LONDON, Ont. July 1.-The city has
been placed under martial law and adj
ditional militiamen ordered from ad-
jaceut towns Is . result Of street riots.
The police became unable to cope with
the rioters and the military WAS called
out to clear the streets. The trouble
commenced in the afternoon when
crowds drove the non-union crews of
several street cars from their posts and
stoned the cars. One car was fired after
the crews had left it and was al.
most destroyed. When the attempt
tempt was made to move the cars to
the barn the rioting broke out afresh.
The cars were stoned and the mob be.
came 20 boisterous that the riot act
had to be read. This had not the de-
sired effect and Mayor Wilson called
out the military. Several arrests were
made.

RISKS OF BULLrlGHTlNG
No Uncommon Thing For the Bull to
Climb Among the Spectators.

IF the French are going to take up
bullfghting as one Of their regular
amusements, says a New Yorker who
has seen a good deal Of the peninsular
sport in its native home, they will
have to get themselves accustomed to
seeing a bull break loose. clear the bar
rier and make himself gay among them.
To Judge by the talk there has been in
some of the papers about what happened
at Deuil few Sundays ago. one would
think that such a thing was quite a
rare accident in the history Of the bull
ring, but in the course Of single sea-
son that | was at Lisbon | must have
seen it happen at least half dozen
times-that is, more than once for ev-
cry Sunday | went to bnllight.
"What is rare is for bull to get
clear away from the building and 90
careering about the streets Of the neigh
borhood. That is prevented effectually
by the way a bull ring is built To get
to or from your place you have to go
mp or down flights Of steps, and rather
narrow ones at that, and a bull, how
ever active he may be- is not good at
flights Of steps
"The bulls saw in the Lisbon ring
were active, being wiry. thin hanked.
deep chested brutes that thought moth
ing of leaping over the barrier into the
narrow space between that AMI the high
stone parapet in front Of the spectators
seats. Sometimes when bnll had made
this Jump in pursuit Of a fet ing 'capin-
ha' and couldn't find his man Ia the
passage he would half lunp half climb.
over the parapet Whrn he got mp there
he would flourish his horns about, but
could do no damage TO any one who had
the sense to get up and move out Of his
way. You see. the benches around the
ring are set on sloping base of cement
and that makes it impossible for beast
with hoofs to move about Besides, the
benches always impede him.
"You never hear women screaming
on those occasions. All the women are
up in the boxes. and they know. be-
sides. that there isn't any danger The
bull always gets pushed back somehow.
One day saw a little cigar store clerk.
when bull landed close to him. coolly
get between the animals horns and
cover mp his eyes until the attendants
came and dragged him of. If that bull
had been on level ground. it would have
taken thorough professional to go as
near him as that. and it would have
been at the risk Of the mans life -
