1900 Reservists About to Sail
on Steamer Canopic Make
Demonstrations against the
Amerika and Cincinnati.
FIRST CLASH WITH POLICE
Disturbance Followed Arrest of
Italians Who Assaulted Gin
cinnati's Stewards-United
States Custom House Stoned
until Mob Was Driven Back.

Boston. Aug. 15.-The assembling to-
day of 1900 Italian reservists who were to
sail on the steamer Canopic tonight, and
their friends. was marked by demonstra-
lions against the nterned German steam
ships Amerika and Cincinnati, as result
Of which several policemen were severely
injured Sailors on the German vessels
were struck by stones and sticks. Re
volver shots were exchanged between the
crowd and the police hut SO far as could
be learned none took effect
In an earlier disturbance which devel-
opod about tho formation Of a parade Of
the reservists in North square, three po-
lice officers were injured. one being stab
bed. Ten arrests were made in both out
breaks.
The body of reservists, said to be the
largest to leave this country on one
ship since the war began. was made up
of italians from this city and from
other parts of New England. They had
lparaded in two sections to the Com
imonwcalth pier in the South Boston
district. on one side of which lay the
CanopiC which was to give them pas
sage to Italy, while on the other side
were moored the steamers Amerika and
Cincinnati Of the Hamburg American
line which have been at this port
since the war began.
Most of the reservists made their
way aboard the Canopic. while the
crowd which accompanied them moved
about the dock. When two stewards
from the Cincinnati in their uniforms
were espicd on the pier the crowd
first hooted and then jostled them.
Both resisted and were joined by a
Waterman on the dock. The three men
We're beaten badly before they were
rescued by police.
! The crowd became angered by the res
| cue, and turned to the big German liners
I stones Were thrown at both vessels
! smashing portfolio glasses, and deck fit
| tinss. and also We're directed at sailors
! on the decks, several of whom were
! struck
1he mob formed again and rushed &c
the main pier building. The United States
! customs station was stoned, but eigh,
officers forced the crowd back at the
point of revolvers. Shots We're fired ii
the air, and We're answered from the
! crowd, but when the gathering had beer
( dispersed no bullet wounds could be
found.
Several policemen required hospital a.
tention after the melee head injuries, a
broken leg. Wrcnched arms and sever,
Contusions being among their complaints
I Although the officers used their clubs a
times. few of the disturbers bore marks o
/ the fray.
Tho North square disorders developed
from the attempt of some of the reserv
lists to make fellow COUntrymen who were
not going to sail with them shout thei
allegiance to the old flag. according e
the police officers attempted to quel
these small disturbances only TO have
both sides turn upon them. and stone
were thrown and knives shown by th'
crowd one officer was slashed across tn,
face and arms.
