2360 - L. Jan. 26; ed:4/2 - When the draft was anticipated in this city,
ten boxes containing 200 muskets were sent here as a precaution against
riots. They were stored in the upper story of the customs louse build-
ing. Later they were shipped to Lieutenant Colonel Whitely, Allegheny
arsenal, Pittsburgh. It is a safe indication that Cleveland is out of
draft. (2)
