Entrance to the Court House.

Entrance to the Court House.
Chicago Oct 19.-About $50 o'clock
last night the crowds in Michigan street
were augmented by over a score of men
from the vicinity of Luetgert's sausage
factory, on Hermitage avenue and Di-
versy street. They were assertive and
unruly, and demanded admission to the
court building. This was refused them,
but they were so persistent word was
sent up stairs. The deputies at the
door, fearing a rush for admission, tel
ephOned to the East Chicago avenue
police station for more officers.
The alteration drew crowd which
quickly cholxed the entrance. Captain
Hoffman, of the East Chicago avenue
station, sent a patrol wagon filled with
officers to the scene on hurry up"
run When the officers reached the
building they drew their clubs, and,
aided by a score of deputy sheriffs
quickly collected in the building, drove
the crowd back The friends of Luet-
CERT had by this time been reinforced
by about 200 other people from the
crowds. But they retreated after a few
vigorous applications of the clubs. The
mob took up a stand near the middle
of the street and jeered the police, while
small boys with tin horns added their
quota to the discord which swelled from
the deep Iunged wOuId-be rioters.
