Lo.vno.v, Jan. 31.-Tho Constantinople correspondent of the United Press, telegraphing underdnte of January 2d, says that letters have been received from Marash confirming the stories that great slaughter occurred iu the recent battle between the Turkish troops and the Armenians, who hud captured and held the town of Zeitoun. The exact number of the dead is not known, but it can be stated with certainty that it was very large. ( Twelve hundred men have ti! ready reached Marash and many more are following them to that place. Many of the wounded have died, either in Marash or along the road from Zeitoun. A number of prisoners have been taken to Marash. Their treatment was something awful. All sots of indignities were heaped upon them, and in a large number of cases they wore ' so shockingly ill-treated that it is impossible to publish details. j
