Three persons were killed and six
wounded tonight when troops fired
upon rioting moslems.
General Hindu-Moslem conflict was
feared as riots between Hindu mill
hands and Pathans-lndian Moham-
medans continued.
The disturbances seemed to be
spreading southwark from the dis
turbed quarter, and il was believed
even more drastic measures than
thase ALREADY invoked would be neces-
sary to quell the fighting.
There were % known dead. most Of
them Pathans, while the injured list
exceeded log. Troops with fixed bay
onets patrolled streets while machine
gun parties were stationed at import
ant road functions.
The rioting began Monday when
stories were spread that Pathans had
kidnapped children Of Hindus to sac
rifice them in connection with the
construction Of a new bridge.
