ARGENTINA in
CIVIL STRIFE
Guards Are Placed To
Prevent Further
Disorders

BUENOS AIRES. Argentina, Sept,
5.-CR)- Guards were strengthened
about the central police department
early today and every precaution
taken to prevent continuation Of
disorders which during the last "a
hours have cost two lives and
caused serious fighting in the
streets Of Buenos Aires.
Strong platoons of heavily armed
officers have been placed at stree
corners. Many alcohol lamps have
been distributed throughout the
building, indicating fear that the
electric current would be cut off.
The war minister, accompanied by
General Marcilesi. arrived at head
quarters a few minutes after mid
night for a long conference with
the chief of police
Similar precautions were taken at
government house, before which the
police halted all traffic.
S~quadrons or mounted police were
patrolling the principal thorough
fares of the city at d~aybreak. Bue-
nos Aires was quiet.
Students Battle
Eight hundred students gathered
last night IN the Avenida oe Mayo
and forced themselves unarmed
through the ranks Of mounted
police maSsed on the plaza. An in
dividual on the sidewalk shouted
Viva Yrigoyen" and discharged a
revolver. This precipitated a fight
with police. during which many
shots were fired.
The students rallied around ban
nerS made Of handkerchiefs soaked
in the blood Of their wounded COM
rades, but finally we're dispensed by
the constabulary. Throughout the
demonstration, and other minor
shootii>, affrays over the city. great
excitement prevailed. A number OF
theaterS were dark and there were
few pedestrians abroad.
TIL Minister Of Justice. De Ia
Campo. held a long interview with
President Yrigoyen. La Nacion said
he represented nlmSeif as speaker
for the majority Of the cabinet
and offered their collective resig-
nations, requesting also that the
president himself resign
De la Campo is said to have told
the president that the best interests
of the nation and of his party. the
Radicals. depended upon his imme-
date withdrawal.
The president is reported to have
refused to resign and leaders OF
his party are understood TO Rave
reached an agreement then to
maintain the status quo until Mon
day. when the ministers probably
will insist upon the retirement OF
the entire cabinet and the pres
ident.
Observers generally agree that
the president. although reluctant tc
relinquish office. may be forced To
do so by the steadily increasing
press Of events.
