EGYPTIAN TROOPS
ROUT STUDENTS
One Reported Killed in March
on Cairo as Strike
Spreads.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CAIRO, January 27.-A widespread
strike Of students precipitated a clash
today between demonstrators and po-
lice at Damanhour.
One student was reported to have
been killed, but this could not be
verified Immediately.
The Damanhour clash arose as a
heavy force of Egyptian cavalry
dashed to nearby Giza while 1900
shouting students of GiZa University
marched on Cairo in connection with
the strike.
Bridges Are Opened.
The bridges between Giza and Cairo
were opened in an attempt to block
an entry by the students into the city.
Large forces of police centered at
the bridgeheads.
Ignoring the counsels of their lead
ers, the students went out on strike
everywhere. One group at Bulak
made bonfire Of the furniture Of the
School of Applied Arts.
Cairo police were reported to have
fired on rioters at Mansura and
Damanhour. wounding an undeter-
mined number.
The student strike came just as a
deadlock threatened proposed British
Egyptian negotiations.
Nahas Re erses Stand.
Nahas Pasha, leader of the Wafd
Nationalist party which has been
campaigning for greater freedom from
Britain, had agreed to formation OF
q neutral cabinet to replace the re-
signed government Of Premier Tewfik
Nessim Pasha, and to immediate
opening Of negotiations with Britain.
Nahas took a new stand, however,
insisting the Wapdists must have a
majority representation in new cabi-
net or any delegation formed to nego-
tiate with the British-a demand op-
posed by other Egyptian parties.
Egypt, nominally independent North
African kingdom and former protecto-
rate of Britain, recently received Brit
ish support for a return to self-gov-
ernment under its former constitution,
but Britain maintained control Of for
eign affairs and right to military occu-
patton.
