into one OF the cars OF the Union Passenger
Line, on Ninth street, near Locust and was
ordered to leave by the conductor This she
declined to do when the conductor ordered
the driver to resort TO the usual expedient of
running the car off the track. While this was
being done,h number ofpeople in the neig hbor-
hood got wind OF the affair, and a large crowd
began to assemble, and indications OF distur-

TO the expedient of throwing stones at the car,
