utTlir BULLET' • eft Fifth and unee u t Street fS \3cl Club Is. Republican Invinolb/69 pEnsc)-- 10.4zi SHOT HOW THE 'POLICE 'ACTED It ins onrititinced yesterdaY that the KeystoneClub4 Denaticratie organization, would make a . street; Parade' ,last night. The Republican Invincibles were to attend mass-meeting in the Second Ward. It was ituttorod,i thOday that an attack was to be made on the Re-- '. Publicans, and in order to avoid • any disturbancei, Mayor Fox yestelday sent messengers to Mr. Morrts ?Nile, President of the Keystone Club, and 'requested ' him to so regulate the route that there world be no col: lisions.'. Mr. Nagle, it is said, gave positlie -assurances .that his club should not, parade south OLArch street:. The Keystoners,it Vrould seem, however, were "spoiling . for a fight," and after starting , from-their headquarter' , at. Ninth and Arch streets, got into Chestnut street,. puked . along. to - Fifth street, and turned down Fifth, for the ptirpOse •of , passing.' the headquarters of the Republican incinciblec in the Mei "ciiritile Library Building. At the time the head of the ' line el the Keystone Club turned into Fifth' street from Ch4tnut, the roof of the Republican Invinciblee had just turned off 'into Walnut street. As the Keystones 7d the Invincibles' Headquarters they groaned, but Tice notice, Was takeiro t• e ns e i ernocra • la 4:theii parade . without . molestation, „ and finally went up' Eleventh' street between •9 • and 10 o'clock. It, 'Was then Supposed that they would not,: again -Make their appearance in the Inwer part of the city. 'ln the meantime the Republican Invincibles had reached their headquarters, and had been dismissed. About tea o'clock the Keystone Club wee observed turning into Chestnut street, from Fourth, ;havlng*one as, far north as Green street, and then re• , turned. Sucti of the members of the Republican Invin , ethics as bad remained in, the vicinity of the beadquar •tere' gathered at Fift,kl and Chestnut streets to see the. Democratic turnout. When thi Keystoners had nearly passed through the crowd 'emu° persons in . the line began lo cheer for Tacker. This was met by grotins from parties on the sidewalk. The Democrats waved thelrlanterns as they cheered,and the brisk flour ish of tho lanterns and the intermingling groans and i . cheers threw out the Impression that a fight was going ti. Those iti the front ranks of theaKeystone Club then Made a rash towards Fifth street. Those in the' roar • 'cried "go on," and' the lino began moving , again.. in a few seconds • a man named Arthur -.Potter, who 'was marching in the street among the Key stones, then struck and knocked down one of, the Repu6- Rena Invincibles who was standing at Fifth and Chest= 'nut streets. Potter was imniediately arrested by High Constable Clark and was taken into the Central Station. . Thaconfusion time occasioned was die beginning of what turned.out to be a very serious riot. The Key stoners at once commenced to brandish:their torches,and finish was made for the crowd at ,the corner. At, this time a pistol was fired ,and this increased tho excitement. .:,The opposing parties soon got pretty well mixed, lint several more shots were fired, and caused a general scat tering, the Keystoneere huddling - together:nu Chestnut street, just above : Fifth, and the Invincibles retreating (being comparatively small in numbers) down Fifth street, towards their headquarters. The ball .was now. fairly °Paned. First, the Keystones made a dash down Fifth .sty et, driving the Invincibles, but the latter soon rallied , and making a resolute stand, the Key stones were . seen scattering like' sheep • .up Chestnut street.,---Again the_Keystonearallied and took,_ through superiority of numbers, permanent possession of Fifth street. During this time pistols were tired from both • sides in 'rapid succession, and the Mercantile Library Building, the Central Station and. other build-'' ings on Fifth street bear the marks of pistol shots. Finally, the Keystones Succeeded , in pressing ;their way down Fifth street, as ' far as the head quarters of the Invincibles, and not finding any particular opposition, a small , party of them gathered in front of the 'Mercantile Librekry building, and;by means of one of their torches, in the hands of a man who was , lifted up on the shoulders of some of the others, the large transparency in front of the building, belonging to the Invincibles, was fired and entirely con sinned. Bricks, stones and other missiles were then thrown at the building and many of the 'windows were smashed, and it was otherwise thunaged. At the time the only polideuien about the Central Station were High Constables R. G. Clark And John Robb, and,Detectives Charles Moore, lames M. Roberts , and Edward Burrisrand Sergeant Charles Crout, of the Reserve Corps.. High Constable John Curley was on a Fifth street car, and hearing the firing. soon reached the spot. Soon other policemen came about, but they either ran away again, or refused to assist to quell the disturbances. High Constable Curley ordered some of them' to duty, and was mot with' the remark "Who .in h—l aro you?" lie replied, "I am yolir superior offi cer, and you must obey my orders ;" but they didn't obey his orders. The police, except those mentioned above, and Reserve Officer Wm., Carson, did nothing to quell the riot. Messrs. clark, Curley, "Keish, Crout, Moore, Roberts and turns Were inthe thickest, of the fray, either attempting to separate the Combatants, or engaged incarrying into the Central Station those who had been shot, and some of tho officers bear the marks of .the deadly strife which was going on. Kelsh was beaten about the head with a lantern. Burns had a foot se verely injured by a brick.. Clark made a very narrow escape from death ; a pistol ball struck his coat sleeve, glanced up and passed' through the breast of his coat, and half way thrmigh a large wallet which he' had In his pocket. That wallet saved his life. Po- liceman Carson was shot in the foot Of course these brave police officers were not sufficient in numberato - quell a disturbance which had assumed such yak proportions, and as there was no aid from other policemen, the fighting continued until the combatints got tired of shooting and slashing, and, retired from the struggle. Squadt,okpolicenieu from th‘e.Third and Fifth Districts arrived at the steno of riot, but when they got there, the affair was all oViieniid the excitement had al most subsided. It seems to be disgraceful that such riotous proceedings should take place in front of the Mayor's office and the Central Police Station. In former times, when political excitement ran high, and when there Was the slightest prospect of a row,tho Central Station was filled with policemen, properly officered, and ready to start 'on the instant to any place where a disturbance was threatened. Then no time was allowed fora serious tight, and if thirty or forty resolute police men had been at Fifth and Chestnut streets dust night, the many persona wounded would not have been suffer. ing to-day. The number of persans injured last night cannot even be estimated. Some were cut niith bricks and lanterns, others were subbed, and others were injured by pistol . shots. The number of shots tired is variously estimated at from MO LOU. The following is a list Of those wounded, us fur as could be ascertained William A. Barrett,residing at No. 636 Marshall street, shot in the head. lie has no connection with either club, but was quietly looking on. Frank White( of the Keystones), Fifteenth and San. soul streets, shot in the side. George D. James (of the Keystones), No. 867 North Ninth street, stubbed In the neck. William DeGroot, No. 1105 Division street, injured in the foot. Charles Shuster, struck with a missile. Morrfs J. Nagle, .President of the Keystone club, shot in the neck. • coomr (of the Invincibles) shot In the cheek. wini am J . Eskies (of the Invincibles), shot in the unu. J macs Crispin, (of the Divincibles), shot in the head. Ebenezer Harper (of the Invincibles), shot in the thigh. George #irul, a youth about eighteen years of age, was on Library street when the affair took place. His brother told hint to go lame at once, when - a man, dressed in dark suit, stepped out of an alloy, presented a pistol, and shot him in the breast. ' • Joseph Bunts (of the Inviacibles), aged twenty-four years, residing at Fifth and Carpenter streets, was shot In the left side, and had three ribs broken. He was taken . to the Pennsylvania Hospital. Robert A . Welsh, Reporter, who was standing in the Detective office; looking, out 'of the windovr, was struck on the head by a spent ball, Which passed through. the window. Wolter 111chnrds n Reporter; - who Ardthitanding by' the side of Mr. Welsh, made a narrow escape, a hall grazing the top of his hat. Chas. Shuster, who was arrested by Detective Burns, and Arthur Potter, who was arrested by High Constable Clark, had a bearing before Ald. Kerr this morning upon the charge of having been concerned. in the riot. They were each held in e 2,000 bail to answer it Court.

Miss Keene played" Florence Treu chard" capitally, as she has done hundreds of times before. Mr. Vining Dowers gave a very clever persona tion of " Asa Trenchard," and Mr. Otis contrived to make hie " Loid Dundreary" origipat and entertaining. Mr. Sheridan's ," Abel Murcot" was good,.but It ha's been surpassed upon the stage of the Chestnut. The minor characters were admirably supported by the members of the very excellent company'.
