MASSACRE OF EUROPEANS
Slaughter at Casa Blanca Outcome of
Arabian Holy War.

Tangier, Morocco, Aug. DIR.
Merles who arrived here on the Ger
man ship which brought number of
Jews and other refugees from Casa
Blanca, is the bearer of a report to the
French charge d'affaires here showing
that the slaughter of Europeans in
Casa Blanca was an outcome of a holy
war preached by the Arabs for the
determination of Europeans.
On Monday number of Arab chiefs
entered Casa Blanca and demanded
that the harbor Improvement works
cease The pasta of Casa Blanca
pointed out that this work was being
done with the sanction Of the sultan,
whereupon the chiefs replied that the
sultan was no longer their ruler, as
he obeyed the Christians. They then
began to incite the natives to exter-
inmate all Jews and Europeans.
On Tuesday morning the natives
began their attack by stoning Euro
pean and when this man tried to flee
he was surrounded and hacked to
pieces. This was the signal for an
other attack and as soon as the dan
ger became known the French and
Spanish residents rushed to their re-
spective consulates for protection.
During this flight at least eight were

SIDEWALK COLLAPSES.

More than 400 people, men, women
and children, were tumbled into heap
at ST. Paul by collapse of a sidewalk.
When the firemen went to their as
sistance the writing mass of human
ity was four or five deep, grooming
and yelling with fright.
A blaze in the house Of Patrick
Reany, 934 Conway street, attracted
the crowd. Nearly the entire juvenile
population of the locality, with many
men and women, had followed the FIRE
apparatus to the fire. The home of
Mr.. Reany is in a hollow about six
feet below the sidewalk A crowd had
gathered on the sidewalk when about
half block of sidewalk slid from I'M
der the feet of the spectators.
The boards of the walk slid down
the slipping hill and crashed into the
fence about the house, tearing it away.
The spectators fell in a heap and
rolled down the embankment. The
cries Of the young people brought the
fremen to their aid and in short
while all were able to get out of the
mix. No one was injured seriously.

Paris, Aug. Exchanges between
