LISBON. Feb. 3. — Serious street
rioting broke out in the streets of
this city today for the second time.
The first trouble started Sunday af
temoon, when a big crowd which had ’
been addressed by some of the Social
ist deputies, started to break into the 1
shops in search of food. The greatly 1
increased cost of living has been un
settling the people for some time, and 1
outbreaks have been feared. The riot
ers are still causing disturbances, de
spite numerous arrests of the ring
leaders made by the police. Yester
day one person was killed and sev
eral wounded. The injuries were ‘
caused by bomb throwing in conflicts 1
with the police. Today bombs were 1
exploded in many parts of the city, !
and soldiers have been summoned to
aid the police authorities in preserv
ing order.
