LONDON. Feb. 90 q. m.-Fears are
entertained that the riots Of yesterday
will be renewed today. This is what
could bs naturally expected when the
immunity enjosed by the mob in its
work of destruction yesterday 10 oon-
sidersd. The police shoved that they
we're entirely possrlsss To cope with
such a force a. that with which they
we're confronted. In anticipation Of
another demonstration today small
crowds of roughs have been pouring
ia,o Trafalgar square from different
points Of the city, and At this hour the
crowd assembled there numbers folly
1000. Nons of the leaders. however, of
yesterdays disturbance have made their
appearance as vet, and whether any
proaram has been dstermiRsd on for
another outbreak 10 not known. The
West End today wears holiday appear
auce. A general feeling Of alarm and
insecurity is felt among the residents Of
that quarter, and most Of the shops are
closed. 1rsdesmen are indignant at
the lack of pFotoctisn afforded them by
the authorities, and at the impoteney II
the police. No instructions have been
given to the police as to what course to
pursue In the event Of farther outraees
by the mob, and the shopkeepers feel
that they are entirely unguaraed against
the pillaRe aud destruction Of their prop
srty. Though 1t is well kHovn Who the
leaders Of the mob are. no arrests of
any one CONNIE ted Herewith have been
made. Fradesmen propose TO send a
petition to the Home Oftioe demanding
that they be afforded proteetion from
the depredations OF the mob.
$3.50 D. m.-By 8 O'Clock the mob at
Trafalgar Sdaare Was estimated to be
1000 strong majority Of this great
throne is composed OF loafers and
roashs OF the worst class. Nanbers of
policemen are preseEt. but their efforts
TO control the turbulance Of the mob
has so far proved unavailing. They
have been unable 90 clear the streets,
and traffic IL for time brought to q
stand still. The spirit Of the moo to-
day is distinctly aggressive Every car
riags which comes within reach OF the
rioters is at once surrounded, and its
occupants hissed, heoted and insulted.
During the early part OF the afternoon
a gorgeous eQuipaee was driven near
the mob. Some one said the turn out was
the Lord Mayors. and the rioters at once
made rush for IL. seemingly determined

the equipage and it's occupants, and got
