- Battle_of_Depot_Street abstract "The Battle of Depot Street was a municipal dispute and riot that took place in Knoxville, Tennessee, United States, on March 1, 1897. The incident began with a disagreement between city officials and Knox County officials over whether or not the Citizens Railway Company, led by William Gibbs McAdoo, had the authority to build streetcar tracks along Depot Street, sparking a standoff between city police and county sheriff's deputies. During the struggle, both McAdoo and his rival, C.C. Howell, along with the mayor, chief of police, fire chief, and over 200 workers, were arrested by one side or the other. One person was killed and several injured in accompanying mob violence.The incident was the culmination of a two-year struggle between McAdoo and Howell for control of Knoxville's streetcar system. McAdoo had gained control of the bulk of the system in the early 1890s, and successfully converted the system to electric power. This conversion proved costly, however, and his company was forced into bankruptcy. A syndicate led by Howell purchased most of the company's assets, but McAdoo maintained control of several routes, and the two filed suits and countersuits as they attempted to outposition one another. After this incident, McAdoo left Knoxville, and Howell consolidated the city's streetcar lines.".
