The men at once took them. disperse up a position around several piles of tiles before a new theatre building and began hurling tiles at the police. The policemen were at once reinforced by a mounted detachment, which charged the crowd with drawn sabres. . At the height of the encounter there was heard a detonation, which undoubtedly was some sort of a firecracker set off by a boy. The police, however, thought that a revolver had been fired, and they acted in the most energetic manner. The police on foot drove the mamfestants, number-I- n 2,000, mostly young men and boys, into the mounted squad, and the latter made most vigorous use of their weapons. Many of the men were arrested and the remainder driven and scattered. . CHINESE CREW MUTINIED. But Four American Miners Aboard Steamsr Handle the Malcontent. Victoria, B. C.
