quarters Explains
Desperate Situation
of Przemy si Garrison
WHY PROVISIONS
WERE EXHAUSTED
Heavy Fighting Between the Austrian
Belief Army and the Busslans
About Przemys! Drew on Fortress
for Large Supplies of Bations
General Headquarters of the. Austri
an Army, Tuesday, March 23, Via Ber
lin, March 25 and liondon, 12.45 P.
M.-—The Austrian garrison of Prze
mysl subsisted for 134 days on pro
visions designed to last for eighty
days. How it came about that the
groat fortress was supplied with only
this comparatively small amount of
{frovisions is an interesting story which
shows how unforeseen events upset the
calculations of the Austrians and
played into tho hands of the Russians.
Przemysl originally was provisioned
for the extreme limit which it was
thought a modern fortress technically
was capable of withstanding a modern
besieging army—namely about six
months. At the end of the first stage
of the siege the garrison had consumed
barely one month's supplies. Then
came the heavy fighting between the
Austrian relief army and the Russians
about Przemysl.
Supply Trains Fall to Arrive
The Austrian forces whose supply
trains failed to reach them, drew on
the fortress for large supplies of ra
tions. Furthermore, the great numbers
of wounded in these battles and the
soldiers stricken down by cholera and
other diseases could be sent nowhere
else. When railroad communication at
last was restored in mid-October, the
stores of the fortress had been largely
depleted. The railroad was first used
to forward urgently needed ammuni
tion. Hence, when the Russian steam
roller was unexpectedly set in motion
again, driving Field Marshall Von
Hindenburg westward' from the neigh
borhood of Warsaw and the Austrians
from Przemysl, provisions has been
coming in for the Galician fortress for
only ten days. This gave the defenders
rations for eighty days. These sup
plies might have sufficed had the Rus
sians resumed their battering tactics,
but they placed their reliance on hun
ger rather than solid shot to force the
capitulation of Przemysl.
Final Sortie Act of Defiance
The final sorties of the garrison was
a last act of defiance rather than a
serious attempt to 'break through the
Russian line, whicih was virtually im
possible for the hunger-weakened
force®.' There was a bare chance flhat
they would ibe able to cut a way through
and effect a junction with the Austrian
army in tho Carpathians aud when this
failed General Kusmanek, the Austrian
commander, received instructions to sur
render. When the end came tlhe last
■crumb had 'ben scraped from the store
houses, and horses as well as other
animals had 'been slaughtered for foo'd.
Bitter Cold Hastens Doom
Austrian strategists knew from the
outset how long the provisions would
last, and the campaign in the Car
pathians ihad as one of its aims the re
lief of Przemysl. But here again a
capricious fate intervened. The mildesu
'December known in years in these
mountains was followed 'by bitter
weatihef in January and February,
which snowed up the Austrian offensive
and left iPrzemysl to its doom.
The Austrian leaders realize that the
Russian army which captured Przemysl
will now "be released for service else
where and think it most protbaWe that
in due time it will appear on tho
Carpathians. Nevertheless it is not ex
pected by Austrian strategists that it
will exercise any considerable influence
over the general fortunes of war.

DANIELS PAYS TRIBUTE
TO BEAD NAVAL OFFICER
Secretary Writes to Parents of Lieu
tenant Commander Bricker, of
Chambersburg, Expressing High Re
gard for Young Man Who Drowned
Chambersburg, March 2's.—Secre
tary Daniels, of the Navy Department,
to-day transmitted to William H.
Bricker, the father of Lieutenant Com
mander William F. Bricker, of this
place a personal message of condolence
in which he paid high tri'bute to the
young officer who lost his life by
drowning last Saturday' night in the
Bosphorus off Constantinople. Secre
tary Daniels' message is as follows:
"My Dear Mr. Bricker: Accept my
deepest sympathy in the distressing
death of your son at Constantinople.
He met death in the performance of
duty in the hour of danger and thus
offered his life as a sacrifice foe hi*
country as truly as if he hu«l died in
line of b»fcfcle. I trust that this thought
will be one of real comfort to his
mother and to you and to all near and
dear to him.
"I knew your son quite well when
v hc was attached to the office of naval
intelligence, and came to esteem him
highly for lti« %bilitv, his fidelity to
duty," his lovable personality and hia
manly qualities. It was always a pleas
ure to me when some one mission ef
the day's work in naval intelligence
brought him over to my office. I grieve
with you that death hds so e»rly cut
short his promising career. With sin
cerest sympathy, Josephus Daniels,
Secretary of the Navy." M
Lieutenant Commander Bricker was
in command of the converted yacht,
Scorpion, stationed opposite Constan
tinople, and was drowned with three
seamen when a small boat in which
they were returning to tha Scorpion
was capsized in a gale.

IMMINENT PERIL
CMtlniml Cttn First Page.
The Kurds ordered all the Assyrian
males into the streets, tied them in
groups of five, marched them to the
graveyard and killed them barbarously
to the last boy. Girl babies and older
women were then executed with great
atrocity, while the younger women
were carried away us slaves.
20,000 Dead or Missing
As a result of the war 12,000 As
syrians are taking refuge in the Cau
casus, some 17,000 are d< -ribed us in
imminent danger at the Urumiah mis
sions. while 20,000 are dead or mis
sing. Furthermore much property has
been destroyed. The Assyrians fought
their assailants bravely and as long
as tliey had ammunition they were vic
torious. ,
The missionaries are untiring in
their efforts to help the people and they
are spending money to this end freely.
In TJrutniah they are disbursing the
equivalent of S4OO daily. Disease is
prevalent among the refugees.
U. S. Takes Up Matter With Turkey
The situation at Urumiah already
has been taken up with Turkey by the
United States. Secretary Bryan has
telegraphed American Ambassador
Morgenthau at Constantinople to seek
the protection of the missionaries and
! tlie refugees. Previous dispatches from
Djulfa, Persia, have described the
danger at Urumiah, but none of them
have given so much detail as the fore
going message from Tiflis.
The American missionary station at.
Urumiah is maintained by the Board
of Foreign Missions of the Presby
terian church in the United' States of
America. The station was established
as long ago as 183 a, its control was
transferred to .the Presbyterian board
in 1871. The work Las gone on there
without serious interruptions or mishap
to the missionaries. The force normal
ly at Urumiah consists of five clergy
men and one physician with their
wives and four single women.
Degree for Bed Men
The degree team of Warrior Eagle
