the Mohawa Valley alighting in a

The riots and looting 5of Jewish
shops are of a desperate character
and the riot act had to be read and
the military called out before the
mob members were cowed, 2
The presence of the troops pre-
vented looting on such large scale as
Monday night but the police and
military had to be continually chas-
ing the rioters with swords.
In these charges many persons
were injured and large numbers ar
rested. The rioters attacked wo-
men and drove them shrieking in
terror from their houses.
The only motive for the outbreak
is alleged to be that the Jews have
been guilty of charging high rents
to workmen and raising the prices
of provisions since the recent strike
