Chailla for their defense After plum
dering the Moorish and Jewish quar-
ters the Arabs found that they must
first drive away the guards around the
consulates. which would place the
European shops and stores at their
mercy. 1t needed all of the courage
and resources of Lieutenant de Tys-
sers who, with thirty men. was sent
ashore from the French cruiser Cali
lee, to save the situation. The Arabs
occupied a deserted French hotel near
the British consulate line, and also
close to the Spanish consulate, from
which they poured furious rifle fire.

were cOUpIetelv routed.
