MORE NLOODSIHED. Bvectat Dispateh to The Tridbune. MoNTREAL, April BO.—As fndicated in the dispatch sent to THE TrinuNA at an early honr {his morning, the fears of trouble arising out of the concert given last night by tho Hackett No Burrender Lodge for the defrayatl of the expenses of the brethren now in jatl were real- red, Durlng tho progress of the concert sev- enal spceches wero made. The Worshipful Master, {n s address, called on all Orangemen to proclaim thefr rights by turning out lu pro- cesslon on tho 12th of July next. ke was fol- Jowed by the Rev. Mr. Daudiet, Claplain of the Order, In a very Inflamna. tory speech. At nbout hall-past 10 Information was scnt to the hall that the Irish Cathollc Unionists were congregating in the yicinlty of Grifintown. The Chafrman advised those who had to go home by that directlon to keep together as much a8 possible, and to be well prepared to meet thele enemies. At 10:45, the concert being over, the erowd Ieft for home. By the tfme those golng cast Iind reached Wel- Tingtan-street bridge their number had dwiudled down to between thirty and forty. Just as the party crossed thobridgethey were attacked by 300 or 400 Catholfe Unlonists who had been Iying In walt for them, Jumes Callfzan, one of the at- acking party, was immediately shiot dend. A woman named Meehan, who was passing, re- coived several bullets in the leg. A mau nomed Mullen was also serfously wounded. Alter the shooting subslded tho body of Callizan was re- moved to the lodge-room of the Irish Catholfe Unlonists, on Colborno street, of which de- ceased was & member, His' mother and sister visitlng the lodge-room, tho scene was heart- rending. A hack passing the brdgo at the time of tho row was fired into, and one of its oceupants, a Mr. Lang, recelyed s bullet in tho neck and another fn the thigh. 1lts companlon, Miss Turnbull, escaped injury. Thecab was completely riddled with bullets. Langlsnot a Briton nor an Orangeman, and wasnot at tho coucert. Conslderable exclte- ment prevalls to-day, both in Grifintown and Polnt 5t. Charles, nud varlous versfons of the disgrace ] riotlniz and its consequences are cur- rent. Some reports say that at least teu of the attacking party were wounded. The pumber of tha attacking wparty was 0 largely In excess of the ate tacked that tho latter became nhsorbed in the crowd, and In the darkuess it was impossi- blo_to distinguish frlend from foe. It s gon- erally feared that the trouble {s uot at an end, and may be renewed at any moment. The Boardof the Corn Exchango passed the follow- ing resolutlon to-day: Retoleed, That the members of this Assoclation vlew with indlegnised alatm the numerons faction fghts which bave of late disgraced this city, and they desire to linpress upon the City Council tho neceasity of taking urgont nod Imparative steps 1o repress the growing evil and bring the offenders to Justice, without respect to raco or creed, Thls afternoon a fury was impancled to hold aningtest on the body of Collizan. Dra, Me- Donnell and Shieridan grave the result of thelr cxaminntion of the body, which wns as follows: ‘That only one bullet-wound was found on his rmon. which was situated on the right side,of e ‘head, just above the ear. ' Beveral sinal brulses were obscrved on the face, which must have been tho result of a fall after belug shot.

BULLY BELL. The Rallennd Commisloner of Ohio Ate tempts to Choke the lireath Out of & Senn- tor an the Floor of the Senate at Colnmhna —An Enarmous Sensation In the Democrat- 1o Camp=0Other Peacardings. Bpecial Diepated to The Tridune, CIRCISKATY, O,y April 30,—There was an ex- citing scene on the floor of the Ohio 3enate to- dny, growing out of a little misunderstanding In the Democratic family. The Hon. Willlam Bell I8 Rallrord Commissioner of Ohlo, at n salary of 83,000 a year. [Ilis son enjoys the po. sition of Chief Clerk in the office at o salary of $1,600, It happens that, in makiog up the Ap- prapristion bill, which Is belng prepared with a view to the fall campalgn, soung Bell's salary was cut down €300, The elder Uell, who has been Beeretary of State, and Is gencrally under- stoa Lo have claims upon the party for the hest offices golng, was on tne floor of the Benate to- day, loboying against the reduction. Senator Forrest, of Cinclunatl, spoke in favor of cutting the salary down. He sald the oftice of Railroad Commissloner was practicatly of no account; that Bell and bis son were never to be found at thelr post, and that the work was left to a boy, who was usually drunk, Soon after Forrest had finished o conversatfon was heard {n that part of the hall, and, the next minute, Forrest was seen Iying on the floor with Bell gripping his throat, Senators rushed fn and’ separated the combaotants and n sccne of ereat confuston followed. Several members calied out to huve Bell arrested, and the Sergeant-at- Arms took him in charge. Ho was afterwards relensed. Fotrest, whose neck bears witness to gevero choking, says lig was rising from his chalr when Nell grabbed him, and, taking bim ot a disadvantage. threw him down. When order hind been restored, Senator Marsh offered n tesdlution, which was adopied. appofuting Commiittes of three to investimate the matter. It s likely to resnlt in expelling Bell from office. The Leglslature now has four fuvestiza- tlons on hand, and the usual thne for adjourn- ment s long since past. The Democratic managers in the Statc aro heginning to feet nervous abont the approaching campalg. Anntlier account of the altack is as follows: Mr. Bell appronched the Scnator and asked what hie meant by that speech, adding that the appropriastion was now lower than it was under the previous Administration. Forrest retorted that the oflicc was o sinccure, and should be ahollshed; that he hind been there several times, and never found tho Commnls. sioner or any onv else in, except once, when he found a young man who he presumned was his son, the'clerk, who was drunk. To this Bell gave the lle. Forrgst then jumped up, when they clinched, the Senator reaching the floor first, with the Commissioner on top, ‘The Ber- geant-nt-Arms thew separated the warriors, and requested Bell to leave the chamber, which he dlfl‘ No one hind ebgerved the tali, and oll were only wnade known ol tho disturbauco when thoerash came. Inamoment the excitement beeame Intense, all the members Jeaving thelr scats, Members in the llousc, reporters, and attaches {n the varlons Departinents rushed in. The Senate found it necessary to adfourn. A note was sent to the Commissioner suinmoning him before u Comnities of the Senate, who are tuinvestizate, Mambers in the Benate clalin that Dell fiud no right to como In the Senate to trv to throttle the speech of ninemnber, and threaten to retaliatc by introducing n_ bill abolishing the office and throwing Bell and his son out altogether. ‘Tho affair hay created a most profound scnsation, It is the only theme discussed to-night.

A new comedy, embroidered with loeal al- Innlons, was presented Monday and fast evening at thie theatre under the captivating title of **Our Aldermen." It 'ls not a pretentions effort, the principal aim being to satirize, In 8 vein that [a by 10 means fesoctions, some of the foibles incident to political existence. Thero I8 A thread of comedy plot ranning through the four scte, bntit s occasionally lost eight of, the dramatiat's object aeeming to be rather to point & morsl than adorn & tate. The volce of the local political preacher in distinctly heard In° the work thronghout. The satire is at onco appreclated, and the spectator is bound to recognize in the perannages familiar forms, ae well as in thol dlalogue— which fs often spley andZ pertinent—familiar refercnces to cxisting evila. The most obvio fault of the plece appears to be that the story Is aimost crowded ount of sight to make rnom for “Vlncal hite,"—a very questionable proceeding. particularly nt & time ‘when political exciteroent is not running very high, and when he that runs may read all sorts of cleverly-turoed sarcaems on local corroption, The newapaper, in thess days, nees up 81l this kind of ammaunition pretty thoronghly, snd you can hear the echoes from every gamin and fdler on the street-corner, -—80 that there i2 no nov- elty In heating it ropeated in our places of amuse- ment.
