The Polish campaign against Germany is continuing with unabated violence, despite tho German Legation’s protests against the excesses at Lodz. Anti-German demonstrations occurred at Poznan, where a large crowd, including, numerous students, forcibly removed all German papers and periodicals from the kiosks, and subsequently made a bonfire of them on tho public square. Similar demonstrations took place at Rybnik (Eastern Upper Siberia), in the course of which a collision occurred between students and persons belonging to the German minority.

Anti-German demonstrations, planned at Warsaw by students, have been prevented by the police.
