SAVACERY OF
 TURKS TOLD BY A VICTIM

NEW YORK, June IS (by Associated Press). - One of the most pitiful stories of savagery practiced by Turks or Circassians upon the Armenians deported during the war from their homes into the country of the Arabs, is told by Victoria Varshabdian a girl of eighteen years. Her story has been made public here by the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief. The girl was the daughter of a well-to-do merchant who had shop in Constantinople and another at Nevsher, Turkey, where the family lived.
 In her narrative to a British phy- sician she said that her father and four brothers were deported and that her father died while on the journey, from a blow inflicted by gendarme Carrying their little fortune of 2OOO pounds in gold they were marched south to the vicinity of Deir-Es-Zor (probably on the Euphrates riyer) :. There they found a great congrega- tion of refugees, said to number 1000 families.
 While at Deir-Es-Zor, Murad or Suvar, the girl said twenty American priests were taken from among the refugees bound together, sent away and killed. In the river at Suvar she saw one hundred bodies of men, women and children some with their heads off.
 After collecting a ransom, the Nut essarif ordered the men of the refugees brought before him "to sign paper" The next day she said she saw the Circassians shoot down three hundred of them. Then the Mutessarif, Zeki Bey, ordered nine of the bodies of the Armenians placed in the road and drove his carriage over them. He announced that he would kill all the male refugees over two years old. Up to that time her brother had escaped death by bribery but he was taken away with others and on leaving said to his mother: Mother, I am going to die. Give me your hand and I will kiss it. Forgive me anything I have done wrong to you. Goodbye" Her brother was shot before Victoria's eyes.
 She declared also that she saw Armenians killed by driving wooden stakes through them, that two were buried alive by the Arabs and that eventually the Circassians began to kill all the women and children with their knives. Her description of this massacre is too awful to be told for she gives details of the flendish man. ner in which it was accomplished.
 Afterward Victoria was separated from her mother and sent to hte tent of an Arab where she remained for two weeks. In that period, she said, she saw two hundred small boys from Meskeneh brought through DeirEs, For to shadadieh and saw these chill dren killed in various ways and thrown or kicked into the river.
 She escaped from the Arabs tent, was recaptured by the Arabs with two other girls from Harput but later was allowed to go her way. Alter year and g half she reached Aleppo where her story was told. She has been in- formed that her mother and one brother escaped from the Circassians or Arabs. N Nairhanka uanoxa ad~a.4ialsase
