banners-the stars and stripes, and one bear
ing the portrait of William Of Orange; also a
small banner, with the inscription, "Ameri-

time for band of music, which nj last az

time the police stationed on the side of the
street made rush on the mob, and It was

being twice attacked BY the rioters Who were
