ADAN A DEAD SAID
TO NUMBER 23,000
Missionary Writes of Horrible
Scenes During Massa
cres by Turks.
GOVERNOR LOST HIS WITS
a plot existed to destroy the 50,000 Ar
menians in Adana Province, and that of
the total number 23,000 were slain.
Origin of Struggle Unknown, bnt
Plot to Kill All of 50,000 Arm- .
nians Believed to Have Existed.
Authorities Allowed Killing.
ADANA. Asiatic Turkey, 'Wednesday,
April 28, via Constantinople, May . The
Rev. Stephen R. Trowbridge, a mission
ary of the American Board of Commli-
- sionera for Foreign Missions, estimates
the number of Armenians killed in the
Province of Adana since the outbreak of
the anti-Christian rioting at 23,000. The
mlHeionary said today:
A conservative estimate of the Chris-
- tians killed In the city of Adana is three
thousand. This calculation is made up
from the list prepared by the priests and
other officials who give permits for
burials. Not less than nine thousand per
ished in the towns and villages of the
province. This figure is based upon the
full information sent forward by the
British Consul.
"Surviving Armenians in the entire
province are largely women and children.
They amount to about twenty-five thou
sand souls, and are today without homes,
shops, tools, clothing or bread. A most
pitiable and wretched multitude is pass
ing up and down the streets of 'Adana
like a lost people. They throng the big
factory yards, where a dole of flour is
given out by the relief committee.
Crowds of broken-hearted women and
children are coming in from the country
to even greater misery in the city."
Porte Belittled Occurrences.
Mr. Trowbridge has written a further
account of the events at Adana, especially
with reference to the attitude of the Turk
ish authorities. In this recital he says:
"We understand from consular tele
grams that the smmblime Porte assured
the Ambassadors at Constantinople that a
slight outbreak had occurred at Adana,
with about fifty casualties- and the burn
ing of a few houses, and the Porte de
clared further that the Americans here
were amply protected.
"We do not know the exact origin
of the struggle. I Bay struggle be
cause this has not been a massacre in
the sense that the Armenians died
without resisting. They fought des
perately in self-defense, and the fury
of the Turks increased in proportion
as the Armenians succeeded in slay
ing Mohammedans. For two days pre
ceding the outbreak there had been
a bitter feud between Moslems and
Christians. In one vineyard shooting
was begun and hatred was aroused
on April 12. An Armenian, who had
been beaten, shot one of his opponents
dead and wounded two others. This
man escaped to Merslna am', took
passage on a vessel. '.-..
"The Turks in Adana then assumed
a menacing attitude, which . greatly
alarmed the Armenians. The body of
the Moslem killed in the vineyard was
purposely dragged to an open square
and left there exposed by the Turks
as a fanatical clilenge.
fjovernment Is Acquiescent.
"A rumor spread among the Ar
menians on April 14 that massacreing
by the Turks already had been begun,
and as a demonstration of self-defense
. a volley of shots were fired from the
roofs of Christian houses. This in
turn was interpreted in the Moslem
quarters as an attack and the word
sjfrread like wildfire that the Armenians
were in revolt and must be crushed.
"Subsequent events have shown
clearly that the Adana government
acquiesced, if it did not actually par
ticipate in the cruel and indiscriminate
attacks made with fire and rifle and
sword upon the entire Aremenlan col
ony. Including our Protestant congre
gation, which, as a body, has been
wholly loyal to the government. Two
Christian prisoners who escaped from
government headquarters declared
horsemen came in at intervals from
outlying towns and villages and re
ported to the military authorities as
follows:
" 'Hamadieh Is finished." or 'Osmlnyeh
is finished," meaning, of course, that the
Armenian populations of these villages
had been put to the sword. The mili
tary officers received this Information
as a matter of course.
Fired From Minarets.
"The further occupation of Moham
medan minarets by regular soldiers be
gan shortly after noon of April 14, at the
very outset of the struggle. These sol
idlera kept up a cruel fusillade Into all
parts of the Christian quarter. They
were shielded by the parapets of the
minarets. There were no patrols of sol
diers or police all day Wednesday, " the
. 14th. 'none on Thursday and none on
Friday at the real crisis, when a Mos
lem mob filled the -streets from here
to the river, surging against the walls
of the girls' school. The government fur
nished us no protection whatever.'
Continuing, Mr. Trowbridge related
how he had reached the Governor at
Adana by a dash across the city, carry
ing a Turkish flag and accompanied by
two Turks.
"The Governor was running about in
dismay," Mr. Trowbridge said, "and he
.could scarcely give -a coherent answer
to my questions and demands. I told
him of the murder of Henry Maurer and
D. M. Rogers, American missionaries,
lie turned pale at my statement, al
though he had already heard of the kill
ings. His answers were:
" I cannot be responsible." To' this I
replied: 'You must be responsible: we
have no other force to rely on except the
Government. You have completely aban
doned us through' this crisis.'
Governor Loses Wits.
. "The Governor was so alarmed and con
fused that It was clear that he had no
mastery of the situation. Prisoners and
soldiers, common Turks, were running In
' and out of the Governor's audience cham
ber. The Governor finally conferred with
his commandant, who ordered 150 troops,
v under Osman Bey, to be dispatched to
the American school."
On his way back to the mission house,
Mr. Trowbridge observed that all the
shops on the central square of- Adana,
both Christian and Moslem, had . been
: looted. He related various examples of
the Government's indifference to the safe
ty of the Armenians or Its participation
In their killing. Armenians begging ref
uge at government headquarters were
killed in the, market place. Villagers
who brought prisoners to the government
headquarters were asked:
"Why did you not -finish these giaours
in the village? Why have you brought
them here?"
Fifty Armenians were thrown into the
river above Adana. Throughout the fight
ing, railroad, postal and telegraph rcom
munloatlnn was cut off.
It is Mr. Trowbridge's conviction that

Dr. It. S. Manson, Alienist, Defines
Obsession of Murderer When He
Shot Annis Any Mental Dis
ease Called Insanity.
FLUSHING, X. Y., May 6. The defense
had rested its case and the prosecution
was well along in examining witnesses in
rebuttal when court -adjourned today in
the trial of Captain Peter C. Halns, for
the killing of William 3. Annls.
The witnesses for the state were prin
cipally Army officers who had been sta
tioned at Fort Hamilton and Fort Han
cock during June, July and August, 1908,
and had met Captain Hains at that time.
Rational Before Shooting.
Their testimony tended to controvert
that" of the Army witnesses for the de
fense in that they all said Captain Halns
spoke and acted rationally a short time
before the shooting, while the defense
contends he was suffering from Insanity.
They admitted, however, under cross-examination,
that Captain Hains had acted
in a nervous and ' excited manner and
looked pale and worried.
At the opening of court today District At
torney Dewitt resumed his cross-examination
of Dr. L. S- Manson, the alien
ist, who testified yesterday that Cap
tain Hains was suffering from mania
depressive insanity at the time of the
killing of Annis. Dr. Manson was
asked if any form of mental dis
ease would be called Insanity. The
physician thought it would.
Suffered "Impulsive Insanity."
"When Captain Halns stood on the
yacht club float at Bayside with folded
arms, looking out over the wa'-er and
then grabbed the boom of Annls' boat
and shot Annis to death, what kind of
Insanity was he suffering from?" asked
Mr. Dewitt.
- "With impulsive insanity," was the
reply..
"Were the refendant's mental func
tions in operation up to the time of
the shooting?"
"Yes."
The fact that the defendant- went
through Annapolis and Johns Hopkins
University was certainly not a symp
tom of insanity, the 'witness said.
