THE CANADIAN RIOT.
CAMP COMMANDANT'S ACCOUNT. Received March 11, 5.5 p.m. London, March 10. Brigadier-Oencra-1 f'olquhoun states that the Canadian rioters did not attack their officers, but treated them with-the gTeatest courtesy. Reports of damage to the camp are greatly exaggerated. Some fifty or sixty men attacked the canteens. The men at, one camp, anticipating trouble, armed themselves, and fired, contrary to orders. The girls', camp was treated with the utmost chivalry. None of the men entered their bedrooms while occupied. The man who raised the red flag of Bolshevism was shot.—Reuter.
