Crowds OF electors have thronged the court

parties kept assidious watch. There wa,
no excitement or hustle anywhere. Tele
grams from the provinces reported squa
tranquility. After o'clock the pollins
places were thronged, but still perfect ordel
prevailed. The crowd we've good humored
and there was no apparent tendency tC
disturbance. The authorities had taken
elaborate precaution against riot, but
there was no display OF force in the streets
Soldiers were kept in readiness in barracks
and the police were massed under cover at
various points, with instructions to remain
inactive unless compelled to interfere. The
clergy in Monmartz ordered prayers in
Boulanger's favor.
There was riot at Avignon. A crowd
forced the doors Of q building occupied by
the Boulangist committee, burned the vot-
ing papers and set fire to the building.
Thence the crowd went to the Boulangist
club, broke the doors, wrecked the furni.
ture and drove out the members. At IL D.
m. Boulanger had been elected at Mon
martz, in the first Seine district. Another
ballot will be necessary, no candidate hav-
ing received the requisite majority. In St.
George, Pantheon and Faubourg Thonare
districts another ballot will be taken. Re-
turns from the provinces are coming in
slowly. Venet, minister of justice, is
elected in the second district OF Lyons. In
other divisions OF Lyons, second ballots
will be necessary. In all divisions OF Bor-
deaux second ballots will have to be taken.
In first district OF Barre, SImfried, Repub-
lican, is defeated, and Marchand, Boulan-
gist, elected. I
There was great uproar at the Offices of
the press in Montmart " here the announce
ment of Boulanger's victory was displaye
on transparency. The news was received
with mingled cheers and boots by rival con-
and as riot seemed imminent,
police and mounted guards charged upon
and dispersed the crowd. Several pers ons
were arrested.
