San Francisco, Jan. 9.-Ugly charges
of police brutality were made today as
a sequel to yesterday afternoon s out
break of rioting by San Francisco's un-
employed
1t was when Assistant Prosecutor Nc
Conough asked for postponement un-
til January 16 Of the cases against the
six prisoners charged with melting the
riot, that the first of these accusations
came to the surface.
"YOur honor" said William Thorn,
one of the six men, "I want to be
tried Immediately. The city prison here
ism t a safe place for me. Last night
the police locked me in a solitary cell,
and after midnight four policemen came
in and beat me with clubs. If you will
exclude women, I will show you my
bruises and sears"
Police Judge Crist replied that he had
no jurisdiction over such matters, but
suggested that Thorn might complain
to Chief of Police White. He granted
a continuance until next Monday, dis
regarding McConough's representation
that Policeman w. G.. Brown, an i'm
portant witness, whs was hurt in the
riot would not be able to appear in
court so soon, ...,...
Bystanders Beaten.
Another charge was made by Morgan
Fremlin sugar foreman, from Ham
ilton City, who, though he did not even
see the riot, according to his own ac-
count, declared he was attacked by a
policeman in the vicinity of the place
where it occurred, and unquestionably
was so badly beaten that he was in a
serious condition at st. Luke's hospital
today
With both jaws broken and all his
front teeth knocked out, Fremlin had
trouble in telling his story, This
much, however, he made clear:
"I had left the Hotel Hale, where
was stopping and gone fora stroll with
a friend. At the corner Of Fifth anC
Mission streets we encountered this po
liceman, He probably mistook me fol
one Of the men who had taken part il
the riot. e"
The beating followed, Fremlin said
before he had time to explain that HI
had not even been a bystander at tn,
fight, and did not so much as know
that there was trouble anywhere nea
him.
Chief White promised an investiga
tion.

with completely in yesterdays battle.
The police said they would prevent
this program from being carried out if
they could. Leaders of the unemployed
army declared they would march in
spite Of the police.
The big fight yesterday followed an
attempt Of a young teamster to drive
through an unemployed procession from
Union Square to the Cooperative EN-
ployment Bureau. The men resented
this, and it was said, the teamster
struck at some of them with his whip.
Riot Becomes General.
He was dragged instantly from his
seat; L. Tisdale, one Of the unemployed
leaders tried to save him from violence,
fight tarted, Chief White, who hap
pened to be near by, called for reserves,
about 80 policemen responded, and the
riot became general,
The men fought with stones and brick
bats; the police welded their clubs
vigorously. The latter were finally
victorious, the crowd scattered and the
victims were picked up, and, in some
instances, taken to the hospital.
The worst injured were:
Policeman w. G., Brown, badly cut
on the head.
Morgan Fremlin, professedly mere
lbystander, jaw broken and several
teeth knocked out.
James A. Ryan, unemployed, serious
bruises.
Gust Kollman, unemployed, facial
cuts.
j. W. Finley unemployed, scalp
wounds.
1t was said, too, that the teamster
who started the fight was seriously
hurt but while the conflict was still

and drove away.
