s4,4 FiRrNo ON TIE CROWD, ~ 2. y. - ~ ),
/ It was not the ipurpo ,of the officers, to
fire on tho crowd, but after the first recoil,
rhen Company again moved to. the door
and were received With another terrific stone
assault, the soldiers seemed TO lose control
OF themselves 30 far as 70 think only OF their
own defence The firing began at the door,
and the, officers claim that it was without
orders from them. Company ], with fixed
bayonets,; moved on Front street towards
Baltimore street, and were followed at an
interval, OF about thirty feet by Company
r, who were also received with showers Of
missiles. and responded with occasional
volleys OF musketry. A yolley. was fred
along Fayette street towards the bridge,
driving the crowd in that direction. These
two companies marched by Front street to
Baltimore street, and up Baltimore street
to Gay fighting their way at every
STEP. and doing sad execution with the
Minpie-balls from their rifles. By the time
they had passed the, corner OF Baltimore
and Harrison streets one man dead, with
ball through bis breast, and three Others
dangerously wot nded had been carried into
Laroque's drugstore at that point. The
two companies continued up Baltimore
street towards the Camden station. Com
pany 3, Captain Duffey, by order of Col
onel Peters, being. the. last to leaye the
armory. marched BY way OF Front street to
Cav street and up Gay to Baltimore street,
and thence towards the depot, This route
was taken, to avoid. the hostile crowd.
While moving out OF the armory Colonel
Peters directed the companies from the
head OF the stairs, going with the less ex-
perienced officers to the door, and once say
ing to q. youth in one OF the companies,
who seemed on the point Of giving way to
his terror, $50 forward and fight like q
man,, pushing him on. ~ @t"t.a| -
BLooDsHED ON BALTIMORE STREET. i: ,a
. A number of the detachments on Balti-
more street were driven from the ranks.
The scene from Front, street up to the do
Dot, Camden street, was one or terror. The
firing continued at quick intervals from the
armory o long distance up Baltimore street.
Several times it was as though platoons, WERE
firing. In the neighborhood OF Gay street
the crowd was thinned out very much
About fifty or more persons seemed tollpW-
Ing the soldiers, throwing stones at them,
and trying to get missiles on, the Belgian
pavement, in which they were unsuccessful.
AT Holiday street two young men and
newsboy were shot, and the, windows OF
Chenowith's saloon, No. 90 west Baltimore
street, were broken. The wounded At this
point we're carried into the saloon, and DR..
Wamble, surgeon Of the fire department,
was summoned to see them, In few min,
utes they were dead, while the floor Of the
saloon looked like butchers pen. 80 - :.
The streets were quickly deserted and
the detachment passed on by the Sun office,
still firing random shots over their shoui.
ders with apparent reckiessness. Some OF
the rioters lower down the street fired
pistols. The detachment left ten killed and
thirteen wounded on Baltimore street. :.
