A DAIRYMAN’S ORDEAL
MOBBED AND HALF KILLED. - _ - • COWARDLY BAVARIAN CROWD. ’ Pieas Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. BERLIN, August 9. Spasmodic anti-Semitic outbreaks an still occurring. Boisterous crowds at Memmingen besieged the house of Rosenbaum, a Jewish dairyman, and demanded milk for the whole town. When Rosenbaum declared that, acting on Govern'' ment’s instructions, he had sent the whole of his stock to Nurenburg, the mob demanded 1,000,000 marks for the poor, threatening him with the gallows. The Mayor vainly tried to reason with the crowd, whom the police were powerless to disperse. Eventually the police arrested the dairyman in the interests of his own safety. The demonstrators followed him to prison, hung cowbells round his neck, kicked him, and spat on him, with the result that he reached the prison half dead. The police had the greatest difficulty in saving his life.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
