Thereupon the lat- ter bolted and fired upon the police, who pursued them. The policemen were un- hurt, but a bullet pierced the heart of a youth, Daniel Ward, who was among those who had warned the police, and he fell dead.
 'The fires in some instances were quickly quenched. Others in cotton warehouses burned fiercely the night long. One in the south end and another in Bootle, at the north ends are taken as proving that there was careful organi- zation. It was found that all the locks on the warehouses had been cut with bolt cutters. Many empty petrol cans were found on the scene Each fira started at more than one place. At one timber yard there were three separate outbreaks"
 It appears that for each building marked for destruction there were ale lotted gangs. numbering from four to five men, one of whom stood sentry while the others cut the locks and ap- piled the inflamma bles.
 Many fires were suppressed in their early stages, and in these cases there was clear evidence of incendiarism on the finding of rags soaked in paraffin and empty petrol cans and bolt cutters left behind, The most destructive fires were ir two large cotton warehouses on either side of Jordan street, which were not until o'clock this morning, where the buildings were completely de- stroyed
 It is impossible to estimate the total but it is known is will run into hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Ten resolutions were adopted which in many respects bring a reorganization of Zion ist activities. Great powers are placed in the hands of the national executive committee, which will determine the functions of the Palestine department which will have full charge of Palestine activities.
 The committee also will organize groups of Zionist districts which will not be I1l ta t1,, fla .,-a ton unless they fulfill such requirements as the committee shall prescribe.
