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.

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

would be materially easy, but the dif
ficulty is to determine who would
then become the possessor of Constan
tinople. 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.

Paris. Sept. 1L The next question
after the .fall of- Smyrna Is the fate of
Constantinople. Muslapha Kemal co

think he should have it. Will the Brit

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

Turkish power in Asia Minor. Let us
hope that he will do better in Constan

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.

STATUTE MAT BE BAR
Airtl that, as well, raises a cuestjon
that will have to be solved before Hall,

gain a place on the official ballot
There Is a statute which, provides spe
cifically that any person who sought a
nomination iar any. office at the ert'
mary election and was . defeated . may
not become an Independent candidate.
The statute Inhibits the -secret aary of
state. In this ease, r from certifying
Hall's name to the county clerks for
place on' the .ballot.
It Is contended by the supporters of
Hall, however, that the statute is un
constitutional, in that it abridges the
right of aa elector to become a candi
date for office should be he desire, and
also that it works to. prevent electors
bf the state from nominating a man of
their choice should that man havt been
a defeated candidate the preceding
primary election. v .

Secretary of State Koser says that
should- Hall accept, the nomination he
will -submit the question ta the at tor?
ney general and be guided by his de
cision. Should' the attorney general
advise him that the law is good, then
Koser would refuse to certify his name, 1
and it would be up to Hall and his foU
lowers to bring mandamus proceedings
to test the law. Should the attorney,
general determine that the law Is un-
'constltutional and advise that Hall's
name be put on the ballot, then Kozer
would certify it, and It would be up
to the supporters either of Olcott or pf
Pierce to bring Injunction proceedings
against the secretary of state and at?
