while holding his wounded arm extended
before him, remained until relief came,
tiNedly glaring in silence Mt the Orange
men. A lad crouched against a cart wheel,
just beyond the corner of oath street, APP
peared to have received some hurt. The
women appeared mt the windows above,
making signs of anguish and bewilder-
ment, looking alternately down mt the
bodies and then at the troops and police
men. Presently one and then another
stole out and touched the hands to see if
they were still alive, but soon fastened
within.
One young Irishman, however, remain
ed and walked to and fro, wringing his
hands and making piteous and incoherent
cries of grief. From time to time he
clCnched his fist and seemed to be making
desperate resolves of vengeance and then
he would stop to look at one and another
of the bodies. The surgeons of the regi-
ments came with commendable prompti-
tude to attend to the wounded. AT last
when the mob had been dJiUeR far back on
the side streets, the worx.of removing the
dead and wounded began, AS the column
remained at halt, the riot was suppressed
10y this single volley. The most drunken
and desperate of the mob could not be in
duced to resume the fight. General Narian
indignant at the action of the Eighty
fourth Regiment, in firing without orders,
OTueTeu III 10 Ile rear anu brought up One-
halt of the Ninth to take its place at the
left of the Orangemen. The procession
then moved on. The passions of the mob
appeored to have greatly subsidized. The
sidewalks were lined with people. The
windows of many houses were crowded
and at many points working men in large
numbers suspended their labors to witness
the procession, but they were all silent.
It is doubtful if any loss of the day will
compare with that of Mr.. Lattimer, men,
Der of stationery firm on Nassau street,
near Liberty. He was walking along
Eighth avenue, near Twenty-eighth street,
when the first volley was fired. Several
balls entered his body. One passed through
his breast, another shattered his jaw to
splinters, and two took effect in his neck.
He at once fell on the pavement, and al
though still living at Belleview Hospital
last night, no hopes are entertained of his
recovery.
A sad sight was witnessed at the Morgue.
An aged lady, dressed in deep mourning,
sat by a rude pine coffin, which was paint
ed sickly red color, in cruel mockery of
rosewood. 1t contained the body of her
eldest son. He was q vender of kindling
wood, and was going his usual round when
killed, ms he was passing cross street.

The Trihnne,s Statement.

"When the Orangemen were opposite
Twenty-fourth street, the column halted
for moment. Immediately after the halt
a shot was fired from the upper story of
brick building at the northeast corner.
simultaneously shots were fired at the
Sixth Regiment from near Twenty-fifth
street, on the same side of the street. The
Eighty-fourth Regiment received the first
shot, and in the confusion of the moment
many men aimed at the windows, as if eX-
pecting orders to fire. In an instant one
gun was discharged, and then followed an
Irregular volley along the line of the Sixth,
Ninth and Eighty-fourth Regiments, a
few men loading and firing the second
time. So sudden was the occurrence that
the officers were taken by surprise, but as
soon as possible they rushed among their
men to stop the firing. The firing Of the
Eighth Regiment was chiefly directed at
the upper part of the house, whence the
attack had come, but the sidewalk was
swept also. AS soon as the smoke cleared
away, nine bodies, one of them woman.
were seen lying extended and still upon
the pavement in front of the house. The
right wing of the regiment being advanced
about 900 yards beyond Twenty-fourth
street, the men in that part of the line
fired across the sidewalk at the southeast
corner of that street and avenue. Here
were group of about twenty policemen
and a few citizens. All these discovering
that the troops were aiming low, threw
Themselves by common impulse PROSTATE
upon their bellies and scrambled away.
At the first fire, however, a pOrtly, we'll
developed man, who was afterwards ascer
tanned to be II. G. Il. Lattimer, was in
stantly killed, and after him policeman
John O'Conner, fell dangerously wound
ed.
The firing over, there was a pause o.
several minutes, in which further attack
of the Hibernians was awaited, while
troops were brought to an attention. AT
ter reloading their guns, no more regard
was paid to the wounded and dying fol
several minutes. The terrified citizens
were afraid TO venture out of their houses
and none Of those escorting the Orange
men could advance beyond tho lines Il
give relief, on account of the imminen
danger that other shots would be fired by
the treacberous and Infatuated mob, and
that the militia would renew their wilC
volleys. The situation at the crossing o
oath street, where the writer stood, WA
terrible. Before the eyes of all, there lay
eleven PROSTATE bodies. Two or three were
piled together as they had fallen. A deaC

The I1ibernians Swear Vengeance.
Just before the Orange procession formed,
THREE HUNDRED HIBERNIANs,
all armed, with loud cheers took possession
of Twenty-ninth street, Immediately OPP
posite the police, who stood quietly facing
for orders. When the orders came the
street was cleared in two minutes. One
detachment marched quickly down Iwen-
ty-ninth street towards the Seventh ave-
nue., the two Others, one up and one down
Eighth avenue, and the H'bernians disap-
peared No shots acre fred, bit here and
there the dull crack of q locust club Sho,ced

ARMS SEIZED.
The police seized 200 stand of arms at the
rooms of Fenian Hall, at Nineteenth and
Twenty-frst avenue, and brought them
to police headquarters. The mob did not
wait to learn the business of the police, but
fled Mt their approach. The police, backed
by the Eighty-fourth Regiment, made
RAID on HIBERNIAN HALL.
The mob ran like sheep. A large number
were arrested and locked up, reyolvers and
pistols being found upon their persons.
The arms were removed by the Eighty
fourth and taken to the central office.
The police, to the number of 400 arrived
at half past ten, under the lead of Inspec-
tors Jamison and Walking, and were
placed, one squad on Thirtieth street and
Eighth avenue; another on Twenty
eighth street, and q small squad on Twen-
ty-niDth street, about half way down the
block on both sides of the avenue to pre-
vent any not members of the Orange Fra
ternity from entering the lines. Several
persons representing themselves as Orange
men were allowed to pass through, but be-
ing rather suspieious-looking, were search
ed by the police, and on about twenty were
found revolvers and pistols of all kinds,
with clubs and old rusty swords. From
one man was taken seveD-shooter loaded,

the names of 100 volunteers who had got
ready to do duty. Every few minutes ar

An EnOch Arden Case in Real Life.

In 1862, young woman named Mrs.
Sarah Young married Joseph M Abbott,
an actor playing in Pittsburg. Some
time after the marriage, the husband
went to the war, and after the lapse OF
year she failed to receive letters. She
made inquiry concerning him, but got
no information, and at length heard he
supposed death, she marrid Thomas l..
Williams, and on the 18th, Abbott, the
dead actor turned up from the dim un.
certain When he heard his wife had
married he would not see her, and ig-
nored her acquaintance, and Williams,
learning that she had been before mar
ried, refused to live longer with her.
Consequently she brings suit against
the latter to support three children
