Opposite them, on the other side of the street, between a coal wharf and a petroleum warehouse, a large platform had been erected in the open air, towards which the current of the crowd seemed to be directed.
Devant eux, de l'autre côté de la rue, entre le wharf d'un marchand de charbon et le magasin d'un négociant en pétrole, se développait un large bureau en plein vent, vers lequel les divers courants de la foule semblaient converger.
