the car men, but every labor organization
in the city. and even the State he said.
His address met with much APPRECIATION.
All around him said that this was so and
to go ahead, which he did in the same
strain. When at 1890 o'clock the cars
had not moved, the strike sympathizers
declared that they did not believe strike
breaker in the bunch had courage enough
to run the cars through that crowd. One
OF the strike.breakers told a union man a
short time afterwards that they would
take those cars through or die in the at

Ranks are Trimmed Out.
AS the night advanced many of those
who had gathered began slowly to drop
off and go home. Many OF them had to
get up early this morning and go to
work. But the faithful hung on and
waited. The firemen were still present,
but had ceased to ply the muddy James
River fluid. so many OF the crowd moved
UP and talked with the soldiers. Just
before midnight one of the lleutenants
came to the knots OF sympathiEers and
said: Young men, you are all just kept
here by idle curiosity, and wish you
would go home peaceably and let US get
a little rest. We have been on duty forty
eight hours and are broken down.
This address to the various groups had
considerable effect. and many at his
request did go home. At ten minutes to
IL the cars were taken back to the sheds
under guard. having gone but four blocks.
The cars were all of the open kind. and
there was not much glass about them,
but this was splintered In many pieces.

Altogether 1t was night OF uneasinessl
and wild rumors. Fulton was the scene
OF large crowds and some attacks on tina
cars. but no serious damage is reported
from that quarter. Owing to the menace
Ing crowds and the desire to avoid blood
shed. the cars were withdrawn about 10
o. clock or shortly before. The last car
from Chimborazo on the Main and broad
Streets line went in about 9:45, and had
a safe trip past Eighteenth and Broad
Streets and thence to Main. a convoy
of miliuamen was on board the car
and detachments OF the Blues ,catrolled
Eighteenth Street from Main to Broad
and along Main from Seventeenth to Nine
tenth. keeping people on the move and
preventing the congregation OF crowds.
Persistent reports reached The Times
and menacing crowd at Eighteenth and
Broad Streets, but a reporter dispatched
to the scene found no foundation what
ever for the ruuor. The Blues were
quietly patrolllng the streets, which were
almost deserted before 9go'clock. It was
into Eighteenth Street ind thence moved
on to Main. Absolutely no disturbance
marked the passage OF the car.
It was nearly 10 o'clock when the anx-
ious groups along lower Main Street
sighted car returning from Fulton. It
was the first for half an hour or more,
In the distance the lights cleaned. and
slowly the car made its way. with many
stops. While the knots and groups along
the street were waiting some excitement
was caused about Eighteenth and Main
Streets by a report like tho discharge of
e, hrearm, followed moment later by
nve or six others. The first impression
was that the troops had delivered vol
ley at some missile-thrower.. and there was

cidentaI Discharge.
Two accidents resulted yesterday from
the explosion OF muskets handled by
some OF the soldiers. Several were In
tured. but In no case will the wounds
prove serious.
In front Of the West End School about
II O'clock last evening several members
OF the West Augusta Guards. OF Staun-
ton, were gathered about looking after
the Main Street cars. One OF the young
men, McClung. was standing In the street
lust beyond the curb. and while there
he attempted to reload his musket The
hammer flew down with unexpected
force. or something else happened. and
the gun went off. The bullet hit the
stone. broke into pieces and scattered
about in different directions. Three
members OF the company standing
were hit by the pieces and more or less
painfully injured. One Of them. VIII
liam Deverick, was struck In the right
leg Just below the knee and had to be
taken to the Old Dominion Hospital,
where he will be laid up for a few days.
Another OF the men-Croft-was struck
In the back and still another-Dyche-
in the arm. Neither OF these two were
hurt much. and 1t Is thought that II they
will have to remain from duty at all, 1t
will not be for long. f5
IN the West End Governor Montague
ordered Colonel Anderson to take care
OF the cars and see them into the barns.
This he did. employing about six COM
panies. While they were getting ready
a gun accidentally exploded In the rear
OF the column and four soldiers and a
civilian were slightly hurt.
