all night. The police were driven TO their bar.
racks They received reinforcements and
charged on the crowd desperately. They were
driven into their barracks again, however. The
sally was repeated several times, but with the
same result. A bar of iron thrown from a pub
lie house at the police led to the Stormng of the
house and capturing of the inmates. An at
tempt was made to rescue them by the mob, and

police.
There is considerable apprehension to-day
that the riot will be renewed. Preparations are
already taken against the barracks being car
riCd by assault, and instructions have been is
sued to the police TO use their rcvovers without
mercy. The feeling yesterday in that part of
the city lying between Capel street and South
field and between Thomas street and Liberty
was most intense, and to all appearance cannot
possibly be restrained without breaking out into
excuses. In Barrack street, which runs through
about the poorest part of the town very san
culinary fighting took place between the popu-
lace and the police. The women rushed ont of
their houses on either side of the street and
handed the men weapons of all kinds, pokers
tOngs, fire shovcs, broken bed posts, and every
thing that could do more hurt than common
stick. The police fought well and so did the
crowd. Both were worked up to an intense
pitch of hatred against each other on account

An investigation will Immediately take place
into the provOcatiOn received by the police for
precipitating the liot. The soldiers are all un-

awful massacre
