All the streets around Warsaw University were still guarded to-day by strong forces of police, who several times had to beat back groups of National Democratic students who attempted to hold demonstrations. No serious trouble occurred to-day, owing to the vigilance and energy of the police.
The University secretariat has issued a statement announcing that those students who have been arrested for participating in the excesses have been deprived of all rights as students until after the disciplinary enquiry, when their cases will be dealt with according to the findings.
Those students who are still under arrest are liable, it is stated, to imprisonment for terms of three to six months.
The Rector of the University invited representative delegations of the Jewish and Christian Students’ Unions to visit him to-day, and demanded that they should issue proclamations calling upon their members to keep order, so that it should be possible to reopen the University. The Jewish delegation replied that it was only too willing to issue a proclamation of this kind if the other side would do the same, so that the Jewish students should feel themselves safe from further attack.
