s,reo, RAILWAY TroubIes AT Toronto

ToRoNTo, March u. - The street
railway troubles assumed a serious
aspect to day, According to instruc-
tions of the president of the company,
the running OF the cars was left in the
hands of the city commissioner. Late
this morning car manned with
force of police left the stables and
started out over the Front street route.
A mob Immediately appeared and
adopted obstructive tactics, and be-
fore the car had proceeded very many
blocks the street was completely
blockaded by coal carts, express
wagons, etc. The police were power
less to stop this, and the attempt to
get the car through was abandoned,
The car was then turned toward the
stables, when the mob attacked It and
completely wrecked it. The driver
and conductor were seized by the
rioters and were pretty severely in
iured before being rescued by the POI
lice. A squad of mounted police here
came upon the scene and charged the
mob, using their batons freely. Sew
ersll of the mob were struck by stones
and injured, while one policeman was
Knocked off his horse, but was not
seriously hurt. Two arrests were
made. and, in spite of the efforts that
were made to rescue them, the
prisoners were taken to the station
The horses of the car Were
taken back to the stables, and
preparations were made TO run another
car on the King and Yonge street
route. The police were reinforced
and strong detachments were located
along the route. The mob repeatedly
charged and attempted to disable the
car, but the police were determined
and succeeded in getting the cal
through. The batons were again free
ly used, and with good effect. The
