colored men to work ut $1.25 day, n
drunken mob, armed with revolvers,

compelled the men to quit work. From

ceeded to the brick yard Of Dith 4 Co.,
where seven colored men were imployed,
compelled a suspension Of all work and
drove the colored men over the river.
The mob then numbered several hun
died, and was addressed by the mayor Of
Atchi son and others, urging peace and
order, but without avail. The colored
drivers of teams were compelled to turn
back over the bridges, and the colored
porters at the various freight depots,and
other darkeys in town, were hunted up
and sent over into Kansas. The authorities
finding all their efforts to quiet the mob
useless, telegraphed to sheriff Spencer of
st. Joseph to come and exercise his au-
thority, but he refused to come. The
mob now have possession Of East Atchi-
son, and defy the law and militia.
