ARRAY occurred between the police and
a number of students in the Latin quar-
ter. The students who lodge in the
quarter determined to lay the facts in
the case before the government and to
obtain satisfaction for what they deemed
the arbitrary and overbearing conduct
of the police. When the chamber of
deputies met tOuay students to the
number of 1000 proceeded to the legis-
lative building and sought to gain ad-
mission. The officials of the chamber,
fearing riotous demonstration, gave
orders to close the gates to
prevent their ingresS. After con-
siderable parleying. during which
the students expressed themselves very
freely. ten of the number were admit
ted to the chamber. The spokesman of
the students were accorded hearing
by the chamber. They stated the facts
in the case as they appeared to them.
and declared that their only object in
coming to the chamber was to urge the
deputies to support motion cenSuring
the government. which was to be offered
by NJ. Miilerand. NJ Millerand sub
mitted his motion, asking the house to
censure the government for its connec-
ton with the atfray, and the debate is
still proceeding.
Project of Police Resigns.
NJ. LoZi, prefect of police, has resigned
his Office because, as he believes. the
government is disposed to make scape-
goat of HIM in the matter. In speaking
on his motion. NJ. Millerand maintained
that the police had brutaIly assaulted
Innocent persons who were simply
looking at the struggle between the gen.
darmes and the students. NJ. Dupuy,
the prime minister. deprecated the dis
cuSSiOn as premature, adding that a
stringent inquiry was proceeding into
all the facts of the case. The order of
the day expressing the trust that the
government would do its best to punish
the guilty officers was finally adopted
by the chamber. Efforts are being made
10 induce NJ. LoZe to reconsider his resig-
nation.
At 1880 o'clock this evening 1000 stu
dents surrounded the prefecture of po-
lice, jeered the officials and threw
stones through the windows. While the
police were preparing TO charge. the
mob upset all the booths in the neigh
borhood and smashed the street lamps.
The charge of the police was resisted
stubbornly. The students fought back
with clubs and stones. In the first onset
several students were wounded, and
two students were stretched uncon-
sciOus OH the pavement. The second
charge resulted i'll more Injuries on
both sides. but the students were driven
back but fifty or sixty yards. After the
third charge had been repulSed the
students marched, singing and shout
ing, to the Place st. Michel. The po-
lice retired, and call for cavalry was
sent out from the prefecture. AT 1918
the students were rioting in the Boule-
ward 81. Michel.
The immediate cause of the riots TO-
day was the death of NJ. Neuger. clerk
| who was hi ured MORALLY by the police
| in their encounter with the students on
| Saturday. A disOrderly demonstration
Will be made probably by the students
i at Neuger's funeral.
