ROW IN THE TENTH WARD.
Three Negroes Dangerously Shot.

The feeling which exists amongst the Re-
publican faithful in the Tenth Ward attached
to the Packard party. and those who stake
their fortunes upon Miller as their champion,
is not certainly one of harmony, and threats
have more than once been limited at of a
bloody collision This last night proved to
be the case.
While the Packard gang were in session last
night in their wigwam, corner of First and
Liberty streets, a large body Of men moved in
procession up the street and forced al entrance
in the bui ding. Thereupon, pistols were
drawn by the opposing forces and lead was
thrown promiscuously about t., the extent of
about forty shots. Afer time the police
were on hand, and succeeded in capturing
some three of the shootists.
Lying upon the floor were three men, who
by their Republican groans indicated that
thev had fallen, wounded in the cause of OPP
preston and rascality.
Charles Thomas had received a dangerous
wound in the left shoulder Henry Stroder
one in the right shoulder and Preston Armand
one in the lett leg. The former was attended
by DR.. Smith. and the two latter by Dr. Wat
kins. So endeth the first chapter.

A CORY SIGHT.
Razors ut Work.
Two Men Try to Butcher One Another.

Yesterday evening about o'clock, a desper-
ate affray took place on the corner of Gravier
and Liberty streets, between tso negroes,
named John Smith and Edward Lea, in which
both were dangerously, if not MORALLY
wounded
1t appears that Edward Lea has been paying
attention to negro woman with whom John
Smith has been living, and the men meeting
at the corner of the above mentioned streets.
proceeded to carve each other in the most ap-
proved manner. The weapons used by both
were razors, the favorite weapon Of the faith
full in settling their little differences.
Lea fell on the spot. and John Smith ran
around to the corner of Howard and Perdido
before falling. They were both conveyed to
the Charity Hospital, where reporter of the
BULLETIN visited them The condition of the
men was
to contemplate. Lea was in cot in ward l,
covered with sheet and blanket, with a
bandage around his face. which was saturated
with blood. He had fearful cash across the
forehead, extending down and across the left
cheek and under to the throat four deep cuts
over the right breast, and at least three cuts
on the sto mach, which did not amount to
much, however; his left had was almost
severed at the wrist: the veins and arteries
When our reporter saw him he was quiet, but
he was pronounced with just a chance for life.
Smith was in ward one and a half,
tossing on couch covered with blood. He
was cut across the forehead, Glenn to the
bone, the cut extending down to and running
he right eve, and almost forcing it fron its
socket. His right arm, over the muscles just
below the shoulder, was horribly slashed, and
the wound was considered extremely dan
gerous.
The worst one he received. however, was in
the ok, under the right shoulder blade,
which penetrated to the lungs. He was pro-
nounced as good as dead
Both men are about twenty-four years of
age.
The woman Molly Balm, who was the imme-
d ate cause of the difficulty, was arrested and
locked up in the First, charged with being
accessory to the stabbing.
