BRIGANDS RAIDED.
DISTURBED AT DEVOTIONS. Times and Sydney Sun Services. Received 20, 5.20 p.m. Rome, June 29,
A band of brigands had held the district adjoining Milan in a state of perpetual terror for four years. A squadron of the Carabinieri suddenly confronted the hand in the forest, and a fierce fight ensued, the brigands retreating to the recesses of the mountains after shooting the leader of the Carabinieri. In an adjacent grotto, the soldiers found a large store of provisions sent as tribute by the neighboring villages. Several crucifixes and prayerbooks suggested that the bandits were disturbed while at their devotions.
