Eeling 8 Bitter Against the Servians
REPORTS from Sarajevo dated June 30 describe mobs destroying three Servian homes and seizing bombs. Military and police fired on rioters and bayoneted them, sparing Servians from lynching as two hundred Serbians are killed or wounded in Mostar during clashes with Moslems. Serbian shop windows are smashed, public buildings guarded by artillery, and a German body is stoned in the street. Bosnian papers are suppressed while assassins of Archduke Ferdinand are watched to deter further action.
