Story Of Bulgar Atrocities.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 30, 1912:
Irregular Troops Said to Have Massacred 150 Moslems at Kavala.
    LONDON, Saturday, Nov. 30.— "I am informed on unimpeachable authority," says The Times correspondent at Salonika, "that the Bulgarian irregular troops left in charge of Kavala after its surrender some time ago, alleging that the Moslems had plotted a massacre, arrested 150 of the Turks and slaughtered them, mostly with bayonets outside the town. This action was taken in spite of promises to protect the lives of citizens.
    "The irregulars further excuse the massacre by alleging that the Turks burned several villages before the entrance of the Bulgarians into the town of Drama, that 150 Christian families perished, and that a number of the leading Jews had been arrested and grave fears were entertained for their safety. They also allege that when the Bulgarians entered Sernes they were fired on by the Turks and an officer and two soldiers were killed. The Bulgarians thereupon began to clean up the town, massacring one hundred persons by the Moslem process."
