| city is in state of intense excite.
ment over the election riots last

lowed. One observer says the streets
were literally red with blood. No on
ciai statement is made Of the number
killed and wounded, and pending auth
ority from the government, no unof1-
cial Or press statement is permitted

der. Thus far no single candidate OF
the republicans has been declared
elected, although the result in lot
districts is understood to be COM
plete.
