The trick of scaring the crew from a train, cutting the engine loose and run ning it up the track, opening the throt- -le and letting it run full, tilt back upon the standing train was a hew one and of a character likely to be imitated. The stoning of) incoming trains was a com mon passtime with the mobs and sever al pensons were more or less injured by llying missiles. One engineer on a Rock Island train was so badly injured that it waa at first reported that be waa dead. Hie assaults of the mobs, however, wag met with passive nwistance which characterised the course pursued yester day. On two occasions at least their at tempts were met with accurately alp lead.
