Cleveland and Hill.

THEIR RESPECTIVE FOLLOWERS INDULGE IN A
RIOT AT CoHoES.
There was lively time at Cohoes n. Y, YES
terday over the democratic primaries to nomi-
nate supervisors, aldermen, and city ticket.
d. Cady Herrick with Postmaster Larkin and ex-
County Clerk Larkin, were in command of the
Cleveland forces. while the Hill following was
directed by Edward Murphy, jr, from TROY.
with Mayor Garside in immediate command.
Rioting occurred in three of the wards. while
IN the other two the Larkin regulars had things
their own way, and nominated their men by
malorities of four and seven. In the other
three wards violence was the rule The Larkin
men had the inspectors, the Garsde men the
police. The latter were present at the polls in
force Civilians sworn in as specials were left
In control of the station house. In one of the
wards, after the regulars had admitted the
watcher of the other side to the polling place,
one OF the police endeavored to force his way
In. He was warned to desist but persisted and
with sledge hammer battered down the door.
He was struck on the head with lead pine n
hole was cut through his cheek and staggering
back, covered with blood. he fell outside the
poll. Then the riot began. Pistols knives and
clubs were used. The ballot-box was smashed.
and both sides claimed the victory. No one
was fatally injured except possibly the police
nan. In another ward a policeman endeavored
to make his way into the polling place through
saloon next door. He was choked by the pro-
prletor until black in the face, thrown over the
bar and kicked into the street. In another
head, infiicting injuries which are reported
fatal Two democratic city tickets and two
democratic candidates in each ward will be the
result.
