MOB ATTACKS DRIVER.
Runs Down Child-PoIice Save Him
From Crowd.

NEW YORK. July 11.-Nathan Shultz
! driver of big wagon for firm of Brook
lyn bakers, refined up his horses early
yesterday evening when crowd Of men
and women surrounded his wagon in
East Hath street. opposite Thomas Jeffer-
son Park. Their excited shouts that he
had killed a child was the first knowledge
that Shultz had that his wagon had struck
Clementino Dazasio, eighteen months old
of 425 East Hath street. for he had not
seen the rear wheels knock the child over.
The crowd pulled Shultz off his box and
dragged him into a nearby hallway.
Women struck and spat a. him. and men
drew long knives, waving them threaten
ingly near his head and shouting to one
another to kill him. Shultz struck back
but his blows only served to further en-
rage the mob.
He was being badly beaten when Sergt.
England and Detective Gleason. with
drawn revolvers. charged the crowd and
got hold of Shultz The crowd continued
threa tening, however. and the policemen
ran Shultz into drug store at LIST avenue
and 114th street.
The crowd followed, but Gleason stood
in the doorway and threatened to shoot
the first man or woman who tried to get
past him, while England used the tele-
phone to call the reserves from the East
1O4th street station. These reinforce
ments found the crowd, which had swell
ed to one of several Thousand persons,
preparing to rush Gleason despite the fact
that his revolver was pointed directly at
the crowds front ranks.
With their night sticks the reserves
beat a way through ind, surrounding
Shultz and the detectives, fought way
into list avenue and down to the station
house. There shultz was held for as:
Sault.
Meantime. DR.. Herity of Harlem Hos
pital had found that little Clementino' S
INJURIES were slight. One of her ribs had
been broken, and she was suffering from
shock but the doctor who took her TO
the hospital said she would be well soon.

RETAINING BANK GIVES WAY.
Water and Mud Pumped on Potomac
Flats Causes Accident

The high pressure of waste water and
mud pumped from the Georgetown chan
mel upon the Potomac fats near 18th and
3 streets northwest caused about 100 feet
of the retaining embankment to give way
about 3 o'clock this morning.
Streets and sidewalks in the vicinity are
strewn with mud. The speedway also
suffered considerable damage. The top
turf has been washed over the pave
ments and the roadway is now a hard,
rough surface.
One of the employees stated that the
break was caused by the extreme pres
sure of the mud which has been pumped
into the retaining reservoirs during the
past few weeks. The water he stated
had not been given enough time to run off
Another break similar to that of today
occurred earlier in the week, when an
embankment on the west side of the
reservoir gave way.
