did with the personal experiences of

blc scenes he had witnessed as the re-
sult of intoxicating liquors, and his
closing remarks Were a strong and
very earnest plea to all to shim the

PARIS, Sept. 8.——0fllclal advices re-
ceived by the Foreign Office here give
brief details of the outbreak at Beirut.
The killed number five or six and many ,
persons were wounded. The city is
in an intense state of agitation.
The outbreak occurred during the
night of September 6 between Chris-
tians and Mussulnians. The fighting
was furious, firearms and knives being
used. The ltalian consul rescued one
Christian, who. had been stabbed and
who had fallen in front of the door
of the consulate.
This was the first information re-
ceived here showing the really serious
condition unveiling at" Beirut. It ,
caused much apprehension in oilciai “
ounrters, as being an indication of the
disorder In the Turkish empire. The
presence of the United States cruisers
Brooklyn and San Francisco at Beirut
is regarded as a fortunate circum-
stance. lt to expected that a number
of other foreign warships will gather
there. ,
