Martial Law
for Gold Strike

JOHANNESBURG, July 5.-Martial
law was proclaimed by the British
authorities here today, although by
noon the city had become quiet and
no further firing was audible.
The utmost activity prevails at po
lice headquarters where many eiti-
zens have been sworn in as special
constables and are provided with
rifles and fifty rounds of cartridges.
Bloody riots connected with the
general strike of the gold miners
the general strike of the gold miners
on the Rand, which caused the death
of four civilians and Wounding of
fifty others in a fight yesterday be-
tween the strikers and troops, con-
tinued throughout the night.
At midnight a mob looted gun
smiths store and firing became gem
eral. Squads of cavalry with drawn
swords frequently charged groups of
rioters, who constantly collected
again to loot the stores and to destroy
the electric lamps, the light from
which helped the troops to discover
the disturbers' whereabouts.
Firing was incessant for hours after
midnight, and many further casual
ties occurred, but it was impossible to
obtain accurate details.
The police and troops showed great
restraint throughout the affair.
