WOMEN AND OLD
MEN MASSACRED
BY THOUSANDS
Teuton Barbarians Merciless
in Murder of the
Helpless :
HANGED IN DROVES
Germans Help Bulgarians
Slay Sergians Protesting
Against Outrages
By Associated Press

Udine, June g., via Paris-Frag-
mentary news has already been re-
ceived here through neutral coun-
tries of widespread insurrectionary
movements in Serbia. This news is
now supplemented by the statements
of Austrian prisoners captured in tho
recent Italian advance, giving de-
tails of the merciless methods of re-
preston used to crush the uprising.
The insurgents were gradually sur
rounded by Austrian, German and
Bulgarian regiments and all who fell
into their hands, chiefly old men,
women and children, are declared to
have been massacred. In spite of
this procedure fierce resistance was
offered for three weeks and heavy
losses inflicted on the invaders, espe-
cially the Bulgarians.
The insurgents finally succumbed
to superior numbers and the Serbians
were hanged by the thousands. Ac-
cording TO the prisoners the Bulgar-
ians were guilty of such atrocities,
especially against women and chill
dren, that even their Austro- German
allies termed them barbaric.
