INTERRAClAL WARFARE.
Military Puts Down Feud Between Ar
nenlans and Tartara.

St Petersburg, Sept. s.-Interracial
warfare and incendiarism have done
their work IL, Baku and have complet-
ed the ruin for year of the great oil
industry Of that Caspian port, though
the latest dispatches Indicate that the
military has gained the upper hand
In the town itself and that the. steadily
arriving re-enforcements promise to
turn the tide in the outlying districts
and to enable the troops to drive the
Tartars from their positions around
the city and to reoccupy the suburban
towns.
There Is little left unburned above
the ground in the outlying oil fields Of
Balakhan, Romani, Sabunto and Bible
bat, from which the crude oil supply
for the Baku oil industry is drawn.
All the extracting plants, including der
ricks, pumping establishments and the
oil reservoirs in which the crude oil is
stored. have been destroyed.
The breaking of the reservoirs I'M
loosed flood of burning oil which it
was impossible to extinguish. A large
portion of the "Black Town" quarter,
In which most of the refineries were
located, was also burned The finan-
cial loss has not yet been established,
but it wilHrun into the millions. 1t is
stated that the loss In crude OIL which
viii run waste until the reservoirs can
be rebuilt and the refineries again
started will amount to 100000 daily
The bloodshed also has been appall-
ing. as the troops in their efforts to re-
store order had to defend the APP
proaches to the town Of Baku and
were forced to fight regular battle
with well armed natives In which ar
tillery was employed The Tartars
and Armenians in their fury turned
their weapons against each other All
the we'll to do inhabitants fed either by
sea or overland to Tifiis.
Unlike the recent troubles at Odessa,
the disorders at Baku cannot be
traced to any underlying hostility to
the Russian government 1t is not a
revolution, but an interracial war be-
tween the Armenians and the natives
based on the same causes as the strug-
| gle in Armenia.
