serious enough in Itself, i.e. rime modi more serious
owing to the incapacity of the police authorities
?nd to the timidity of the .public. It is nonsense,
however, totrestthe dlaturbaacc as aocialiatic or

tempt t.f tho Boeialisl federation to breakups
genuine meeting of anemployed men m Trafalgar
eSqaara, Tbe police bad ample notice of this st?
tempt, and an ample force al hand did protect the
sseetmg and forced the Socialists to move to the
northside of the square, followed by a crowd ol
roughs snd thieves, to whom (lyndman. Burua ami
tbs other snarchiat leaders made apeeobea directly
meit mg tl-.ein to violence and trune. Tho
mob there anon started westward, began smashing
the windows in Pall Mall, and continued the same
amusement i'i St. James anti Piccadilly, where
aome shopa were also plundered. The mob reached
Hyde Park and attacked carriages with women and
children, whom it robbed, Insulted and beat, lt
then Backed South and North Audley st-., and
brohe more windows in Oxfdrd-st., but dispersed
sd the rumor of tbe fippr.aeli of the- police. The

The scare whii h ensued em Tuesday aud the fol?

advised the closing of the .hope in the
thief strut-. This was reirardi tl ii- an
avowal ol their inability to protect
the town against expected attsck. It encouraged
the mob, whieh again saaembled in Trafalgar

ot protection, There baa never heen really aince

overwhelming, both of police and military, The

Albany lino ls not sorloiisly affected, and that tho New

any through bulliens, and other lines aro more or leis
hampered. The rain storm wblcb reichelt Boston early
last Thursday morning; dbl not cease until about noon to
d?y, althiniKh comparatively little, ruin bas fallen since
daylight. The total precipitation ha! been over five and
one-half Inches, as mea* ii red at the Signal Service
< iirice. Kew people, realised in this neighborhood
until yesterday afternoon that much loss was likely to
im occasioned by the great thaw. It was not until last
night that people tn tho illjrhlaud District discovered
thia their bornes were no longer tenable. Tho lewers
nero not equal to the work of carrying of all tho water
suddenly posted late them. The cons.-.piesse was that
the newera being overtaxed, the sewer-plates were lifted
by the'water so that they moved away from their posi?

Tho principal cause for all thl! trouble in the Rothery
District li sttributed to the ract that tbe Old Stoay Brook
has bees confined to too Darrow limits, a striking proof
of llil-i was to be seen about ll o'clock last night at Elm
