On the arrival of the mob if found that between them and their objective there were several policemea. The efforts of the police to break up the mob were ineffective, and the com munists, beneâting by their weight of numbers, stood.off the police and distributed handbills and set off firecrackers which attracted several hundred curious onlookers. to the scene. In a short time-the police were lost to view in an excited mob of Chinese.

Calls for Reinforcements. Calls for reinforcements were sent in by the police by telephone from the Astor House, and among the first to arrive was a detachment from Hongkew. A Japanese eon atable, arriving with the jacter, was separated from his comrades ned set upon by the mob. The ring- leader

poa.

As it was, the bar crushed through the headgear and felled the constable, who drew his revolver and firing, seriously wounded his Assailant. The crowd, frightened by the shot, drew back and shortly after that with the arrival,,of more police from Hongkew Station and the Red Maria with the Reserve Unit under Sapt. Fairbairn the

But the police are fully equipped, and are ready to cope with any situation aimest at a moment's notice.
