Maltese. A mob of natives collected on
the streets with sticks and made their
way into the great square, where they
demolished the immense pavilions and
furniture in the adjoining cafes. The
European subjects left the square and
took refuge for some time at the French
Consulate. The soldiers were called out,
but they looked on without interfering.
During the work of demolition and
bloodshed the mob sacked the shops OF
Europeans. Egyptian troops occupy al
points in the city. The quarter Kotherne
