ister of public works. Dr. Momtchllo
Ntatchltch. who his been charged
with the expenditure of the ad?
vances from the American govern?
ment.
l>r Nlntdhltch had been telling of
the various uses the American money
win put to. for the 136.000 Serbian
prisoners In Germany and for in?
terned civilian*, refugee* and pen?
sions. But now he turned to a story
of tee cruelty and butchery which
ihm Bulgare are still prosecuting
against the Serbs.
*Herbia has suffered more than any
ether country," said Dr. Nkntchttch.
?Tor not even the ruin of Belgium
and the devastated regions of Franca
can compare with what Serbia has
ewffsrsd. The people of Belgium and
Prance had seaports to go to and es?
cape in ships, and they had railways.
But the Serbian people had no porn
tor escape, and when the Monaatir
railway Una was cut by the Bulgara
thov had no railway. So they wer?
literally caught in a trap, with no
means of egress, and except for those
who mads the exodus across the
mountains, the whole peasant popula?
tion hOa come under the control of the
Bulger Invaders. Moreover Belgium
and France have been under the eyes
ef England and America, while Ser?
bia la cut off from the world, with
no knowledge of what goes on there,
and no mall from there for two years.
"The Serbian peasants have been
stripped of everything. All their
horses, cattle and live stock has been
taken, and their farm machinery has
been destroyed. Men, women and
children have been killed In the most
revolting manner, and on the most
flimsy pretext. In this the Bulgara go
far beyond the Austrian*, for the
Austrian* have a . trial and a formal
roadernnation to death. But the Bul?
gare have no trial or condemnation.
The order to kill la given, and the
soldiers are practically free to take
'life on their own Judgment without
any, order."
As documentary evidence of this
kU)tng, the Serbian ministry of for?
eign affaire have had photographs,
copies of which were given to the
correspondent showing six Serb peas
sal* strung up side by side from
rough etakes driven in the ground,
with a cross-piece above for the noose
while groups of soldiers and officers
sre gathered shout, laughing over the
contortions of the victims.
"The Bulgar policy is to consider
Serbia an t the Serbian people as an?
nihilated." Dr. Nintchitch went on.
"To this end they hold that the Serbs
no longer exl*t, and every Serb must
become a Bulgar. take a Bulgar name,
end become a Bulgar citlsen.

situation Reported letter. With1
Only Forty-five New Cases of
Measles.
Greenville, Nov. 20.?Quarantine
regulations against the city of Green?
ville were put into effect at Gamp Se
vler today, where measles and pneu?
monia have been prevalent among the
flintier National Guard troops. Ac?
cording to latest figures available,
there are approximately 1,300 cases
of measles, 400 of mumps and a num?
ber of spinal meningitis. Three
deaths occurred today from menin?
gitis, one from pneumonia and one
from combined measles and pneu?
monia. The dead are: S. B. Varner,
Jr., I Company, and Hammond D.
Hicks, Machine Gun Company, One
Hundred and Eighteenth Infantry,
both of South Carolina, and the fol?
lowing from North Carolina: Clarence
W. Nortis. A Company, and William
L. Wallis. K Company, One Hundred
and Nineteenth Infantry, and Carson
E. West. One Hundred and Fifth En?
gineers.
It was impossible to get the home
addresses of the men from the mill*
tsry authorities. The general situa?
tion at the camp was said to be im?
proving, especially in regard to
measles, and from apparently reliable
sources it was learned that 46 new
cases of measles- developed today, be?
ing slightly le.sa than the overage of
the past several days.
Greenville, Nov. 21.?Two addition?
al deaths were reported at Camp Se
vier today, but medical headquarters
of the camp announced that condi?
tions showed a decided improvement.
minister continued. "This has come
in u letter from a well known teach?
er. The revolt was really a revolt of
women?of the Serbian mothers,
wives and ?Isters?in a frantic pro?
test against having their sons, hus?
bands and brothers forced Into the
Bulgnr ranks to fire on Serbian sol?
diers. This women's movement bo
came so threatening that a German
division at Nlah was sent to quell it.
When this failed, two Bulgar divisions
were sent against the increasing ranks
of the revolt.
"This gave the Bulgars the oppor?
tunity to perpetrate a new infamy.
qSendlng their troops against the wo?
men, they took as prisoners a large
number of the wives, mothers and
sisters who had protested agaim-t
their men being taken us Bulgar sol?
diers. Then these wives and mothers
were formed in ranks; placed ahead
of the Bulgar divisions, and in this
battle order with the Serbian women
in front as a screen for the Bulgar
troops?these divisions pushed against
the main body of the revolting peas?
ants. It was only by such methods
of using the women as screens, and
by resort to the most extreme cruelty
that the revolt was finally put down.
In one case, the writer of the letter
gives details of teeing a Serbian peas?
ant hung up by the tongue."
The minister spoke of the increas?
ing needs of these Serbian peasants
during the conning cold months. These
Serb* who have escaped, and who are
here at Corfu and at various B?lkau
points, can send little or no relief, for
they lost everything and have noth?
ing to give.
"It i* for this reason," said the min?
ister, "that the funds advanced by
the Untied States government un?
truly providential, and are saving Ser
bian lives, thousands of them."
The advance made by the United
States was 15,000,000 francs, or |3.
000.00ft. This was designed to cover
a period of three months; und at this
rate the advance for a year would be

distribution of these funds is under
the dlreoUoti of Dr, Nlntenltob, with

Washington, Nov. 20.?Concessions
made by both the railroads and the
heads of the four brotherhoods as a
result of the present wage issue is
taken by olllclals as complete assur?
ance that America's warfare agains'

the president for such decision as he
may deem necessary and of the
brotherhoods to mediate any questions
of wages, it was pointed out today,
have not been limited as to time. They
will be effective until peace is won.
Officials believe that such unquali?

eliminates whatever chance there
might be of a traffic strike due to
misunderstanding and the coming ne?
gotiations, commencing Thursday n'

The management of the St. l^ouis &

GERMAN AHMY DETERIORATING.
An English Officer Writes of Revelu
tlons by German Prisoners.
Liverpool. Oct. 31 (Correspondence
of The Associated Press)?Evidence
that the German commanders are
well aware that the German army la
deteriorating and that they have to
try to keep it together by terrifying
their troops is given in a letter writ?
ten by an officer of a Liverpool regi
ment to one of the local newspapers.
Expressing the opinion that the "col
lapse of the German will come soon,"
he added:
"The best cure for pessimism wouLi
be a few days in the front line
tienches. There are no pessimists her^
except among the German prisoners.
"The last time our battalion was in
action we took quite a number of
prisoners, and they were a dismal lot
One non-commissioned officer with
whom 1 spoke told me that large
numbers of the Germans simply will
not face our fire, but refuse to attack
His own company had been under fire
't
for nearly five days, and at last they
had signed a round-robin to the com?
pany commander to say that they
could not stay any longer. Two of
I he ringleaders were arrested with the
idea of making an example of them,
but their comrades- demanded their
release with such energy that the of
ficers had to give way. Later on the
men repeated their demand to be
taken out of the front line. The of?
ficers ordered them back to duty, but
the men refused. The officers threat?
ened the soldiers, who replied by kill?
ing all but four of the officers ami
inarching over to the llritish lines to
surrende r.
'When this particular battalion was
moved up against the British, the
men had to be bullied into fighting by
being sent into action in front of u
moving barrage, which meant certain
death to all who lagged behind.
"On another occasion recently, our
Liverpool regiment had a fierce light
which snded up with a strange ex?
perience. We had heavily engaged
and driven off in panic some Germans
who bad been holding a strong po?
sition. Moving on to the next objec?
tive, another party of the enemy ap?
peared. We felt certain that we were
I In for a rough experience, but the
truth was that this bunch wanted to
surrender badly, and they had made
a pretense of advancing to a coun?
ter-attack with the object of getting
near enough to us to be sure of pro
leetlon from their own officers,
"When the Gorman command
found out what bad happened, they
k? nt forward a gn at body of reserves
with order to recapture our prisoners
Heavy gunfire rained on us. of which
the prlnsoners got a good share. The)
begged us hard to save them, and w?
did all WO COUld. Hut at one stage
we were nearly caught, when the ene?
my suddenly turned on a party of
liquid lire ex;.cits. Fortunately we
were alert ami charged at once, cap?
turing the whole liquid tire outfit
There ensued terrible row between
ihe earlier prisoners and the men we
had taken with the liquid lire outfit
The (IrSI prisoners wanted to kill tl"
liquid lire men. We bad our bands
full getting them all back."

Feeding 1/jhs Corn to Horses am
Mules.
How can we save corn for humai
food and for feeding hogs and cattk
to produce more meat ami dairy pro
ducts for human food? The horse
and mules of the South are fed al
most exclusively on corn as a graii
or concentrate feed. These horse
and mules do light work or none a
all for more than half the yeur. Whei
doing no work they can be maintain
ed on legume hays without any con
and, even when doing light work, le
gume hay and a small amount of con
should suffice. When the roughage i:
corn fodder or grass hay* these Witt
one to two pounds of eottonseec
meal a day should do for Idle horse
and mules. We (-an save a IgTgl
amount of corn by a more careful ust
of legume hay, cottonseed meal and
other feeds Cheaper than corn, when
the work stock is idle or doing only
liKht work,
When corn is high-priced it may
easily pay to grind it if the cob is
ground with it. The cob must be
ground rather tine if it ?s to be of
I mic h feed value. But If by grinding
the car corn the feeder is induced to
mix a few pounds of cottonseed meal,
or other feed rich in protein, and
thereby save corn and also make a
better feed, there is no question
about it paying to grind the corn Rut
whether the corn is ground or not
corn can be saved by substituting
cottonseed meal for a part Of the
corn. Pour pounds less corn a day
may be fed by adding two pounds of
cottonseed meal and a better ration
obtained. If the horses and mules of
the South were fed 5 pounds of corn
and 1 pound of cottonseed meal for
every 7 pounds of corn now given
them they would be better fed and
the change would save about ioo,
000,000 bushels of corn In a year.?

The Rev. 5, T. Fowler introduced a

The bishop called tne twenty-sec?
ond question relating to the passage
of the character of the ministers and
completed the call. The reports were
made by pres-i ling elders and pastors,
which showed unprecedented results
financially. The Charleston and Or
angeburg districts reported all salaries
and claims fully met with a large sur?
plus. Practically all ministers have
been paid thci; .salaries and the most
of them have received a surplus. Such
a situation has never before obtained.
The Rev. J. C. Counts and the
Hev. J. C. Da;,s, two of the veterans
of the conference asked for a super?
