the proceedings OF the evening equal pre-
vocation TO the actual reading ol the art
Gle, and acted accordingly.
In accordance with notices posted o.
the streets, Workingmen assembled Il
immense numbers at the Sand Lots, an
by 2 o'clock, Notwithstanding the crowd
gathered on the streets down town, owe
ten thousand excited men were gatheret
around the ruderostrum, ,shoutingandc ours
ing, and calling for the blood Of KalloCh'
assassin.
Clitus Barbour took the stand and ad
dressed the meeting, earnestly urging th,
Workinglnen TO await the arrival Of Kear
ney before taking further steps. Thl
crowd, however, were eager for action
and listened with bad grace 10 all argl
ments tending to delay their vengeance
Barbour continued, dwelling upon tht
TACT that they were un0rganized and In nc
condition to cope with the police anC
military. In reply, the crowd demanded
to be led at once down town 10 hang De
Young and demolish the Chronicle office.
Barbour informed them that the presi
dents Of the Ward clubs were in session
and had decided 10 wait the arrival o.
kearney, but that II RalloCh died they
were fully determined to hung DeYounl
without delay. Tremendous cheers greet
ed this announcement. gra
Wright, Vice President OF the party
addressed the crowd in the same strain.
a dispatch from Kearney was read
stating thathe would be down from Vallejo
City by the P. NJ. boat, asking that the
committee be sent 10 Vallejo TO give him O
full statement OF the conditions OF affairs
on the way down, and that any action be
delayed till his arrival.
Flynn. Secretary Of the party, read a
message from Kalloch, counseling the
meeting to be moderate, and wait for
Kearneys arrival. Sf414s
William Wellock and Gross, Of Nevada,
candidate Of the party for Attorney Gen.
eral, who happened to be in town, also
counseled moderate measures.
Stephen Maybell, who has been promi-
nent at the Sand Lots heretofore, attempt-
ed TO excite the too ready crowd to deeds
of violence, but was suppressed by those
at the stand, although the crowd was with
Maybell, and clamored wildly that he
should be heard.
Other people sought to quiet the crowd,
assuring them that in. case Kalloch's
wounds proved fatal summary vengeance
would be taken.
AT $3.50 =. NJ, Kalloch is in much i'm
proved condition. A slight examination
has been made, and the phyaicians e&:
pressed the opinion that there is good
ground for expecting his recovery.
Tho tragedy has almost paralyzed bust;
ness during the day. Telegrams were pour;
ing in from all over the State, inquirfng rs
to the condition Of affairs, and almost equal
interest is reported from Nevada.
The Workingnen are hanging aboutthe
sand lots, waiting for Kearney's arrival,
which is anticipated with the greatest in.
forest, as almost everything will depend
upon the, course he concludes TO adopt.
The evening journals counsel above all
things moderation on the parts Of
the Workingmen for the credit OF
the city. and also for their own sake, on ac-
count Of the bearing Of their action on the
result Of the present campaign.
The Bulletin says in effect that the
was q deliberate assassination;
and reminds its readers that twenty-three
years ago the people OF this city hanged
q man who killed an editor-who dared to
express his convictions, but that noNpthe
law OF society seems to be that an editor
may say whathe pleases, but II the assault
cd party talks, his life isto be forfeited, but
warns Workingmen that the course they
pursue will be the best evidence OF their
ability to administer the affairs OF. the
city, and that TO resort to violence would
be fatal mistake.
The feeling Of the community is almost
entirely with Kalloch. De Young's action
is universally branded rs cold.blooded
assassination, and the belief is general
that II the Workingmen, in the event of
KalloCh's death, demand the surrender OF
De Young for lynch Justice, outside OF the
lawfully constituted authorities not hand
would be raised to prevent the consumma-
tion Of their desires.
tits evident from expressions heard on
every side that whatever the result OF Kali
loch's wound, the affair will prove death
blow to the cause Of the Honorable Bilks
in this city. II Kalloch recoyers he lis
likely 10 receive vote much greater than
would otherwise have been given him. II
he dies, the detection from the Honorable
Bilks Is likely to be still greater, but in
that case the Republicans probably profit
to some extent. Itis difficult to say what
the effect will be in the interior, but It can
hardly fail 10 be disastrous to.the Honora-
bic Bilks. The Chronicle has been the
head and front Of that organization. n
A procession on the way to the Sand
Lots have stopped at the Workingmen's
headquarters, Market street, near Fifth,
where the Ward Presidents are in session.
KeGrney entered the building and join
ed the Ward Presidents. The crowd gath
cred around, blocking up the street en-
trance, guarded by sDntipels with fixed
bayonets, and none were admitted with.
out the countersign. It was announced
from window that nothing would be done
without due deliberation, but that ven
geance would be taken. No reporters
were admitted, and the nature OF the de-
liberations are unknown. -..-.. I.
Kearney arrived on the Vallejo boat this
evening. At the wharf.-the was met by a
crowd OF several thousand, who received
their leader with an almost frantic exhibit
ton OF Joy. Three OF the Workingmen's
military companies, numbering one hun
dred and sixty men, with rifles and fxed
bayonets, were on hand as an escort.
With Kearney at their head, the process
sion moved up Market street for the Sand
Lots, filing the street for several
blocks, and making the air ring with cheera
