.1•E•11P PORK RIOTS.
•
TwErm SEVEN PERSONS KILLED !
FORTY WOUNDED:
We extract the following account of the
fearful riot which occurred in New York on
Thursday night, the 10th instant, at the Ai
tor Place Opera House, from the Tribune of
the 11th instant. •
We are again called upon to record one
of the most shameful events which has ever
disgraced the history of our city. The riot
of Monday night, was but a continuation,
Was harmless in comparison. We give the
particulars in the order of their occurrence,
and almost entirely from our own personal
observation.
In anticipation of a riot,•the rush for tick
ets was very great, and before night, none
were to be had. For some: time before the
doors were opened, people began to collect
in Astor Place, took their stations at the
dobrs and in the buildings. The crowd in
creased with every moment, and when we
came upon the ground, at half-past seven,
the square and street from Broadway to the
Bowery were nearly full. There was such
a tremendous crush about the doors, in spite
of a notice posted up stating that the tickets
were all sold, that several of the entrances
were obliged to be closed. The Police used
every exertion to preserve order, and suc
ceeded in preventing all attempts to force an
cntrance. Inside, the house was filled but
not crowded, and the amphitheater was not
more than half full. The general appear-.
:ince of the audience was respectable, and it I
was hoped at first that there would he no
serious attempt at disturbance. We notic- !
ed, however, that the windows had been
carefully boarded up, and the doors-1111).6ml
ed, the object of which was afterwards made
manifest.
The first two scenes passed over with a
vociferous welcome to Mr. Cla•ke as AMA
ram. The,entrance of Al r. Macready, in the
third act, was the signal for a perfect storm
of cheers, groans and hisses. The whole
audience rose, and the nine-tenths of it who
were friendly to Alacready cheered, waving
their hats and handkerchiefs. A large body
in 'the parquette, with others in the second
tier and amphitheater, hissed and groaned
with equal zeal. The tumult lasted for ten
or fifteen minutes, when an attempt was
made to restore order by a board being
brought upon the stage, upon which was
written "The friends of Order will remain
quiet." 'Phis silenced*all hunt the rioters,
who continued to drown all sound of what
was said upon the starry. Not a word of the
first =could be heard by any on• in the
house. The Policemen presi.lit did little or
nothing. evidently Waiting orders. Finally,
in the last scene of the act, Mr. Maisel!,
Chief of Police, made his appearance ie the
parquette, turd, folk - m.(41 by a number of his
aids. auvrtheis directly down the aisle to the
loader of the flistutbance. whom he secured
after a short but xioi.ent tu,to..;;e. t hue by
one the rioters were taken and carried out,
the greater part of the audience applauding
as they disappeared.
13efore thii; second act WILS over, snmetbiii
of the play could be heard. and in the pauses
of the 'shouts and yells, the orders of the
Chief and his men in tlillerent parts of the
house could be 'ward, as Well as the wild
uproar of the mob without. Mrs. Coleman
Pope, as Lady Macbeth, first preened a lit
tle silence, which ended. however, immedi
ately on .11r. Macready's reapporanco.—
The obnoxious actor went thrum it his part
with perfect self-possession, and raid no re
gard to the tumultuous scene before him.
As the parquette and gallery were cleared
of the noisiest tiOters, the crowds without
grew more violent, and stones were hurled
against the windows on the Astir-place side.
As one window cracked alter another, and
pieces of bricks and pacing stories rattled in
on the terraces and lobbies, the confusion in
creased till the Opera llouse resembled a
fortress besieged by an invading army rath
er than a place meant for the peaceful
amusement of a civilized community. Some
times heavy stories would dash in the boards
which had been nailed up as protection, mid
a number of policemen were constantly oc
cu ring the defences. The attack was some
times on one side arid sometimes on the oth
er, but seemed to be Most violent on Eiolith
street, where there Was ti contintial v011i;37 of
stones and other missiles. The retiring
rooms were closed, and the lobbies so "rak
ed" by the mob ontside, - that the only safe
places were the boxes and parquette. A
stone, thrown throUgh an upper window,
knocked some of the oroaments of the
splendid chandelier.'
Towards the close however tt violent at
tack was made by the mob ou. one of the
'doors, .which was partly forced. A body of
Policemen, armed with their ~:iltort clubs.
sallied from it and secured a number of the
leaders, who were brought in and placed in
a large room under the Parquette with those
who had been previously arrested. These
rioters, to the number of thirty or forty, bat
tered down the partition of the room with
their feet, and attempted to crawl out at the
bottom by the holes so made. A strong
guard was therefore placed to watch them,
and no one, we believe, succeeded in mak
ing hi s escape. Front the confusion occa
sioned by the continued attack on the house,
we were unable to learn the names of any
of them.
After the play was Over, the noise being
apparently diminished somewhat, the audi
ence were allow e d to go out quietly by the
door nearest Broadway. The crowd was
not dense in the middle-of the street, a body
of troops having•just passed along, but the
sidewalks, f' ces and all other available posi
tions were rounged, and a shower of stones
was ke, p against the.windows. As we
reach • Broadway. a company of the Greys
ca. e round from Eighth street, and took
t eir position in front of the Opera Ilouse.
