Discrimination in Favor Of Women Says Witness

The poor man strolled along Con-
gress avenue about o'clock to take
look at the crowd that had gathered
to watch the downtown fire. He stop
ped at several places along the way.
When he reached Main and Congress
he tilted himself forward and back
ward on the curbstone. He slipped
and began staggering. Several men
caught him and Strengthened him up.
Then a man with a high crowned hat,
with four dents, took him by the arm
and told him the other fellows had
tried to mob him.
"SoT inquired the unsteady one.
Reckoning to several other men, he
said: Come here, l wants to tell you
something"
They surrounded him, but he didn't
say anything. Then he called others.
Now look" he said. Some women
pushed into the crowd Just then and
looked. The man tossed his hat into
the gutter. then his coat, yanked on
his necktie and collar and shirt before
any one could stop him. Policeman
Altofer was close at hand. The men
in the crowd put the mans clothes
on him, but had hard time keeping
them on. Policeman Altofer tried to
lead the man to the police station,
but 1t was like carrying a bundle Of
lath.
No one happened to have a barrel
handy, so the policeman put the pris-
oner into the next best thing, the pa
troll wagon, and took him away.
