President Grlswold made an Ineffectual nttempi ytjlcrcUv to operate the Anacostia cor low H-im iiuii-iuuoa men. Early lu u,e clay It became known to the employes that President Urlsivold had put new drivers on the cars and sent them out on tne run. n iook liut a snort whde then ror them to decide what to do. .H2 'cIock a number of them gathered streets, mnf when car No. 20 came up from Anacostia tiiey sioppcsi the li(ires and threw the car across the track. This was only the first step, for as soon as the other cars arrived at that point thev '.H. tura lvt're "vnilleil. In less than huir an hour niter tnaurtit. car wus inrowiioir, 'ill the cars on tho road lay acrosi the track within a very short distance of each other. All this time It e crowd was Increasing and cery one appeared to lie in swupatnr ivith the ox-employes, for Just as soon as one of them put their hands on a car to derail it. tne bystanders would rush up. lake hold and off the car would go In a twinkling amid loud cnecrs. Tne cheering, however, was eoon slopped by the police officers tvlio l.atl l,oeii telephoned ror by Mr. Grlswold. The excitement by this time was Intense, tlie new drivers stood on their cars uumhrouniicd. not knowlnir what to do or what would be done next. DERAILED THEM AGAIN. About this .time Supt. N ewton ap peared on the scene. He immediately had the horses mancii on tne two turn rarlhrat east and ordered them luck to the siflbles. They started off on a run, but not before a nuiutKT or the eiunloies and tuelr sym Iiatluzrrs liad Jumped aboard, 'the po lice lutrot with the rtsencrrom tho Sixth precinct followed tit tne wake at a rapid gait, but they had no terrors ror tlie crowd, ror when tl e cars arrived at tlie corner of Eighth und O streets they were ucaiii taken tn charge by the vx-.-iiiplovea unit thrown across Jiie track. If possible, the excitement was now evcil mule lutein, t.iall ai tne time or Ihe riret outbreak on Missouri nvenue. All along the .road during the run from Third street northwest lo Eighth street southeast the crowds uloitr the ktreeta shouted 'scab, scab: throw that scab driver off tliat car." It was not. however, until cor No. -5 arrived with a colored drl"er in front that the crowd gave expression to its peut-an feelimj. Nothing -was. of course, said tt the colored drttcr. but the crowd's criticism of the management ot the rodd for bringing about such a state of affairs was anything but pleasant fur the otliciais to hear. From this point the cars were sent on again with two police officers on each to keep tlie people from crowding ou. Some how or other tills plan was not a success. I for by the time the cars arrived at the cor I ner or ;s aiiu L.tAtuui streets luey were I nf.iln thrown from the track aud the horses unharnessed from the two lu the lead. nOVS SMAbIIED THE WINDOWS. It was or this point that the window Ussi i it one of tne t ars were broken. There lielcg no horses to haul It. it was lett behind, at the mercy of the excited crowd. No ono knows who broke tho wioilows. It Is believed, however, that It was chine by boys, while and colored, who remained behind after ull the other curs were sent ncrossthe bridge. It Is known that the break ing of the glass was done after all Ihe ex cmploves hod gone over to Anacostia. Shortly after the first ear was sent to Anacostia from N street crossing Super intendent Newton was asked what "Would be tne resJltot yesterday's work. He said ha did not know, b-ithedid know that he would not try to run out any mere cars that day. That the drlver-contlactors have the Rvmnnthv of the imblie can not for a mo ment bo doubted. This was plainly ex pressed oy a party ot males wno were on heir waysto Anacnstla, aboard the second car that was demited on Missouri avenue. ANACOSTIA WITH THE MEN.
