determined 10 Infect violence upon the seced-
els. The POI &c, who were called out to defend
the operatives, fought bravely against the over
whelmng numbers, and several of them were
badly wounded. They however succeeded in
getting the men under their protection, into
the station house, without injury as far as

The bells of the city were then rnng, and the
fire department summoned to the scene, who
immediae'y directed the streams from their fire
engines upon the crowd, which had the effect

was great and fears wee entertained that there
will be b'oodshed before the disturbance is
quelled, as the rioters swore TO XIII the men as
they leave the factory on Thursday night. The
m Eta were ordered out by the Cover Dor and
Council, to be in readiness at 5 o'clock Thurs.
