SLOWLY STARVING.
PLIGHT OF GREEK REFUGEES. HEAVY MORTALITY. By Telegraph.—Press Assn —Copyright. London, March 6. The Morning Post’s Belgrade correspondent says that an English colonel visited the Greek refugee camps at Salonika, where there are 14,000 Russian fugitives of Greek descent and languages. Venizelos brought them there for the purpose of colonising the desolated. districts of Thrace and Macedonia. They are housed in old British huts. The Greek Government now sends refugees nothing and they are slowly starving. Death carts come each morning and collect 50 or more corpses which are first stripped of their rags by the other refugees and then plunged into pits.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
