British Sunday published a proclama-

exposing the inhabitants to the hor-

them all from Chanak and environs.
This is the result of the Saturday

Chanak. The British commander
called a truce and asked why they
were invading the zone. The Turks
answered they knew no zone and had
orders to pursue the Greeks wherever
they went. The British and Turk
commanders agreed to telegraph for
instructions which told the Turks to
continue the chase. Sunday morning
the Turks passed through Chanak in
