Work Of HoodIums.

Newport Monmouthshire. England,
Aug. 2a--The anti-Jew rioting at Tired
egar and adjacent towns was almost
entirely the work OF hoodlums. who
have obtained n stronger foothold in
those places because tho forces OF po~
lice stationed there are small The JewA
who suffered attacks. were among tho
most respected OF the townspeople and
they deny the charges OF demanding
high rent and so far as can be learned
the complaints against them OF exact-
Ing eSorbitant prices are unfounded.
Anti-Jcwish outbreaks OF violent
chnra have now occurred for thrce
days in succession In Monmouthshire
and are giving the authorities tho
greatest concern. as they are altogether
II new phase In British life. Tho Jewish
community here has made strong rep
reservations 10 the home office and
home secretary Churchill gave them tho
assurance that no precautions should 1be
overlooked to prevent a recurrence OF.
the disorders.
The riots and looting OF the Jewish
shops were OF desperate character
md the riot net had to be read and
the military called out before the mobs
were cowed. Additional soldiers were
drafted by EbDw NalC CardtN yester.
day. but similar scenes to those enacted
Monday night when Jewish shops were
wrecked. occurred again last night In
F,hbw Vale. Trcdegar. Rhymney and
Brynmnwr.
The presence OF the troops prevent
cd looting on such n large scale rs
Monday night. but tho police and mill
tary had to be continually chasing the
rioters with their hatons and swords.
In these charges many persons were
injured and large numbers were ar
rested Tho rioters attacked women
and drove them shrieking in terror
from their houses
The only motive for the outbreaks
Is alleged to be that the Jews hay,o
been guilty OF charging high rents to
the workmen and raising the price OF
provisions since tho recent strike be-
gan.
In the municipality OF Newport tho
anti jewish outbreaks were grea tly ex-
tended Disturbances occurred az
Waunlwid. Own. Aberbyssyg. and

n. Flight to Fort Plain.

Fort Plain, n. Y, Aug. 2S.-Anothel
remarkable spin thru the air on his
aeroplane fight from ST. Louis to New
York, brought Harry n. Atwood from
Belle Isle. five miles west of Syracuse
to Fort Plain late yesterday and landed
him ninety-five miles nearer his des-
tination. He Is now 1865 miles from his
starting point and exactly 200 miles
from his proposed alighting point in
New York.
From Belle Isle. where he ascended
at 1855 o'clock, Atwood sailed around
Syracuse for twelve minutes. turned
his biplane eastward and, In the twi-
light descended into the Mohawk val
ley alighting In a field here at 1905
O'Clock. His actual flying time was two
hours and ten minutes and was made
without stop.
"The air was as dead calm as pool"
said Atwood. Most Of the time kept
my hands in my pockets or read a
time table"
Atwood believes he possibly may
make New York today. but more prob
ably on Thursday, because the rough
and wooded country from Albany down
the Hudson river may compel him to
descend in different places or effect
landing on the water.
The 27-year-old aviator, who in nine
days has set new pace for aerial
navigation in America, is confident
that he soon will have a new worlds
record for distance.
He lacks just ninety-nine miles from
beating the international record now
held In Europe. Running over the last
hap Of his flight down the Hudson aft
er he has turned the corner at Albany,
he will surpass the present record at
Rheincli6.
From here Atwood has flfty-eight
miles to go to Albany. which he is
capable Of making in one fight with
out stop. The 142 miles from Albany
to New York will require at least one
stop for gasoline.
