Q. Nor on Saturday?
A. No.
Q. When were the discharged men placed back on the police force?
A. They were not placed back on the police force until Monday. I think Monday a number of them reported for duty. A committee of councils, or councils held a session on Sunday morning; but there was so much confusion that nothing was done. The police force was not replaced until Monday or Tuesday; that is, the additional men.
By Mr. Means:
Q. Where is the mayor at the present time?
A. In Philadelphia, I believe. He has left a note that he would be home to-morrow.
Q. What was said about these men being paid?
A. There was some conversation about the railroad company—that it would have to pay these men, because the men were not on the pay-rolls of the city at the time.
Q. Did the mayor make that inquiry of Mr. Watt, as to who would pay?
