For noma rouanua that Will bo readily understood, the name of this oorropoudciit la with hold, but bo Is a uawapiiiMT man woll known iu America and ho wua In tructcd to nuiko an tuipurtiul Invewtl irntlon of tha stories told of Turkish cruolty.

But from what tho rorresjiondent says iu tho latter part of bis letu-r, there are two aide to the Armenian story, as bo remnrka: "But no nattier what lli;ht was thrown ution the stma- modlc wIckiHlni-aa of tho Turk or uisd tha liuronlus deviltry of tha revolution ary connplratora, we flud that It Is still Uio tnncMt that Buffer nioat" The Turks dtnLre that the Armen lana hve Inflicted shoklna outrages iim TuikliUi nicn and women and from what la already known of tha con spiracy molhods, ll la quite likely that tha atory la true.

The vll lasers and their Kurdlah protectors niinie a vigorous defense. They would ! have ended It Unn. but before the fighting wan over Uio Turklah govern ment came Into the affair and then the real trouble twgan. I Some of them totcgraphed that a conspiracy waa In proitreae among the Armenlaua In Uis mountain village and tha order came straight from the palaH: "Punjab tit vlllaget to the utmost extrumlty." Kurdish bandlta Jolml forces with the Turkbth nvuliu ard even the Kurd, who hud been defending tha Armenians, turned traitor. The poor Armenian ixsuianta wet then loft to Uio mor.'y tf a force of Turklah reg ulara and two bands of Kurds. The Armenians fuucht aa only men can to defend their wives and children from outrnco nnd death. They took refuse lu their houses, but Die Kurdish cnutiou nindo short work of these and they wero sluln without mercy, man, woman and child. Tho outrntro of Armenian wamon nnd children by tho Turks In that IMirt of the country is a common thing.
