HUNGRY WORKMEN.
A FIGHT IN BRUSSELS. STREETS



and Have Battle with
the Police.
There was procession Of unemployed
workingmen through the streets OF brussels
on the Goth which resulted in scenes Of vio-
lencc.
at an carly hour men began to gather from
all points In the city. After great confusion
the limo started No estimates have been
made us to the humber participating, but Ia
view Of the crowd, 1t was fortunate that they
had no firearms. As II matter OF course the
socialists had much, II not all, to do with the
procession and when II started many men
began to sing socialist songs. The procession
pissed through number Of principal streets,
growing nolsicr and more demonstrative as
it was found that the police did not interfere
Finally the mob stopped In front Of large
bakery and attempted TO take the place. The
police were alert for something Of this sort,
and number Of them were quickly on the
scene and prevented the looting OF the shop.
The police allowed two men to enter the bak-
cry and ask for bread. They demanded food
| and met With prompt and decided refusal.
They then returned TO the street and the mob
marched on yelling, shouting and threaten
ing.
Finally the mob became SO dlsorderly that
body OF 200 police attempted to dlspersc
them. The mob resisted and desperate
melee occurred, In which rolleys Ut stones
were thrown at the officers. Several Of tho
gendarmcs were badly injured. The police,
with swords, charged the crowd and inflicted
sword cuts on the rioters. The procession
was finally broken up, but even then isolated
patches of the rioters continued fighting for
hours. The leaders OF the mob were captur-
| ed by the police.
The affair has caused much excitement in
the city, and 1t is feared further trouble will
occur.
Revolutionary hand-bills have been scatter
| ed broadcast and posted on walls and trees.
In the bills the leaders exhort the men who
cannot get work TO so from house to house In
