Atrocities By The Servians.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 22, 1912:
Slaughter of Albanian Men, Women, and Children Is Alleged.
    VIENNA. Nov. 21.—Lieut. Wagner in a dispatch to The Reichspost reports that while he was at Nish he heard well nigh incredible details of barbarities committed by the Servian troops on the Albanians. A Red Cross doctor with the Servian Army said to him:
    "The Servians gave no quarter. All the Albanians, armed or unarmed, as well as the women and children who fell into their hands, were mercilessly killed. Gen. Stephanovitch, the Servian commander, had the Albanians captured at Kratova formed into two rows and shot dead with machine guns. The General remarked. 'We must extirpate these Austro-Hungarian favorites.'
    "Gen. Zikovitch also had 950 Albanian and Turkish notables cut down near Sienitza. After the battle of Kumanovo numerous wounded Albanians and Turks were buried with the dead.
    "Several Albanian women suspected of throwing bombs at the Servian troops entering Verisovitz were killed by the Servian troops, who battered in their skulls with the butt ends of their rifles. Another Turkish prisoner was beaten to death in the hospital at Nish, and one was maltreated and kicked by the Servians until he was dead."
