The feeling prevails that as long s thomilitia remains thero will beno more lawlessness, It is learned thac unless the strike is settled before they are called home the depredations will borenewed as soon as their backs are turned. Tho feeling among the strikers is intensely bitter, but they are careful to commitno overt act and content themsclves with scowling at the wilitia and muttering in uniutelligible tongues, From 9 o'clock yesterday morning until 10 o'clock at night an unshaken line of for - about one inten of whom could speak rgelish, tiled around the bier upon which the bodies lay.

In the Mount Fleas- ant bank there is a large list of depositors whose savings range from 800 to $5,000. Of this money very little has been withdrawn, How these people live without drawing money it is difficult for Americans to under- stand, o those who have no money the labor organizations furnish small sums,~ The strike s likely to continue indefinitely, e ILLINOXS DRAINAGE LAWw, A Big Mecting Protests Against Any Attempt at Repeal.
