HUNDREDS INJURED IN SEVILLE RIOTS Troops Charge General Strike Throngs, Firing Shots and Wielding Sabers. By the Associated Press. SEVILLE, June 24—Several persons were gravely injured and about 100 suffered minor hurts in the rioting on the streets of Seville today as an out- growth of a general strike. More than 150 persons were injured in disorders yesterday and the fighting ‘was resumed today as the strikers again began demonstrations. Among those injured in today’s disorders was a child who was reported to be dying. Martial l]aw was in effect. Cafes and business houses were closed, the inhabi- tants of the city were mostly indoors and the streets were deserted except where the strikers were congregating. The boy reported dying was struck by a stray bullett. Two women and two men suffered skull fractures and several others were reported seriously injured. The number of those arrested was not revealed, but the jails were filled to overflowing. At a dozen different sections in the residential and factory districts the battles raged, infuriated stvikers and sympathizers clashing with police and civil guards both mounted and afoot. ‘The troopers charged frequently, knocking the rioters down with horses and firing many shots, mostly into the air. They also used the butts of their pistols and rifles and wielded the flat sides of their sabers. The city was quiet early today, the second day of the general strike, but by mid-morning non-union bakers began selling bread on the streets. Striking union bakers and other strikers there- upon attacked them. Many small street fights were the be- ginning, but by noon these had grown imto serious mob clashes. Early this afternoon most of the serious fighting was checked Two_heavily-armed civil guards rode on each street car which attempted to run, but every car was attacked and all were forced to return to their barns. It was with difficulty that wounded persons were taken to the hospitals, be- cause of the absence of taxicabs and because few were brave enough to ven- ture out in private motor cars.
