PARIS, July 4.-Riotous demonstra
tons were made by students today at
st. German des Pres and in the Rue
Jacob near the Hospital del Charlie.
The police were unable to dispense
the mobs. Eventually large
detachment of cavalry charged an d
scattered the students. The disorder in
the streets increased hourly. The whole
district bounded by the Boulevard st.
German, the river and the Rue de Seine
Is in an uproar. Students with
crowds of roughs fill the open
are stopped by the mobs. The
pas sengers are turned out and tue
vehicles are upset. On the Boulevard
ST. German, Quai Voltaire and the
Rue St. PeerSe traffic has been suS-
pended. The Rue st. PereSe has been
barricaded. The charity hospital has
been surrounded with cuirassiers
to keep off the students who
threatened to attack the building. The
ministry of public works, the marine
department aud the Ecole des BeauX
Arts are guarded by military. Skirmish-
Ing is reported interim tently from the
Rue St. Jacob, the Voltalre quai and
the Place st. German.
The students are trying to repeat the
the scenes of last mig ht in the neighbor
hood of the PalaiS de Justice and pre-
lecture de Police. A mob assembled
at the Place st. Michel and tried
TO rush over the bridge to the
Boulevard du Palais. which runs be-
tween the TWO buildings. They were
met and driven back by body of cav
airy. They retreated, fighting down the
Boulevard st. Michel. Many students
were trampled or cut, and several cav
alrymen were wounded by flying stones.
At 1920 the students have possession
of the dozen streets between the BOule-
ward st. GerES II and the Seine. In
fantry and cayssiry are on hand. how
ever, to restrain them from breaking
into public buildings.
At 1880 the whole district between
Rue st. Peres and the College de
France, two blocks east of the Boule-
ward st. Michel, is in full riot. Troops
of cavalry and squads of pO-
lice are stationed in every street.
The students hold their ground.
They are stopping and upSetting
all vehicles. Scores of carts and car
riages have been set on fire. Many
students are using revOlvers. The mob
in front of the charity hospital have
been charged repeatedly by the
not dispense. Their allies in
windows of buildings near the hospital
have been pelting the police with
crockery and furniture and cotton wool
saturated with carbolic acid Many
policemen have Teen injured. Although
holding the mob at the hospital in
check. the police have been unsuccess-
full in taking the offensive. The cuIrss-
slers have not as yet interfered.
The critical stu ltion is complicated
by the demonstrations of the working
men. Three thousand of them met this
evening in the labor exchange and de-
all night to prevent the author
tiles from executing their threat TO
close 1t. More than 1,500 workingmen
are marching, eight abreast, thrO ugh
the disturbed district. 1t is re-
reported that Nuger's body will
be sent to Lyons tonight, in order
that no opportunity for a demon
stration at the funeral may be given.
Students are watching the railway sta
ton TO tbwart the plan. The keenest
anxiety IS everywhere apparent. Gen.
Saussier, military governor of Paris, has
prepared the garrison for the worst.
Later the mObs piled up the carriages
and carts which they had seized to bar
ricade the streets. All the shops be-
tween the Hue des Peres and
the College de France were closed
early III the evening. The names
of twenty men severely injured in the
riots have been reported. Twelve of the
injured are i'll hospitals. NJ. LOZe, pre-
feet of police, rendered his resignation
to the government yesterday, but they
declined to accept it until after the
restoration of order.

most of the windows were broken, the
lamp posts were lying across the streets,
and broken furniture and half-smashed
