PARIS THREATENED RIOT.

The Troops Withdrawn and the Com
nunists Shout Out Their Enthusiasm.
PARIS, May 25.-ln the riot yesterday
80 persons were wounded, but no one was
killed.
This morning the police expected and
were prepared for a renewal of the Com
munst riot at Pere la Cbaise Cemetery
to-day. Communist papers this morning
cried for vengeance upon the police and
troops for attacking and bayOneting the
people who attempted yesterday to make
a demonstration at the graves of Com
munists in the cemetery. These journals
in order to lncite the mob falsely asserted
that the soldiers during yesterdays riot
shot four COMMUNISTS dead. Threats
were made this morning to attack the au-
thorities with arms and dynamite. Extra
ordinary military PRECAUTIONS were taken
to prevent the mob from even starting a
riot.
To-day's demonstration had, up to 10
O'Clock tonight. however, been orderly.
TIE government withdrew the troops, and
allowed the DrOcessioniSts to march into
Pere la Chaise Cemetery with red flags.
The police also left the Communists TO
themselves. Henri ROchefOrt made his ap-
pearance, and was hailed by the paraders
with shouts of q" Vise Ia C0mmuRe." The
ppllcY Oi tue authorities IN Simply 1gnOf-
ing the demonstration is praised. The
Communists, not being opposed, vented
their enthusiasm, and allayed their blood
thirstiness in harmless shouts. They
claim, however, to have OVeraWed the
authorities, and boast OF their victory"
OUTBREAKS FEARED.
Grave outbreaks by Communists and
Anarchists are feared tomorrow. and un-
til after the funeral OF Victor Hugo. The
revOlutiOnists have been worked up 20 a
high state of excitement. 1t is reported
that they intend to erect barricadcs in
the streets.
A SENSATIONAL ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR.
LONDON, May 25.-The following dis
patch from Paris is another account Of
the demonstration Of Communists to-day:
"There was another serious fight to-day
between the police and Anarchists. A
large party of the latter went 10 Pore Ia
Chaise Cemetery 10 inter the remains Of
n reyolutonist named Gourmet. They
entered the cemetery quietly, but became
excited by violent OratiOns delivered over
the graves by liochefOrt and others. They
sailed cut from the cemetery with q red
nag flying, and the police made a rush TO
capture the flag. A desperate fight en-
sued, IN which knives were freely used
Several were wounded on both sides, and
many arrests were made"
