night \ crowd numbering fully ten
thousand persons met for the purpose
If holding a meeting Ia express anti
American sentiments. The authori-
ties had issued an order forbidding
the holding of such meetings. but
no attention was paid To it.
The gcndarmcs at the bull ring
refused To allow the mob to enter and
were told that they were traitors to
Spain. Then several persons in the
crowd cried Long live the Republic"
whcreupon the gendarmes charged the
mol. The crowd answered with sew
eral revolver shots, one of the gcnd-
armes being seriously wounded in
the chest. The situation had as
sumed such menacing aspect
that orders were given tn the
gendarmes to fire upon the mob. A
vollcy was fired from the carbines ear
ried by the gendarmes and the crowd
scurricd for shelter. IL is not known
positively whether anybody was shot
or not. hut il is believed that the volley
was fired over the heads of the rioters.
Later the courage of the crowd re-
turned. and with augmented numbers
the mob marched through the streets
shouting: Long live Spain, death
TO the Yankees"
The police and gendarmes repeatedly
opposed the crowd, but their efforts tn
restore order were not of the slightest
avail. The governor of the province
then proclaimed martial law and any
further rioting will be dealt with stern
ly by the military power.
The governor. acting under impcr-
ativc orders from Madrid. had concen-
trated strong force around the Amer
lean consulate. The crowd attempted
to pass these guards, hut We're unable
