The Kalloeh and De Young Mat
 ter.

l ter.
 From last Saturdays Bulletin:
 After Rev. I. s. Kalloch had closed
 a bitter speech in his own defense in
 the Metropolitan Temple last even
 ing, which ended with a bitter de-
 nunciation of the De Youngs, he left
 the building, and mounting the ros-
 trum which had been erected in front
 of the main entrance on Fifth street,
 addressed the multitude, comprising 2 many thousand people, which had
 gathered on the street, blocking that throughfare nearly from Market street to the steps of the Mint He began by recounting the attack that had been made in the Chronicle, not only upon himself, but upon his father who died and was burled in this State about thirty years ago, and claimed that he was fully justified in describing the character and social status of the misercants who had made this attack on his honored fath- CT. He then described Charles and Michael de Young as the bastard sons of a" prostitute using the saxon word to convey his meaning.
 It was understood during the day that such statement would be made and reports were also current that the de Youngs threatened to shoot Kalloch on the spot were he to do it. At 10 o'clock this morning the threat was carried into execution by Charles de Young, who shot Mir. Kallock, in front of the Metropolitan Temple.
 The statements of the witnesses of the shooting agree on the manner in which it was done. De Young 95ove up to the Temple in a coupe just as MT. KallOch was coming out of the Temple and about to get into his buggy, and sending an American District messenger boy to the latter to inform him that a lady in the coupe wanted to see him Not sus- pecting anything wrong, Mir. Kal- loch took off his hat and approached De Young's coupe, the blind of which was drawn down. When MT. Kal- loch took hold of the handle of the coupe De young deliberately dis charged the contents of a large pis- tol into Kalloch's breast. Then jumping out as Mir. Kalloch was turning around, he fired q second shot into Mir. Kalloch's thigh.
 Alter the shot was fired several persons at once endeavored to inter cept De Young before he got into his carriage, but failing to do so, seized the vehicle and overturned it in their desperate efforts to drag De Young out. At this point in tho pro ceedings, police officers in the vicin- ity rescued De Young, and under their protection he fled to the old City Hall, where he arrived in safety.
 Mir. Kalloch was conveyed at once by friends to the inner study of the Temple-the room adjoining the office, and made as comfortable as the circumstances would permit Physicians were summoned.
 The rapid gathering of ex- cited men about the City Hall led the Sheriff and Chief of Pol1cs to fear that an effort would be mace to De Young They gave or ders to lock their offices and direc- ted all their officers to guard the front and rear entrances to the prison. It was suggested by some of De Young's friends that he should be taken to the County jail on Broad way for safety. Others suggested that Alcatraz Island was the only safe retreat for him under the circum- stances. But the officers feared to take him out of the prison, and while they were deliberating a contin~ ual stream of men poured in from all quarters.
 At few minutes after 12 o'clock, C'litus Barbour as representative of the W. P. C., was permitted in response to a wish expressed by the Working men, to see Charles De Young, in or der to ,how that he was still in the City Prison. Barbour was conducted into what is known as the tank, under the sidewalk on Kearney street where De Young was lying on a straw His brother, Michael was in the cell with him. De Young rose to meet Barbour and held out l his hand, offering to shake hands | with him. This Barbour refused to do. Barbour then left the cell, giving the authorities to understand that they will submit to no ''shenanagin'' in the case. In order to give the Workingmcn still more confidence, two Workingmen were sworn in as specials and placed as part of the guard at De Yeung's cell
