Business was at a standstill In many , sections for a few minutes and great throngs gathered about the wrecked buildings, but they were orderly crowds, bent on seeing what damage --' v-,t .no-no ii fiu cone. And there was plenty of damage to see, for scores of buildings had suf fered and more than one was still smoking from fires which the en gines were working upon. Throughout the bombed area there - " l j . wuuuittmDp collecting the injured and rushing them i mo iiuBpiiw. one hospital, which has been used largely for wounded soldiers, probably got more patients than any other, in this section. These noldiers did yeoman's work as the In jured arrived, not In caring for those hurt, but In giving comfort to rela tives Who mthf.raMl obniit tk. j: , o . uuumuK to learn the fate of those being carried luiin. In and out among the crowd of women, many of them with Infants In their arms, hobbled soldiers on crutches, stopping here and there to drop a word of sympathy and encour agement. While the damage done In the East End was widespread It is probable that the monetary loss will not be heavy, for many of the buildings wrecked were those of small business men. Klo Vlarts Sufferers. The raid had been over but a short time when the King motored through the district. His promptitude In thus manifesting sympathy with the suf ferers appeared to be deeply ap preciated, later the King visited the hospitals. The main result of todays raid, as Jn past cases, was the killing of civilians. Including many children. No military damage was done. It was not a case of accurate dropping of bombs when once the planes were over the city. In the east end, for in stance, a bomb could not have been dropped without doing damage. The course the raiders took can easily be traced by the damaged buildings, which In many cases are close together. In some places a whole block of buildings Is lacking every window and much other damage was done. One school in this district had a luoky escape. There are 1000 dudIIs in that school and 15 minutes after the little ones returned to the building from recess a bomb fell where hundreds of them had been gathered. The east end of London, which was the hardest hit by the raiders. Is com parable to New York's east side, for here live the poor of the city in a much-congested area. Much material damage was done this heavily bombed part of London and many dwellers in it were killed or wounded. The total number of these is not yet known, but one hospital alone had received 40 cases up to 2 o'clock and others were arriv ing steadily, numbers of the injured being sent here from other hospitals which lacked facilities to handle their cases. Three patients, including a lit tle boy, died at this institution and others were in a serious condition. Six Babies Wounded. Another hospital' for children was caring for six wounded babies and another had already died there. Nearly all of those injured persons were resi dents of the east side. A squad of at least five airplanes appeared over the east end district, al though it Is impossible to say whether one or more of them were not British, as British, aircraft were pursuing the Germans and all were flying at a great height.

In the number of defendants involved the suit began today is probably the most Involved ever filed in the District Court. The full force of the United States Marshal's office may be em ployed for several days in obtaining service of the subpenas. Each subpena, under the law, has to be signed three timeh by the County Clerk. This means the clerk will have to sign his name practically 600 times before the subpenas are ready. The complaint emphasizes a point that the company does not seek to prevent the Jitney operators from com petlng with its lines, providing they comply with the law. The company's motion for a tem porary order will come up for hearing in the Federal Court Monday afternoon. June 18, at 2 o clock. The complaint says that the Jitneys have been operating In Seattle since May 6 last without permit from the Secretary of State and without bonds, in defiance of the law; also that while numbers of the operators have been arrested by the county authorities for so doing, they at once resume operat ng after obtaining their release from custody on bond.
