Constantinople, Sept. Is.
-(By the Associated Press)
Smyrna has been com.
pletely wrecked by the con.
flagration which has been
raging here for the past two
days, according to informa-
ton from authentic sources
reaching here. Thousands
of persons are believed to
have perished.
(By the Associated Press.)
Massacres of far-reaching
proportions are reported to
have occurred at Smyrna,
attending the terrible con-
fiagration which has just
swept over the city.
The first reports came
from Greek sources and es-
timated the victims as high
as 1000 to 1000. Later re-
ports from British eye wit
nesses and from Americans
arriving at Greek ports
tended to confirm the mas
Isacres and gave narrowing
accounts of the extent of the
devastation wrought.
And English Agency dis
patch declared the British
admiral had warned the
Turks at Smyrna that if the
massacres continued, the
Turk. quarter would be bonn
barded.
Greeks Partly Blamed.
A correspondent of Reuter-, ar
irving at Malta, said hundreds OF
bodies Of victims were lying in the
streets Of Smyrna when he left, and
that the pillaging and massacring
were continuing. The Greeks we're
not blameless, he declared, as they
had aroused the Turks by setticS
fires to villages during the retreat
Of the Greek army.
The invasion OF the British con-
sulate by the Turks and the muir
der of an official there. also ws..
reported.
| A Greek semi-official dispatch
from Athens quoted an American
| investigator as estimating the num-
Der OF victims up to the time Of
the fire in Smyrna at 1000. The
property loss from the confiagra-
tion is estimated in the Greek quar-
ters at $75.0OO.000.
Allied Warning Likely.
Meanwhile the various European
chancellories are considering meas
ures to deal with the political de-
velopments Of the Turkish victary.
including the calling Of a peace:
conference to settle the near east
ern question. 1t seems probable the
Turks will be given joint allied
warning to respect the neutrality

that city or invade Thrace.

VERSE O. CHEER
By Edgar L. Jones

JUST \ PUP.
He has scratched the floor an scar
red tn chairs an torn the cur
tains down
Tn tracks left by his muddy paws
are scattered all aroun',
He's chewed my shoes plumb full
holes an scattered 'eln about.
He's worn the doors almost clean
through ascratchin' to git out
To romp and rip and tear around,
the peskY little cuss;
rs always been his chief delight
to git things in muss.
His scars are found on every piece
o. furniture we own
An sometimes our house looks as If
some terrible cyclone
Had made a call an wrecked tn
place before it went away;
Why ten kids couldn't make the
mess that ne makes i'm a day.
At night 1 have 90 hang my clothes
away up overhead
or else I'll have 10 fish en- out from
underneath tn bed.
He got into my collar box an ripped
'em one by one
Till there wuz nuthin left but
strings, an after that was done
He pulled a cover off the bed and
jerked it to and fro
Until he had it full o. holes with
nuthin' left TO show
What it had been. He sure has filled
my Old world full of care
From havoc he was wrought from
vandalism everywhere.
But tho he's full o. mischief he has
surely won my heart
An I would suffer more If he and
1 would have 10 part
Than I have suffered in the past
from mischief he's been in.
An tho he tries my patience I just
force myself TO grin
An overlook as best ] can, the
things that he has done
Because you see he's just a pup,
and does it all in fun.
