the republican state convention, which

be held next week. Brooklyn will be
one of the first towns to elect state
convention delegates, but the other IA
county towns will follow close in or

who the republicans of this section

RIOTOUS SCENES AT
MAY DAY PARADES
Red Flag Floated to the Breeze
And American Colors
Pulled Down.

NEW YORK. May 2.-Rioutous scenes
marked the meeting Of several May Day
parades Of workers in Union Square
late yesterday afternoon. Socialists
and anarchists engaged in fistic battles,
an American flag was pulled down from
the pole, and a red flag was hoisted in
its place.
Men, said to be foreigners, were try
ing to tear the flag and stamp it under
foot when 1t was bravely rescued by
Miss Caroline Dexter, a young socialist
worker, who defied the crowd. She pull
ed down the red flag of anarchy and
escaped from the rioters with the
American emblem.
AS soon as she was gone the red flag
went up again, but the fighting was
general and prolonged.
The occasion of the riot was the an
nual May Day conference and demon
stration of the socialists and labor
unionists. The majority OF the labor
unionists who espouse the cause OF So
cialism are affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor.
About 1000 of that organization ap-
peared in the parade, swelling the num-
Der of those in line to more than 5O,OOO.
While they were given the privilege of
marching, no provision was made for
their speakers to address the crowd
which gathered in Union Square, where
the parade ended.
