BOLSHEYIKI STAY
And ROB AT WILL
AMERICAN RED CROSS MEN HAVE
EVIDENCE OF TERRIBLE
CONDITIONS.

Omsk.-Indisputable evidence of
the massacre by the Bolsheyiki OF
more than 1000 civilians in and near
the town of Osa, has been obtained
by Messrs. Simmonds and Emerson,
and Dr. Rudolph Teusler, of the
American Red Gross. who have just
returned from Perm, Osa, and other
occupied Russian territory. APPROX
mately 500 persons were killed at Osa
and 1000 in the surrounding districts.
Osa, which had a population of TO-
900, was SO denuded of males by the
Boishevfki that General Casagrande.
after occupying the town, was obliged
TO telegraph to Yekaterinburg for
men to administer civic affairs.
In addition to securing verbal and
documentary evidence, the American
Red Cross officials witnessed the ex-
huming OF scores of victims from
trenches, where they were buried,
sometimes several feet deep IN the
ground, revealed by the digging of
dogs. The murders were without
provocation, and the victims were
largely of the thrifty and intelligent
classes.
The Soviet called a meeting and
prepared lists of those to die. The
houses prescribed were visited by
squads. the doors were smashed In,
and the victims dragged to the edge
of the town and forced to dig their
own graves. Those resisting were
shot in the streets.
A survivor testified that he had
seen men thrown into a pit and buried
alive. This testimony has been con
frmed by bodies exhumed. the
clenched hands of which we're cling
ing to the mud at the bottom OF the
pit.
The only spark of humanity dis
coverablc was that in confscating the
belongings of the residents, in some
instances where there was family o.
small children. the family was per
mitted to retain one COW out OF sey
eral. Occasionally peasant was
allowed to keep his worst horse
| Careful inquiry, the American 90
servers say, showed that there WAS
nothing constructive in any town IN
der Bolshevik control. Money ant
property were reuuisitioned and ex
| fravagantly dissipated by individuals
! without accounting.

ing News to Transports on
Leaving France.

The American League will preach
THE gospel of base ball to our re-
turning soldiers through a free dis
tribution on every returning ship and
transport of copies of Sporting
News paper devoted to the sport.
This was decided on at the meeting

when resolution was offered by
Lieut.. Col T. L Huston. part owner
of the New York Yankees, as fol-
lows:
During tho next six months our
ships will bring home from France
some 100000 young soldiers. the
flower of our. youth and also of
fandom.
These men have practically moth
ing to read coming over on shfpbiard.
and copies of the Sporting News
would be a godsend to them.
ut is suggested that the American
League furnish one copy for each ten
men. or 100000 copies Of the Sporting
News. to be delivered to each boat In
proportion to it's capacity as 1t leaves
home ports, to be distributed to the
soldiers as the boat leaves France.
Each copy should carry a supple
ment displaying the military record
of all our players who enlisted in the
service.
"As each ship carries a permanent
Y. NJ c. A. officer, there are no seri-
GUS distribution obstacles to over
come"
