Rival factions met and fought with sticks and stones, and finally shots were fired.

Police reinforcements were rushed to the scene by armoured car, for the few officers on hand had been helpless to prevent the rioting and were merely brushed aside when the marchers went into action.

The armoured car crew fired bursts of Lewis gun fire over the heads of the fighting crowd without effect.

Rome, July 12. High authorities here to-day declared that the concern of the United States Secretary of State, Mr. Cordell Hull, over the Italo-Abyssinian crisis, which the American minister recently expressed to the Italian Ambassador in Washington, is most unwelcome.

Italy regards the American interest, or inter- ference, entirely unjustified.

The Italian authorities declare frankly that the dispute is not an American problem and therefore do not attempt to disguise their surprise at America's remarks on the matter to Signor Rosso, the Italian Ambassador.
