was shot in the shoulder by soldier firing
through Jail window. Cobb was standing on
the sidewalk. The crowd claim that the soldiers
are firing unnecessarily upon the outsiders who
are merely lookers-on. On the other hand, the
soldiers dread an effort to burn the place or blow
it up by rolling coaloil barrels into the base
ment, and justify themselves in clearing the
sidewalks on that account. 1t is said number
of women spectators have been hurt with ran
tervals.
2;3O A. M.-The firing by the soldiers from the
windows has been terribly destructive. The fol
lowing wounded have been gathered into the
drug store at Court and Walnut and at hotel
near:
James Green, dying
Walter Fay, dying.
James Turk mortally wounded
Z. zoehner, badly wounded i'll thigh.
Il. Dullef, shot in the legs.
jackson Tod was badly wounded.
Dr.. Chas Muscraft, police surgeon, slight
wound
Chris Won Seggern, special policeman, slight
wot nd
These were all bystanders and there is a grow
ing bitter feeling against the soldiers.
Ii is probable many slightly wounded went
away and no report was obtained.
ga. M.-Loud reports from the vicinity of the
jail indicate either that the mob is firing canon,
or that barrels of coal oil are being exploded.
These were rolled into the lower part of the Jail
some time ago. The mob organized and
marched up Main street, just now, with fife and
drum. Firing still continues, with prospect of
a bloody battle.
When the militia fred on the mob and cleared
them out of the jail, one man was killed in
the corridor, and another mortal1y wounded,
dying on reaching the hospital A large num-
Der were wounded, some undoubtedly mortally.
Officer Mum was seriously shot in the
groin by rioter. Corporal Rose was badly
wounded by stone thrown. Twenty-four of
the rioters were caught and locked up.
At 2:3O o'clock Officer Joe Stern was
shot in the abdomen, and bled to death in
few minutes jackson Todd was fatally
wounded in the left breast After the mob
gutted the gun store of Kit
redse, they also raided Powells and
another gun-store and returned to
the neighborhood of the Jail The militia began
firing on them and a man, woman and child
were shot and killed by the militia at
Court and Sycamore They were all laid out in
the Northern railroad depot 1t is now said
by the police that sixteen persons
have been killed during the night, and large
number wounded. 1t is impossible to get par
ticulafs

The bodies of the dead were terribly bruised and cut. The force of the wind was unprecedented. I've millstones were moved over hundred feet. Chickens and birds were found picked clean. The largest trees were uprooted and the smaller ones stripped of their bark. At mid night the sky was of 8 dazzling red cslor. The injured belong almost entirely to the poorer classes and there will be much suffer ing and destitution among the survivors. Already twenty thee dead bodies have been found in Richmond county.

 Life and Property.
 EVANSVILLE, Feb. 21.-Ths steamer Hop kins, which arrived from Cairo to-day, re- ports frightful loss by the storm at Metrop- olis, Caseyville, Uniontown and Paducah. There is great suffering and the loss of houses, mills and warehouses is tremendous. Many of the building, were of brick and were thought to be perfectly safe. No loss of life is reported. The weather ia clear and everybody is hopeful that the worst is over.
 S1AwNEETowN, Feb. 21.-Last nights storm was more disastrous than at first re- ported and the probability is that many lives were lost. Young Kialhene, the mail carrier, was knocked down and the mail lost, but he hung to tree till rescued by James Logston, who chanced to pass in a skiff. Caseyville and Uniontown are almost swept away. Half the houses in Shawneetown to-day lie flat and broken on the water. Rations were issued yesterday to seven hundred persons and the supply will soon be exhausted.

The Masquerade of the Ar1ons.

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The annual masquer- ade ball of the Arion society took place to night at Madison Square Garden under the most favorable auspices. The weather was everything that could be desired and noth- ing was left undone to make affair a complete success. The interior of ths building was most elaborately decorated, surpassing in magnifoence all previous years. The dancing began immediately after the committe e parade and was kept up until the- monster procession which issued from the big wine cask started. This was in keeping with everything else connected with the Effair. It varied in many respects from those of previous balls and was viewed by those present with interest and admiration. At the conclusion of the procession the danc- ing was resumed and kept up until late hour. Nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of the occasion.
