The Labor Rumpus at st. LeuIs.-1he Police
Have the Situation well in Hand.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, April 2S.-In accord
ance with the orders issued last night,
four companies of the police reserve regi-
ment, Col. Butler commanding, repaired
to the Four Courts building, in which
are the police headquarters, and are now
stationed there IN readiness for an emer-
gency. A company of light cavalry I'M
der Lieutenant Holiday, and Winters
battery of four guns, belonging to the
National Guard, were also there, SUBJ
ject to a moments call.
Gov Crittenden arrived early this
morning and is now in consultation with
the Police Commissioners. The entire
police force of the city is on duty, also
the special men called into service by
the Commissioners. Four men OF the
regular force are stationed at each cor
ner on Olive street from Twelfth street
down to Fourth street the eastern termi-
nus of the Olive street road, and a like
disposition of men has been made on
Washington avenue. There are also
squads of mounted police patrolling
both streets. At the stables of these
companies, in the western part of the
city, there is also large force stationed.
The morning opened cloudy, and from
about to $50 O'Clock brisk shower
fell, but at this writing the sky has clear
are no unusual crowds on the streets yet,
and one would not think from the gener-
al appearance of things that riot and
perhaps blood shed is in anticipation.
The cars will start from the stables in
the western part of the city at $780, and
will reach Fourth street, if not molested,
at about 10 o'clock.
John Ford, president of the Trades
assembly, publishes card this forenoon,
denying the charge that the trades
unions of the city have been managing
the strike of car conductors and drivers.
Maurice Guther, president of the St.
Louis typographical union, is also out
with card denying that John j. Hogan,
who has been very active in the interest
of the strikers, is an officer of that I'M
ion, as has been published.
BY half past 8 O'Clock considerable OF
a crowd had collected on Olive street,
between Fifth and Sixth, but the police
kept it moving so constantly that it could
not concentrate or obstruct any particu-
lar spot. All were served alike, the bus
mess men who stopped 10 look out of
curiosity, the rough fellow who might,
under favorable circumstances, Gre
ate trouble, and the street gamin
were hustled along promiscuously and
not permitted to loiter minute. At
0 80 the first car appeared at the top of
the ascent at Sixth street and was hailed
with slight cheer. Itcontained twelve
persons, three of whom were its drivers
and conductor and Rolla Wells, the ST.
periniendent of the road was on the front
platform.
( = squad of fifteen mounted police
rode close behind 1t passed rapidly 10
the turn table al the corner of Fourth
street, swung around and proceeded i'm
mediately on its return trip. a number
of other cars followed in rapid success
sion. About this time the crowd grew
rapidly larger, hundreds f1ocking from
cross adjacent streets to see what was
going on, but the police were fully equal
to the emergency. Capt. Kenneit, who
was in charge at this point, formed his
men in double line entirely across the
street, and marching them up and down
for two blocks, soon had the space clear.
: The crowd generally took this treat
ment good naturally, and after seeing
the authorities were in real earnest,
quietly dispersed, and by eleven O'Clock
the street had resumed its usual appear
ance, except that the police renamed to
prevent any further gathering OF the
people. No violent demonstration was
made, and very slight disposition to be
unrulIy cropped out; few epithets
were launched at the new conductors
and drivers, but this was all.
About the same scene as the above oc-
CURED on Washington avenue. The
start on this line was not quite so early
as on Olive street, but when the cars
did begin to move they followed each
other rapidly and without molestation.
The police carried out the same plan
here as on Olive street, and the crowd
soon grew tired of being forced TO keep
moving and quietly dispersed. The
strike is ended, and from the way things
look all the roads will be running to-
morrow.
The troops at the Four Courts were
not needed and the first regiment nation
al guards remained buietly in their
armory corner of Washington avenue
and Fourth street, and viewed the oper-
atoms of the police from their windows.
The police proved that they were fully
able to cope with the crowds, and had
there been ever so riotous disposition
manifested they could have easily
quelled it. They behaved admirably
and deserve credit for discipline and
