J SIS. 1 mm GREEK- ARMY RETIRING; PES-MAY ACT (Coebsued Ttom Pw Ou) sent Jby Admiral Bristol when Consul Genet-el Hortcm announced that Ameri can property worth millions of dollar and the lives of 200 Americans were In danejsr.; Signs of the ruthless war so typfcal of the East wsre seen as seoa as the destroyer ten Constantinople. VILLAGES ABIAZE v - Along- the entire coast Turkish vil lage set on fire by the retreating Gree t troops were ablaze. Greek res idents, fearing reprisals, were all flee ing; and many of them who had em barked on small craft were met by the Litchfield. Fortunately the sea was calml and the chances are that they reached the Greek Islands in the Aege- an sjea In safety. The panic-stricken refugees had not had time to save their belongings and the men on the de stroyers could see the frail boats tight ly packed with women in silk garments andtnen scantily clad, but all carrying rifles. Many of the terrorized inhabi tanti of Smyrna also departed by sea eeforb the arrival of the Turkish troops. EUGITITES BLOCK BOAJ V'TWs writer never saw a more thor oughly defeated army than that of the Creeks In this war. Last Wednes day (the correspondent made an at tempt Jo reach Manissa. but he was forced by the tide of fleeing Greeks to rjeturn to this town. A powerful motdr car which should have reached Manissa ln three hours was compelled to turn back after having .made 11 miles In. four hours, the compact masses of retiring soldiers making - further progress Impossible. . Haggard, shabby men in uniform, mounted on donkeys. camels and horses or riding In old buUock carts ; and accompanied by a crowd of women I with) children in arms, following the army on foot, were pouring towards ' Smyrna. LEA'TS. B CBS! KG COCIfTBT They were leaving behind them a : burning country, the Greek staff hav ing ordered that all the towns and ; villages evacuated by the army should i be destroyed. In four hours your cor respondent, saw at least 5000 men and , counted not more than five officers. Men who found their rifles embarrass ing threw them into the ditches, from whl h they were picked up by women - who hoped to exchange them In town -for a loaf of bread. v -Allied officers who. have been with .-' the 3reek army for two years are un- ' able to understand how the Greeks eould suffer such a crushing defeat. The extent of the collapse did not be come known sooner because the inter- V mU4 censors in Constantinople, fol lowing the instructions of their gov ernment, did their utmost to prevent ,-the Inews from leaking out and tried ; to-rhinlmixe the disaster. CAtrSE &F BREAKDOWN The' breakdown .of the Creek army r was due mainly to- the following licenses : . .. 1. The commander-in-chief. con vincH that he would not be able to de ' featLth Turk .decided that the bulk , of tjhe army should be transferred to Thrace with a view to keeping that province at any cost and 'eventually to tak Constantinople. In the course of , the last six months the soldiers were given to understand that the evacua " tiort of Asia Minor- would take place t and that many of them would be able .to return to their homes... Then, when the were asked to tight; they refused .because they could not see why they : shoikld shed their blood for a lost cause.

It would be ridiculous to maintain the present BUltan .there while all Asiatic Turkey defied his authority. On the other hand, the jealousy of the powers would prevent any one of them from permanently occupying it. Several unofficial suggestions have beei made. One Is to place Con stantinople and the neutralized straits under the guaranship of the League of Nations or to a combination of great powers. Henry Morgenthau s recent sugges tion is exceptionally interesting and statesmanlike. ' The powers should administer Constantinople in trust un til it can become the seat of govern ment of the Federated Balkan States of the future. It is certain that Great Britain will accept no solution which does not guarantee neutrality in the militarised straits to the commerce of all na tions. COVETS CONSTANTINOPLE; CAK'BRITISH HALT PASHA (Special Dispatch to The Journal and tht Chicago pau j Nws (Cooyriaht. 192J1 Paris. Sept. 1L The next question after the .fall of- Smyrna Is the fate of Constantinople. Muslapha Kemal co vets it and the French and Italians think he should have it. Will the Brit ish succeed in barring out the Turks as the French succeeded several weeks ago in barring out the Greeks ?. A French expert said to the writer today : "A policy of reaiisra, that Is, the ability to make the best of events as they are, forms tha vital trade mark of statesmanship. Sooner or later the al lies must, cede Constantinople and reap endless, complications in India and North Africa. Lloyd George has court ed disaster by under-estimating the Turkish power in Asia Minor. Let us hope that he will do better in Constan tinople." ALLIED C03T81JLS MEET KEMAX, TO MAKE TERMS Washington, Sept 11.L N. S.) Allied . consular officials, including American, are meeting today with Mustapha Kemal. the Turkish leader, at Casaba to arrange terms for the formal Turkish occupation of Smyrna, according to a dispatch received at the state department today from Admiral Bristol. American high -commissioner at Constantinople. APPEALS TO LEAGUE Geneva, Sept. 11. (J. N. S.) Greece today appealed to the League' of Na tions to intervene in the Near East for protecUorf of Greek Christians In Turkey. U X ft, -."-V - V" Si,' A. THREE POSSES IN ' SEARCH FDIiFIEIIO WHO TORTURED 7 Tacoma, Sept IU CO. P.) Three heavily armed bodies of men Monday morning began, .beating' the, brush in three thickly wooded areas of South-; west Washington in search of the -fiend, of Schneider's Prairie." The fiend who brutally attacked and tor tured Mrs. Harry CHara and her four daughters and pn and. Joe Dobson. a neighbor- boy, for four hours late last Thursday night and Friday morning at the CPHara home at Schneider's Prairie, eight miles from Olympia on the eheiton highway, is being sought wit desperate tenacity. . s Notified that a man answering the description of the maniac had been seen near the Westbo bridge, on ". the road from Tacoma to Puyallnp Sunday evening about :30, a squ4 of police with Rawed -off shotguns started searching the brush immediately. They were soon Joined by deputy - sheriffs and armed volunteers, and a large pafty organised. EVEBY BOAD WATCHED Every road around the bit of woods was watched Sunday night Combing of this part of Pierce county started Monday morning. The search here was started by a motorist, who said that while his machine was stalled near the lonely bridge on the Puyallup road's man dressed In -dark clothes and wearing a khaki shirt that ap peared to be covered with blood passed nearby. He challenged the man, who at once drew two revolvers and waved them threateningly, and than disap peared in the brush without a - word. The man wag carrying a pair of over alls rolled under his arm. In the edge'pf the military reserva tion of Camp Lewis, mr the Nia qually river, another search is being made by soldiers and deputies from Olympia, This search started when Sergeant Ralph Lord of the military puuee reporcea seeing a man acting suspiciously ear the southern end of the reservation about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon. MOUNTED MEW Olf SEARCH irty mounted men from Camp Lewis, under command of Lieutenants G. S. Deadrlch and L D. Yeatort, start ed the hunt. Sheriff Ray Hoge of Olympia, joined the hunt with another posse. The deputies worked down the river, while the soldiers beat the brush from the ofher direction. Larger bod ies of soldiers were to join the hunt today and go through every foot of cover large enough to hide a man. While these two hunts were going on a third that had started early Friday morning in the woods a few miles from the O'Hara home was still In progress. 10 CITIZENS OS TRAIL M5re than 200 Thurston county citi zens, most of whom have been watch ing roads and following forest trails in search of the fiend for more than 36 hours, are keeping up their patrol. Scores of Olympia residents have Joined the hunt,' taking the places of men who are worn out by. their efforts during the three" days and two nights that have elapsed since the crime was committed. It is believed la Olympia that the fiend may have escaped to the water's edge between Olympia and Oyster Bay, or may have found a boat If this proves to be true, he will be noticed by some rancher soon, as that part of the state Is sparsely settled. And a stranger would attract, attention. Thej are few stores in that district, too, and a fijgltlve woiild be 1 forced sooner or later to ask for food at some farm. CHECK UP HOTELS r Olympia officers started Saturday making a completer check of all the rooming nouses in towns and TBgging camps, which are also being searched. Tacoma deputies 'arrested one sus pect Sunday at Midland. The man gave his name as Eminett Brightman, 16. He wore brown overalls, but car ried a pair of blue overalls. It is not believed that he is'the man wanted for the crime. , L. S. May, private detective of Seat tle, made a careful examinatlon-of the O'Hara house Saturday and obtained fingerprints from ths chimney of the lamp. He said that a man answering the fiend's description had been brought to Tacoma by-a motorist . Sat urday night The man had asked, for a nde near Nisqually. - The man ap peared to be extremely nervous and left the car on entering the downtown section of Tacoma. MRS. O'HARA TO RECOVER It was stated la Olymcia Mouday that Mrs. O'Hara, though sufferinjr rroma severely fractured skull, will recover. .
