LONDON, Oct "A riot in the
center of Londons West End, in which
many policemen and joblcss persons
wore injured, ended to-day what the
police describe as the largest demon
stration by unemployed ever known
in the English capital
Ten thousand idle persons from the
East End organized a hunger march
this afternoon with the intention Of
parading at Spring Gardens, wnerc the
London County Council was in session
discussing the unemployment problem.
The columns of workless, among them
many women, some with babies in their
arms, assembled on the banks Of the
Thames from various parts of the city.
Jeers for Lloyd George
AS the procession took form the van
guard raised huge red flag, while
others in line unfurled banners with
inscriptions such as: "l914-M obiliza-
tion and War; 1921--Starvation and
Jaw" AS they marched the demon
strators sang many popular songs, fit
ting words to some Of Them that were
Georges body lies amoulderfng in the
grave"
When the procession reached the
Offices of the County Council it was
diverted by strong guards of police
These forces also blocked the way to
Trafalgar Square, where dem ronstra
tions are permitted on Sundays but
not on weekdays. Up to this time the
unemployed in the parade had been
orderly and good natured. AS they
turned aside into Hyde Park the
marchers stopped to listen to speeches
by their leaders. Here one speaker
gave the order: demonstrate in Ira
falgar Square, regulations or no reg
ulations!' He advised the crowd to
advance on the square in procession
but before reaching it to break up and
reach 1T from separate streets.
Obeying the order, the crowd, num-
bcring several thousand, attempted
about o'clock to rush the square
Mounted police on every side drove
I them back and cleared the space. More
demonstrators came up from Hyde Park
and rushed the square, whereupon the
police had to draw their truncheons to
handle the situation.
Mob Attacks With Bottles
Several Of the mob were knocked
down and arrested in the affray. while
the police who were engaged in clearing
one side Of the square were assaulted
with bottles. Many Of them were
severely injured. The battle lasted
only five minutes, but was ugly enough
Thousands of onlookers gathered near
the square. Order was soon restored
but the police patrols in the district
were doubled and trebed for the re-
mainder cf the evening.
Meanwhile, at the Offices of the Coun.
ty Council, which continued to be sur.
rounded by crowds Of unemployed, Har-
ry Cosling, labor leader, in IL bitter
speech. said that the situation in the
East End was electric
Labor leaders are on the brink OF
losing control over the unemployed" he
said. Unless this question is settled
at once there is bound TO be Il row, not
only in London but all oyer the coun-
try"

Informed of the visit Of the unidenti-
ned woman to the bedside Of Faith
until this morning.
The condition of Faith was such that
the hospital authorities feared to sub
Ject her to any excitement. Twelve
hours before her life had been de-
spared OF. At midnight it was hoped
She might recover.
In the morning Faith showed slight
signs of improvement and hopes in her
behalf were momentarily raised. She
developed cough at noon and shortly
before 8 o'clock lapsed into a coma.
From then on her strength waned.
DR.. Grant. Mrs. Philip Lydig and
Mrs. John Graham, the housekeeper
who has looked after Faith like a
mother, We're at the hospital the great
er part Of the day. They were told
late in the afternoon that the baby
had only a few hours to live. Ar
rangements were made for their i'm
mediate notification during the night.
The unconscious child was the object
of widespread solicitude yesterday.
Flowers arrived in quantities for her
all day long and there were hundreds
of inquiries from strangers Interested
in the history of the waif. When she
was left in basket on DR.. Grants
doorstep last May he described her as
a "gift from Heaven" Several days
afterward she was baptized and given
the family name of Willard. A healthy
little brunette, she was believed to be
of Italian parentage.
When DR.. Grant left for his summer
home Faith also was sent to the coun-
try, where she f1ourished and grew fat
Her future again came under discus
sion when it was announced that DR..
Grant was engaged to marry Mrs.
Lydig. No decision was reached as to
what would be done with the child, al
though Mrs. Lydig said she would leave
it entirely to the judgment of DR..
Grant. From the start he said he was
not adopting Faith, but that he wanted
to give her a good start in life. 1t
was his intention to give her to re-
sponsible family.

The match between the President nd
