The Finance Committee of the Board
of Commissioners are investigating tho
alleged crookedness OF the bank officials
OF the city IN making false returns to the

Der of trsmps took possession OF the
Riverside mill, and commenced the de-

dows. The police were notified and sue
ceeded in capturing two of the crowd,
whom they locked up. While on the

when the police, as is their custom, again
exercised "terrible brutality" by refusing
10 procure carriage with cushions for
their prisoners, and instead used the
"nippers," and compelled the trsmps to
