REPORTED AS KILLED.-Yesterday afternoon
bloody riot broke out among the operatives on
the line of l. g. r r. at LasaIle Much dis.
satisfaction had been caused by the late decis-
ison OF the contractors 10 reduce the wages, and
threats had been freely uttered on the part Of
the Iaborers to take summary vengeance upon
all connected with the proposed reduc,ion.-
About two CLOCK an alteration arose between
Albert Story. one ofthe contractors, and par
ty of lrishmen, during which one of the latter
was shot down for some threatened act Of vic.
lence. Shortly after Mr.. Story's Office was at
tackled by large gang Of excited laborers,
sacked and pliaged. Mr.. Story was taken
from barn, whittier he had retrea,ed, and mur-
dered under circumstances of the most shock
ing barbarity-the infuriated wretches contin-
uing their blows upon the body with axes and
clubs until it was mangled beyond all recog-
