Had Their Own Sedan.

During the progress of the Krieger verein's Sedan Day celebration at Riverside park last night, a large crowd of men assaulted Mitchell and Feltman, two young men who were standing listening to the speeches, and a general fight ensued, in which all hands engaged and the bar men had to join to keep the peace. In the melee Officer Mullins arrested the two young men, but had to protect them and choke off their pursuers, who attacked them after they were under arrest. Only one of the assailants was arrested. Other arrests will likely follow this week. The Recorder dismissed the two young men, but fined A. Kruger $5.
