 REACHES TURKS

BERLIN, April 24.- Advices have received that the crew of German warship is within the Turkish lines at Ayshia.

 They covered the sea for 300 miles from Hoderida to Lidd. After reaching the coast the sailors attempted to con- tinue their journey overland. They were attacked by Arabs, supposedly at the instigation of tue English, Af- ter three days stubborn fighting the attacks were repulsed.
 They finally reached the road to Hodachas where a railway was open. for them to the Turkish lines.
 The adventurous Germans suffered heavy losses. The bold exploits of this remnant of the Emden's crew have constituted one of the most dra- matic episodes of the war.
