LONDON, Sept. 9.—The Sofla corre- spondent of the Times says the Insur- gents have laid up large stores of provis- fons in the mountains and even contem- plate a winter campalgn. The suffering to the women and children thereby en- tafled would be appalling, but the insur- | gent leaders believe that the {ll-clad Turkish troops will suffer more: than themselves, owing to thel rinablility to obtain supplies In a devastated country with interrupted communications. He continues: Any interference on the part of the powers seems past yraying for. Russia and Germany are urging the Suitan to adopt more vigorous methods of repression, while the other powers have apparently no advice to offer and comtent themscives with the attitude of disinterested spectators. R BLAMES THE CHRISTIANS. Official Turkish Account of the Af- fair in Beirut. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—A cablegram from the Turkish Foreign Office to Che- kib Bey, the Turkish Minister Lere, gives the following versiem of the trouble at Beirut on Sunday, reported by Admiral Cotton in his dispatch to the Navy De- partment: Some Christians of the city of Beirut at- tacked four Musselmans and during the melea which followed four persons were Injured, Three of these were soldlers. Two persons are dead, one of whom is also & soldfer, The Minister called on Secretary Hay during the day and gave him the con- tents of his dispatch, Late to-night the Minister received a dispatch from Constantinople character- izing as “absolutely false” the published reports that there was no security in Con- stantinople and of massacres and the set- ting fire to houses in Roumania. This digpatch was in reply to one sent by the Minister calling the attention of his Gov- ernment to the reports of this character, Another dispatch received to-night says &2 o that' thirty-one Bulgarian brigands wers | riot occurred on | killed in the vicinity of Resne (Monastir) 1 forty others on a farm at Florina A band of rebels entrenched on a small elevation at Lapschick was dispersed. RS 2 jr MAGELSSEN A BRAVE MAN. Details of Attacks Upon the Ameri- can Vice Consul. BERLIN, Sept. 8—The Egyptian Ga- zette, published in Alexandria, Egypt, has published detalls regarding the re- cent attack upon United States Vice Con- sul Magelss It says Magelssen was riding home in a hired carriage in the | evening when, on passing a street near the Bas Beirut (a headland about three miles below Beirut, on which stand the buildings of the American mission), he heard sounds of pistol firing. He turned about to see whence the shots came and a bullet whizzed past his face. The Vice Consul at once had the car- riage stopped and jumved out to discover hig assailant, but could see no one. The following day he went to the Govern- ment office, where he met the Italian Consul and the Austrian Consul, who had come to complain about burglaries to their houses. The Governor ordered an investigation of the attack on Magelssen, but the only result was the arrest of a young Chris- tlan who had attended a marriage on the previous night and in whose possession was found a toy pistol. The American Vice Consul indignantly refused to accept the arrest of this man and decided to visit his brother-in-law, the American Consul General, who was staying in the | mountains to the north of Belrut. The Egyptian Gazette mentions that three months previously Magelssen was attacked by men in Turkish uniforms, but whom by his strength he put to flight. The paper adds that it is very dangerous for Europeans to appear on the streets of Beirut at night. Murder and pillage are daily occurrences and many families have moved to Egypt. L T B WASHINGTON GETS FACTS. Admiral Cotton and Minister Leish- man Report on Beirut Tragedy. ‘WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—The Navy De- partment has received the following ca- blegram from Admiral Cotton, dated at Belrut, September 7: Violence and bloodshed between Mohamme. dans and native Christians vccurred at Beirut on Sunday. Six Greek Christlans, two Mo- hammedans and one Turkish soldier were killed, and three Greek Christians, three Mo- hammedans and three Turkish soldlers wound- ed serfously. Other murders are reported. A flag lieutenant and the United States Consul were present on Sunday and Monday in the disturbed quarter and verify details of this statement. The Turkish Government willing- ly afforded facilities for their investigation and promise 1000 more Turkish = soldiers. The Turkish soldiers present are sufficlent if prop- erly disposed of to handle the situation at Bel- rut. - The cfty is well patrolled and all was gulet Sunday night and to-day (Monday). The Turkish Government promises to do all in its POWer to restore order. Business is suspend. ed. I have prepared to land a force for the protection of the property of American citi- zens if the situation demands. Will act with caution. The last sentence of Admiral Cotton’s cablegram is unintelligible and the cipher experts at the Navy Department worked all the morning to translate it. Coples of the report were sent at once to the President and to the State Department.
