different parts of the city that hat been the
scenes of disturbances. The disorders on
the outskirts of Berlin were far more Seri-
ous than those in the center of the city.
Infamed by their eXcesses yesterday and
last night, the rioters, many members Of
whom had passed the whole night on the
streets. began to renew their disturbances
this morning. The law-abiding residents
of the city have taken alarm. and many Of
them do not dare 60 leave their dwellings.
The Disturbances Renewed.
At an early hour menacng crowds of
workingmen began to assemble in Inter
den Linden. There was strong force Of
police present, however, and they kept the
crowd Of idlers continually moving BY
noon the crowd was augmented 10 such ar
extent the police were compelled to charge
them to clear the streets. They met with
determined resistance, but finally dispersed
the rioters.
The mob in Kaiser Wilhelm strasse was
specially determined 20 hold its ground.
The police charged several times with
drawn swords and finally. after deter
mined resistance on the part Of the rioters,
who fought with sticks and stones, they
were routed. Quite q number Of the mem
bers of the mob were severely hurt and
all of the leaders fell into the hands Of the
police.
8Ieuacin- 9Tobs Assemble.
Several S0ciaiist.c meetings were held in
tie vicinity Of tie Bourse, and this fact did
not have IeassurlnE effect upon operations
there, as it was feared the mob % ght attack
that headquarters Of speculation, which is
held by many 10 be partly responsible for
tie bad times existing.
During the course Of the morning dis
orderly workinEmeu assembled 1t several
other points in the city. notably in the Wis

djsl ersed them with little resistance.
Seven Of the Tingle2SeTs Of the mob were
arrested.
Steiner Measures Advised.
Il is evident the soldiers are TO be used
against the rI0tOus element only as last re-
sort 10 establ sl order.
1t is believed by many people that owing
to the inadeQUaey OF the police force to
handle disturbances, though thus far tuejT
conduct merits the highest praise, the Gov
ernment should adept sterneT measures to
put down the trouble once for all.

lice at the castle gate and almost succeed ed.
when a force If mounted Officers arrived and
broke up the crowd, riding down and III uT-

outbreaks from the rioters
The Emperor Enragod.
The Emperor is furious owing to the
popular outbreak, ana especially at the
story that he was trembling with fear while
at the window yesterday looking at the fight
between the rioters and police. He was
very pale, but this has more likely been due
10 excitement than 10 fear. From the be-
haviOr Of the police in their encounter with
the rioters to-day it is judged that tho for
