some policemen who were hanging around
with instructions to watch closely what
was going on. At go o'clock MI Good
proceeded to execute the transfer and or
dered Mr.. Benner TO drive rapidly out Of the
rear entrance. As the wagon came out of
the gate a policeman grabbed at tile reins
and ordered a halt As the order was dis

was Immediately answered by four or five
other policemen, who came running up aud
jOined in the effort to stop the wagon.
The Fort-street car had just crossed King
and alongside Of it was dray. This com
petely barred the progress OF the wagon.
One Of the policemen seized the bit, but was
warned of ty Mr.. Good, revolver in hand.
Another endeaYOTed to climb up, but re-

behind him as though to draw a revolver

been dismissed, no danger being anticipated

been made therefor. and the latest report
from official circles is to the effect that both
