CURED at the expulsion of a number of
sisters from their school at Lander
neau, near here. A special train con-
veyed detachments of soldiers to Ian
derneau, where a body of gendarmes
had been modified already. A large
crowd assembled at the school and
surrounded the soldiers in the square
in front of the school. When the com
missary of police arrived accompanied
by a locksmith, the people protested
vigorously, shouting:
Long live the sisters and liberty.
Down with the ministry
Women threw themselves to the
ground in front of the horses of the
gendarmes. The commissary ordered
the sisters to open the school door
They refused and the locksmith picked
the lock and broke windows amid the
denunciations of the crowd. The com
missary ordered the sisters to leave
the school, which they did. Leaning
on the arms of the townswomen and
accompanied by the priests and thou
sands of people they marched to
church, where they sang hymn. A
large crowd followed the gendarmes to
the railroad station shouting, death
to the locksmith." The man was pro,
tected by the military.
Similar scenes are expected in other
villages Of Finisterre where the decree
against unauthorized schools is to be
put into execution.
After the expulsion of the sisters
the crowd again became so threaten
ing that the commissary ordered the
troops to charge, but the intervention
of M. Villiers, member of the chamber
of deputies, induced the people to dis
perse. A few women were hurt in the
disorder. The commissary at Crozen
tried to eXpel the sisters from q
school but the gendarmes were unable
to force their way through the croWC
and the attempt was abandoned.

GLOOMY PICTURE
VIENNA PAPER TELLS OF THE
CONDITION OF GALIcIAN AG-
RICULTURAL LABORERS.
MANY DYING OF HUNGER

Alleged That the Annual Mortality
Due to Starvation Has Aggregated
Fifty Thousand for Several Years
Past-Strike Now on for an Increase
in the Present Wages of Six Cents
aDay for Men and Three for Women
Vienna, Aug. 8.-After a special in
vestigation among the agricultural Ia
bOrers in Eastern Galicia the Neue
Freie Presse draws a gloomy picture
of the miserable conditions which led
to the existing strike.
The average mortality from famine
for several years past, according to the
Neue Freie Presse, aggregated $4,000.
LabOrers' wages range from s to 16
cents day and women earn from to
8 cents a day. The peasants rarely
taste bread and exist chiefly on soup,
the principal ingredients of which are
water and herbs.
A vienna dispatch on June 80 said
that a great strike of agricultural Ia
borers was in progress in Galicia, the
laborers demanding an increase in the
wages of 6 cents a day for men and
cents day for women to double that
amount.
A Vienna dispatch on Aug. report
ed that there had been many conflicts
between the striking peasants and the
military.
A dispatch to the London Daily EX-
press on Aug. said that in one en-
counter between the strikers and mil
itary 13 persons were killed and lis
wounded and that in another case 200
persons were killed or wounded.
Advices were received from LON
berg, Galicia, Wednesday night, to tha
effect that the strike showed signs Of
coming to an end, compromises haV
ing been reached in several districts
and the military authorities having
Quelled the disturbance in others.
