STUDENT LARRIKINS
break up meeting. (United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) LONDON, June 21. Two hundred uproarious medical students created a pandemonium, at a Caxton Hall meeting at which the supporters of the abolition of vivisection wore to speak. The Chairman was Doctor Hawden. He was shouted down. Hinging aiul a free fight marked tho proceedings till the interrupters were thrown out. Some of them were taken to the police station. The meeting closed with women screaming among wrecked chairs. The police cleared the street, and the students then marched off, after they prevented any speech-making, to Trafalgar Square, and there ended the evening by dancing for half an hour in Piccadilly Circus with straws in their hair.
