vigorous prosecution Of the Lyons rioters.
The Government is accommodating evidence
which leaves no doubt that the disturbances
were part of a concealed plan to cause revo-
luton in France. The leaders of the agita-
ton in Paris. Lyons and Clichy were recog-
nized as men who taken an active share in ex-
citing the populace at the time Of the Boulan-
ger affair. and the authorities are confdent
that the motives which actuated that conspl-
racy were at the bottom of the May-Day dis
order.
Advices from Rome states that the Govern
ment proposes a general expulsion or deporta-
ton Of Socialists, anj the deputies who took
part in the riot of Friday are to be punished
severly. The press. however, recognises that
the circular of Baron Nicola prohibiting
organized professions Of May-Day was IN
some degree provocation TO vio-
lence, and calculated rather to create
disorder The Socialists and Anarchists
seized the opportunity TO make the working
men think they were oppressed and this led
to the outbreak, which was rather spontane-
Gus than the result Of organized action. The
troops are accused by the Radicals of needless
violence in responding with firearms and u
bayOnet charge 10 a harmless vOley of stones
Rome is reported quiet. but bodies of lnfan-
try aid cavalry companies TO patrol the
