Within T hours 27 persons were killed, 6 serious- ly wounded, hundreds more | slightly and 1200 arrested, of whom 200 were held for trial Strikes in sympathy with the rioters sent out 6,000 men in Berlin alone and spread rapidly to provincial labor thousand patients at the New Jersey | centers. State Hospital for the Insane, at Grey- stone, near Morris Plains, were terrified by a fire that burned part of the main building early today. From the rignt wmg, which w stroyed, 1400 men were removed safety. For a time it seemed as if much more of the institution would be destroyed, and plans were made tfo move 1,000 women in an adjoining wing. The men from the right wing were put in sections remote irom the | fire Starting in the cupola, the fire ate its way down to the fifth story of the | right wing before it was discovered Quick work on the part of the in- stitution’s fire department and the at- tendants, doctors and nurses, prevented injury to any of the inmates in the danger zone. Many were moved With | difficulty. A few velled in frenzy. Guards marched the patients. clad in nothing but their night clothes, out of the burning wing. Dr. Marcus Curry, superintendent of the hospital, estimated the damage at $1.000,000. Thousands of residents of nearby towns, aroused by sirens and the glare of the flames, hastened to the scene. and it was necessary for police to es- tablish line SOCGIETY | (Continued From Eighteenth Page) | for the preservation of historical places | and treasures of old Virginia, will make | a pilgrimage to Oak Hill, Va., and other | historic homes on May 18. ; Mrs. George Tully Vaughan, presi- dent, has made arrangements _Inr 2 bus to take those who do mot wish to drive their own cars.

BUDAPEST, Hungary, May. 6 (#).—| Police announced yesterday they had | unearthed a Communist plot against the | government and had arrested five sus- | cts, who possessed considerable se- | ditious literature. Leadership in the revolt was in the hands of Communists, who were faced in the frony of things, by a_determined Socialist _chief of police. There w reports that Berlin would send a dip- lomatic protest to Moscow against action of Communist agents in foment- ing and directing the rjots.
