he pulled his horses toward the side
walk and fed.
Although a mob of several hundred
men and boys surrounded the Wells
Fargo stables the company succeeded
IN getting all it's wagons down to the
ferry without mishap. When one of
the wagons loaded with hay was be-
ing driven back to the stable, however,
the mob surrounded it, hooting and
jeering the driver. No physical vio-
lence was attempted, however. until
the st~rjke-breaker alone on the box
of the vehicle drew q Clue. Then the
strikers ragged the driver from his
seat and gave him a trouncipg that
landed him in a hospital cot. He was
badly beaten when mounted police
rode up In a hail of cobblestones and
dragged him away from his bowling
