 ST. LOUIS, April 11.-Application was made tonight to Judge Van Wagoner at his residence by Judge Laughlan, representing the Louisville & Nashville railway, for writs of habeas corpus in the case of deputy sheriffs detained in this city for the shooting in East St. Louis. In each case the petitioner sets forth that he is held in the jail at St. Louis by Chief of Police Harrigan and that his de- tentlon is illegal ''because said petitioner who was regularly deputized sheriff in the county of St. Claire, State of Illinois, en- gagged in the discharge of his duty as such officer on April g, 1S66 in the city of East St. Louis together with other deputy sheriffs, was attacked and set upon by lawless mob and driven across the bridge into this city and upon meeting an officer of the force of this city said petitioner and his companions voluntarily requested said officer to give them protection against their pursu- CTS and assailants. That thereupon said off cer delivered said petitioner to said Law renee Harrigan, chief of police, who caused said petitioner and his companion deputy sheriffs to be incarcerated in said jail" The application then says the petitioner has ap- piled for release to- Chief Harrigan and has been refused and that the application has not been refused by any Superior court The capias being ordered to issue notice was made out and sent to Harrigan com manding him to appear at 10 o'clock on Monday and show cause for detairing the men "who are held upon no charge whatso- ever" Chief Harrigan will make return Monday morning when the deputy sheriffs will be brought into court and he will ex- plain the circumstances of hold ing them. They may be dis charged, but they can be arrested on warrants charging them with being fugi- tives from justice. The proceeding has no particular significance except in so far that the railroad companies propose to stand by the deputy sheriffs.
 Everything was quiet in East St. Louis to- day. The entire levee front was patrolled during the ight by seven companies of militia, and a line of pickets were thrown around the yard. Their orders were to keep all stragglers out and to permit no one to ap- proach within two blocks. This, together with a heavy rainfall prevented repetition of the incendiary acts Between midnight and l 8. m. companies from Robinson, Newton and Aricola of tha Eighth regiment, and from Jackson, Petersburg and Edwardville, of the Fifth, arrived. They were at once deployed about the ground. All day to-day the yards were guarded by armed militiamen. Senators were placed within hailing distance of each other and also at the entrance of the big bridge. No one was allowed to go by without a pass.
 At an early hour this morning large crowds began to assemble to take part in the funeral ceremonies of Patrick Driscoll, John Bonner and Oscar Washington, three of the victims of Fridays attack. Delegations of Knights- of Labor from Belleville and other Illinois towns came in and when the procession was formed between five thousand and six thou sand persons were in line. The remains were taken to St. Patrick's church where the funeral services of the Catholic church were held after. which the procession reformed and slowly and mourntully wend- ed its way to St. Peter's cemetery. On their return they again formed into line to attend the funeral of Major Richman and Mrs. Pfeiffer, two more of the victims. May or Joyce and the city police force, accompan- jed by brass band, marched at the head of
