Lima, Peru.-The President of the
Republic of Peru, Guillermo Billing
hurst, was taken prisoner by military
revolutionistc.
The rebels suddenly attacked the
presidential palace under the leader
ship of Colonel Benavides. General
Enrique Varela, premier and minister
of war, was killed in the fight which
ensued
DR.. Augusta Durand, former revo-
lutionary leader, whose arrest was
sought by the police, took possession
of the palace. 1t is generally believed
that he will at once organize a new
government.
The attack ON the palace began at
half past four in the morning Thous-
ands of the inhabitants of Lima ran
into the streets, alarmed by the firing.
Squads of soldiers were ordered to fire
volleys into the air in order to prevent
the formation of crowds in the streets
and by this method they kept the pan
ic-strickef people moving from place
to place. In the vicinity of San Pedro
church a civilian bystander was killed
by bullet. Great alarm prevailed
throughout the city. Banks and stores
were closed and private houses barri-
caded. The street cars, however, be-
gan running before noon.
President Billinghurst was later
taken by the rebels as a prisoner to
Callao, from which port he will be sent
into exile in foreign country.
Peru's sudden revolutionary trouble
is due principally to Billinghurst's
earnest efforts to place the finances of
his country on a sound basis. His
scheme for doing this involved the
strictest economics throughout the
public service, and, naturally, proved
unpopular, particularly among office
holders, who saw their salaries and
estimates pruned with a merciless
hand.
Panama.-Mail adyices received
from Ecuador say the revolution in
the republic is gaining headway and
that Guayaquil the principal seaport,
is preparing to proclaim a new gov
! ernment. The province of Esmeraldes
is in the hands of revolutionists led
by Colonel Carlos Concha.
