THE oRANGEMEN'S RIOT.
BELFAST, June Last night q mob Of
Orangemen made an attack upon tay-
ern kept by Catholic named Duffy. The
police were promptly on the scene, and
after a stubbOrn contest, during which
they used their oarhines, drove the mob
away in disorder. The rioters Teasscm-
bled with Increased strength and again
srtRvked Dasy's, this time oyerpow-
ing the police aud driving them
from the place. In the first assault ChNf
of Police Carr was wounded and carried
home, where he lies in critical c0ndi-
ton. When the 0rangemen returned to
the fight they were accompanied by a
large number OF factory girls who goaded
or shamed the men on to battle, and
formed most dangerous element. When
the officers abandoned Duny's, the mob
at once took complete possession OF the
tavern. II was thoroughly sacked, all
taps and spiggots set running, and every
body invited to help himself according
to taste. All barrels OF liquor
found in stock were carried into
the street, lifted up high and let fall until
broken and the contents all lost. The
furniture was carried out and piled I'm the
center Of the roadway aud burned In a
bonfire to furnish the rioters with light
during the debauch. Men, youths and
girls drank until they fell helpless in the
streets, the girls acting wi h greater fury
in the early stages of the orgie than the
men, in noise, profanity and disorder.
The terrible mob ended its work here by
firing the tavern itself, aud 1t burned TO
the ground. Then the stronger men, who
had become Infatuated, not oyeTpowered,
ran through the streets pillaging
wherever they went, increasing In fol
lowers the further they proceeded. Fhese
rioters after while congregated around
the police station and stoned the place
until they were tired and then marched
toward another tavern. The police
fastened thither In advance and at
tempted to protect property, but they
were overpoWered and driven away and
the mob left in possession.
They treated this tavern as they
had treated Duhy's; turned
on all the taps, broke the full barrels IN
the street, made bonfire Of the furniture
and finally set fre to the building. The
police returned this time and got the bet
Ter of the mob, whose ranks were de-
pleted by scores who had fallen away IN
drunkenness, and eXtinguishcd the famei
before they could gain control OF thC
structure, but the officers were unable u
drive the rioters away from the locality
they remained and dominated until morn
ing. During the rowdyism OF the night
Gladstone and Parnell were both burned
In efIlgy, and q dummy corpse labeled
"Home Rule" cremated.
Two men named Hart and Macon were
arrested to-day for the murder OF Ihos
Gallagher, who was shot dead last ElSh'
during the riotlng at Luragan. Gallagher
WAS well-known local simpletoni VINO
waved an Orange sash 10 the face OF the
home-rule mob during the incessant IRE
between that mob and its Orange en-
emies. During the night the situation al
one time became so desperate tha'
Mathers, local Orange leader
nnbilcly declared that unless the
authorities did their duty he and 1000
armed Orangemen would take charge o.
the town, Mathers was on the point o.
carving out his threat when the military
appeared. To-day there was httlt
etone-throwing at Lursgan, out other
wise the town has been quot A numDel

thst they are yet in the hospital. Twenty
rioters are now under arrest. The cor
oner's Jury found that Gsllaghel

wounds and censured the authorities
for not having sufficient police topreseryg'
order. The rioting was renewed here TIM
