Early 1900s movie setting. Trying to find the movie.

Trying to find the name of the movie where it starts a black pregnant service woman in the early 1900s is visited by your boyfriend who wants to do right his vehicle is blocked by white volunteer firefighters who want him to pay a toll and they end up damaging in his car. He retaliates by blowing up fire houses and the police are after him the household where the pregnant woman works tries to assist. It takes place I believe in New York Mickey Rooney could’ve been a commissioner for a very short part
