Last night was quiet. The curfew order was well observed. It is officially announced that 36 natives and 12 Europeans, including An Italian girl, were killed and 191 of both parties wounded.

The Spanish and Swedish judges were attacked outside the Mixed Courts, but the native movement is more anti-Greek than anti- European genorally.
