Enfa9ed Mob.

and the din arose as of a horde of
savages. Windows were broken and
the noise aroused the officers of the
secret service in the adjoining room,
who rushed to the scene, but did not
fire on the crowd, fearing they might
kill some of their comrades of the po-
lice inside. They contented themselves
with firing shots from the windows,
thus calling together the police on the
neighboring corners, who were ordered
to prevent any persons leaving the city
building.
Meantime in the room above a
frightful tragedy had been enacted
Many knives were plunged into the
body of Arroyo, who. of course, was
entirely helpless. Main Inspector
Valesquez had just left the national
palace where he had been accompany
ing the family of the governor of the
federal district, when he heard the
firing and went directly there Over
twenty arrests were made and all were
locked up incommunicado and have
not been released pending strict in
quiry which is to be made. The ques-
ton has naturally arisen why the Of
ficers guarding Arroyo did not carry
their revolvers, but it is explained that
they had nothing to fear of the pris-
oner, who was quite helpless. The
body Of Arroyo had been dragged to
the balcony with the evident purpose
of throwing it into the street. Arroyo's s
arms were badly cut as he had evi-
IDENTIFY struggled with his murderers.
When the tumult had subsided the
body was taken to the fourth police
station, where an examination was
made, showing great gaping wound
in the left lung, a deep wound in the
left side, one on the right shoulder
and others on the arms and feet. There
were nine wounds in all. One of the
gendarmes was wounded in the fight
with the mob. Officer Sanchez suffer-
ed contusions from being trampled

CAMP ANAYAT, (via Pankajora)
Sept. 17.-8 p. m.-Severe fighting has
taken place between the Second brig
ade of Gen. Bindon Bloods division
and the Mohmunds. The British loss
was 140 killed and wounded. The brig
ade had moved out to attack the
Mohmunds in the valley north of the
camp, to punish them for the assault
Tuesday night upon the force of Gen.
Jeffreys at the foot of Pawat pass.
The Bengal lancers found the enemy
entrenched on the hills about eight
miles distant. The Thirty-ffth Sikhs
was ordered to make the attack. The
regiment was supported by four guns
of a mountain battery and by six COM
panies of the Bluffs. The Sikhs drove the
enemy into the hills, but eventually
fell back upon the Bluffs before su-
perior numbers. The enemy then ad-
vanced against the left %f1ank, drove
back the cavalry and surrounded a
company of Sikhs. The cavalry
charged brilliantly and relieved the
Sikhs; and the Guides, coming up,
swept the enemy back. The force
halted for some time, destroying the
enemy's towers and then retired.
A company of Sikhs on the hills to
the extreme right, was hard pressed
and was running short of ammunition,
when the general officer commanding
moved the Guides forward to their re-
lief, which was gallantly accomplish
ed The Guides carried the wounded
Silhs back and executed the with
drawaI in good order, though the
enemy pressed them hard.
Darkness came on before the force
reached the camp, and the Guides,
with Gen. Jeffreys and his escort of
Bluffs, became separated from the
column which passed them in the
gloom. Gen. Jeffreys remained with
the guns and took up a position in a
village The enemy had occupied a
part of the village, and the force not
being strong enough to eXpel them,
they had inflicted considerable loss on
the little party before M. j. Wortlidge,
with two companies, each composed of
Sikhs and Guides, came up and COM
PEELED them to retire.
A large body Of cavalry left the
camp and brought in the whole detach-
ment. Capt. Birch and Lieut.. Watson
behaved with great gallantry. Lieut..
Hughes and Lieut.. Crowford were
killed. Lieut.. Watson, Lieut.. Cunning

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Sept. II.

Dyea to carry his outfit of $50 pounds
across the pass for 38 cents per pound.
At Sheep Camp they struck for As
cents per pound, but Brown forced

wrangle which disturbed the other ten
ants of the building. The women's
wounds are not dangerous. Mrs. Cook
has gone to her fathers home with
the baby and the nurse. The weapon
with which the women were attacked
is supposed to have been an axe. Mrs
Cook will make no statement. Cook
denies that he tried to kill the women.
The trouble with his wife is believed
to have sprung from jealousy.
