THE ASSAULT ON MALONE.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
PETERsBUG, Va, Nov. For the first
time in the history of this state and most
likely any other state has one if the repre-
sentatles in the United States senate been
assaulted at a voting precinct. In this
particular Virginia has distinguished her
self in the person Of one of her senators,
to wit: VIM. Malone, the head and front
Of the resdjuster party in this state. So
great was Mahone's anxiety in this respect
that, accompanied by his son, Butler
Malone, he.drove up to one of the polls
Of that ward yesterday afternoon to con-
vince himself in person of how things
we're going. All OF a sudden there was
rush toward sMahone, who had bounded
from his carriage, and some one hit him
fully in the face. His son, who had been
seated in the carriage, drew pistol and
was about to fire it when some one
wrenched it away. The police, however,
quiesed the trouble, and Senator Malone
Fe-sntered his carriage and was driven off.
Senator Malone states that when he ar
rived at the polls he got out of his car
riage to clear passage, when some one
exclaimed ''a free election and a fair
count" The senator re-echoed the words,
adding: 1T am here to see that such shall
be had" It was then, he says, that a
| crowd closed upon him and struck him. He
says the act was that of "a dirty assassin"
that he would give 800 to know
who his assistant was. On the other hand
the popular version of the difficulty is that
about the time Senator Malone came to
the poll colored man was about to vote
the Democratic ticket when one of the re-
adjuster canvassers said: 'You haven't
| the right ticket; this is !he ticket you want
to VOTE" The colored man insisted, how
ever, that he knew who he wanted to vote
for. Then, it is stated, Senator Malone,
who had watched the controversy, said in
loud tone of voice to his SOB: she has
funder money in his pocket" These words
are alleged to have aroused the indigna-
ton of the crowd, who rushed upon him.
The occurrence is the talk of the town.
