LONDON. May 14. The commis

issued orders for the arrest of all
subjects of enemy countries of mili
tary age. It Is expected that all
these will be arrested or roluntarlly
surrender w'thln a few days.
LONDON. May 14. The state
ment of Premier Asqulth in the
Mouse of Comons todsy, that all
aliens of enemy countries of military
age. between 17 and 6. would bs
interned and that this applies to
those naturallxed against whom there
was any suspicion, and that the oth
ers would be repatriated, has satis
fied those persons who were agitat
ing for some drastic action.
As a result the riots in London and
provincial towns have largely gub
. sided. Such rioting as did take place
I today aad tonight waa carried on by
mobs of boys, girls and women, who
jw.r. out for fun or bent on looting
German shops, while men stood
by laughing or encouraging their
youthful Imitators. The police
strongly reinforced by special con
stables, were better able to handle
the situation today.

Follow! of the wild sons of rtrday
nd UU lest night some K or more
acttv participants In attacks en German
hope appeared In the police court of
London today, and the maglstret. read
them severe lectures snd Imposed heavy
penalties la most case. Some o( the
wore culpable were sentenced to Jail
terms at hard labor, the sentences reus
ing from a month to four months. Oth
rs, ohleriy women, were fined. When
men of military age appeared before the
magistrate they were told sharply that
the beet way to get revenge on the Ger
mans was to enlist.
In this latter connection the Wnt
Ynln4r Oaxette stld toAaV:
"People who hunt alien snd assault
their persons and loot their . shop are
tint the people who ere going te help
us right our wrong. They are loafers
and shirkers who are not going to wsr,
and whose vlolenoe has no pa'.rlotle mo
tive." .
It Is notable that no complaints her
tn reoelved of aliens ' Buffeting from
personal Injury. Of the many hundreds
who appeared at the American ombaasy
end consulate today neeklng protection,
none showed signs of having been en
gaged In encounter, . but they desired
compensation for the damag done their
property and assurances that there would

localities wher the shops were wrecked
and goods destroyed must pay icomnen

so that In many esses the very people

fcsv to pay their share.
At South End the authorities took a
too re serious view of the caae, as many
or the men arrested were prominent
nitlaene, who were angered by the recent
7.enl!n raid. They were remanded for
a. week end heavy ball was demanded.
Naturalised Germans, Austrian snd
Turks were today aiming oeolaratlons
repealing their oatha or allegiance to
Oreat Britain. One memorial from men

been sent direct te King George. Other
memorials hove heen handed to the may

i Streams of Germans poured Into the

general. Ilobert V. Skinner. we unabl te
do anything for them except te make an
appeal In their behalf to Scotland Tsrd,
which promised to do Its utmost te pro
tect them.
Few ot the Germans who went to the
, consulate havs suffered peraonal Injury
.and many of tliera have not been mo
lested In sny.way. They applied to Mr.

protection tn rase ef further outbreaks.
About twenty Oermans, among -whom
were a number ef weeping women and
children, called at the American em
baaey. They were advUed to apply to
the German branch of the American em
luy at Carlton House Terrene, the for
mer location of the German embassy.
These peraons, however, evidently feared
te go to this address, for E. Q. Lowry of
