Address INDIANAPOLIS SENTINEL -CO., Indianapolis, Ind WEDNESDAY, MAY 24. Will the Journal say whether cow feed is a legitimate state expense? The Democratic State Convention ot Kansas instructed yesterday for Hendricks. Henry Waiterboo, recognizing the weakness of tbe Tilden movement, makes an appeal to Gov. Hendricks and bis friends to come to the rescue, making the ticket Tilden and Hendricks. Mahomet bad better come to tbe mountain. Morton never dreamed that that old Venezuela matter would be brought to light, or be never would have brought Orth borne to run for governor. On tbe first page of the Sentinel there will be found some mighty Interesting reading on that subject. Tbe Society of the Army of the Potomac holds its seventh annual reunion at the Aeademy of Music, in Philadelphia, Tuesday, tbe 6th of Jane. Tbe oration will be delivered by Geo. John A. Dix, and tbe poem will be read by Mr. William Winters, of New York. The Sentinel regrets that its space forIda tbe gratification of tbe Journal witb double leaded vouchers of Morton's private bills that be caused to be paid out cf the stats treasury. But if it will put on a pair of spectacles we think that it may be able to see wbat It now appears to overlook. It will be noticed by an inspection of the complaint of 'General Fand" this morning, that it reaches over into the administration of Governor Baker; that no Touchers are found for cow feed, gas or -coal bii:, or any other private bills. All euch bills ceased to be presented to tbe etate treasury the dav Morton resigned. Poor Mortoii! Alabama could not give instructions for him, and the delegation is understood to be for Brlstow. If Morton can not carry the Southern negroes, where do bis friends hope bis strength will com from? Did not the Journal make a mistake when, it ald that Hendricks bad been withdrawn, meaning Morton all the while? This Centennial year is a terrible year on Republican politicians. Orlh is at Washington for a purpose. His complicity with some rascality, while chairman ot the committee of foreign affairs, demands bis attention there. He was not as hot as a limekiln when last beard from. When be gets through expla'oiog tbe rascality be may come to Indiana and explain wby be should bo mad governor. It is now generally believed ttat jJrietow's friends itarted t: e several unfounded reports of his corruption in order that by refutation promptly they might.be able to stifle the severer charges that might be brought against him. It cow appears that be was, just befor9 he was made secretary of the treasury, president of the Texas Pacific Construction Company, a genuine Credit Mobilier. swindle, and that he great! profited by bis sale of bocds, and

secdred the sales by pledges that a great

subsidy of Congress would mite the Donaa j indefinitely valuable. The Cincinnati Commercial lnsUts that the Sentinel's expose of Morton's pay ment of his cow feed and other private bills out of the state treasury, "commends the old war governor to the Republlcaca." Yes, the average the Republican does rather lean toward that sort of a man. Brlstow bets grcwn Immensely into favor with the Commercial since it was known that be was at the bead of a second rate Credit MoMlier swindle. The Courier-Journal spoils a capital hit in making Ma). Gordon a Democrat when he uttered his philippic against Morton. Ma), Gordon is not the kind of material the Courier-Journal supposes. If be should choose to say auythlcg of Morton tday, it would oet be lees severe than then. MaJ. Gordon bas always been a Republican, and helped to organize the party at Pittsburg. He knows what Mor ton's war record is, and bence he says now as he said then: He must stand -condemned before all who remember his relation to these measures. The Republican thief, liar and scoundrel, Bullock, ex-governor of Georgia, wbo re signed bis cfSce under fear of prosecu tion, but made tbe pretense that "political persecution was so evident that he cculd not hope to do any good in holding on to tbe office," and upon these false pretenses resigned his office of governor and fled the country, has been biding away among the bills of Canada to escape the prosecution that he so meritoriously deserved. By the aid of the telegraph we ara informed that this moral expounder of Republican principles has at last been brought borne under ar rest, upon the usual charge of robberytwo separate indictments charging him witb having robbed tbe state of Georgia ol over 11,000,000. Now, that the boss thief of tbe South has . been placed again upon American soil, which will the Republican party do, defend or prosecute? The -Ohio Democratic Convention. - The Cincinnati Convention of the Ohio Democracy took place yesterday with a tri umph of tbe Allen wing of the party and the defeat of the adherents of Thurman. The platform of principles adopted reflects the Western sentiment on the financial question, and is more carefully worded than tbe declaration of principles in the last campaign in that state. Tbe minority report, which was adopted by a majority of over one hundred, requests tbe del egates to tbe St. Louis Convention to cast the vote of that .state for Allen for president. As Governor Allen has devel oped no strength outside oftbat state, it will doubtless be only a complimentary vote on tbe first ballot, after which Ohio will most probably be cast for Governor Hendricks, whose position on the fin an cial question accords with the Ohio plat form on the repeal of the resump tion act and tbe section epposieg forced contraction or inflation, which form in dsed tbe material issues on the financial question now before the country. Tbe Riol Verdict. The Journal speaks of tbe coroner's in vestigation as a farce, aud says that the public made up its mind two weeks ago that Carter was assassinated by Democrats without a shadow of excuse. This poor dodge of tbe Journal to escape tbe odium of its part in Instigating the riot and to excuse its lying report ot tbe street ecenes, is about consistent with tbe usual infamy of that paper. Gen. John Coburn, the Journal's candidate tor Congress, and Mr. Peele, its candidate for the state Legislature, were present in the interest of the Republican party. All witnesses that could be found were ex amined. They had opportunity to develop the exact facts if there were any to screen their party, but in tbe wholesome lear of the penitentiary the witnesses would not come forward and perjure themselves ps was done upon election day. Such public opinion as was formed by the lying repoiti of the Journal may have con eluded that Democrats originated the riot, but tbe calm and solemn testimony of men under oath give an entirely different story. Here we have the decision of a jury who were sworn to bring in a true verdict. They were sworn to hear all tbe evidence that could be produced; they were in ses sion two weeks. Tbe jury was composed of an equal number ol Republicans and Democrats; so there can be to charge of partisan coloring to the verdict. We ask the citizen of Indianapolis to read and then judge ot the facts. The evidence has been published from day to day and sustains tbe verdict of the Jury. This yordict fixes tbe crime where it properly belongs. It was instigated by white men, inaugurated by negroes under the leadership of two Republicans who are named. Instead of belog an innocent martyr, Carter was actively engaged in the riot, shooting at a policeman who was striving to preserve peace. Tbe verdict as a whole completely exonerates tbe Democracy and fixes the responsibility upon the guilty parties. Let the citizen carefully note these facts. Judge Martindale and his indignation meeting started the movement. Inflam matory speeches were male. The negroes were inflamed by Incendiary appeals, and then men of no character were put forward to precipitate a collision. It was planned to have political effect to distract attention from the enormous frauds tbat were perpetrated. By design it was delayed until the polls were closed. If it bad com merued in the morning there would have been vastly loss negro Repeating during the day. There would have been fewer ngrces around the polls, disturbing legit-

ones. They used the negroes first, then set them to rioting. The whole programme in design and ex ecution was a dastardly crime, lor which the leaders of the Republican party are responsible. A few ot their dupes will be punished, but the real authors and abettors concealed themselves. But tbe shame of public indignation must rest opon tbe party in tbe city. They gained a triumph, but they debauched tbe ballet box and disgraced tbe city In doing it. Tbe blood of Carter is on their skirts. Tbe verdict of the public Is against them. The plotting and planning, the deliberate pur pose of this whole infamous proceeding should be duly considered by every voter of tbe state. Tbe design was to gain con trol of tbe city, because in times past tbe party of the state has succeeded by virtue of frauds perpetrated here. They wish to do so again this fall. The Journal openly proclaimed that carrying the city election was a party necessity. They went through blood to compass it. This accounts for tbe frauds, the riot, and the death of Car ter. The responsibility of the riots and tbe death of tbe negro rests with them. Morton's War Record. If there is one thlnz which tbe friends of Senator Morton like more tban another, It is an examination and ventilation of 'bis "war record. ' Therefore, let tne fcsentinei proceea with Its marvelous double-leaded exposures. Journal It gives the Sentinel pleasure to gratify the Journal and the friends oj Mr. Morton, and herewith is submitted a chapter from the record. It is in the shape ot a private bill of Governor Morton's, annexed to an order on tbe state auditor, now on file in tbe auditor's office. Indianapolis, Jan. 27, 1865. Mr. O. P. Mostoji.

Some time after tbe bill was rendered tbe following order under tbe signature of O. P. Morton was made upon the auditor, and tbe bill was paid out of the treasury of tbe state: State of Indiana, Executive Departxt, Indianapolis, February W, lSöä.

U. r. KdSTUK, uuveruur ui iuu. How does this sound in these days of Investigations! II it should turn out that Mr. Blaine as the chairman of some committee of Congress bad ordered such a bill as this paid by the sergeant-at-arms, wbat would become of his chance at Cincinnati? If while Brlstow was district attorney of Kentucky his cow feed bills had been charged up to tbe government, what would be bis stock in trade as a reformer? II Conkling had a similar record expoeed to euch petty peculation, wbo of bis friends would have tie courage to stand by blm? If Gov. Hsyes, of Ohio, had been causing to be paid out of tbe Ohio state treasury tbe expense of bis stables, would there be enough men in Ohio who would be willing to cast tbe vote of that state for him in tbe Cincinnati Convention? And yet the followers of Morton with barefaced impudence, claim that bis integrity is nnimpeacbable, and tbat be is a proper man to be made president. Where the Responsibility for the Elce llou Riot Heats. Yesterday two weeks ago the people of Indianapolis witnessed a pageant which will not eoon be forgotten. A band of musicians marched through our streets discoursing melodious strains, followed by a body of men escorting the remains ot Anthony Carter to their final retting place. Spectators lined the sidewalk?, carriage?, drawn by spirited steeds, clotbei in r!ch housings, followed the procession, and everything possible was done to make the occasion a noted one, and one long to be remembered. The Republican Central Committee, with a lavish hand, had furnished the necesiary funds to make tbe show a success, thinking they would place a part of tbe money collected from the whisky ring and dishonest office-holders whereit would do much good. Tbey understood the negro, and knew bow Impressible he was to pomp and parade, and believed tbat a dollar spent in getting up the negro display on the 7th day of tbe present month would bring big returns next October. Tbey remembered tbat when Stewart wa killed at tbe riot inaugurated and perpetrated by tbe Radical office-holding ring of this city the night Andrew Johnson attempted to speak lrom the balcony of the Bates House, tbe Grand Army of tbe Republic followed Stewart to the grave, with reversed arms, marching to tbfl strains of a funeral dirge. Tbe Republican Central Committee determined to bury Carter as Stewart was

buried, and believed that tbe money to do

It would be as well spent as if employed in hiring repeaters to vote early and often, or tbievea .- to , steal the bal lots ol Democrats from tbe ballotbox. So they made tbe investment and expect time to bring them a big return fcr the outlay. The Journal, tbe News, the Herald and the People (Tray, Blanche atad Sweetheart) joined in tbe cry tbat Carter was a martyr and Democrats hli assassins, and yelped themselves hoarse over the crime committed by men with white skins in refusing to be run over and trampled in tbe dust by rowdy negroes with clubs in their hands. When the riot was over these papers tried, by every method known to aa unscrupulous press, to' manufacture public sentiment against the Democracy by asserting an! reasserting tbat white Democrats bad assaulted, beaten and killed inoffensive black Republicans. When an Inquest was commenced on tbe dead body of Carter, a aisiinguisnea itepuoncan laywer was selected to attend the sittings of the Coroner's Court and see that everything possible was done to fas ten the responsibility for tbe riot upon tbe Democratic party. But notwithstanding the great parade two weeks ago; not withstanding tbe incendiary and malicious falsehoods ot tbe Republican press, and notwithstanding the close attention of an ex-Judge, an ex-congressajan and an exgeneral upon the daily eitiings or tbe coroner, the coroner's jury, composed of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans, has returned a verdict placing the responsibility of tbe riot upon two white Republicans and their negro dupe?. Ihis verdict takes Carter down from tbe elevation ot a martyr, and places him upon tbe level of a street brawler and rioter as be was. In all candor we ask was there ever a parallel to this outrageous attempt of a mendacious preis to fasten upon the De mocracy the responsibility for a riot wbicb a coroner's jury says was beguD, carried on and parpstrated by two white Republican rowdies and some hundreds ot negro followers? Tbe verdict ot the Jury is published in this morning's Sentinel. and fully corroborates the statement of the Sentinel made tbe morning after tbe riot. It should be carefaliy read by evf ry one wbo desires to be correctly Informed as to the cause ot the late disgraceful riot in our city and who were responsible for it This verdict is but a prelude to what will follow in due tlmo. Morton and the Platform Kicked by the Organ. Last week the Journal in a leading edi torlal reflected in severe terms on tbe Re publican members of Congress, who have been tinkering with the currency during the past five years. As Morton bas been recognized as the leader of tbe tinkering band bis last job being the resumption bill It was well understood that the Journal intended the article for him. Tbe way was thus prepared for tbe leader In yesterday's Journal on the currency ques tion, and tbe Sentinel was not surprised at the position taken by the organ. It will be remembered that for months prior to the state convention tbe Journal demanded an unconditional repeal of the resumption act. Nothing less would satisfy it, and it was generally supposed that tbe Journal's plank would be engrafted into the state platform. But Morton demanded tbat tbe Journal and the convention should aid his presidential aspirations, arjd they meekly obeyed and declared for only a partial repeal. This, however, was not acomplisbed without a delicate manipulation of the sole proprietor of the organ. His vanity was tickled by the persidency of the convention and tbe organ caased pip ing tbe tune which had been so familiar for months. This base surrender of tbe sole proprietor to Morton was com mented on at the time by the Sentinel, and his conduct created no little surprise among those who had read day after day tbe arguments in the organ in favor of an unconditional repeal. But there were those in tbe Republiaan party wbo bad little confidence in the ability ot Morton to keep tbe organ playing tbe tune set by the convention. Their fears have been realized, and the organ bas kicked over the platform and buried Morton in the ' ruins. So long as there was any possible hope for Morton's obtaining tbe Cincinnati nomination, the organ was silent on the question of repeal of the resumpMon bill. The Southern states have failed to instruct for Morton, and his star Is rapidly declining. Tbe Journal sees tbat be has not tbeghest of a cbancs for tbe nomination, and it basely betrays him, as It did tbe people at the Btats convention. The damaging factp, published in the Sentinel about tbe cow feed, fuel and gas bills, furniture bills of the war governor, have precipitated tbe action ol tbe Journal In throwing Morton overboard, for that virtuous paper sees that a presidential candidate, witb such a record, can cot be elected. Brlstow Beems to be its favorite, Judging from an interview ot Col. Thompson copied into yesterday'sjpaper. It was not an accident that an article condemning Morton's resumption bill should appear in the same issue. It is not surprising that tbe Morton crowd is mad. At Cincinnati the organs have all deserted him, and now his borne organ seems to be following suit. li tirnntCrai? It may be admitted tbat party necessity demanded tbat Grant Bbould do something to appease. Senator Cameron, and, if possible, eave Pennsylvania to tbe Republican party; but who on earth would have supposed tbat such turning and twisting would have been don9 to appease Simon. The Pennsylvania senator, seeing the Republican party on its last legs, demand) ere it diss, that tbe disgrace of having been kicked out of tbe Cabinet himself

should be wiped ont. Zack Chandler could not appease blm. No favors to personal friends would do. He did not want the place- himself, for with a tenure so short, be preferred to remain in

tbe : Senate. . So he - demanded tbat his son should be placed in tbe same position from wbicb be bad been driven It was a cruel revenge on the party. Cam eron was the first Republican secretary of war. He demands that bis son should be tbe last. It was atilumpn. To dispense with Taft was no easy Job. Only tbe attorney gen erali place would cult blm. Alter tbe flourish of his fiist appointment to tbe Cabinet, it would cot do to displace blm. 8o Pierrepont must be provided lor. A brilliant Idea flashed upon Grant. He would send blm to England. It would bs a good joke upon her Britanlc majesty for not letting na get hold of Winslow. Pierrepont bas been smirched in screening Babcock, revealing testimony and keeping the private secretary out of the penitentiary. He would therefore suit England, and to England be goes. This sudden movement in the Cabinet reminds us of the past unaccountable actions of Grant in Cabinet appointments, and suggests the question, Is Grant crazy? Morion's Corruption Record. Tbe Sentinel can cot combine all of Mr. Morton's trespasses upon tbe state treas ury under the head of his war record. Corruption record will do as well, for tbe sain e sort of pillaging went on after tbe war cloeed. "General Fund" is now publishleg in the columns of the Sentinel a list of vouchers, showing not only the alarming extravagance even in legitimate expenses, but also the vouchers paid out to men known to bo bangers-ou and henchmen ol Gov. Morton, without a scratch ot tbe pen to show for what it was paid, and also regular monthly vouchers for Gov. Morton's prlvatd expense?. We give, for example, the followiug, published in the Monday "General Fund" letter. It ia unpretending, and its full force escapes the attention of the general reader: February 22, 1865. No. 6126. Charles Ulazier, general fund, , governor's house 180 10 Yet this voucher, unpretending aa it looks, paid by the state treasurer on warrant ordered by Mr. Morloa himself, was for his COW FEED. We have also ethers like it, as follows: November 3, 1864. No. 6724. J. H. Rubs, general fond, coal for governor .. 375 08 December 5, lt4. No. 5'41. J. H.

Koss, general fund, coal for governor's bouse- 73 50 February V, 18t5. No. 6133 W. Q. Smith, general fund, coal for governor's house ......... 20 01 The Sentinel points out these vouchers simply to show that money was paid out regularly on tbe order cf Governor Morton for HISOWN PRIVATE EXPENSES. This was a crime against the state, which would send the officer of any corporation so trespassing on tbe funds committed to bis charge to thep9ni:entiary for embezzlement. Look at tbe matter, citizsns of Indiana. Governor Morton lived orl of the stats. Qe paid his cow ltei bills, bis coal bilip, his wood bills, bis furniture bills, bis tin ware and hardware bills, cutlery, and It the full facts of all tbe furnishing embraced in the "etc" accounts were fully written out tbey would doubtless comprise his grocery bills, beef bills, batter bills, and, in short, all his living expenses. This shameful conduct in a man placed in a position of public trust condemns him in the eight of every honest man. It is a disgraceful dishonesty, beneath the contempt ot every citizen, high or low. Will tbe Journal rejoice in this part ot the war record of the noble governor? Will it have the courage to defend these scandalous acts of Governor Morton? WHAT THE PAPERS SAY. JUST THE MAN. From tbe Jeffersonvllle Correspondent of the Courier-Journal. Tbe Hon. James Hopkins, father of Prof. E. S. Hopkins, superintendent of our public schools, was nominated by the Democrats of Marion county last week fcr the state senate. Mr. Hopkins was a member of tbe lower house last session, and made a hard-working and inductions public servant. He is Jus, tne right stripe of a man to suit tbe Indianapolis Democrats, being ot tbe Landers scbool. PREPOSTEROUS TELEGRAMS. From tbe Cincinnati Commercial, Ind. There ara preposterous telegrams from Indianapolis about Morton's strength in tbe Cincinnati convention. The only possibility of Morton's nomination was tbat be might bring into tbe convention the united South, and back up bis sectional strength witb four or five Northern states to begin witb, and put himself in a position to bargain with Pennsylvania. It Is already evident tbat Morton will not have more than one-half tbe Southern vote, and tbat he will net get a Northern vote outside of Indiana. Wbat is tbe nse of dying hard, or talking any more about it? PARTY DFBT PAYING. From the Cincinnati Commercial, Ind. Babcock tf.. a fa'.her-in-law who bad a p'.eaaot way if paying his debts at the cxpmseof other people. Bab. 's father-in-law is tbe United States Marshal of Northern Illinois, and got out of Miss Ada C. Sweet, pension scent, 55,0 0 for ber effi p, ami peruaps he'tumed it over to Blake ey. It senms tnat altr Grant exhausted tne listof his own relatives, and ot Mrs. Grant's relatives, and of all their acquaintances, be commenced with the favorites of bi favorltes, aod so on. This is tte sort of admtctitration tbat tbe Cincinnati convention is expected to lndors? with enthusiasm.

CARTER'S CASE.

A Long and Tedious Investigation ' Ended. THE LAST DAY. EVIDENCE OF SAMUEL If. GOULD MORE OV THE PARTICULARS OF THE RIOT AL. VANCAMP AND JAMES M'BRIDK THE VERDICT. From the Sunday Sentinel. It was announced tbat all tbe evidence in the Carttr inquest was in Friday evening, bet one more witness was found yesterday, who was able to tell some facts not before known, and bis statement was taken. It conclusively fixes the guilt of Al. Vancamp In inciting the riot, and is the final clincher which placesthe responsibility for the whole outrage where it rightfully belongs, on tbe Republican party of Indianapolis. ' Below we give the evidence of SAMUEL V. GOULD, who resides at 411 West New York street: "I was at the Fourth ward polls nearly all day. I found at 8 a. M. tbe polls were in possession of colored men who alone were voting. They did not object, however, to a white man voting, if he could crowd bis way in. About 100 colored men had clubs in their hands. About 11 o'clock I saw ibem chasing a negro In a buggy, wbo, I understO'xJ, wanted to votet.ie Democratic ticket. They pulled him out and got blm away. I next saw a white man ruuning from about filty colored men. He bad a cut in the back of his bead, lrom which the blood was ruuning over his coat collar. T.-.e next I taw was about 5 p. m. Saw AI. Vancamp ride down among tbe colored rr.eu. A crowd gathered arouud him. lie said something to them, and they started off In squad of five, ten and fifteen. When they pot across Missouri street Mjtne of tbeoa commencsd running cast cn Weshlngtor. I AM POSITIVK IT WAS AC VANCAMP. I asked him since wbat be said to them to make them leave the Fourth ward polls. He said he tried to conviuca them that there was no fass down in tbe Sixth ward, and advised them not to gc, but I noticed ttat. thty staited immediately alter be talked to them. I inquired of one of tbem where tbey were goin, and be said tbat there was a riot in the Fifth ward. I was at the Fourth ward polls till after tbey closed. Just before they closed a Democratic wagon drove up full of men. The negrces to tbe number of fifty gathered around it, some ot tbem saying, 'We can not stand that.' Tbere was a disturbance of some kind, but I can not tell the nature of it. The wggon drove away soon afterward. I do not think tbe men bad time te vote. I saw Vancamp of and on all day at the Fourth ward polls, but only saw Lini once on Horseback. I left after tbe polls closed and come to the store, No. 61 West Washington street. I bad been tbere but a few minutes when I saw a crowd ot colored men running by, going to Illinois street, saying: 'Come on, boy to the corner.' They nearly all bad clubs. One ot them had'a swingletree. One dropped a razor; another one picked it up and handed it to him about tbe time the lass man reached the corner. I think tbere was about one hundred of tbem. I beard several shots,, and saw mrst ot tbe colored men runniBg back. I saw one colored man wbo was running from two policemen. He fell in front o 1 9 West Washington street. He bad a revolver, and some one took it from bim while be was cown. He did not seem tobe much hurt. Tbe police took bim diagonally across tbe a.reet, going eastward. 1 aid not see anytbimg more of bim. I was not acquainted witb deceeed."' THE VERDICT. REPUBLICANS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RIOT. Tne case wa? giveu to the jury, and after two hours' deliberation the following verdict was returned: We, tie undersigned jurors, impanceled and sworn oi the 4 b dy of Mv, in the ytarlS76, in tbe township ot Center, in the county of Marion, by James U. Fuller, coroner ot said county, to inquire and true presentment make lu wbat manner and by wbat means Anthony Carter, whose bod? was found attbeSurglcal In8'. tut ein tbe city of Indianapolis, on the 4th day of May, 1S76, came to bis death. After having beard tbe evidence and examined tbe body, we do find tbat deceased wa killed while engaged in a riot; that the net was inaneurated by white men,, and carried into tffsct by colored men under the leadersbip or white men, the two most prominent ol whom were AL. VANCAMP AND JAMES M'bRIDS. The motive had in view by these men in conducting and directing the colored men from tbe Foorth ward to tbe Sixth ward polls, armed witb bludgeons, clubs, rocks, knives and razors, cannot easily bo determined by the jury, but tbe motives of the colored men can be reached by a consideration of their actions in creating and carrying on the riot. The jury is furaberof the opinion, and tbat opinion is overwhelmingly supported by tbe evidence, that tbe colored men during tbe entire day were prepared for a riot. Wbether the motive tor this riot t rlginated with tbe colored men lor a special purpose aod end the jury are unable to determine. That the colored men were so armed during tbe entire day at tbe Fourth ward polls does not admit of a doubt, because the evidence shows tbat fact conclusively. It is not known to the jury who killed ABtaony Carter, but the evidence Introduced plainly shows that deceased was stabbtd by some person unknown to the Jury, with wbom he (Carter) was in deadly comoat. It is in evidence tbat Carter was one of tbe rioters, or participated in tbe riot, by discharging firearms at Policeman John Landtrs and other persons whose names are unknown to tbe jury.
