yeritable battle occurred in tho VIA 0olh
traire Thousands of tiles and chlmneys
were hurled from the roots upon INC uo'p9
who were compelled to retire
A similar fight took place in the wa
Torino. and It ia believed that no fewer
than 800 were killed and 1000 injured.
A Swiss merchant who has arrived here
from Milan describes the events or Satur-
dav as completely anarchlsticaL Accord
tn,r to his account the leaders of the aglta-
tion evidently had wen arranged plans
Columns of rioters emerged from all the
gates of the town and converged on a CEN
ter where they rapidly constructed oarrl-
Cades. When they were diSlodged by the
troops they mounted the roofs and ralned
tiles and Chimneys down upon tho SOL
diery The gates of the town were held
by troops in the evening and throughout
the nigh, so that WOrkmen employed out
side were unable to return to their homes,
In this way the rising was deprived Of
additional help from without During the
night the city was IN complete darkness
and funereal silence. Artillery, cavalry and
infantry biyouached on the Piazza Del Du
Oma. where rc-enforcement9 were constant
ly arriving.
Late news this evening from Milan says
the Secolo has been seized and its editor
been closed and all dispatches of mails stop
ped The public buildings are guarded and
artillery has been placed in position on
the Piazza Del Du Oma. Many fugitive5
from Milan have crossed the frontier into
the canton of Tjcino and to FOntana,
among them being the editor of the Italia
del Popolo, the incriminated republican pa
per, who eluded the police. Eight thous1nd
troops axe Quartered in the city.
Another portion of the 1873 reserves and
n portion Of the reserves of 1874 have been
ordered to be under arms by Tuesday. At
this hour the city is quiet The govern
mentS dispatches received up TO y. IN.
say that tranquility prevails throughout
the Kingdom.
At Milan the rioters at the Porta TicinIz
have been completely suppressed, re-en-
forcements continue to reach the city and
many arrests have been made, bat General
TaGa has ordered all the factories to re-
open tomorrow.
Other dispatches from Milan report, on
the contrary. the erection Of fresh barri-
Cades by riotous mobs in the VIA Bertani-
at tho Porta IiCinez and the Porta Carl
baldi. According to these accounts the
troops are compelled to use arms TO dis

more. in view Of what seems a recently
growing sentiment here favorable to a pol

to be in town with a dozen mounted
soldiers to arrest members of the COM

The officer had been most efficient
in suppressing lawlessness in the sub

to have completely lost his head and
also to have involved the junior aid

and intelligence, assures me that his
informants told him that Lieutenant
Merriam was not drunk, but merely
kept telling people to move on or off,

After investigation the following

They met two days later and decided
