Docks have been built, buildings have been erected military roads, unsurpassed anywhere, have been constructed from Valona throughout Albania by Italian engi neers, he said. The general described how the Prince of Wled, placed on the Albanian throne by the powers, was overthrown, and a republic set np with Essad Pasha as president. He, too, was forced out, and the little country was left a prey to Austrian Intrigue from the north and the machinations of the pro-German King % Constantine of Greece from the squth. On Christmas day, 1914, the Italian government, fear ing possible developments In Albania, sent the 10th regiment of bersaglleri to occupy the little fishing hamlet of London.-—Parm, the first city of any size retaken by Admiral Kolchak’s All-Russian army from the bolshevikl, offers a great study In “red” atrocities.

In the garden of a seminary, where bolshevlst chieftains were wont to bold their revels, the bodies of two dozen schoolgirls already have been recovered. -These girls, ranging In age from twelve to sixteen, were first a t tacked by "red” officers, «hen when the fiends had tired of their orgy the vic tims were killed by being tapped op the head with a wooden mallet. This seminary garden Is one con tinuous grave of naked bodies and skeletons. Identification of the vic tims Is Impossible. A Russian countess and her daughter were tied to posts In this garden, stripped of their clothes, then killed by a succession of dagger pricks all over their bodies. A dozen priests were crucified head downward; two others were boiled la oil. Hundreds of the upper classes of the city, men, women and children, sentenced to death without trial, were taken to the edge of a swamp outside the city and given their choice of flee ing Into the swamp or being shot down whore they stood. Many dashed I Into the swamp, only to be engulfed In the quicksands. The others were shot down nt the edge of a ditch.
