CABLES FROM ACROSS.
The Holy Land is aflame under th<
mpetus of a mighty stroke by th<
3ritish, French and friendly Aral
forces, and the Turks from theJor
lan river westward to the Meditter
anean seemingly are in rout. Addec
o their already heavy losses ii
ground, men killed, wounded or mad<
irisoners, and stores captured ir
3elgium, France, Italy and the Bal
:ans, the Teutonic allies, judging
from first reports of the hostilities
>eeun aerainst the Ottoman in Pales'
ine, are in for further extremelj
:ard usage. In less than a day Gener1
Allenby's British forces, aided by
7rench troops and natives under the
'ag of the king of the Hedjas, struck
he Turkish line over a front of 16
niles and penetrated it to a depth of
2 miles, taking more than 3,000
i'urks prisoners and overrunning the
ntire hostile defensive system.?
The Serbian government is in posession
of documents proving berond
possible question that thouands
of Serbian prisoners have beer
old as slaves for a specified period
o Turkey by Bulgaria, Austro-Hun^ary
and Germany, according to a
Jaikan agency dispatch from Corfu,
"ho Serbians it was said were deivered
to contractors, who are enpged
on work in Asia Minor and
Anatolia. It is said they were subected
to terrible treatment anc
hat thousands have died from ty>hus,
Cholera and hunger."
A long-range American gun has
>een shelling Mctz, according to ofK'iai
entente cables, quoting German
ifficial press reports. The bom>ardment
has been carried on severl1
days and word has traveled
hroughout Loraine, despite German
ittempts to suppress the news. The
Germans say they have expected the
ong-range shelling for some time
tnd point to their guns which fired
ip Paris to prove that long-rangs
nnnon have made possible shelling
f cities at great distances. The Gernan
reports indicate the gun is located
near Pont-a-Mousson.
