PILGRIM RUNS AMOK.
STABS FIFTEEN PEOPLE. CALCUTTA, April 18. One of a large party of pilgrims on the way from Calcutta to Juddah ran amok on board the steamer at Bombay yesterday and stabbed fifteen of his brother pilgrims. One of them died immediately. Asked the cause of his outburst, the pilgrim said he had been exasperated by being continually advised to put his money in safe custody instead of carrying it about loose.
