ASSISTANCE SENT BY SPECIAL TRAINS { NAPHTHA WORKS DESTROYED BY FIRE AND ALL OTHER FAGC- TORIES CLOSED. | s St. Petersburg, Sept. 8.—The des- perate condition. of. affairs at Baku is shown by a telegram from the gov- ernor of Baku, who has sent an urgent dispatch to Tiflis saying that his troops are surrounded by Tartars and | will inevitably be overwhelmed unless immediately relieved. The oil wells at Balakhan, Sabunto and Nonani, near Baku, have been { burned out, but the fire continues at Bibiebat. Tiflis, Caucasia, Sept. 8.—All the naphtha works at Baku have been de- stroyed and all the factories and other i works there are closed. The military authorities are hastening measures to cope with the desperate situation at Baku. Artillery has been dispatched from here by special trains. The prices of benzine, ‘kerosene and their residues have risen enormously. The present supplies will be exhausted in a few days. The 7Tartar movement in Northern Caucasus is said to be directed prin- cipally against the government. BRITISH SUBJECTS SAFE. No Attacks Being Made on Foreigners at Baku. London, Sept. 8.—Telegrams from Baku say that the British subjects connected with the oil works there, numbering ninety to a hundred, are all safe. There is little apprehension of danger from an attack, but it is dangerous to appear in the streets owing to the promiscuous firing con- tinually being exchanged between the Tartars and Armenians. FIERGE FIGHT AT BALAKHAN HUNDREDS KILLED OR WOUNDED IN DESPERATE ATTACKS ON THE MILITARY. Baku, Caucasia, Sept. 8.—The prin- cipal fighting is not in Baku itself but at Balakhan, where hundreds have been shot by the infantry and artillery and where 1,000 were killed or wound- ed during a desperate attack on the military camp and provision depots. The troops sustained few casualties. A large number of workmen barri- caded themselves in the Balakhan hos- pital. The soldiers began the attack with rifie fire and then stormed the hospital and completed their work with the bayonet.

Washinglon, Sept. 8.—Word was re- ceived at the state department during. the day that President Castro is con- tinuing his campaign of hostility against tie foreign interests in Ven- ezuela. MNinister Russell cabled to the department that Castro has closed the French catle offices at Caracas and elsewherc along the coast. All cable- grams now have to be sent by gov- ernment ‘and line to La Guayra, from which point they are relayed to the coast and forwarded by another line. For this service Castro exacts a toll of 20 cent: a word, although the gov- ernment line 1is only twelve miles long. The state department officials be- lieve that the French government will promptly resent the closing of the cable office and that trouble will fol- low. g Castro claims to be merely execut- ing the order of the court, which de- clared that the cable offices should be closed because the company had failed to live up to the requirements of its contract with the Venezuelan govern- ment.

The engineer and fireman of the regular train were those killed. Nearly all the injured were on the excursion train. © -
