tion Of Cruelty to Animals
Arrested for Cruelty.

Mr.. Cyrus BossieuS. president OF the
Society Tor the Prevention OF Cruelty to
Animals, was in Police Court yesterday
morning to answer a warrant sworn out
by Agent Emmett Taylor, Of the Society,
charging him with working two horses
when they were badly CALLED and not At
for work. Mr.. Bossieux had the case
continued.
Since then he has had veterinary sur
geon examine the horses, and he pro-
counced them in fit condition for work.
MIR. Bossieux says he is an officer OF the
company that works the horses. and
therefore not personally responsible, but
at the same time he says that he would
not knowingly allow his horses to be over
loaded or worked when they were not in
fit condition.
agent Taylor has laid his evidence be-
fore Attorney Guigon and thinks the case
should be prosecuted as vigorously
against the president of the Society as 1t
would be against any outside person.

estimated that three hundred motormen
and conductors had responded to this
call. Here some hot-headed persons made
vigorous speeches. urging an immediate
march on the jail and swift punishment
for Watkins. Others as earnestly advised
against any such thing. Among this lat
ter was President Simmons, Of the Street
Car Mems Association.
He never spoke to better advantage or
did his men a better service. He declared
that there We're among them detectives
and secret agents to bring the men INTO
reproach and besInirch the good namo Of
the organization. He advised and begged
the men to go home. This was not
matter for the men to deal with. but for
the law Of the land.
CROWD DIVIDED.
Heads began to shake and many began
to say that Simmons was right. Inc
crowd was divided. The men who were
at heart opposed to the whole proceedings
began to get together, and presently
marched of to their homes.
Rnt more than a hundred were left and
thew marched down to Twenty-hrst and
Franklin Here they met Major Howard.
The chief had been awakened 81 his home
and dressing as quickly as he could,

WAS IMMINENT
Street Car Men Gathered for the
Purpose Early This Morning.
P0LlCERESERVES CALLED OUT
Wise Counsel Of President Simmons
and Others Counteracted the Hot
Speeches and Averted Attempt
to Lynch Negro Prisoner

Richmond passed through remarkable
scenes in the early hours of this Sunday
morning. The street car men of tho
city, to the number OF 300. made
demonstration against the city Jail, where
Edward Watkins. the negro who shot
Motorman Baber. is confined. Twenty
five policemen from the First and Second
Districts were ordered to the temporary
Jail on Nineteenth Street to protect the
man and ward off trouble. That their
presence saved the city a very different
and sadder story, there is little doubt
Major Howard Chief Of Police, Acting
Captain Jeter. Of tho First District, and
Captain Hulce, of the Second District,
with every private on duty in the First
and Second Districts were banked against
tho front door Of the jail at 2:30 o'clock
this morning. At this hour knots of a
dozen or more street car men were dis
tributed at many street corners in that
vicinity They seemed to be in consulta-
ton. but without a leader. AT o'clock
the men began to go home IN companies
Of two or three. At 4 o'clock practically
all had disappeared. leaving Major
Howard and his men in control of the
situation.
URGED AN ATTACK.
But early in the night word was passed
among them to meet at Twenty-tlrst and
Marshall At 1 o'clock this morning 1t is
