Ntrmsrous Arrests Made Ameri - ican Woman Exhibits Herself as a Ranting Royalist 7- Exciting Scene in Chamber of Deputies. Pakis, June 5. President Loubet was assaulted by a mob at the Ateuil races yes ter dry. There was a storm of hoots, yells and cries of "Panama," "A bas Loubet," and "Vive rAnDee." A few shouts of "Vive Loubet" were drowned in the clamor. A strong force of police kept or der and arrested many of the distur bers, including a man to f orce f his way to the President's carriage. During the second race the clamor increased the violance, and was plainly directed by committee of the League of Patriott, collected . with their supporters both before and be hind the Presidential stand. At this crisis of the excitement, while shouts of "Vive PArmee," and "Vive Deroulede" were heard on all sides. Count Ohristiani rushed to ward the President, brandishing a stick, and directed a b'low against him, striking his hat. The crowd rushed upon Ohristiani, who onlv escaped severe - handling by being taken under police protection. President Loubet remained all the while quite unmoved, talking to the Premier, while the officers of his mil itary household were defending his against violence. Finally, after thirty arrests had been made, the prefect of police ordered the Repub lican Guards to surround the Presi dential stand. Further accounts show that the whole race course, particularly in the inclosure, witnessed scenes of the wildest excitement. Comtesse Boni de Oastellane, who was Miss Anna Gould, of New York city, placed herself srt the heod of the jeunnesse royalists, marched uy and down the lane, shouting, "Vive PArmee." TRINITY NOTES.
