Many are wounded and possibly many
are killed. The treasurer's office is
already doomed and the court house
seems likely TO burn down. Armory
hail on Court street near the court
is on fire. Capt. Desmond of the LIST
regiment was killed and Sergeant
Malone seriously wounded, and also
Private McBrain.
The troops are all gathered in the
jail. The fire department for once re
fused to respond to the alarm until an
escort of troops was sent. When the
first engine appeared the mob with
drawn reyolvers warned them to go
no further. They obeyed. While
hand to hand fight was in progress
the police now and then made dash
for the crowd and arrested a number
OF rioters taking them into the Jail
They refused TO give names in every
instance. Many of them were well
dressed, good looking men. Still it
is impossible to tell how many dead
and wounded there are. Nine dead
bodies are in the morgue at Habig's.
One IS Dugan, a furniture manufac-
turer. AT the hospital, at / o'clock,
are the following.

that Col. Hunt and Lieut.. O'Mera, of

is difficult.
