EUROPEANS ARE STONED
Belligerent Natives Riot In Street!
and Defy White Police of Bom
bay "Emancipated India"
Shows Ugly Spirit.
CALCUTlU. Aug. 15. (Special.) A
British officer stationed in the Madras
Presidency says:
'"Residents In out - of - the-way dis
tricts nere will tell you that there is
a regular system of discourtesy to Eu
ropeans bfing taught and practiced
among the younger Indians of the pres
ent day. 1 speak from careful observa
tion of the last few years. I note par
ticularly that there Is much greater dis
order being practiced under the cloak of
religious ceremonial than I can recol
lect for many years previously anywhere
in Northern, Central or Southern India.
Formerly the noisy tom-tom and blare
of musical instruments In the streets
merely marked religious ceremonies, such
as marriages, etc.. but we now hear the
strangest devil-shouting and devil-dancing
you can possibly Imagine, without
any ostensible reason. All sorts of weird
and signiticant antics and sounds are
performed nightly in the open streets,
under the very noses of native police
men, who are, of course, dumb and dis
creetly unaware of what it means. The
demeanor of the participants in these
ceremonies Is anything but pleasant,
when you happen to pass them.
"There are no people so innocent of
harm in their lives, whose existence
costs so little suffering to their fellow
men and to dumb creatures as the true
Indian, but the true Indian, as we used
to know him, seems to be disappearing.
The orthodox Hindu of an older genera
tionthe strict vegetarian, Innocent of
blood, ever courteous, old-school native
refuses obstinately to accept the modern
manners and modern ideas of the young
er generation of "emancipated India,"
but all old schools die out."
Lauded as Hero by Mob.
The "Kesari" sedition case at Bombay
has been attended by extraordinary
demonstrations, Tilak, the aocu-ied Na
tionalist, being, of course, lauded by the
mob as a hero. One of these Scenes la
thus described by an eye-witness:
"A Bengali, dressed In an orthodox yel
low robe of the Hindu priesthood, stand
ing on the wall of a well on the maidan.
with a large crowd of about 800 to 100)
men about him, stood violently gesticu
lating, while one of his admirers held
an umbrella over his head and two or
three others fanned him. He ppoke on
the subject of the arrest of Tllak and
said Bepln Chandra Pal was sent to Jail
In Calcutta. Ho rotted In prison; when
he came out of Jail there was a bomb
explosion. Khudlram Bose was the first
In Bengal . to throw a bomb. He had
been sentenced to death. He was going
on, 'There were others for religion, Tilak,
Maharaja' when a tremendous shout
arose of 'Tllak ki Jal.' "
At this point armed and mounted po
lice were called out. The violence of
the crowd increased as the preacher and
others proceeded with exhortations, and:
a climax came when some 6ti00 persons
swept from the maidan across the road
and appeared likely to rush the com
pound of the police court.' In which were
gathered a small group of European po
lice officers and a body of armed police.,
As the crowd surged round the entrance
of the compound stones were thrown at
constables and wild threats were uttered.'
Eventually orders for arrests were
given by the senior superintendent pres
ent. The European officers at once
charged into the crowd and effected six
arrests, not, however, without resistance.
Several officers received bruises and Sub
Inspector Gerrard's face was struck by
a stone and cut so severely that his
cheekbone was exposed. The crowd, af
ter the arrests, fell back upon the mai
dan and were kept on the move by the
sowars of the mounted police.
Mob Stones Whites.
Vs'hen the day's proceedings were over
Tilak was quietly removed to Jail, but
the mob were under the Impression that
the prisoner was still in the lockup and
would not disperse. The crowd now took
up an actively hostile attitude. Every
European that happened to pass by was
stoned and traveling by tram and vie
torlas was not safe, as the occupants
were stoned. The glass windows of many
tramcars were broken and passengers
inside were injured. A clergyman, who
was- passing along the road in a victoria,
was very badly hurt and escaped further
injury only owing to the driver of the
carriage galloping his horses away at
full speed. Armed police finally cleared
the crowd.
One humorous1 incident in connection
with this outbreak remains to be re-
corded: As a Bengali agitator, attired ii:
the habit of a Sumyasi, was adresslng;
the crowd on Swarajya, he felt a Jerk!
at his pocket and, turning round, found
one of his attentive compatriots trying,
to ease him of his purse. The agitator's,
attention was then divided between ad-1
dressing the crowd and keeping an eyo'
on his purse and watch, which he thence-'
forth had to hold in his hand. ,
HAS FAITH " IN BIOGRAPH
Gabrielle d'Annunzlo Writes Soulful
Plays for Machine's Use.
PARIS, Aug. 13. (Special.) Though,
a very soulful poet, Gabrielle d'Annun-j
zio ia up-to-date. His latest idea- is;
to write a series of works in semi-,
dramatic form, to be recited simultane-:
ously with the showing of the action;
by bioscope films. iJ'Annunzlo declares ,
that the bioscope has a great futur
before it as an educative influence, and
he is convinced that by its means ha
will be able to reach a far larger pub
lic than Is obtainable ....uu&ti ,.,e me
dium of literature pure and simple.
Moreover, he hopes that the moving
pictures will enable him to realize im
aginative effects whicli would be quite
impossible on the legitimate stage.
