PRACTICALLY WIPED
OUT IN PALESTINE

LONDON, Sept 23.-t4 p m, by the
Associated Press)-Twenty-fve thou
sand Turkish prisoners and ESQ cannon
had been counted up to yesterday eve
ming by General Allenby's forces push
ing northward through Palestine, ac-
cording to, an official statement issued
today by the war once.
The war Office announcement SAYS
that the seventh and eighth Turkish
armies have virtually ceased to exist.
The entire transport of these two arm
les WAS captured by the British.

ings of the Jordan at Jlsr-Ed- Dancer
on Sunday morning, shut the last ave
nue. of escape 10 the Turks west of the

force of at least 10000 men trapped By
the British through the seizure of the.
last OF the passages of the Jordan can.
possibly get away.
Virtually the entire Turkish force is,
or will be accounted for in killed
wounded and prisoners. Hundreds Of
stragglers are being found wandering
about in the mountainous country aim
lessly, without a leader or purpose
The Turks had seven divisions south
of Nazareth and west of the Jordan, but
the exact number cannot be determined
owing to the weakness of some of the.
Turkish divisions at the totals of differ
ent units varying. The total of %, 900
prisoners reported, however. is believed
to be far less than the final count viii
show, as at last reports prisoners were
still being brought in.
The cleanup effected by General Al
lenby. which is pointed to here as the
quickest and most complete of the entire
war, is counted as having definitely de-
prived tine Turks of Palestine. In addi-
ton, besides the personnel of their army,
the defeat has cost them an immense
amount of wa material
SO far as is known the Turks on this
front only had four airplanes, and these
four have been captured.
The~statement reads
Having seized the passs o. toe
Jordan at Jisr-Ed-Darneer on the morn
