THE TROUBLE IN CINCINNATI.
A Cincinnati special to the New Yorh
Sun says "The first killing OF the day
occurred at the polls in Precinct A Of
ward Eighteen, at ii, 45 in the morning
Shortly before that time two oolored men,
Albert Russell, Billy Copeland, and q
United States marshal, John Csyrs, also
oolored, were standing in front OF the
polls on Central avenue, just below Fifth
street., engaged In loud talking. 1t
appears that the mArahsl had been
DIGGING Russell about for some time, and
the latter demanded several times that
ne be let alone. The marshal did not
heed him, however, aud euidenly Russell
turned and applied some epi.hets 90 the
marshal, which the latter resented"
"Why don't the Republican -
keep away from me :" exclaimed Russell.
"Don't call me that name," was hardly
uttered by the marshal before Russell.
hsd drawn his revolver. Quick as q
flash the oolored marshal Cayne drew his
revolver and fired OF Russell's stomach.
The ball passed through his abdomen,
after breaking rib. Russell staggered
few feet and fell in the street. Patrol
No. A was called, but Russell died in a
drug store before they arrived. The
murderer turned and, before policeman
could lay hands on him, was hurried to
United States Marshal Wright's office by
two deputies.
Riot ard bloodehed were prevalent In
Precinct b OF the Eighth ward about
nom. Ever since the opening Of the
polls trouble had been brewing between
the msrshAls, who were all oolored and
about 40 in number, and the Democratic
rallyiDg committees and deputy sheriff.
Loud threats, hstioutfs, and drawn 70
volvers were in order all the morning.
This finally came TO head about IL 30
O'Clock, Ahen all the colored marshals, rs
II by d prtconcerted plan, stepped into
the oerr. u the street, Grew their re-.
yolvs!s, and declared their Intention Of
having IL p.Sy. This eesaed to be
Seylloie tsr tad. TLs Democrats assem-
LED auG jumped mo The oolored mems
AK, a4'i baeaa lighting with their
t4ts The marshals began shooting,
nd the bullets few thick ard
last. Those OF the Democrats who had
pistols retAlisted, while others used
boulders. The police started to interfere,
but we're overpowered and driven back.
An alarm was given, and patrol No.
came galloping down. The belligerents,
seeing them coming, ran In all directions.
After thu s,I-st was cleared It WAS found
two N a had been wounded. John
d .liou, maohinist, had been shot in
the LETT leg, and Joe Lowery had been
shot in the region Of the spine, the bul
let passing through his body. A hasty
surgical examination led to the belief
that Lovery is fatally wounded.
AfterWard q shout was heard in the
street to lynch all the negross, who began
to dispense hurriedly. Somebody raised
the cry that Campbell Clark, a oolored
marshal, had shot john Dalton. A
search was made for Clark, but he was
not found. 1t was then rumoTei that
Clark was shot, but this was not sub
stAntiated. Then another cry was raised
that one Of the ehooters was concealed In
an alley on Pearl street, between Race
and Elm. Patrol No. / was on hand sad
hurried to the spot, but the mob got there
first and found oolored man named Dory
Kinney, whoa they beat teerfully. The
police were almcst powsrless, but by

Kinney, This Off ,ers hsstily put him
into q wagon aud took him to the central
office, where he was looked up.

con Bennett was ebot in the leg at the
same time. Lou's Clark, cOloTed, wss

DEPUTY MARSHAL RoUGHs.
A Nsw York Herald special from Gin
oinnati says: Dat Of the 5000 deputies
1000 OF them were negroes of the mcst
vicious and disrepntable class, the
majority Of whom were from Kentucky,
armed as they were with elk sh0i tiers
and bludseons. In some portions OF the
city they took control, and In mary
iuRtanoes drove from the streets reputable
citizens and women and children. AT
both Of the precincts In the Sixth ward,
which il the negro ward OF the city, they
took possession of the polls and actually
ran it TO suit themselves. Such Fcsues
rs were snscIed to day were never before
Witnessed IN the state OF Ohio on the
occasion OF an election. Ont Of all the
deputies who did service to day In this
city It would be difficult to find one who
could lay claim to responsibility in the
community in which he livea.
The negro de- u.iss were the worat u
all, firing their pistols In all directions
upon any of the prominent streets, and
threatsping to kill al Democrats who
came In their way. In The Eighteenth
ward, Albert Russell, a oolored man,
who attempted to vote the Democratic
ticket, was shot through the heart by
Deputy Mars0sll Cayne, VII was also
oolored. Csyne escaped and sought pro.
tautinn at the Republican headquarters
In tine custom house, and up to tne
present time has not beyn arrested. IL
the Eighth ward riot, melted by tie
c0loted mRrsaals, reigned supreme until
until Sheriff Hawkins fortified the pre-
oipot with deputy sheriffs sufficient to
maintain peace. Before the arrival Of
the deputy sheriffi, the rallying commit
tee Of the Democrats were attacked ,snd for
while bullets few thick and fast. When
quiet was restored two men, John Dalton
aud Joseph Lowry, were found wounded,
both of WHOM will die. At O'Clock the
scenes on Fourth street, with a mob
headed by negro deputies driving white
voters from tho west end wards 10 the
direction OF the custom house, ia without
a parallel. The white element Of the
deputies were bad enough, being men
without Judgment or reason, who thought
1t their chief duty to shoot at Democrats
on all occasions, The audAolous and ont
