Ward Greeley torchlight procession and
some colored people, in which from fifty
to seventy-fve shots were fired. Several
! persons were wounded, but none so far
as heard from Were killed. The accounts
OF eyewltnesses are very conflicting, and
1t IS almost impossible to ascertain re-
liable particulars. The Greeley process
sion was from ward in which the popu-

Ulcers of the district, who feared riot.

away by beating him, when he drew
pistol and fired at them. Others VIII,
were not near, but who saw the begin
ming, say four shots were fired first b,
the procession, and that the colored mel
fired back. The preponderance of tn,
testimony goes to show that the riot wa
commenced by one very large coloret
man who was standing at the corner O
Fifth street and Broadway, on the side
walk. The confusion then became fear
full. The men in the procession frs
started to run, and then rallied. Thu
colored men, such as had pistols, seemed
to be using them and retiring north Oh
Broadway. The unarmed colored mel
ran to their armory and got about thirt,
muskets and rushed back to reinforce
their friends. They succeeded in driv
ing back and dispensing the members o
the procession. They then again rushed
to their armory, where about 200 of then
are under arms. They have all the ap
proaches to the armory guarded. On

every man to go to the polls and vote, i
at the risk of their lives. This speecl

When the riot was in progress the rio
alarm was turned on and the whole DO
lice force was called out.
