PLOTTING in Trinidad.

Port of Spain, Trinidad, March "a
"A mob has attempted to burn the
government buildings and the police
fred on the rioters, killing or wound
ing several of them. The rioting was
due to the refusal on the part of the
government to withdraw an ordinance
concerning the new water works, to
protest against which several public
meetings had been held. A demon.
stration was made during the meet
ing of the legislative council and
finally the mob stoned the govern
ment building and set fire to it. The
riot act was read and the police fired
on the mob. The city is in a state of
great excitement.
