For q tune Rallies seemed deSirous of maintain i ing d conversation and forcing eX- plantations. but he was discouraged so often and with such bl0odthirstiness that he finally gave it up.
 An hour later, by means of the telephone, two bicyclists and an auto, Teddy managed to get into communi- cation with Constable Drew. At o'clock that official appeared, accom- 1 panied by {: crowd of men and boys and dogs to the number of forty.
