night, but the rioters remained under
cover.
The arrangements last night were
about the same as on Wednesday and
Thursday nights. Not over one hun
dred infantry were on duty, however,
the cavalry force and the police on their
beats keeping a sharp lookout over the
city. The fire alarm boxes were guarded
by men again last night. By some mis-.
understanding Box 95, corner Of Mary
and Logan streets, was not watched
all Thursday night, and consequently it
was tampered with by some scoundrel,
who mutilated the keyhole so as to pre-.
vent key fitting into 1T. Another man
| caught sleeping at his post was dis.
| charged from further duty yesterday.
The following officers command the new
company OF cavalry: Captain, Eli IL.
Murray; First Lieutenanf, j. s. Grey;
Second Lieutenant, s. Calhoun Smith; /;
Third Lieutenant, L. I'll. Waterbury.
