London, May 0 The Spectator pub
lishes an alarmist article in regard to
tho possibility of serions troublo in
India.
The Spectator refers to the excite
ment reported to prevail in North
Behar, owing to tbe foot that all tbe

been fouud smeared with a mixture of
mud and of the hairs of some animal.
The Spectwtor recalls that next Thurs

Mutiny, and that this anniversary has
been preceded by a mysterious distri
bution of calces throughout Hebar and
th" northwest.
According to the Spectator, there is
something stirring among the Nepau- I
lose priests, and it is feared that it
porteuds another serious rising in In
dia. Th rialng, If it takes place, accord
ing to the Spectator, will be due to the
disaffection which exists on account of

roen as usual made their itrht honr tie
monstraliou this vear on the first Sun
day after May flay. Thousands of
workors met in Hyde Park and wero
addressed by speakers from a dozen
stands. All the meeting pussed resol
utions in favor of theei;ht hour day.
They also resolved that the working-
men oonld free themselves economi
cally and socially only after getting
control of the political machinery now
in the bunds of the capitalists.
Socialist speakers were more numor.
oub end conspicuous than iu any pri-
oeding year, 'i hey advised the work
ing men to attack conservatives and
liberals alike and try to prevent tbe
turtles from passing further legislation
before both agreed to placa in the fore
ground proposals to better the condi
tion of the laboring class. Enormous
crowds watched the procession psss to
and from the park, There was no dis
order. In Dublin a workingmen's meeting
in Phoenix park passed the familiar
eight hour resolution, besides calling
for manhood suffrage and the payment
of members of parliament.
The worklngmen'i meeting in
Glasgow, after adopting tho eight honr
resolution, demanded the abolition of
the honse of lords and the nationaliza
tion of the railways.
In other large towns in the United
Kingdom resolutions of a similar tenor
were approved by the working people.
