rhe ITarbor Creek Riot.


BvTrsto, Dee. as--Ths riot at Harhor
Creek yesterday ives more serious than at
first reported, and caused great excitement
here.
L, appears that the Railroad officers who
were at Hsrbor Creek to make repairs to
tho road were attacked by an armed mob Of
6 TO 100. Coffin, q conductor on the Buffa-
10 and State Line Road, drew hrevolyer
and shot one OF the ringieaders, wounding
him badly. The Railroad men then at
tempted to retreat, but were beset by the
mob anil many Of them shqckingly beaten,
and two or three nearly killed. The Rail
road men finally reached the cars, pursued
by the mob. who were determined TO get Mr..
C. G Dennis, the Superintendent they
swore they would hang on the first telegraph
pole. They rushed upon the cars. and seine
had already got hold, when the Engineer
rushed forward and started the Locomotive.
The mob started off and the train reached
the New York Line safely. A passenger
on one Of the trains was knocked down yes
terday in Erie, and brutality maltreated.-
The Company now refuse to run beyond
the State Line. The excitement here is in
tense, and il is feared that unless immediate
steps are taken by the General Government
for the protection Of the public, there will
be a movement among the people OF this part
Of New York that will detail disasters on the
whole country.
