STUDENTS RIOTED.
Wrecked a Theater at Ann Arbor,
Mich., and Fought Police and
Firemen.

Ann Arbor, Nich.-College feel
ing among the students of the
University of Michigan burst forth
into riot last night. More than 20
students were locked up in Jail and the
Star theater, a five-cent place of
amusement, was literally wrecked.
Late in the evening a mob of students,
which numbered fully 1000, directed
a college rush" against the front of
the building, tearing away windows
and doors and plaster and rolling the
theater piano out into the street,
where leaders of the students mount
ed the instrument and performed a
dance to the accompaniment of cheers
and yells from the crowd.
The trouble dates back to Saturday
night, when student in the audience
who persisted in repeating the Ann
Arbor college yell too often to suit the
management was elected and dubbed
by special policeman in the employ
of the theater
Monday nights trouble started with
a small crowd of students throwing
eggs at the building. This diversion
soon gave way to fusillade of rocks
and when the police were called to
quell the disorder the yells of derision
sent up by the young men brought re-
Inducements from every direction.
AS the attacking party grew wilder
its aim broadened, and windows of
the upper stories of the building and
those. of neighboring business places
began to crash. Finding the police un-
able to subdue the rioters Mayor Hen
derson summoned the fire department
Several police officers had been felled
on hatless after their helmets had
been stolen to decorate student dens.
The firemen had no sooner laid their
line of hose to the scene to give the
mob drenching than with yell the
boys captured a hundred feet of hose
and ran down the street yelling.
All efforts to preserve order failed
until the work of devastation was
complete.

HAITIAN REBELS ARE SLAIN.
ELEVEN PLoTTERs ARE SHOT By
ORDER OF PRESIDENT ALEXIS.
Warships are Sent to the Scene Of
Trouble by Nations Who Wish
to Protect Their Citizens.

Port au Prince, Haiti-The Hal
tian governments activity in sum-
marily dealing with number of
alleged conspirators in a threatened
uprising has had the effect of causing
anxiety In the hearts of many, for 1t
is not known where the next blow may
fall or how far reaching this revolu-
tionary trouble may be.
Outwardly, Port au Prince is calm,
and following the execution on Sun
day of IL men alleged to have been,
implicated in the plot, President Nord
Alexis issued a proclamation to the
people in which he felicitates them
on their calm attitude under the pres
ent trying conditions and gives assur-
ances to the community that order and
the security of the government will be
maintained.
Washington, March 17-An Ameri-
can war vessel, probably the gunboat
Eagle, is now on the way from Guam
tanamo to Port au Prince, Haiti, where
the Haitian government on Sunday
summarily executed a number of alleg-
ed revolutionists. The vessel is not
sent there because of any serious ap-
prehension on the part of officials
here that American interests at Port
au Prince or at other points in Haiti
are in serious danger, but as matter
of precaution.
It is asserted that Gen. Firmin, the
Haitian revolutionary leader, now a
refugee in the French consulate at
Gonaives, is at the head of another
revolutionary movement against the
constituted authorities, and 1t is be-
lieved that the shooting of the Hal
tians at Port au Prince is the direct
result of the discovery of this fact.
The statement that Firmin was
fomenting another revolution move
ment is made in a dispatch received
here by Mr.. st. Leger, the Haitian
minister.
The dispatch said that letters from
Firmin to Haitians in Port au Prince
had been intercepted by the govern
ment and that IL persons had been
arrested to whom these letters were
directed The impression at the lega-
ton is that these are the persons who
were shot by the Haitian authorities
on Sunday.
Most of the revolutionary refugees
in Haiti are in the French consulate
at Gonaives, where in addition to Gen.
Firmin there are about. 20 native Hal
tians seeking shelter. The Haitian
government is anxious that these men
shall be required to quit the country,
but the friends of the refugees are op-
posed to sending them away.
The French cruiser d'Estrees is eX-
pected very soon at Gonaives, where
she will act in cooperation with the
British and German ships of war now
ON their way to Haiti.
1t is understood here that France,
Germany and Great Britain are acting
in accord in this situation.

DRAMA IN LONELY INN.
Would-5e Murderer Made to Eat His
Own Poison.

A story that reads like a chapter
from sensational novel comes from
the Fangeas, in Lozere, southern
France.
In this out-of-the-way spot dwells an
innkeeper named Avignon, with hig
sister and little nephew, a boy of
eight.
One evening an old man, who.
seemed to be unwell, made his appear
ance at the inn and asked for accom-
mediation. Avignon invited him in.
and left the stranger alone with his.
little nephew while he went on with
his work
When he reentered the room, the
boy, childlike, observed that there.
would be no need to salt the potatoes.
as the old man had put salt into the
saucepan in which they were boiling
during Avlgnons absence.
If Avignon had any suspicious he
concealed them, but when they sat
down to supper, and the old man re-.
fused to take any of the potatoes. the,
innkeeper acted in q way that must
have astonished the guest. Avignon
took down his gun, and, covering the.
stranger with it, commanded him to.
partake of the vegetables and de.
spite the protests and excuses of the.
old man he was obliged to eat. No.
sooner had he done so than he fely
to the ground in great agony, and soou
after expired
Avignon searched him, and found
In his pockets, besides revolver and n
knife, whistle. The latter suggest.
ed an idea to the innkeeper. With tho
gun still ready for emergencies. ha
blew the whistle, and on two men rum
ming towards the inn, he fired. Neither
appeared to be hit, but the Unexpected
nature of their reception caused them
to turn tail, needless of the fate or
their accomplice.
The plot, thus frustrated by the OBJ
servation of the little boy, seems TO.
have been aimed at the savings which
Avignon is generally credited with
having. Having poisoned Avignon. his
sister and his nephews. they could
have possessed themselves of what
ever there was worth taking in the

Port an Prince. Hayti, Dec. a
Looting and pillaging took place in
Port au Prince last night. following
the stirring events of the day which
saw Nord Alexis driven from his cap
ital by an infuriated mob.
The passions of the populace had
been aroused. and, after being de-
feated in their endeavors to do bod
lily harm to Alexis. they turned their
attention to the well stocked stores
and residences of the supporters Of
the deposed president. After severe
fighting, the authorities succeeded in
guelling the mob. but twelve men
were killed before order was restored.
The trouble began shortly after
President Nord Alexis had been es-
corted to the French cruiser Duguay
Trouin by the French minister. The
people from the Belair and Salines
sections of the city invaded the bust
ness quarter and lost no time in
turning to the work of pillage and
robbery They divided into bands
and broke into the stores. dragging
the goods into the street, where they
were divided among the mob. The
crowd were soon fighting among
themselves. and four persons were
killed in these encounters.
The mob was rapidly getting out
