rows of houses have been ruined The Governor
has proclaimed that the artillery will destroy
any building in which people fire from the WIN
doWs The troops have been using macnlue
guns and martial law prevails over the whole
town
It is difficult for any correspondent to supply
an adequate report of events because ii is
dangerous to approach the windows. ana IL Is
impossible to look out The number of killed and
wounded must be enorIn4i:s. All the foreign
consulates are protected by soldiers.
