ALEXANDRIA, Sept.23, (Dispatch to The London Morning Post.)--British
refugees from Urfa who arrived in Alexandria yesterday brought terrible
tales of suffering of interned allied subjects. They were not supplied
with food, furniture, or servants, and were housed in an Armenian
monastery the monks in which had been massacred.
They witnessed the Armenian massacres of Aug. 19 Urfa was the center of
ghastly scenes. The Turks systematically murdered men and turned women
and children out into the desert, where thousands perished of
starvation.
The last batch of women and children left Urfa on Aug. 24. They were
delayed a fortnight at Alexandretta awaiting a ****p in fifthly quarters
and half starved. They finally embarked for Alexandria in an American
war****p.
Two hundred Jewish refugees from Juffa also arrived yesterday and 400
determined on the extermination of Zionists, and has sworn no Jews will
reenter Palestine.
