Ger
MANY Major Langhorne has been giYcr
every facility to see everything anc
90 anywhere. and he has all the iree'
dom of a German General staff officer
while several other attaches are treat
ed similarly. Naval officers have beer
permitted to visit the German hee'
and have acquired much useful knowl
edge. The Austrian government ha'
been correspondngly liberal. In France
also the American officers are permit
ted much freedom, having an oppor
tunity to gather useful information.
The war is producing many ne"
things in modern warfare. which fol
the sake of self-preservation Amerlca
must know. In all the other wars bel
ligerent nations always invited foreign
observers. It is only the customary
thing, and in refusing American OBJ
servers England is establishing prece'
dent. During recent wars observers
rave been curtaled. particularly by the
Japanese. but nevertheless even the
passage over the field Of battle al
ready fought is productive of much
useful information.

BRYAN TO SEND
GOLD TO TURKEY

Washington, Oct. o Secretary Me-
Adoo has been asked by the State De-

deposits in the Bank of England for
the relief OF Americans in Turkey,
where aid is urgently needed. accord
ing To Ambassador Morgenthau, at
Constantinople. The funds would be
transferred through the British bank
at Alexandria. Egypt. and the cruiser
North Carolina. which arrived to-day

to American officials in Turkish ports.
According to recent dispatches,
American schools at Smyrna, Beirut,
Jerusalem and Constantinople, ordl-
narily supported by mission socletles
in the United States, are practically
without funds. Under the present con
ditions II is impossible for funds to be

THREE FRENCHMEN
ROUT 200 GERMANS
Creeping Up at Dinner Hour
They Seize and Turn Foes
Guns on Enemy's Trenches.

Bordeaux, Oct. 9.-How three French
soldiers captured two German quick
iirers and put to fight two companies
of German infantry is told in a letter
from a captain Of infantry fighting on
the Aisne.
Two corporals and private, IN
recommending, crawled within ten yards
of the German trenches. Most Of the
German soldiers were away fetching
dinner and the officers were some dis
lance back of the guns.
The three Frenchmen sprang to the
guns and turned them on the unsus-
pecting Germans, who fed. and COM
municated their panic to two entire
companies. French artillerymen who
had been watching the proceedings
opened fire, and all but eXterminated
the Germans.
That night the two corporals were
made second lieutenants and the sol
der a sergeant major.
