TURKS MASSACRE CHRIS.
TlANS.

Massacres Of far reaching pro-
portions are reported to have oc-
Cured at Smyrna attending the
terrible confIagration which has
just swept over the city.
The first reports came from
Greek sources and estimated the
victims as high as 1000 to 1000.
Later reports from British eye
witnesses and from Americans ar.
irving at Greek ports tended to
confirm the massacres and gave
narrowing accounts of the extent
of the devastation wrought.
An English agency dispatch
declared the British admiral had
warned the Turks at Smyrna that
" the massacre continued the
Turkish quarters would be bom-
barded.
A correspondent of Reuters ar
riving at Malta said hundreds of
victims were lying in the streets
of Smyrna when he left and the
pilasng and killings were contin-
uing. The Greeks were not blame
less, as they had aroused the
Turks by setting fire to villages
during the retreat of the Greek
army.
The invasion of the British con.
sulate at Smyrna by the Turks
and the murder of an official there
also were reported.
A Greek semi-official dispatch
from Athens quoted an American
as estimating the number Of vic
tins up to the time of the fire In
Smyrna at 1905. The property
loss is estimated in the Greek
quarters at $75,oo0,ooo. a consid-
cradle portion of which fell upon
American firms.
Meanwhile the various Euro
pean chanceIIories are consider
ing measures to deal with the po-
litical developments of the Turk
ish victory, including the calling
of a peace conference to settle the
near eastern question. 1t seems
probable the Turks will be given
a joint allied warning to respect
the neutrality Of the Constantine
Pile district in the meantime and
not march upon the city or invade
Thrace.
