RESORT TO THE TORCH.
Tncendiarism Enns Rampant In the Chi
cagO Railway Yards.

cagO Halfway fards.
CHICAGO, July Yesterday the
strike situation was the worst it has
yet been. All day riotous dcmonstra-
tions We're reported from various por-
tions of the city. During the day six
persons were killed, being fired on by
the authorities while trying To wreck
trains. The troops are utterly unable
to control the situation and Mayor
Hopkins, seeing that the 5000 police
men are not sufficient. called on the
governor forstate troops. Two briGades
were ordered to the city. Efforts of
the railroads to move trains We're ut
terly abandoned later in the day as it
was apparent that nothing but failure
could result.
Last night incendiaries took hand
in the strike. The Pan Handle yards
We're ablazc early and fires soon eY-
tended from Fifty-fifth to SiNty-third
streets. and between 1000 and 1000
cars were on fire. The depot at Sixty
third street was also destroyed. The
Grand Trunk yards at Elston were also
sea of flames The Illinois Central
shops at Burnside were destroyed. At
the stock yards a systematic process of
firing cars was INDUCED in and the re-
suit was appalling
The aggregate losses to the railroads
will be enormous. Miles of tracks are
ruined by fire aud heat hundreds of
switch and signal towers with expens-
i've mechanism are utterly destroyed:
valuable locomotives wrecked and dis
abled, and endless tangles of wires and
PROSTATE poles litter the ground Only
one residence was burned thus far, and
that was in the stock yards district, but
the wanton destruction of railway
property continues unchecked. The
loss to the Pan Handle alone will ag-
gregate S1,25O,00o
1t is now apparent that nothing but
such a massing of fighting men as was
never before seen in the history of the
nation in time of peace will stop the
rioting. The strike infection is so
widespread that the president and his
advisers believe it will be unwise to
withdraw any more regular troops
from the country west of Chicago. 1t
is therefore. in contemplation, should
the forces, federal, state and municipal.
already here, be unequal to the task of
restoring order, to send here ten COM
