　　Protests in New York City are intensifying as hundreds of anti-capitalist
demonstrators push back against police and dismantle barriers around Wall
Street. The Occupy Wall Street protesters have promised a major show of strength
Thursday on the two-month anniversary of their movement. Demonstrators have
vowed to shut down the city's financial district with a rally at the New York
Stock Exchange. As the situation escalated, several protesters could be seen
being arrested.
        　　The latest development comes two days after the city evicted protesters
from Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan, where they had been camping since
September. They were allowed to return to the public space, but were prohibited
from camping. The protesters say they plan to take Thursday's demonstration to
the city's subways and major bridges. New York Deputy Mayor Howard Wolfson told
reporters Wednesday the city was preparing for a crowd of "tens of
thousands."
