All the railway lines north of the Thames and the South-Eastern people at Cannon Street had been warned by midnight on Sunday , and trains were being filled . People were fighting savagely for standing-room in the carriages even at two o'clock . By three , people were being trampled and crushed even in Bishopsgate Street , a couple of hundred yards or more from Liverpool Street station ; revolvers were fired , people stabbed , and the policemen who had been sent to direct the traffic , exhausted and infuriated , were breaking the heads of the people they were called out to protect .
Все железнодорожные линии к северу от Темзы и жители юго-восточной части Кэннон-стрит были предупреждены к полуночи воскресенья, и поезда уже были заполнены. Люди ожесточенно дрались за место в вагонах даже в два часа. К трем часам людей топтали и давили даже на Бишопсгейт-стрит, в паре сотен ярдов или больше от станции Ливерпуль-стрит; стреляли из револьверов, людей наносили ножевые ранения, а полицейские, посланные регулировать движение, измученные и разъяренные, ломали головы людям, которых они призваны защищать.
