ROWDIES
ON A CAR
A Kaimuki Trolley In
vaded by
Roughs.
Eight or ten natives made a disturb
ance on the 6:15 Waialae car yesterday
-evening because Conductor Schmidt in
sisted on one of the number paying his
fare or getting off. The fellow refused
to pay because he was "only going a
short distance."
After a native from the middle of the
car went to the rear and paid the man's
fare, the ganar proceeded from tongue
abuse to hustle the conductor. Schmidt
rang to stop and Motorman Whitehead
did so and aided him in sending most of
the crowd to their seats.
Four or five of the natives after get
ting off at Moiliili village threw a tor-
Tent of foul laneuase at the conductor
and when the car had got under way
again the remaining disturbers renewed Moiliili; Saturday, Aala Park
their abusive language and as the con
ductor tried to send them inside to the
seats they assaulted him. Two or three
of them were clutching his throat at
once. An Advertiser reporter on the
car called on them to desist and warned
them of the conseouences, but it was not
until the motorman came back, swivel in
hand, that thev subsided.
Again the car proceeded and Con
ductor Schmidt ordered the leader, who
stood menacingly in front of him, to go
inside and sit down or leave the car. The
man advanced threateningly when
Schmidt's right fist in his face repelled
him. Motorman Whitehead again re
turned and the rowdy was put off.
