T1. At A Klot-Mhrtr Nolcn Shot.
When the votes for Receiver of Taxes were about
to be called, Mr. Shoemaker arose and stated that
there were discrepancies In the returns of tae
Twentv-sixth ward, and he moved that Colonel
Mann be admitted as counsel.
An amendment was made to Jadmlt Mr. Cassldy.
This was agreed to unanimously.
The messenger was despatched for these gentle
men, and in a few seconds there was a noise outside
of the door, and on the messenger opening it, John
Ahem was foremost, and clinched with him. He
was then hustled out, and as he went, he cried,
'Will see no one but ju Jges get In there."
Colonel Mann was then announced, and a scene
of Indescribable confusion ensued. Colonel Mann
ipserted his rights, and the door was opened Mann
biing on the lead.
A Democratic Judge arose and hoped there would
be no trouble. While he was speaking the door was
besieged by ooth the police and the outsiders, headed
by Ahem, McMullin, R. Smith Lister, and Shay
Nolen. Blackjacks were pulled nut andiieads were
hammered without number. Colonel Mann suc
ceeded In getting Id and the next man was Ahem,
who was jammed between the doors. He had a
billy In his hand and it was taken from him. In the
meantime he was badly cut about the head.
Finally the panels of the door were broken in and
the door Itself yielded. Shay Nolan ran to the
centre of the room, when a spittoon was hurled at
one of the Judges. He turned and seeing Nolan near
him pulled out a revolver and fired. Tho ball took
eileot In the neck. The wounded man was carried
oil by his friends to a carriage on Filth street and
driven away. Blackjacks were flourished, and the
outsiders were evidently in possession of the soom ;
the police never once attempting to keep them out,
notwithstanding there were enough policemen there
to have taken thirty men In change.
Immediately after the shooting of Nolan Mr.
Cassldy arrived, and, using his lniluence, succeeded
in clearing the room or all but the Judges and him
self and Mr. Mann. Lieutenant Curley and a posse
of officers then entered the room and, strange to
relate, not one of the besiegers was taken Into cus
tody, but Mr. Peterman, one of the doorkeepers,
and Mr. Alexander Crawford, the judge of the
Nineteenth ward, were arrested. McMullin, Lister,
Ahem the latter bleeding profusely from the head
and the remainder of the mob left the scene un
molested. Crawford will be charged with the shooting of
Nolen. When this fellow dropped some of the more
prominent of the rioters were seen running among
the police begging them to give him a revolver.
Return Judge Selbert, during the melee, called
upon the police to Interfere, but they either stood
like statues or they aided and abetted the rioters.
One ol them was noticed using his billy on the
heads of the judges who were trying to keep the
uoor shut.
The room having been cleared, a motion prevailed
that a short recess be taken.
Some twenty minutes elapsing, the roll of Judges
was called, and all were present exceptiog those re
prebentlng the Nineteenth and Twenty-sixth wards,
the latter having lelt the room and the former hav
ing been arrested.
Colonel Mann, speaking for himself and Mr. Cas
sldy, then made a few remarks, in whieh he coun
selled the judges as to the course they suou'.d pur
sue. They had better take only those returns from
the judges that bore an honest face, and that could
only te In the shape of a document made np at the
meeting of the judges of the elections of the various
precincts In the ward. All else should be excluded.
After having finished their labors In that respect,
If they were deficient In any returns they could go
to the Court and make a statement, on which the
Court would furnish them with the next best re
cord to be original, the return made to the I'rotuo
notary of the Court of Common Pleas,
A judge then stated that the Return Jndge of the
Twenty-sixth ward had entered the room, and at
his request had given blm the figures oir a sheet of
foolscap, to which there were no signatures. The
speaker desired to know of Colonel Mann whether
such should le received.
ColoneliMann, emphatically, No, sir.
Another judge then stated that the Retain Judge
of the Twenty-sixth ward had told him that he was
drunk last night and bad lost his papers.
Colonel Mann Then it is better that yon repre
sent the case to the Court, who will see that Justice
Is done.
President English then proceeded with the read
ing of the returns for Receiver of Taxes.
The riotous proceedings in the room created such
a noise that hundreds of men were attracted to the
entrance to the main door on the State House pave
ment leading to the court-room, but here the police
performed their duty and prevented any effecting
an entrance to the ball. The news spread rapidly,
and In twenty minutes there were several thousand
people on Chesnut street.
The demonstration made on the judges seems to
have been the result or a misunderstanding by the
outsiders, as both the Democratic and Republican
judges had agreed that counsel should be admitted
for the purpose of giving advice as to the matter in
the Twenty-sixth ward
The Case In Court
Soon after Crawford, the Return Judge from the
Ninth ward, was locked up at the Central Police
Statloa Counsel appeared before Judge Allison in
the Common Pleus Court, and asked that a writ of
habeas corpus Issue In the case ; that it was neces
sary that the prisoner should transact his business
In the Board of Return Judges.
William B. Mann, Esq., then narrated the circum
stances of the aiialr, and gave In detail all the facts
connected with the disgraceful proceedings in the
board, brought about by a set of roffiaus forcing
themselves into the room.
The Judge at once ordered the prisoner to be
brought before him. and after listening to both sides
or the story he ordered Lieutenant Thomas to re
turn the prisoner to bis place on the Board of Re
turn Judges, and continue him in custody until a
full investigation or the case was made. He
specially directed that after the meeting ol the board
Crawford sboulfl be returned to the Central Police
Station.
Judge Allison took occcaslon to censure the police
force lor not preventing the disturbance alluded to,
and said It was a reproach to a city like Philadelphia
that such an all air should occur so near the Court
Ilouce.
Lieutenant Thomas said that he had some thirty
three men to protect the peace.
The Judge answered that that dil not speak well
for the police force. If it was thought necessary the
Mayor or his oittcer In charge should have had five
hundred and thirty-three men to protect the peace.
Lieutenant Curley, who was present, remarked
that he thought the present police force was equal
to any force ever possessed by the city, and Judge
Allison answered that he was not Bitting to argue
that question.
The papers containing the returns from the 8 nth.
dlvUlou of the Sixteenth ward were sent for but
could net be found. In place of them some papers
were piesented which bore such evident marks of
fraud upon them that the counsel tor both sides
agreed that they should be thrrwn out. To this
objection was made and a committee was sent to
ask Instruction from the Court.
To these Judge Allison said that if he were a re
turn mdge and papers were presented with such
gross i' arks of fraud upon them he wouM certainly

Grave Charges Against a Clergyman He De
clines to Answer Xheiu and Keslgns Ills
Pastorate.
The Troy Times of the llth lustant has the
following:
Some weeks since there appeared In these
columns a paragraph stating that grave rumors
in regard to the morals of an up-town clergy
man were in circulation. The name of the
person was not given, as it was hoped that he
would be able to disprove the rumors. Later
developments render this almest an impossi
bility, and we now feel called upon to give
publicity to facts that have for a considerable
time been in our possession.
The clergy man to whom reference was made
is the Rev. J. W. Tucker, who in June last was
appointed pastor of the Vail Avenue Methodist
Church, lie came originally from a Southern
Conference, and as his credentials were without
a flaw, he was cordially welcome by his ministe
rial brethren. A few weeks since he went
South on a visit, bis congregation having granted
him fonr weeks' leave of absence. Soon after
his departure scandalous rumors began to circu
late. It was whispered that a woman was living
in Hudson who Lad a child, of which she said
Mr. Tucker was the father.
The rumor was deemed a proper subject for
investigation, and the presiding elder of this
district visited the lady down the river. She
admitted that the child was Mr. Tucker's, but
asserted that she was his wife. Further investi
gation brought to light the fact that during Mr.
Tucker's pastorate at Granville, Washington
county, this same woman was known as his
niece, and that something in their actions caused
a great deal of talk among the people, which
finally ended by the departure of the woman.
After ascertaining these facts the eider wrote
to Mr. Tucker and urged him to return and clear
np these charges if he could. In response to
this communication a letter was received the
other day from the reverend sluner, which con
tained a general denial of everything implicat
ing him, but closing with the resignation of his
pastorate. This is taken by the majority of his
former congregation as a substantial admission
of Immoral practices. Mr. Tucker is jaiii :o
1 a talented and effective preacher.

fallen off materially. The activity at the Stock

to the market. There is no material change in
the movement of currency, the drain South and

thence In payment of fall goods. The banks
are discounting freely to-day for their deposi
