EASTER IN PALESTINE
FESTIVAL SEASON SUBDUED MORE MURDERS AND OUTRAGES REPORTED. OIL PIPE LINE PUNCTURED AND IGNITED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Copyright. (Recd This Day, 12.10 a.m.) LONDON, April 15. The “Times” Jerusalem correspondent says the great festal season is subdued owing to the state of the country and the exclusion of the public from the Holy Sepulchre. Seventy shots were fired at a Mayor's house. There were no casualties. The exclusion of the public, except a small party, from Calvary, marred Good Friday for Christians, but the clergy held ceremonies. Jews visited the Wailing Wall and partook of the Passover under the shadow of Jewry’s trials. Gangs murdered four Arabs in various places. Fourteen cases of sniping are reported and the oil pipe line was punctured and ignited.
