of the order from the War Department., concern

country, III order to avoid the impending dfati'
/ @. p. Bradley, Superintendent OF the Chlcago
Police prepared to enforce the order ia all cases
] that might cone within his jurisdiction The
order was received yesterday afternoon, about
/ Ave o'clock, and via be found in the telegraph
column Of tie Times this morning Between
that hour and sunset qaite number Of men IN
this cfty not liking the appearance Of things mil

or some othor portion OF the globe where draft

uuloEunatey tor these wouId-be exearsionIsts
/ the yigilaut eye OF the newly constituted Pro
vest Marshal was upon them. Learning that
there would probably be stampede, at night,
By the Michigan Central and Michigan Southern
Railroads, Captain Bradley took the precaution
to have 2 posse of his neu stationed at each
depot a short time before the departure of the
eyoning train.
Capt Nelson OF the first Preeiut police was
stationed with a posse of the police at the Mieh
rsn Central depot, while Sergeant Beade had an
inferior force al the Michigan Southern depot
Ateight o'clock both trains were entered, and
esszaii ,.itssizzs had of ali oaigoing pss5en-
gers. This resulted ia the arrest of thirty men,
who had tickets TO Detroit, and who were at
once taken IN custody and marched under guard
to tho Central police station, for futhar examiua-
ton. a few Of those arrested, however, were
soon discharged, having furnished satisfactory
evidence of their loyalty. Most Of them, how
ever, were deemed guilty of attempting to es-
cape from the jurisdiction of the United States,
contrary to the order from the War Department.
They Were accordingly confined in the county
Jail Tor the night, and this morning will be con
yeyed to Camp Douglas, sworn into The service,
and made TO do military ddty for the term speci-
fed in tle order for the draft The following are
the names Ct the offenders, together with the
amounts Of money taken from them:

Two prspeIlers, the Galena and Acme, left
this port yesterday afternoon, loaded with pas
ssngers, most Of whom are supposed TO be on
their way to smother cline. A tug was dis
patched last evening in search Of these propsl- |
leTs, with orders to bring them 10, and take in
custody al persons unable to give satisfactory |
reasons for their departure. This game, how
ever, viii be blocked to-day as a tug carrying
q six-p9und cannon, win be stationed at the en-
senger boat and vessel that passes out
Our citizens may as well bring their minds to
realization of the fact that Chicago is virtually
uaIcr martial lal0 Captain Bradley is nos
clothed with The powers of o provost marshal, |
and IN future no male citizen between the ages |
Of eighteen and forty-fve years will be permit |
ted TO leave the city, or on any route leading |
cast, or on sny Of the lake boats, without pass
ffcm the proper source
We find that this sudden arrest of fagitiyes, in |
conformity 10 the new order, will operate as
complete check upen all attempts to escape from !
the country 70 avoid the draft. The authorities |
are in earnest Gbopt this matter, and such cow
srdly snesking as was manifested last night and |
during tie whole Of tie past week VIII be at
once stopped
This running away from duty has been prae- |
icsd 10 most Instances by wealthy men, while |
the poor men have been left to become the vic |
lims of the draft In future there viii be no |
more sneakilg, no more running awsy, no mat |
ter what may be the wealth of the individual
The orders from the War Department., sus- |
pending the writ Ofhabcas corpus, and providing |
for the arrest Of persons guilty of treesonable |
or attempts to leave the country, viii
also be found in our telegraphic column.
