Driven TO Frenzy over Increased
Cost of Meats.

Philadelphia. July 25.-Maddened by the
rise in meat prices and urged to a pitch
of frenzy by the infammatory speeches
OF Socialists at mass meetings the night
before, thousands of Jewish women
and a scant sprinkling of men to-day
mobbed the Kosher butcher shops in the
southern section of the city.
Armed with pitchers and buckets of
kerosene and acids. they held their
ground for hours. and effectGally pre-
vented a single pound Of meat being sold
in any Of the shops that had aroused
their ire. After nearly half a day of
pitched battle with the rioters the police
tonight were able TO formulate the re-
suits of the days disorder. They were
as follows:
Ninety-two women under arrest, charged
variously with assault and battery and
ineiting to riot.
Two women in the Mt. Sinai Hospital.
suffering from acid hurns.
Twenty tons Of meat rendered useless by
