A. There was five or six tracks in that vicinity. They entirely cleared them on the side next to Liberty street, but there was at least six tracks there, and most of the tracks had trains laying on them. Smoke started over a little further amongst some of the other cars.
Q. Did the rioters make any resistance to the police?
A. Not any that I noticed. Some, according to their creed or nationality, held on longer to their goods.
Q. What nationality seemed to hold on the longest?
A. I must say that the Germans carried the heaviest loads. I noticed that, and commented on it coming up in a street car, that the Germans had the heaviest loads. I mean no disrespect to anybody.
By Mr. Larrabee:
Q. About what time was it that the police cleared the crowd off the wall?
A. It might have been half-past ten or eleven.
Q. On Sunday?
A. On Sunday, but I could not be positive; during the excitement there I was paying more attention to what I could see, and wondering what would turn up next.
