black boy shout Is years old. Mr..
PortDer finally captured the leader and
cbasiised him. The eau e Of this riot
Gus scene wss collision between an su-
tomobile owned aud driven by Mr.. Port
ner and brick wagon. As result
of the accident the motorist narrowly
escaped death, his machine Was almost
demolished, mule was killed, and the
traction traffic was blockaded for more
than an hour When about fifty yards
from the south end of the bridge Mr..
Portner attempted To pass brick wagon
70 which was attacked mule team driv-
en- BY a colored boy, who is ssid to have
been asleep at the time. Awakened by
the antics of his frightened team, the
negro youth became confused while at
tempting to avoid collision, and drove
directly in the path Of the machine,
which was travelling about twenty miles
sn hour. Mr.. Porlner. in endeavoring
10 avoid the wagon, drove the machine
into the curb, completely demolishing
the right front wheel. Reboundlng, the
automobile struck one of the mules, sew
eriug its left hind leg. Mr.. Portner'S
presence of mind and quick action alone
saved him from being hurled to the
pavement. When the negro driver had
recovered from bis fall from the wagon
as result of the collision, he began
throwing rocks at Nr. POrtner. This
attracted about fifty negroes symPaih'z'
ing with the boy. Mr.. Portner sooD
captured the youth and sat upon him
until he was subdued. TIE wrecksge
on the electric car tracks delayed travel
for more than an hour.
