The governor addressed the mob from
the steps OF the state house, and was
quietly received. and even applauded,

Things Hogan to Look Serious.
The rotunda was packed with crowd
OF men who were waiting to hear the re-
suit Of their leaders efforts to present
their grievances to the assent bled solons,
and when NJ. l.. Swift, III avowed an
archist, and the spokesman of the mob,
appeared In one of the balconies, and
told them that the Legislature had re-
fused to accept their petitions, they
broke into yells of derision and Kisses of
contempt. swift leaned over the bal
| cony railing, and launched forth into an
| lnpassioned TRADE against the legis-
lators who he said, were
Too Busy Creating Corporations
to listen to the voices of the starving
men. His voice shook with emotion as
| he denounced the treatment the men
had received, aud his ominous threats to
clean out the state house were received
with hoarse shouts OF appreciation. The
brass buttoned officials and doorkeepers
seemed paralyzed with fear, and Gov
ernor Greenhalge. who but few mo-
ments before was mingling with
tr'' mob, wisely retired to the
sess~slative chamber. The few po-
iicemen who had been detailed to
take care of the crowd were powerless,
and soon the police wagon from the
nearer stations were flying through the
streets leading to Beacon hill, loaded
with blue coats and soon there were lOG
policemen on the scene. An officer
was quick to apprehend an acci-
dent, and placing his hand upon
Swift's shoulder, warned him
of the danger. Swift stopped speaking,
and the furious crowd below mistook
the action for an arrest, and rent the air
with curses and execrations upon the
police. They swayed back and forth,
and it seemed as if violence was to be
used, but the speaker quickly assured
his followers Of the real state of affairs,
and the excitement subsidized.

law in effect permits unofficial persons
