Q. Those men were all participating in the riot as leaders when you first went out there?
A. I do not know that of my own knowledge, but I, of course, inferred it from the fact of the information made against them.
Q. Did you know any of the ten or twelve men that stood around, trying to prevent the arrest of McCall?
A. None of them tried to prevent the arrest of McCall. I knew some of them by face and a few by name.
Q. Were any of those men's names included in those warrants?
A. I believe they were, but I did not have those warrants at the time.
Q. You did not get them until that evening or the next morning?
A. I think it was the next morning.
Q. Then you did not go up to arrest them when you got the warrants?
A. Not immediately. It was considered a matter of judgment at the office by the mayor, and, of course, I was under his instructions.
