AssA1LED THE BRITISH PRINCE
Violent Demonstration by Mob of I'm
employed at Glasgow.


Glasgow, Sept. IAN anti-royalist
demonstration took place here Satur-
day that rivaled the days of the Paris
commune when 5000 socialists and I'M
employed tried to mob Prince Arthur
of Connaught. The prince came to re-
view the boys brigade and only the
fact that the police had been warned
of the attack prevented him from suf
fering probable death at the hands of
the Infatuated mob.
The hostile demonstration began the
moment the prince alighted from his
train. A special detail of several
hundred police threw themselves
around the prince and conducted him
to his carriage. The route to the city
hall, where the city corporation Of
ficials gave a luncheon in his honor,
was through hooting and jeering lines
of maddened people.
The most dramatic situation arose
when one of the bands in the prince s
escort started the national anthem
Instantly the mob broke into singing
the " Marseillaise and hundreds of red
flags waved For q time it seemed
that the royal party would be tram.
pied down.
The prince retained his composure
as he proceeded to the station amid q
running fire of jeers and insults.
The trouble arose over the refusa
of the municipal council to listen to {
pela from the thousands of unemployed
at its session few nights previous
The situation is little improved. TIT
people are demanding that either tn,
municipality or the government d.
something in their behalf.
