William Radcliffe. a young man in the
Employ OF The ProYidence Ice company,
perhaps now wishes that he took the
advice OF Patrolman Dyer yesterday sf-
ternoon, for willy William was coming
down Broadway hill with load Of coal,
and In some way managed TO get a por-
ton OF the load on the car tracks. and
when requested by the patrolman to re-
move IL objected and was about 10 drive
on. when he was arrested and taken 10
the nearest patrol box and sent TO, the
Chaffee street station Al a drunk"
Mr.. Dyer called upon John McKenna. a
well-known citizen, TO drive the wagon to
the square, which Mr.. .McKenna kindly

somewhat limited, but according to all
reports performed the duty in a most
artistic manner

huge structure owned by the Rhode ISL
and Railroad company on Hartford ave We

named Spear went into the large room
for car. and during his absence some
one else. ran car on the tracks. In the

the tracks were clear. put on the Juice"
and In so doing bumped up against a car
that was already on the tracks and IL
did not stop until the entire underpinning
of the cleaning room was knocked out OF
shape. Just who is TO blame is not. or at
least was not known this morning. but
one fact Ia positive, and that is the porch
will have to be rebuilt.
