ic threatening in a crowd estimated
at $4,000 people, surging about the

ment were suddenly terminated after

Longworth.
The prompt action is regarded as
fortunate for the crowd was beyond
control and the shrieking of women
and children who were caught in the
crush, was rapidly working it into a
frenzy. Many women tainted and
were carried away by the police. Two
were so badly hurt that they
had to be removed in an ambulance
Both will recover.
Throughout the excitement Mrs
Longworth remained cool and self
possessed. but afterwards she said:
1T was the worst crush I ever wit
messed. / never saw anything like it,
The committee on arrangements had
cApecteu an enormous aLLenuance on
account of the presence of Mrs Long
worth, but in view of the solemnity
and dignity of the occasion, they be-
neved the crowd would be easily eon-
trolled Under ordinary circumstances
the police arrangements would have
been adequate, but the officers quick
ly found themselves powerless.
The programme was postponed till
evening when the addresses were de-
livered.
