to sea yesterday. The value of the
Pensacola part Of her cargo was over
$4,000, and a lot was loaded at New
Orleans. The entire LOT was loaded
1T the east side of Tarrago wharf.
1t is unusual for steamers of this,
the Austro Americana, line, to fill out
with lumber and timber here. and the
dispatch given the Clara is said to
have created a favorable impression
with Capt. Prigl, the weil-known
skipper aboard this vessel, and 1t is
likely that others Of this company will
shortly call for pitch pine cargo.
The cargo on the Clara consisted Of
the following:
For Barcelona, with 100000 super
fetal feet lumber; for Trieste with
$4,000 superficial feet Of timber and
800 bales of cotton; for Malaga, wfch
with $4,000 s # lumber; for Gambia,
with $4,000 TT lumber. The entire
lot amounts to $4,000 superficial feet.

"A policeman stopped me and said
that if l did not stop walking would
have to go along with him. I told the
policeman did not see any reason
why I should stop walking and he
promptly placed me and my asso-
ciates. under arrest
When Mrs. Silverrnan left the office
she also was arrested. In addition to
an American flag she carried large
white flag with a black border and a
red heart In the center. She said the
flag meant that "the heart of the Uni
ter States was against the working
man."
All the prisoners were charged with
disorderly conduct. and IN a patrol
wagon were taken to the Tombs police
court. Mrs. Lietner said she was an
artist and that her home was in Geor-
Ha.
While her husband was still locked
up, Mrs. Sin Clair returned to the
scene of the arrests and began pacing
slowly back and forth in front of the
big building. She wore a strip of
crepe on her coat. Half a dozen men
sympathizers, all wearing crepe walk
ed with or near her. Perhaps 500 per-
sons paused to witness the strange
sight, but for the time being the police
made no arrests.
Mr.. Rockefeller remained secluded
in his private office on the 14th floor
of the building.
