Thonsands of return- ed men who manhandled the foreign agitators at their revolutionary meeting Sunday, and who proceeded to wreek committee rooms, cluhs and and stores suspected of enemy affiliations, adjourned to their beds last night fully determined to resume their work today. The police have received anonymous messages all morning telling them that every firm in Winnipeg which continues to have enemy foreigners, in their employ will be visited with the wrath of returned soldiers forthwith. A meeting og returned men has been tentatively called for 2 o clock this afternoon at the headquarters of the Great War Veterans Association io diseuss the plan of campaign. So far as known no interference by the authorities has been attempted, ex- cept that police, civil and military, are putting ont extra squads everywhere. Only two arrests have been made so far, both being of civilians who are charged with trespass and wilful damage in con- neetiqn with the raid last night on the automobile store of Michael Ert, a Canadian of Austro-Hungarian origin.
