MAY DAY SCARE
Police Of Paris Certain That No
Disturbances Will Occur

However, the Authorities Are
. Taking Precautions to Pre-
vent Riots.

PARIS. April 3O.-It is still thought by
he authorities that despite recent occur
epces there is no likelihood OF any troubles
occurring in France in connection with the
forthcoming May day demonstration. In
he first place, May day falls on Sunday
which is habitually day of rest among the
working classes, and although the munich
pal elections are held throughout France
except i'll Paris, which is governed by
pecial law, on the same day. there appears
o be no probability that they will lead to
any disturbance
Notwithstanding this, preparations arc
being made OH great scale to put down
possible disturbances On Sunday, in order
shat not a moment will be lost if their
services are required the horses of the cav
airy Will be kept saddled and bridcd from
day break. The men will also be equipped,
a and as soon as 'boots and saddles" is
q sounded the regiment will be ready to
n sallop to wherever they are summoned.
q After tonight all the troops will be con-
"a fined i'll their barracks to await orders.
a Every man will be ready for instant
service. Their arms will be piled and each
soldier will carry thirteen packets of ball
a cartridges. All the public buildings and
monuments will be guarded by soldiers
"a placed at intervals. while Others will be con-
eealcd to prevent their direct contact with
q the crowd until it is necessary.

OUT OF HARMS WAY.
M ADE1p, April 30.-The secret plotings
SoIthe anarchists to make trouble on May
DAY in Barcelona received u severe blow
sss to-day. Proclanations couched in the
en- most violent language had been stealthily
"a distributed by the workingmen's associa-
Nj tons throu- h the workshops the city, and
these were followed by an out an out an
b !archst manifesto, calling upon working
;sn1en to rise and wipe out capitalists and
81 sSemployers of all kinds. The authorities
were assailed with q very imaginable cpl
ti,et and were detied to do their worst
Nothing, it was declared, could prevail
against the workingmen if they would rise
HE en masse and they were catled upon to as
ssert their manhood. The police were ap-
Sssprised of the existence of the manifesto and
they acted promptly. Every workingmens
club in the city was surrounded by police
and a raid was then made upon the occu-
pants of the club rooms. The result was
VI the capture of large number of anarchists,
Who will lose their liberty uutil after May
