Pandemonium reigned in the Gallery as police and attendants engaged in a scuffle among the visitors in their efforts to quell the disturbance. The objectors were strategically placed at different corners of the Gallery.

London, Mar. 1.
An international sjsund-table Shipping Conférence was sug- gested by Mr. Walter Runciman, President of the Board of Trade, in a speech at the annual banquet of the Chamber of Shipping of the United Kingdom, in London this evening.
Mr. Runciman was of the opinion that they would not find a solution to be impossible.
The Government did not intend to allow, what happened at the World Economic Conference to be the last word. They now had something to say which they ru frained from anying then, and the time is coming when we shall have to say it openly.
