Clichy, France, infuriated by the refusal of fifty coTirades, chiefly women and girls, to cease work lay in wait until dark ?r.d fired a volley of revolver shots at the non-strikers, who took refuge in a cafe, which the strikers bombarded with revolvers and stones until the police arrived. Several women and two policemen were wounded. The assailants extinguished the street lamps and thereby escaped.

A series of similar murderous attacks were made on non-strikers in various provincial districts during the weeK.
