Il WIS q hoottng, bowling mob which departed
yesterday morning from tho depot corner Of
Clinton and Carroll streets, via tho Chirago &
Vinccnncs Iailroad, for Indianapolis They
called tho mob the Chicago Veteran Reform
Association, and 4 worse snfanomer never WAS
given to any crowd. /. is true there were
few respeetahlcs in tho party. They headed
the proccssiou, aud included Ncyans' Band,
Col. Baldwin, Gcns. LIeb, Cameron, and per-
haps 1Do others. But most OF tho 100 or moro
had never stuelt powder, except On the Fourth
Of July, and large numbers Of them were known
durlug the War II the NEST ardent
Ctpperhcads. Wien this respectable body
IL spoken of, the remainder Of the crowd may be-
brought Into notice. OF all the ofTscourings Of
the s!ums Of Chicago, the worst departed for
indianapolis.
There were fifteen coaches used for the occa-
sion and one fat-car, upoa which Lippincott's
brass stx-pound field piece was PLACED on wheels
alld spiked fnst- This formidable monster was
under the control Of G. Il. Crosanan and u gun

Tho procession was to have left the Palmer
! House at $3.50 O'Clock, but tho organization Of
such a mob Into anything like decent order took
| time. Tho North Side Bent delegation 60 no

the respectablcs; IS veterans; SEQ veterans who
nrrcr stllclted powder; delegation Of 100 frou,

roughs that city had to contribute; % Tildenltes

en 9 hs 'Sav s1nx sna to 10
frullt Of the Ltud Works IN Clinton street.
The mob which Ind followed the procession was
nothing III comparison to that which occupied
| the platform. 1t was tI.c most Hpd-fossakcn
ralb!c that was eyer gathered together. Mosley
would not describe t. :. It was . tnasB!ng of
