STARTING FROM THE BARN.

was with these the police had the tough
est work, for whenever the strikers pick
cts gave the alarm of an approaching car
at any point the crowd was first
to respond and followed the run
ming brotherhood men to the place
where they were wanted. Thus from one
point to another the action shifted, devel-
oping the wearing-out policy of the COM
pany in repeated running of cars with a
Euggestiveness of a grand coup in reserve.
But the master stroke, If the company
had anv in reserve, was not brought to
bear on the situation. When noon came
the crowd was less manageable than at the
beginning. 1t began to show the impulse,
fiery temper and unreasonableness of the
mob. What the strikers themselves did
and said was free from those ugly features
of the struggle. But all morning, at first
little by little, then increasing rapidly, the
mob spirit became assertive. 1t was that
which abused the policemen, its natural
enemies, led to the outbreak at the strategic
point, the injuring of several officers and
men, and ominous signs for the afternoon if
the attempt 10 run cars was continued. The
result of the morning struggle was the
taking OF few cars from the end of the
Central-ave. and Tennessee-st. lines to the
Louisiana-st. barn, the ditching of others,
sore heads, badly injured policeman and
the arrest of eighty men.

the cars. There were but few passengers,
not more than three at the most, on any
OF them. There were enforced stops, as
the strikers stood in the way, but the
police. following closely their instructions,
were enabled to make way for most of
the cars, while strikers would lift, or at
tempt to lift. them off the track. While
they were doing this patrol wagon would
drive up, get load and then start for the
police station. BY this time Illinois-st from
Washington down to the Union station
was almost as clear of people as a country
road.
But by II o'clock Illinois-st at the cor
ner of Georgia again become the point of
danger and conditions were most threat
ening. The good humor of the crowd
began to show wear and tear, but the
police were as determined and self pos
sessed as it they had just begun their hard
days work. The first knocking about
of the morning in an attempt to re-
lease prisoner then occurred.
That, as was the greater
part of the ugly phases of the time, was
caused by outsiders. In fact the strikers,
although many OF them were persistent in
opposing the company at all times. after
the first car reached the corner of Georgia
and Illinois were lost sight of and the
outer forces. that have never had any con-
nection with the company, appeared. 1t

DAY OF TuMULT.
Some Cars Run After Very Sorry
Fashion.


Fashion.
II was understood Friday afternoon that
the Citizens street railroad company
would make a vigorous effort Saturday
morning to break the knot that kept its
cars tied up. President Frenzel at the
time was in that state Of confidence which
one acquires from resources, that mean
support of formidable character. His staff
OF assistants were in like degree OF hope
fulness, giving to all inquirers their as
surance that the company was winning.
Men had come 10 them expressing a will
ingAess to move the cars, old employees of
the company and others who had been
in its employ. Mr.. Frenzel, when he
considered himself ready to proceed to his
Gaze went to the mayor, and with list OF
fifty men or more told what he wished to
do. Each one of the men was a resident
of indianapolis, he said. and some of them
taxpayers. many were men of families and
all had an interest in the city's welfare.
Upon this assurance the mayor told him
to 60 ahead and be should have the as
sistance of the police. This was sufficient
for Frenzel and he gave out soon afterward
that he would move cars yesterday morn
ing from the Louisiana, w. Washington
and Shelby-st. barns. But he had another
initial point of operation, one that he did
not desire to give away, one where the
vigorous effort was to De made. He did
not take the public into his confidence as
to this point and his announcement sent
the crowds around the three stables
named. While they were gathering there
they let the most interesting place of that
hour IN the morning, the New Jersey-st
barn, pass without much attention. The
strikers were on guard there and had been
al the time. Three cars were taken out
and run down town TO the corner of
Georgia and Iilinois-st.. where the first
serious demonstration of the morning
occurred. The crowd in five minutes num-
bered fully twenty-five hundred and for
three quarters of an hour, no progress
was made. While this was going three
other cars came down the same route.
Central-ave., as lar as the circle, where
some opposition was made but turning
about went up town again without him
drance OF any moment. The first car
left the New Jersev-st. barn at 7:15 and
a. s o'clock was still held by the crowd
at the corner of Georgia and Illinois-sts.
The police, dozen or so of them, were
active, prevented the strikers and their
active friends froIn unhItchiag the mules,
kept them under control, and at
SIP had the first batch OF
prisoners ready to be sent TO the police
station. It was then that five OF the most
boisterous, persistent and aggressive of
the crowd were carried off in the patrol
wagon. Shortly after few more went the
same way and the throng began to dwindle
perceptiblv.
But previous to this the three cars had
been taken to the Louisiana-st barn.
Then the action moved with celerity to
the corners of Meridian and Washington
and Pennsylvania and Market-sts.
where other cars from uptown
and on the same route, Pennsylvania and
Central-ave. line, appeared. The strikers
were ready and with cries and hurrahs
greeted the drivers and the occupants OF

A QUIET.
The Calm After the storm with Signs OF
Pence.

The Calm After the storm with Signs OF
Peace.
The city was as quiet Sunday as If it
was not Sunday after hours of excite
ment, rioting, and further danger lurking
in the midst of probable mobs, mobs that
were likely to spring into existence any
where about moving street car. But the
spirit OF disorder passed as quickly as it
came. The afternoon of Saturday crowds
fingered about the squares of Illinois-st.
from Washington to the Louisiana-st.
barn. In them, too, was the restless and
threatening element that comes out OF its
hiding place in time of trouble to get its
revenge on society until law and order
cow and drive it back to its place of
cOncealment. The controversy between the
street car men and the company was forgot
ten in the unceasing talk overthe events of
the morning. 1t was the mob, the ten porarv
and slight CONFUSION that had attacked
order, that was uppermost in mems minds.

Democrats, Keep Your Eyes Open.

THE INDIANAPOLIS SENTINEL sounds
warning to the democrats of Indiana, and
tells them that plans are being laid to
send delegates from this state to the ma
tional convention who will claim they are
for Gray, but who, in reality, will be for
Governor Hill. There is no doubt an at
tempt will be made to sell the party out In
some such a manner. and all democrats
who do not want it that way should keep
their eyes wide open and understand
exactly what they are doing.

the committee. He fairly staggered his
republican associates as he exclaimed: /:
II have voted the republican ticket all my
life. At the present time / see a large
exodus Of my friends into the democratic
party, and I believe it is due to the stand
the republican party takes ON the tariff.
! am aware that there is no common
bond between these people and the dem
ocratic party other than this tariff ques-
ton and it is within our power to win
them back and return to our old-time
republican majorities."

To those engaged in the strike:

To those engaged in the strike:
1t is known to you that the undersigned
has endeavored to help you in getting
what was your due. and that his earnest
desire has been, without infringing on the
rights of others, to further yours. Ii is
necessary now to speak TO you words of
true friendship, and to advise you at a
moment when false step may bring con-
sequences of a most disastrous nature. 1t
is never allowable to do wrong to secure a
right. Now it is wrong 20 interfere with
the right of the company to move its cars,
to make use of its property according to
its franchise; and this right the company
has the law must protect. You see, there
fore, that you not only interfere with the
company's right. when you prevent the
cars running. but you.fnd yourselves in
opposition to the law, that is 10 authority.

Itmay be dissolved upon further hearing
or it may be continued. Mr.. STEELE will
no doubt have the cars running,
and in the meantime it is to be
hoped that some permanent settlement of
the existing difficulties may be reached.
Mr.. STEELE's appointment was doubtless
due to his long service with the
company and his familiarity with the
practical details of street railway manage
ment. Nevertheless, in view of the hos

one hand, and President FRENzEL and the
