onsfrations.


ROCHESTER, Jan. 8.
From o'clock this morning until II
o'clock the city was comparatively quiet.
-Four companies of the fifty-fourth regi-
ment are guarding the jail and the ap-
proaches. Cannon loaded are stationed
so as to command the bridges. At II
o'clock this forenoon quite crowd had
assembled around the military, and there
is good deal of hooting, but no overt
act has been committed this forenoon.
At III o'clock some one placed on ca
nal boat in the slip in Court street a flag
on which were the words, "Avenge your
brothers" Brig. Gen. Clarke tore it
| down, and the crowd rushed for him,
and for short time he was in peril, but
he was released and firearms handed
him by friends. The sheriff has ordered
oul the remaining six companies of the
fifty-fourth regiment, and they are now
assembling at the arsenal. 1t is feared
that there will be more trouble this af-
ternoon and evening. The authorities
are determined to defend the Jail, but
they wish the negro Howard well out of
it. Fuller particulars of the shooting
last evening show that the soldiers were
pelted by the mob with bricks and stones,
and several of them were injured. The
order was given to charge, and some of
the men fired instead.
LATEK, BPM
There is considerable of crowd
around the jail, but the heavy rain seems
to check the excitement. No violence
has been committed since noon. Prepa-
rations are being made to meet any emer-
gency this evening. The police are
massed at head quarters, and ready to
move to any point The negro Howard
has been indicted
P. M.-The police in a body just
made charge on the mob in the vicini-
ty of the jail, and are driving them in
every direction. The greatest crowds
are now in Buffalo street, at the outer
section of State street. Veteran military
companies of the old 18th, 108th and
140tn volunteers, have been sworn in as
special police, and are reporting at po-
lice headquarters, which place they will
guard and the prisoners that may be cap
tured. Several of the soldiers who
stepped out of the lines this afternoon
were knocked down by ruffians. 1t was
thought that Howard would be taken
into court this afternoon, but the judges
of oyer and terminer will not consent
until it is determined whether Towards
victim will recover or not.
Judge E. Darwin Smith and county
Judge Fuller have directed the sheriff
not to take Howard from the jail at
present, and to protect the public prop
erty and preserve the public peace at all
hazards. The howitzers have been re-
moved to positions where they will COM
mand Exchange street and the approach
from the east side of the river more eff
fectually.
