The Jews of that city have decided not to buy any local fish nor employ porters who were alleged to have participated in the riot.
Christians at Haifa today issued a proclamation denying rumors of a dissension between them and the Moslems and saying that both were resolved to work together.
The Zionist executive today estimated Jewish losses as 126 killed or dead from wounds, and 217 seriously wounded. Of this total the executive said that 65 were killed and 62 wounded at Hebron, 30 killed and 46 wounded in Jerusalem and 16 killed and 27 wounded at Safed.
Arab and Jewish merchants of Jerusalem in a joint meeting of the chamber of commerce today decided to request the government to post guards in commercial centers to enable merchants to reopen their shops.
