During the whole day regiments Of militia
continued TO pour In from various sections Of
the State and were stationed at The most
threatened points Deep feeling against the
militia was manifested all the time Every
now and then stones were thrown at them
whenever opportunity afforded This became
SO annoying that as far as practicable the police
were placed next to che people. Epithess were
shouted and threats were not wanting. whether
IN earnest or for che purpose Of terrifying the
boys in blue could not be told Wait till to-
| night Walt till we get God and drunk.

were followed by vOiley and several shots
from the Calling gun stationed there
AT 9.2o O'Clock word was received at general

The citizens COMMITTEES met on Monday az
the Chamber Of Commences and resolved TO adj
/ wise the withdrawal Of the troops and the an
pointment Of a special police force, it being the
sense of the meeting that the presence Of the
militia appeared to act as menace 10 the now
| qnieted mob. and that the persons who COM
posed the latter are ia reality more fearful Of a
number OF res0lute, well organized police than
of unframed militia
At noon Governor H0adIey ordered the
| troops en- route to the city 70 return the tfh
and 18th regiments TO he relieved aud the rest
Of the troops 20 be held in Cincinnati till fur
| Their orders.
The city was patrolled Monday night by
| members OF the Grand Army OF the Republic
IN addition to the police force. The exact num-
Der OF dead and wounded viii probably never
| be ascertained. on account of many Of the
/ wounded being carried away by their friends
But the number of those killed outright. or
| dying at the hospital. is fortv-One, as shown by
| the records of the city undertakes and the
hospitals and such information from those
taken home as could be had. The number Of
| wounded, complied from the same sources, is
30, and there are probably half as many more
| wounded not reported.
The COMMITTEES OF fifteen has decided TO raise
By subscription, 100000. to BE- used to pay
1000 extra police. This sum viii be a loan to
