A. Not during that day. They did attempt to during that night and also during Sunday night.
Q. What attempts were made on Sunday night?
A. The American house, I think, or some place near it, was gutted, but by that time we had a pretty good force, and we went there and drove them away and arrested some of them.
Q. Who had command there?
A. Lieutenant Coates.
Q. He had no trouble in beating the crowd away?
A. He had some trouble, but he did it.
Q. How many men had he?
A. I went there afterwards, and we had, I suppose, some forty men there.
Q. After the railroad property was destroyed—by that time you had a pretty good police force?
