Persons fleeing from Palestine who arrived here reported that new attacks occurred last night and Monday morning at Haifa. A great many were killed and wounded, they said.

On Monday morning Arab bands attacked a train carrying troops to Haifa. The rebels succeeded in disarming some troops. The gravity of the situation is continually increasing. The latest developments in Palestine indicate that the disturbances are gradually assuming the character of an Arab revolt against the Palestine government.
