By Electric Telegraph.—Press Association —Copyright. (Times. —Sydney Sun Service.) Received 5.20 p.m. CONSTANTINOPLE, May 5. The Turkish military arrested three Slav milkmen in November charged with killing fifteen Turkish soldiers and violating Moslem women. There was overwhelming evidence that they never left Constatinople during the war. The Servian Minister applied for their release and was assured they would be immediately liberated. Irritated at the delay he reiterated his request to the Porte for them to be officially liberated when he discovered that the prisoners had been previously shot.
