car on the North Beach and Mission rail
road missed the switch on Fourth street
opposite the car shed, and collided with a
car coming from the opposite direction.
In n few moments a crowd of several
hundred persons gathered, largely com
posed of hoodlums. The crowd amused
itself by hooting, yelling and firing stones
at the cars. 1t was then decided to stop
the running of all cars on the road before
more serious damage could be done. As
cars came along they were ordered in
for the night Each one was greeted
with chorus of boots and yells, and
volleys of stones, rotten eggs, potatoes,
etc. Were it not tor the presence
of large force of officers serious
trouble would probably have taken place.
OF the sixteen cars at work on the road,
all had their windows more or less broken.
Almost all the conductors, and many pas
sengers, were hit by the stones, but no
serious injuries have been reported. The
Superintendent of the road said that the
cars should be started at the regular time
tomorrow morning. They had all the
men that were needed, and could get many
more if necessary. After all the cars had
been safely housed the crowd gradually
dispersed and the vicinity of the car-house
resumed its normal aspect.
