COMMISSIONER'S COURT.-
AFTERNOON SESSION.
At three o'clock lire Court reassembled
and began to hear the
TESTIMONY OF MAYOR HUFF.
Mayor Huff, smorn —l nm Mayor of this
city. 1 was in this city on election day
anil for several days previous to the elec
tion.
Witness was asked if be apprehended
any disturbance at the election ; if so
why, and what stops lie took to prevent
it.
This question was objected to by the
couucil for the defense, as baying too
wide a range. Col. Whittle stated the
ground of objection in a very clear man
ner.
H Col. Farrow replicU. entering into a
somewhat elaborate argument, to show the
admissibility of the question, and what he
meant to elicit by it.
lie was responded to by Col. Whittle in
Close legal argument, taking strong grounds
against the admissibility of the question.
The Court decided in favor of the District
Attorney, and the examination proceeded.
Mayor Huff continued —Personally, I
had no serious apprehensions, officially I
had. I have various means of getting in
formation, some of which I cannot Btatc
in this or any other Court; for instance, I
have my detectives. For a few days pre
vious to the election I heard the matter
discussed on the streets and in my office.
In addition to this I saw publications
made in the papers which led me to sup
pose that threats had been made. I ap
prehended that either the blacks or whites
would attempt to take the polls and hold
them. The scenes witnessed here two
years ago created such apprehensions. I
had been familiar wih the feelings of the
blacks and whites, and had been ap
proached by blacks and whites regarding
the election. I published an order here in
the papers. The order was published at
the instance of gentlemen here in the city,
some of whom now sit in my presence It
was done as a precautionary measure,
file here stifled the substance of that order,
that restricted the cai lying of weapons on
the day of election, and ordered the
closing of all the saloons] My rea
sons for al'.udlng to fire-arms were
that I had been told that black
parties from the country were coming in
armed on the day of the election. The or
der was to prevent that more than any
thing else—to prevent ignorunt parties
from the country coming here with their
pistols, I placed upon the police force
thirty-odd men extra, above the regular
force. The regular force consisted of
thirteen men. This number was raised to
forty or forty-five on that day. Ido not
remember ihe exact number. The extia
police was put on some ten days previous
to the election. I am not positive about
■ the time ; but it was some eight or ten
days. No other precautionary steps were
taken that I now recollect. I saw the fence
being put up the evening before the elec
tion. It was not put up by me but by the
Judge of Ordinary, I think, or under his
orders I came to the polls next morning
about six o'clock, or a little after, My pur
pose was to be there at six. I had order
ed the police to be there at that hour. I
came with a special squad of eight men.
The extra force was ordered to be sta
tioned near the Presbyterian Church. My
instructions to the special force were that
l they should preserve order. They were
■ to be at the Court House subject to my or
der. My instructions were that they
should not interfere unless there was a dis
turbance-difficulty, or a riot, or some
thing of the kind. I mean that they were
not to interfere in any manner —take
charge, control or direct, unless there was
a disturbance. They were to preserve or
der and to arrest any parties who commit
ted a breach of the peace in any way. The
' polls were opened an hour or more after I
arrived. There were not many about the
precinct when I got there. There were,
I suppose, about fifty whites and as many
blacks. The fence was not there when I
arrived. I don’t *emember to have seen
any portion of it. I did not observe very
closely. Among tfose who were there
I recognized Col. Whittle, Col. Bacon,
Maj Boss and Mr. Smith. I was not on
spy duty and did not take special notice.
I saw Mr. Theodore Ellis. There we.e
several colored men there. The}’ seemed
to be mostly from the country. Nothing
uuusual occurred before the opening of
the polls. I was not present when the
polls were opened. They had probably
been opened fifteen minutes when I walk
ed around. I here was some little diffi
culty, I believe, in opening the polls,
about securing managers of the election
1 saw the sheriff in his office some time
during the day. I saw no deputies. No
one seemed to be in cuarge. No direct
objection to the presence of the police
force was made to me. Some remarks
were made about tL They remained then
near the Court-house. Sometimes they
illuton tfculi) lent uprise.
mixed with the crowd. Once they were
called on, 1 think, by the malingers
to preserve order. 1 was not present
at the time. 1 beard no objection to
the presence of the police front tin: man a
gers. They did uot call on mo and I did
not consult them. No objection was made
to the presence of the police. 1 was spo
ken to by two or three gentlemen who
asked that there be no interference My
order seemed to have created the impi -s
--sion that I meant to interfere. At Hut
time the disturbance broke out l was)
standing in the crowd about lil'n-eii f< et
front the voilng place, between the win
dow and the Stubblefield House. I nas
down in the crowd of men. but bad been
there but a very short time. I bad just
left the Court room after a consultation j
with some gentlemen. Had been down
some 3or 5 minutes 1 Imd called some;
gentlemen to the window to look down
upon the crowd.. 1 saw that a diffimiliy
was imminent and must come soon. The
whites and blacks had met and there
seemed to lie a great struggle at the polls |
as to which should vote, I called the at
teutiou of the gentlemen to it. and pro
posed to go down and draw away the
blacks until arrangements could he made
for voting. There were more blacks than
whites—a great many more The color
cd people were conlined to the rear most
of the morning, but had made a sort <>l
Hank movement and were coming from
two directions. Asa general rule the
whites approached from Mulberry street
It is difficult t > describe the scene. The
struggle between the men scented to he to
see which should get pie polls—which
vote while it was not openly riotous.
Among the persons I consulted were Cot.
Nutting, Col. llolt, Capt Drown, Air.
Rogers and Col Whittle. I remember
these live. 1 left the window and went
down in the crowd and asked two colored
men to go with me and get the colored
people to stand aside until some plan could
be arranged by which the votingcould pro
ceed peaceably. While in the crowd try ing
to get them to fall back. I saw what X
thought to be a clod of dirt thrown. It
struck over the heads of the crowd, and
seemed to break and fall by the window.
Immediately after I saw what I supposed
to be a brick or brickbat coming in the
same direction, which struck very near
where the first did. I was engaged at the
time with a white man and a colored man
who seemed struggling to sec who should
get on the terrace. Dr. Collins was the
white man. I don't know who the col
ored man was. I asked Dr. Collius to
assist me, and we were endeavoring to get
the colored men to fall back when the last
brick that I noticed struck the house. The
The firing commenced immediately, al
most, after I saw the last brick. At first
I heard one or two pistols, then a rapid
indiscriminate firing. I saw no one with
a pistol at that time. 1 saw four or five
with pistols after the thing was over Two
of the police came to me with pistols they
had captured. One colored man and one
white man have since called to get the
Yiistols. 1 don’t remember their names. 1
think the police captured four or five pis
tols. My instructions were to keep them.
I saw a half dozen shots after 1 got
into Mulberry street, hut can't say who
fired them. They were shootingindisci i 111-
inately without taking sight, and without
regard to consequences I saw two men
running towards the Lanier House, look
back occasionally, and fire as they ran. I
don’t know who .they were. It mbs im
possible to recognize anybody in so short
a time. I think one hundred and fifty or
two hundred shots were fired. 1 know
some were hurt. I found one dead man
in a little house in the rear of the Court
house. I saw a white man who was kill
ed—saw him us he fell. His friends took
him up and carried him off. Col Ader
hold ran across the street and called out
that they weresliooting their iiictnls [Col
Farrow here asked that a suhpccua he is
BUed for Col. Adcrhold ] Ihe policemen
were still on duty at the time ol the dis
turbance. I only had eight of the regular
police out that day, together with their
officers. They were a chief. Martin. Lieu
tenants Taylor and Hurley, and Messrs
Lowenthal, Alley, Garfield, Bums. Cattle.
Craig and Wood. There were thirty or
thirty-five men up at the church. J can’t
give their names. That was the extra
force. I think I saw Mr. Ellis during the
morning 1 don’t know what he was do
ing at the commencement of the melee. I
saw Mr. Cherry during the morning—
can’t say what time. J don’t remember to
have seen any weapons. I saw Mr. KosS.
I don’t know what he was doing at the
tirno of the riot. I do not remember
having seen Henry Adcrhold until thirty
minutes after the riot. 1 saw Dr. Collins.
He and a colored man were struggling for
a place on the terrace. I saw a pistol be
tween them, but don't know whose it was
I tried to get hold of it and got my finger
hurt aud let it go. I don't know which of
the two got it. I asked Dr Collins to go
with me and try and get tiie colored pec
pie to fall back. lie and I and a colored
man were thus engaged when the firing
commenced. I did not see James Nelson
then. I think I saw George VV. Gustin
during the morning. I am not positive
about the time. I don't remember to have
seen him about the time of the firing. 1
saw Matt Thornton early in the morning.
I did not see him with any weapons, i
do not know who tore the fence away. I
did not see any one firing that I recog
nized. lam not willing to sw ear Unit any
particular man did any shooting. I saw
a great many firing. I have not heard
any man state that he did any of the shoot
ing. I had no police on duty except the
eight, with their officers. There were no
persons about pretending to act as police
men, to my knowledge. None were there
assuming to act as policemen without my
knowledge that lam aware of. After the
riot, 1 called out the special police which
I had sworn in the evening before, om
posed of the volunteer companies of tie
city,
The hour of adjournment having ar
rived, the further examination of Mayor
Huff was postponed until this morning
Col. Farrow told him to have all the cap
tured pistols discharged and brought into
Court, and cautioned him to be very sure
that none of them were brought in loaded.
He also told him to furnish the names of
the regular police who were on duty ; a! o
the names of the extra police, a I the
names of the special police also.
The Court then adjourned until ten
o'clock to-day.

WiLMisoroN, N. C., October 31.—Last j
Saturday the Grand Jury for the Suporior
Court of this county, now in session,
threw out ,i bill of indictment for libel
against the Journal, a Democratic paper
of the city. Monday, the Solicitor, a Re
publican, informed the Judge, also a Re
publican, that lie wished to send anew
bill, and asked him to send for the jury,
and to instruct them specially in relation
to the law of libel, lie also informed the
judge that the parties against whom he
wished to proceed were the editors of
the Wilmington Journal. The jury was
brought into Court, and the Judge charged
the matter set forth in the indictment,
then exhibited in Court, constituted libel,
and that if a true bill were not found the
jurors would commit perjury.
The alleged libelous matter is us fol

ical ideas of light and wrong it is right to
! turn Northern convicts out of the peni

! and notorious thieves, found guilty by a
; jury after a fair trial, but it is all wrong to
turn out young Southern hoys of tender
I age, who, by promise of mild treatment,
were induced to plead guilty before a
scoundrel like Judge Bond, without any
trial at all It is all right in Radical eyes
to pardon the Pennsylvania thief, but it
would be ail wrong to pardon the North
Carolina Ku Klux. so-called. The grown
man Yerkcs goes free, the hoy Ramseur is
in a felon’s cell. Can North Carolinians
reconcile it to their manhood or to their
consciences to vote tor Grant V If Grant
is beaten radicalism will die ; if Grant is
re-elected radicalism will live.”
Yesterday afternoon the jury again came
into the court and were lectured by the
Judge in a manner considered highly in
sulting for having taken no action on the
bill Up to the present time the jury
have not found the bill. The affair has
created considera le excitement in the city
