The policemen and detectives @tinned as they #houldered back their adversaries, But never the flicker of a smile showed ‘on the stern face of the Colonel. ‘All through his speech the clear strength of his voice was like the ring- ing resonance of @ cornet in the late night. It rang above any shuffling of feet, Once when a misguided Bull Moone started an epidemic of the drumming of prancing feet which had made @ torment of the earlier evening, there was painful note of protest in his tone which instantly quieted the nolge. ‘The news of Vice-President Sherman's Geath was taken to the platform by telegraph operators about half wey of forty-minute demonstration which ted Col.

Commissioner Waldo, with Inepector Schmittberger «nd Deputy Inspector McKay, were on vand with 100 policemen, and there was ‘tle jostling and no blocking of the treets.
