Been Reopened Riotious De-
monstrations.
(By Associated Prcss.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-ofIicial adj
vices received in diplomatic quarters here
indicate that the Chili-ArgeEtine contrc-
versy is again opened. According to these
advices, the peace protocol, referring tie
whole subject to arbitration. was signed
at Santiago three days ago, bit the ac-
ton OF the Argentine Minister. in placing
his signature to the document seems TO
have caused resentment at Buenos Ayres,
both among the prominent officials ana
people.
Accordingly. on yesterday the Argentine
Minister informed the Gillian Foreign
Office that he was unable TO concur IN
all of the terms which. had been agreed
upon heretofore and signed.
The riotous demonstrations which have
occurred in the streets of Buenos Ayres
are thought to have resulted from the
signing of this protocol. and to have been
expressive of popular dtsapproval OF the
settlement with Chilli. The popuiac SER
s,ulent in Argentine is very warlike ans.
this leads to the belief in Weil-pcste'i
quarters that President Roca will not SIC
coed in any policy which can SoateHl-
plate an adjustment with Chill.

its able corps of teachers. has always at
tracted the attention of teachers outside
Of the State as we'll as within. Quite Il
number of teachers from North Carolina

ia bring still larger numbers to the school
next summer. The teachers will be taken
from among the professors of the Uni
versity.
