FRENCH SWINDLES.
A NEW ARREST. PARIS, Jan. 24. Renewed Stavisky rioting took place early this morning in the vicinity of the chamber, mostly by students and Communists. There were 120 arrests. In addition to the arrest of Georges Alexandre, for fraud, Charles Neuburger has been arrested. He founded a small bank near the Opera in 1907 of a capital of 7,000,000 francs. It is believed that 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 francs are involved in the failure. The French Press is calling Alexandre, Stavisky the Second, pointing out that the directors of his various companies included two deputies, 18 prefects, 30 Treasury commissioners, 66 judges, and 12 police commissioners.
