THE PALESTINE CAMPAIGN DISQUIETING RUMOURS. IN REGARD TO GAZA FIGHT. PERSECUTION OF THE JEWS. HARSH TREATMENT INCREASING. jUnited Service.) Received Mav 21, 3.25 p.m. LONDON, May 20. There is much comment at the official silence in regard to the Palestine iwiipaigii. The Pall Mall Gazette says the sequel suggests that the Gaza battle, was much less favourable than the official reports indicate, and the impression prevails that the objective was not obtained, while the casualties were high. The strictest martial law prevails in ,i ; tis.iieni, where tiie schools are closed ;»r.l newspapers prohibited. The official archives and treasures have been hurriedly taken northward. The Turks are brutally treating foreigners, and the Jewish Society in Palestine has telegraphed to the Socialist Congress at Stockholm that the Turkish Government has ordered the Jews to evacuate Palestine, including Judea, Jerusalem, and Galilee. The order is being enforced with increasing severity and pillage, threatening to culminate in a massacre similar to that in Armenia. gOLDIERS' £OMFORTS' pUND PATRIOTIC ECTURE: "50,000 MILES IN A HOSPITAL SHIP.
