there, General Mower ordered Lieutenant
Spadinm, his assistant adiutant general to
head Il squad Of mounted orderlies, and
halt the demonstrators OF violence. This
order was promptly executed, and the men
were stopped opposite the military head
quarters. General Mower addressed them
in substance as follows:
"If you feel yourselves wronged you
must apply TO the proper authorities for re
dress, and you shall have it. But if you
take this thing into your own hands YOU
may lose what rights You already possess
If you go on with this rloting, by the eternal
gods | will throw grape and canister into
you Now dispense, and ~ to your homes
or to your work"
The crowd OF impulsive men immediately
melted like ice exposed to the RAYS OF the
burning sun.
General Mower took the precaution to
order Maloney's battalion Of the First e. S,
Infantry to be in readiness to move at a
moments notice. Lieutenant SpalGiug
while on his way to Colonel Maloney's head,
quarters to communicate the order of Gen.
eral Mower, was thrown violently from his
horse, but fortunately escaped serious in
jury.
Had il not been for the DrOmpt orders of
General Mower and their immediate cxecu
tion by his staff officers there are reasons
to fear there would have been very serious
disturbances which would have crIIminated
in bloodshed and loss of life.
