A great amount of property waa damaged or ruined at each place by the rioters. At Liege, on the aamo night, there wu an open conflict between tho troops, whleh had been mamed there for tho twotectlon of tho place, and n Urge body of I anarchist a, who were marching against the town for the pnrooee of attacking and of looting it. The Aght wu severe nnd pro longed, bnt Anally resulted in the repulse of the anarchists. They were not driven from | the Add, however, until tho troops charged upon them with fixed l-ayoncta. A 1 MVfW of i the anarchist demonstration may be formed from tho fltet that today no leu than D.UOO troops are on duty guarding the district dis turbed by the rioters on Saturday.

It hu practically u- turned n universal demand by the miner* of tbe country for an lacreaae of wages, accom panied by a decrease in the hour* of labor. Thla labor movement at Liege 1s tinder con trol of tho anarch iota, and tha city 1a really at their mercy. In many instances mobs of an archists hare stopped people in tho atrecta and 1 demanded money, threatening violence If it wan not given them. They havo also broken window* in a great number of honaea and I •hope. Tha garrteon b confined within the teurnwhaUi readinessforaervico.

A large number of warrant, for the arrest of persons engaged in the diaturbrneae have been tentd. A man named Van Wagoner wu today KMenead to six Imonths' imprison ment for inciting the strikers re pillage.
