Appalling Conditions in in
Armenia.

EXTRACTS of letter from Thomas
Mills, of New York City, dated Fri
van, February 2Oth.)
aTwo days travelling about and
Observing generally the conditions of
the refugees in the city and Erivan,
Armenia, has been more than suffi-
cient to convince a field man, long
familiar with. relief work, that it is
not disease which is killing off the in
habitants Of Erivan-it is plain hum
get, starvation and exposure. ,iI
'soutside one of the Near East Re+'
.lief's soup kitchens I saw shivering
in the cold and snow hundreds Of
starving children who cried bitterly
from hunger and exposure. They kept
coming in from everywhere all, day,
presenting heart-rending picture in
their scanty rags and shoeless feet.
The impending end to, many of their
short lives was plainly written in
their CLASSY and staring eyes.
GAll possible relief is given to.
those applying at the Near East Re
lief soup kitchen, and bowl of soup
or boiled grits is given out to each
child until the kettles are empty,
Dreadful as it may SEEM it is abso-
lutely necessary to turn away many
unfed owing to lack Of supplies.
@The number Of orphans keeps in
creasing to such an extent that the
Near East cannot hope to properly
care for all and many are dying every
day in Erivan. Fifteen victims of
starvation were removed from the
central district Of the city yester=
day"
