YALE BOYS STORM
THEATBR In RIOT
Object to Cutting Short Of
Gaby Deslys' Programme.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 1S.-Yale
students, including some of the Yale
football team, started a riot at the Hy-
perion Theater tonight, where Gaby
Deslys was given a performance. In a
short time pandemonium reigned in the
theater. The students ran on the stage,
chased the members of the company to
their dressing rooms, and were only
driven of when the stage hands and
hremen turned the hose on them. They
tore up theater chairs and generally
grecked the orchestra. Crow bars and
other weapons were seized by the stu
dents and stage hands, and as a result
a number of students and others were
hurt, some of them seriously. Louis E.
Bomeisler, brother of the Yale foot
ball end, was among those injured, and
with a number of other students, was
arrested by a squad of policemen who
responded to a riot call.
The cause of the trouble was the elm
ination of certain portions Of the per-
formance by orders of the police, the
curtain being rung down at $50. The
students howled for continuation of the
show, and the audience, which packed
the theater, sympathized with the call for
more. The students proceeded to storm
the stage. In the wild rush to escape
many were crushed and several women

quarters, where all were locked up on

them were released on bonds
Meantime Mile. Deslys was able TO
make her way from the theater to a
carriage under guard of the police, and
went to the station, where she boarded

Bomeisler, Dyer. and Reed were all

Attack on Nankin Expected.

Shanghai, Nov. 1S-Fighting is in
progress at Nankin, but only the i'm
periaI outposts and the rebel advance
guard are engaged. The general assault
by the rebels is expected hourly. Re
endorsements have begun to arrive near
Chinkiang, the headquarters of Gen. Hsu
Ko Ching, and the imperialists are ready
to make their last stand in what, il is
believed. will be the decisive battle of
the rebellion.
Every indication points to a victory
for the rebels. They are superior in
numbers and are better officered than
their adversaries, most of the COM
manders having had foreign military
training. They are abundantly equipped
with guns, ammunition. and provisions
and horses, and in addition have fourteen
gunboats.
The rebel strategists have planned their
attack with rare skill. The forces have
been divided into three divisions, with
the intention of delivering a simultane-
Gus attack from three sides.
Wild enthusiasm prevails in the rebel
ranks, and the troops are impatient at
the delay.
The loyalists are said to be poorly
equipped and short of ammunition.
Seven thousand Shantung troops consti-
tute the backbone of Chang's army.
The American, British, and German
consulates at Nankin have been closed
ana all business within the city is at
standsttll pending the battle.

NOW WANT STRICT
REPUBLICAN RULE
ALI Glasses Oppose Present
Chinese Form.

Pekin Nov. ia countrywide demon
stration for a strict republican form of
government, with the throne completely
eliminated from the constitution, is the
propaganda that is springing into sudden
favor among all classes, and, according
to several authorities, IL will in the near
future supersede the present plan of
government
Yuan Shih Kai, the new premier, who
was hailed as his country's savior. is
already the object of criticism. 1t is
openly charged that he is under the
thumb of Prince Ching, the eX-premier.
His cabinet is proving a failure before
the completion Of Its organization. Liang
Tung Yon, named as president of the
board of foreign affairs, is among those
selected. but has refused to serve. The
native newspapers denOunce the new pre-
mier's policy in bitter terms. 1t is said
that he cannot see beyond the Chilli
province
The situation in the Yangste section
remains unchanged and uncertain. Fight
ing continued at many places in the dis
trict to-day. The 100000 yen for which
the governor of Ho-Nan telegraphed yes
terday, so that he might pay his troops
and kept intact the imperial forces. was
not forthcoming to-day, and it is doubt
full if it will be. In that event all the
troops in the province will join the reb-
els.
Reports from rebel sources state that
the negotiations between Yuan Shih Kai
and the republican leaders at Hankow
have been closed without an agreement
having been reached. There is no cessa-
ton in the fighting and the rebels so
far have been victorious. They have
crossed the river Han, which separates
Hankow from Han-Yang. and have re-
taken the waterworks. Hundreds of 10y
alists are said to be deserting to the
side of the rebels and many of the Off
GERS have committed suicide.
Rebel supporters here say they have
received confirmation of the report OF
the capture of Admiral Sab Cheng Ping.
