. IS III HIT
NEW YORK, Sept 3.—Advices re
ceived here from Turkish and Arabian
sources tell of Insurrections among
the troops of the Turkish army.
At Konia, half way between Con
stantinople and Aleppo, when orders
were given to a contingent to entrain
for Palestine, the troops seized the
guns, large and small, and made for
tlie mountains, where they formed a
I new revolutionary center in Asia Mi
" nor They have so located themselves
that they command the main thor
oughfare between Constantinople and
Palestine.
In Smyrna and Aldin, some fifty
kilometers to the south, u similar re
volt has been inaugurated.
In the Caucasus the Turks have
been having a hard time to pluck the
fruit of the Brest-I.itiv.sk conference.
They are being resisted by the Kurds,
the Armenians and Georgians, and
have made little or no progress in
seizing the lands there.
