THE sHELBYvILLE TRAGEDY-A DEMOCRATIC
MEETING-ADDREss OF EX GOVERNOR HEN
DRIcKs-RRPUBLlcANs ENCOURAGED.
CHICAGO, October 11th.-The Tribune's
Shelbyville special says: The excitement oc-
casioned by the killing of Albert McCorkle,
Sheriff, last Saturday, has somewhat sub
sided. Still considerable bitter feeling ex-
lists, but not sufficient to cause further blood
shed. Young Kennedy, who did the shooting,
is still at large. The calamity is deplored by
all. MoCorkle was SO years old, and at the
time of his death was serving second term
as Sheriff. HIS was the senior partner of the
Shelby Democrat, the county organ. but was
not connected with the paper except as finan-
cial manager. Aside from politics McCorkle
was useful citizen, AN upright, sober man,
and person who never Intentionally harmed
any one. The boy who did the shooting is
Only IL years old, and comes from respecta-
bic family.
The Democracy held their final rally here
to-day, and it was feared that the scenes of
Saturday would be repeated; but all passed
off N 10 bo
fact that the Republicans kept perfectly
quiet, having nothing to say or do. There
can BEN doubt that had any Republican dared
to express his political opinion certain ele-
ment OF the Democrats were prepared to
begin hostilities. The crowd was estimated
at 80 600, men, women and children.
Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks delivered
an address, and the part of it referring
to the recent riot and threatened trouble
tomorrow did him much credit, as well as
doing great deal towards allaying the pres
ent excitement. He advocated peace at the
polls in strong terms, urging every man in
the county to do all in his power towards
preventing another outbreak. In regard to
Kennedy, he said: Should the officers sue
coed in capturing him, whatever you do, do
not resort to mob violence. Select twelve CT
your best men, give him q fair and impartial
trial and abide by the decision"
Tonight the Republicans feel much en-.
eouraged over the turn of affairs, and do not
anticipate much trouble. There is, however,
feeling brewing that is very malignant,
and should anything unfavorable occur, no
power can prevent another and very serious
riot. Ii it is commenced there is no telling
where it will end The bulldozing element
indulge in threats, and their fury, if again
aroused, now that McCorkle is dead, will
know no bounds. The Republicans intend
going to the polls and remaining all day,
and are intent that every man who has a legal
right to vote shall cast it unmolested.
MORE DEMOCRATIC BRUTALITY.
INDIANAPOLIS, October 11th.-The Erening
Nelrs has dispatch from Evansville, stating
that at Democratic meeting at Rockport on
Saturday, l.. n. Schonfeld shot down in cold
blood Uriah Webb. colored man, who was
fleeing for his life from mob of eco or 800
Democrats. Another negro was badly cut.
While Webb lay welteripg in his blood in the
street, the Hancock aud English Club, in un-
form, swung their hats and gave three
cheers for Hancock. Schonfeld had not been
arrested at last accounts.
GREAT HOPE AND CONFIDENCE.
INDIANAPOLIS, October 11th. = Marshal
Dudley's scheme for spotting voters has re.
suited in placing him in possession of over
2, 500 names of persons who have located in
Indiana within six months, and who have OF
csurse no right to vote. The feeling among
the Republican managers to. nights certainly
one of great hope and confidence. On their
figures, gathered for the information of the
committee, they have the State by 5000 ma
jority certain. The uncertain quantity, as has
been often remarked, is fraud. If with the
immense amount OF money brought into this
State, to which Barnum added on his return
Saturday night nearly $40 goo, the Democrats
shall be able to buy only five votes at each
precinct in the State, it would make differ
ence of 0,000 votes in the result.
JUST BEFORE THE BATTLE.
COLUMBUS, October th-To-day has beer
occupied by both State committees in sending
out final instructions to their followers.
Both parties have splendid organizations in
the State. and an immense vote will be polled
tomorrow. Each party claims to have taken
every precaution for polling its entire vote,
and to preserve the purity Of the ballot-box.
A FEELING OF RELIEF.
CHICAGO October 11th.-The Inter. Oceans
Indianapolis special says: The general feel
ing tonight is one of relief from the fears
that have prevailed of trouble on Tuesday.
There has been SO much talk of trouble, and
the citizens have been so persstently warned
that the prevention has come with the alarm.
There is more danger Of trouble at many
other large towns than here.

Washington special says: The Evening Star,
in telegram from New York, repeats the
following interview with General Grant:
" 1t is known that you favor the election
of General Garfield. What do you think
would be the result of his election upon the
business community ?"
Is believe that the people are prosperous

opinion better known than the fact that our
people are doing well. / believe that if
General Garfield is elected our prosperity
will continue without interruption, and that
