More than 2,000 Indians are said to have been engaged in the attack, insurgents held Valladolld at accounts, having fortified them selves in the jail and other build ings. Federal and State troops and vol unteers numbering more than 2,ooo men, are concentrating at Ditas and are about to march on the rebels. Those engaged in the uprising are Chiefly Indians of the towns of Xocen and Cbichimilla, who never have been submissive to authority. Itcports as to the cause of the out break ?ire conflicting. Some declare that, lt began with a protest against certain orders issued by the civil of ficer in charge of the municipality, while others say that it was Hie re sult of a drunken spree. Col. Bonilla Montenegro, formerly at the head of the civil government of Valladolld. ls said to have been in command of the raiders. The first tjXtack was made on the building con Vr?ning all public offices. After sack ing this building the rioters turned their attention to Jefe Politico Itegil.. The slaughter began in the night, and lt was 2 a. m. when the attack was made on the building where many citizens had taken refuge. A bloody butchery followed. The wife of Regll left her four children and went to the assistance of her husband, seeking through her tears and prayers to reach the hearts of the infuriated raiders. Itegil was cut down before the eyes of his wife and his body hacked to pieces. The wife also is said to have been murdered, ns were all of the twenty men In the building. Later the six gendarmes In the town met a similar fate. The people were terrified. Many fled in the direction of Merida, the mob surging through the town cry ing for blood and pillage. Victor Ojed, judge of the first Instance, fell into the hands of the Indians and was assassinated. Fact? About the Baptists.
