asked Mr. O' Brlen te go out and have a walk,
though a crowd et about 200 rowdies had
gathered around tbs hotel hlaaing, hooting
and groaning. Mr. O'Brien, however, per

his mends the mob groaned and blssed Inte
Mr. O'Brien's fsce auch cries ss "Awsy

"Oed save the queen." A riot seemed Im

or " Oed save tbe Queeu" and groans for the

and his Iriends were stoned by tbe mob, no

Oplulens el Canadian Journals
Terente, May 19. Tbe morning papeie
generally condemn last nlght'a outrage upon
Editor O'Brien. The Glebe, under tbe head,
lng "Burning Outrage," says : "The brutal,
unprovoked assault upon O'Brien yesterday
may produce very serious results. Intoler

when acbeer is answered by bludgeons and

te the ordinary state of affairs for lenient
treatment et men resenting Jceis at the

for generally preventing further demonstra

Terente, May 10 Mr. J. A. Mulligan,
prealdeut et tbe local branch of the National
League, furnished the following version of
laat night's disturbance this morning : About
8 o'clock last evening I was at tbe Rossin
beuse with O' Hi leu wben he expressed a de
sire for a little Iresh air. I suggested tbere
was danger In going out but O' Brien laughed
and said be would go. Accordingly O'Brien,
Secretary Cabill and tnyaeir left tbe hotel by
tbe Yerk street deer and walked tewarda
King street There was a Urge crowd out
aide, some of whom cheered and ethers
hooted. O'Brien said tebls friends : " New,
bejs, I'm going te take a little walk and I
want you te remain here." In compliance
with tbl request O'Brien' ympathlzera
did ae and we went up Yerk atreet and
turned east along King atreet We were
followed by a large crowd and jostled
and Jeered st, beeldea balng greeted with
"Hang blm," "Drewn blm," "Kill him,"
Interspersed with singing of Ged Bava tha
Queen." At the oerner of Bay and King
atreeta It occurred te me that tba beat thing
te de wa te get back te the hotel. Tba po
lice were very remiss Is tbelr duty and did
netblng te protect us from tbe mob. In Bay
street the crowd began te use stones and rot ret
ten eggs which fell like ball and struck the
men. The cty here was " Te the bay with
blm," and I came te tbe conclusion that
things were getting serious.
Tha mob grew larger and missiles flew
thick and fast. A stone struck Mr. Cabill en
tba back of tba head, Injuring him badly.
O'Brien, Cabill and myself wars all bit re
peatedly. One stone struck me ea tba elbow,
hurting It severely. On tbe oerner of Bay aad
