THE MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, AUG. 20 i A WHITES WON'T EVEN LET THEM WORK IN SPRING FIELD NOW. WOULD GET RID OF BLACKS Employers of Negro Labor Are Being Threatened by a Flood of Anony tnous Letters, and the Trouble Doesn't Seem to Subside. CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-A dispatch to the Tribune from Springfield, 111., says: Employers of negro labor in Spring field are being threatened by a flood of anonymous letters, which has been trowing in volume daily, owing to the recent race riot. For the first few days it was thought that the letters were the work of boys or irresponsible individuals, but yesterday the condi tion of affairs was found to justify an investigation by Governor Deneen. A delegation of negroes visited Gover nor Deneen and promised to co-operate with the law-abiding whites inves tigaintg the letters. , , Furthermore, secret service officials axe here trying to run down the writ ers of the letters. There is a belief that there is an organization of some sort "behind the sending of the letters. As a result of the race war bar ter shops and hotels are without ne gro help and Springfield lacks its usual quota of bottblacks. A census f the negroes is being taken to de termine how many of them are out f employment Members of the Seventh Ilinois in fanty comment on the fact that ap parently respectable people in talking to them about the situation say dis passionately that "As soon as you fellows are gone, we will have to get j rid of these blacks. Springfield must ! be a white town." The Seventh Regiment will leave for Chicago tomorrow If present con ditions continue, but there is a possi bility that it will be held here until Thursday to enable the grand jury to return more indictments as a means of quieting the disorderly element. The grand jury made no returns yesterday, but a total at least of 90 indictments is probable before it .completes its la bors. The cases against more of the nen indicted are said to be clear. ARTIST AT HOLDUP. Mode Wineman Of Chicago Just Mis- ses the Trouble. CHICAGO, "Aug. 25. A dispatch to the Tribune from Butte, Mont., says: "The Quadrangle Club of Chicago, will be the richer because of the dis aster which overtook the Yellow stone tourists yesterday when they were held up and robbed by highwayman. Its gain will . i through the addition of more scenes to the Yellowstone collection now gathered together by Mr. Mode Wineman, a member of that club, artist and lover of the wildwood. Mr. Wineman, who already has won fame by the Yellowstone park pictures he has secured was continu ing his eleven day walk through the park, when in the canon he stumbled n;ton the holdup scene. His first no- rifkation was when he saw the mes- senger rushing back for help. He hurried forward in time to gain some impressions of the aftermath of a highway robbery if not to be in on the real action. Mr. Win-eman's tale of his experi ence was as follows: "I had been searching for beautiful views of the park on an eleven 'day walking trip when in the heart of the wilderness two men galloped wildly past me shouting, 'Holdup ahead Don't turn back.' I was determined to push formard and took to the thick ets. "By the time I had arrived at the scene of the holdup the robber had fled, pursued by the soldiers who had passed me on the way. When I saw the turn of the road where the work had been done, there was a group of 125 persons, hysterical and frigh tened, bemoaning the loss, of all the valuables they had carried. "Empty wallets, handbags, money, checks, baggage checks, railroad tick ets, hand mirrors and powder puffs, left in a pile showed how completely the robber had done his work. "When the soldiers began pursuit of the robber, I started a long walk over the mountains where I could reach a telegraph station and inform my fiiends in, Chicago of my safety."
