Demonstrations were stagedt yes
terday in Paris, London, Munich,
Germany and in Boston and other
cities of the United States. No seri-
Gus disorder occurred although some
arrests were made.
Police Are Vigilent
Increased police vigilance against
disorder was established in the chief
cities of the world. Public officials
and public buildings in the United
States were under special guard
while in other countries extra pre-
cautions were thrown about United
States representatives and American
property.
In New York, Police Commissioner
Warren prohibited parades but said
he would permit mass meeting in
Union Square, arranged for tomor-
row by the socialist party, the /. w.
w., and the Sacco Vanzetti emerg-
ency committee. Meanwhile, Com
missioner Warren said, the mobilixa-
tion Of $4,000 policemen on guard
throughout the city and at large
number of public buildings and in
subway and elevated line stations
would continue until further notice"
and that the hunt for those respon-
sible for the explosion in two sub

marched through Bois de Vincennes,
carrying red flags and banners.
Some slogans were ordered destroyed
because they we're considered insult

Several thousand Sacco- vansetti

Frost Reports Send
Grain Prices Upward

Chicago, Aug. 8.-(F--All grain
prices went soaring today largely on
account of reports of serious crop
damage by frost in Canada. Ap-
preaching the close Of business for
the day, wheat quotations were up six
cents bushel and corn more than
four cents, with all deliveries of
corn touching the highest level this
season.
Later advices here were to the ef-
feet that ice q quarter inch thick
had formed at Gravelburg. Other re-
ports at hand said that temperatures
in some places reached as low as 22
in Swift Current territory. Under
such circumstances, grain trading
here became big broad affair.
Rye and oats as well as wheat and
corn were affected by the sudden
bulge in prices. At the top, rye was
up about four cents bushel an1
oats IN cents, oats scoring an all
around high price record for the sea-
son. Sensational new jumps in the
corn market were partly due to the
action Of wheat, but were also large

court today denied petitions by
counsel for NichOla Sacco and

Arthur ID. Hill, chief defense

The only witness was William G.
Thompson, former chief defense
counsel, other offers of proof
being submitted by Hill in affi.

Hill asserted that SaccO and

This is the sinister indictment of

as pointed out in a bulky League of

women and children which has just
been brought to New York and
made available at the offices of
the American Social Hygiene Asso-
citation. The report has been sub
mitted TO each of the twenty-eight
governments involved.
Contracts Misleading
"Girls who join travelling troupes

are sometimes associated with the
managers of places of amuse.

contracts are often misleading,

The report has aroused indigna.
tion in Europe, according to Major
Bascom johnson, who was in active
charge of the three years investi
cation of conditions on four cont

"The main route for international
traffic in women so far as we have
been able to examine it, is from
Europe to countries in Central and
South America" the report asserts
There is also route from Europe
to Egypt and to other places in
northern Africa"
The United States Is touched upon
very lightly in the report, indicating
that conditions in this country are
greatly improved since the centers
of commercialized vice were abol
ished.
