RISING IN INDIA,
MOPLAH DISTURBANCES SLOWLY SUBSIDING,
FAVOURABLE TURN EXPECTED.
SIMLA, August 30.
thar coluters Latest reports of the Moplah risings show
Malappuram, Calicut and Tarur are converging on Tirurangad. Reports from some districts indicate that the disturbances are slowly subsiding and a favourable turn in the situation is expected shortly. Attempts by members of the congress party in pacify the Moplahs have apparently failed. Local newspapers draw attention to the fact that the rising was not merely against the Government but against all non- Moslems, in consequence of which Hindus and Christians are organising bands with the object of teating off the rebels.
A DESPERATE ENCOUNTER.
LATER.
It is officially announced that detachments of the Leinsters and special pofice relieved Mallapuram and brought the garrison to Calicut. Particulars from Pukkatur show that a large body of rebels armed with sporting rifles, swords, and carbines made a demonstration of traditional ferocity and eagerness for death. They fought desperately for five hours before they were beaton of.
