Lisses of Italians m"i Two BDaya' Fighting SGreater Than' Offiially R.ported. 'A despatch f rom London uSYs: Pour h undred Italians were killed or wounded ini the figiting arOund IWripoli on Monday and Tuesday, but &Il newepaper coirespondents were forbidden W communicate the extent of the casualties, according to a newis agency despatch received here on Thursday f rom Tripoli which escaped Italian censorship by being filed at Valetta. The situ- ation at Tripoli, the despatch adds, is seriona. 'European residents fear a massacre, as a holy war bas been proclaimed by the natives of Tri- poli and Benghaz. At Sharashett the le! t lne of the Italian defence Io rcported as being hard pressed by the Arabe. The Ara.be who attackccl the Italians' rear on Monday hAd en- tered Tripoli in diaguise, and their outbreak caused a terrible panic. Firing in the Estreets w~as general. Non-combat.ant mnen, women and eidren were mixed up with the oombatants. Crowds fiocked to the ahore and oobarked in emall boata. The Consulates were packed with terriûied Europeaut. The. situation is described as precarieus, and the Italian outposte are nervout. The military arrangements are bad. The wbole force occupies a semi-circle, whose ends rest on the seashore. There are no reservee in the town and only twco warsliips romain off the city. The left wing je still bard pressed, and if it be broken the situation will be As grave as pos- sible. The Consuls are realizing the possibility of the breaking of the left wing and fear that a mais- sacre will follow. They are arrang- ing for Eurcpeaner k board shipe if it becomes necessary. Fresh troope ta the number of 1,- 100 with t.hirty guns arrived un Wednesday and landed near Sha.r- zet to strengthien the lett. It ie re- ported that 5,000 Tuareg tribeEmen are advancing on Tripoli and an- other battie is expected. The A rabs on Thursday madle a violent attack agaiuet the Italian positions between El Mesri and Boumehana. They were repulsod with heavy loss. The Italia-n casti- alt.ies were only a few wounded.

Whether it hias alw&yâ been or was brouglit by Italian immigrante is mottÎd.finitoly known, but that it wae brouglit by the immigrants eemus most probable.
