Revolutionary Fighting in Panama and Venezuela

On July 29 the revolutionary forces in Panama attacked the government position at Agua Dulce. The slaughter of the revolutionists is said to have been excessive and barbarous. The rebels are reported to have had over 200 killed. Several days later a report from the scene of the engagement stated that the battle was still in progress. Fighting still continues in Venezuela and it is reported that the president has abandoned the eastern part of the republic, concentrating his forces in the west, where they are hard pressed by the revolutionists.
