Question

The conductor came to the door."What's
your
number?" said one
passenger, taking out a pocketbook with a gesture of terrible things.
"There's my number," said the conductor imperturbably.
“Give us our fares back-you've engaged to carry us—you can't
leave us here all night."
"No fares back," said the conductor.
Two or three passengers got out and disappeared into the night.
The conductor took another turn on the pavement, then went and
had a talk with the driver.
Another bus, the last on the road, sailed by indifferent to the shouts
of the passengers to stop. “They stick by each other—the villains,"
was the comment.
Someone pulled the bell violently. That brought the driver round
to the door."Who's conductor of this bus?" he sneered, and paused
for a reply. None coming from the passengers, he returned to his
seat and resumed drumming a rhythm on the steering wheel.
There was no hope in that quarter. A policeman strolled up
and
looked in at the door. An avalanche of indignant protests and
appeals burst on him.
