Fatal Affray.

ScoTTDAIs, Nov. 2.-Tbis afternoon re-
ports reached here of terrible riot at West
Overton Last night Telephone messages ask
ed that officers be sent, and three special Of
ficers started at once from here. Late to-
night the police returned with sveral Italian
prisoners. They were employees Of the Stark
brothers. bailding the water works there and
they were at once bailed out by their em-
ployers. Two of the Italians are fatally shoS
and were taken away by their friends. They
refuse to give their names.
Police officers state that the Italians, who
had been drinking, made q raid through a
Hungarian settlement at West 0verton and
began yelling at the women and finally
threw stones into the houses. A gang Of
Hungarians made a dash for the Italians,
and a terrible fight began. Over 30 shots
were fired, while each man who had no
pistol was armed with a knife When the
two Italians fell mortally wounded, there
was a cessation in the struggle long enough
to enable couple of officers to break up the
riot. Hardly one man out of the 10 in the
tight escaped without pistol shot or knife
wound, or badly bruised BY stones or clubs,
and it is thought that of the wounded taken
away more than the two mentioned will die.

THE LOCAL DEMOCRACY ROUTED.
DISTRICT DEMOCRATS GIVEN THE R.4ZZLE-
D.4ZZLE

Elections took place in eleven States
yesterday, but oaly FIVE were Of special
importance. Pennsylvania gives over
$1,000 majority for the head of the Re-
publican ticket, but Captain Morrison,
for State Treasurer, runs a few thousand
behind, owing TO the fact that the gran
ger organization supported mixed ticket
composed of Gregg and Tilden. In Ohio
McKinley's election is conceded by about
1900 majority. The Republicans con-
troll both branches of the Legislature,
insuring Sherman's reelection In New
York Fsssett sustains defeat, Flowers
plurality being estimated at 5000. In
Massachusetts, Russell is estimated to
have 1900 plurality for Governor, but
the rest Of the Republican State ticket is
elected. Returns from Iowa are con-
fused, but indicate the reelection Of
Boies, the Republicans electing the rest
Of the State ticket.
