RUSSIANS REPORT
DEFEAT OF TURKS
WEEK OLD DISPATCHES FROM
CAUCASIA TELL OF REPULSES
OF THE MosLEMs.

Tiefin, Trans Caucasia, Monday, July
S, (Via Petrograd, July IL. Reports
from the various fronts in the Russo
Turkish campaign indicate that lively
fighting has occurred recently north
and south of Van Lake, Turkish Ar
menia, and south of Olti, in Trans
Caucasia, IS miles west OF Karsu. All
of these encounters are said to have
resulted favorably to the Russians. Ac-
cording to these reports, Turkish
force of 10000 men which was con-
centrated to the east of Bitlis, near
Van Lake, is being hard pressed by the
Russians.
Organized massacre of Armenians in
Bitlis is taken as an indication that the
Turks intend to retreat from that
point. The Turks distributed 100000
rifles among Kurds in Mush valley for
use against Armenians. Notwithstand-
ing massacres and epidemics the Ar
menians are resisting bravely. They
have been joined recently by 160 Ar
menian volunteers from America.
