t;cnlarly since it was believed certain
hot the train constituted typhus
,aenaee. We had hopes Of getting
o,ne relief work started, but our next
:nformation was that the train had
ooue west beyond Chita.
Thus it is evident that thirty eight
cars of prisoners care being moved
s,owly from point to point, while. the
LIST of dead. and dying grows appall-
inqly. This is graphic illustration of
some of the conditions in Siberia.
Another week. The commission g re-
mort on the 10th of December said,
iiThe chapters of tragic incidents in
connection with the death train, first
heard of at Nikolsk and there handled
bv the Red Cross, are growing weekly.
AS reported last week this train was
headed on toward Chita, and the Red
Cross was endeavoring to have it stop
ped at some point where the dying in
mates could be evacuated for hospital
treatment, and thus play humane part
as well as possibly prevent epidemic
disease. 1t now appears that after
rolling toward the west this train has
again been turned and headed toward
Vladivostok On December 10th it
was reported to the Army Intelligence
Department that the train had passed
Manchuria Station on December 18th
en- route to Chita, and that while at
Manchuria Station the prisoners had
received substantial aid The local
Americans of the Army and the Rus
sian Railway Service provided food
for one day, and the Japanese general
was able to furnish further relief.
Medical attention and food we're given
at this point and the train then went
on toward Chita.
"Three days later another tele-
gram came in showing that the train
had been turned back from the west |
and was probably in the vicinity of |
in the middle of Manchuria |
on the Chinese Eastern Railway. Again |
an effort is being made to have it |
stopped and its inmates given hospital |
attention. The situation is, Of course,
that the train is simply being passed |
from point to pont, the authorities at
each place refusing to allow the prison
ers to be taken out of the train or the
train to remain within its jurisdic
ton. -
On and on, days and nights, weeks
running into months the wretched com
pany ever dwindling as death takes its
cruel and incessant toll.
