SURPRISED BY THE REBELS.
THE BRITISH TROOPS IN GREAT PERIL.

AN UNEXPECTED ENCOUNTER NEAR sUAKIM-ovER
1000 ARABS KILLED.
SUAKIM, March 22.-While detachments of Eng
lIsh and Indian inf,ntry were making a zareba
seven miles southwest Of Suakim to day, they were
suddenly surprised by rush of Arabs, who had
been massed and concealed in the defles west Of
Hasheen. The English formed square as quickly
as possible, but the camsls mules and horses were
driven back in confusion on the troops,
causing stampede, and amid clouds Of dust
the Arabs penetrated the south and north
sides OF the square. Meantime the marines
and Berkshire Regiment, which were on the east
and west sides Of the square. maintained contin-
uous fire, holding the enemy at bay while charge
OF the cavalry and the fire from the guns at the
Hasheen zareba checked the onslaught of the
Arabs, which at the onset threatened serious dis
aster to the British. General Graham reports that
the English losses so far as known are two officers
and twenty-five men killed, and thrty-three men
wounded. The losses of the engineers transport
corps aud Indian troops have not yet been reported
An unofficial estimate places the British killed at
52 aod wounded at S5. Nearly all the casualties
are due to spear thrusts received in hand-to hand
engagements. The Arabs got between the transport
train and Zareba, speared the of The transport
aRely, refusing 10 give or take quarter. General
