President Schurman was frank
telling your correspondent a day or t
ago that he favored giving to tiie various
tribes the largest possible measure of

thought the several tribes could ad m in

penal institutions, etc., but did not
believe it possible to allow tiis natives
to paiticipute in the genoral govern

“ How could they govern tho islands,

Guard, arrived here late this evening,
arid will endeavor to preserve order.
Forty miners from the Herrin mines
left th a t place for this city this even
ing, armed witli Krag-Jorgensen rifles
deteimiued to assist the white miners,
should their services he required.
Trouble has been brewing ever since
the militia was recalled hy Governor
Tanner lust Mon-lay, since which time
the white miners Iiave refused to allow
the negro miners to come into town.
Today 13 negroes marched into the
town and opened fire on a crowd of
whites. The whites returned the fire
promptly, ami a running fight ensued.
The negroes, closely followed by the
wihtes, scutteted, some running up the
main street, the remainder startin g
down the railroad trauk. Here tiie
worst execution was done. After the
fight was over, four dead bodies were
picked up, and another man was found
mortally wounded. They were taken
to the city hall, where the wounded
man was given medical treatm ent, ami
an inquest was held over the dead ones.
Later, near tho Brush mines, in a n o th
er par t of tiie city, two other dead bod
ies were found.
The killed are: Rev. O. T. J . Floyd,
Huso Brudley, John Blaok, Henry
Brunnum. Two unidentified.
Mortally wounded: Sim Cummings.
The mayor has taken every precau
tion to pievent further trouble, and
none will occur unless the negioea
make an attack.
Spuerintendent Donnelly, of the
Brush mines, where the negroes reside,
repot ts that the negroes aro worked up
into a fienzy, and, while lie is doing
all in his power to hold them in
check, ho is afraid he oatinot do so
in noli longer, and th at unless the m ili
tia appears shortly further trouble m a r
be looked lor.
Trouble has existed here, off and on,
for over n year, but no fatalities oc
curred until Ju n e 30. when a passen
ger train on the Illinois Central rail
road was fired into and one negro wo
man killed. These negroes were on
their way to the mines, having oonre
from i ’anii. A short time afteiwarii a
pitched battle ensued between the
union and nonunion forces during
which time tiie dwellings occupied by
the union negroes were burned. Sev-
erul arrests were made, and the parties
are in jail at Marion on the charge of
murder, awaiting trial.
