No Excitement Of ANY Sort at Spring
Valley--All the White People on
the Side Of the Italians-Excite-
ment in Chicago.

Spring Valley, H., August 6.-The
situation is very quiet in this city. The
negroes are making no efforts to come
back. The reports about armed ne
groes coming from Peoria and Chica-
ga to avenge Sundays affair, caused
no unusual excitement here. They
would not have only the italian miners
to deal with but every white miner in
the city as well, numbering in the
neighborhood of 1000. Word was sent
in from Ladd and Toluca this morning
promising the whites all the assistance
necessary in case of an invasion Of
blacks from other towns. In case Of
an invasion 5000 white miners could
be mustered together in this city In less
than TOW hours. The whites in this
city do not apprehend any danger in
that direction. They do not express
the least sorrow over the event Of Sun
day and invite a fair and impartial in
vestigation. They cdaimed to have en-
dured the ouUages Of the blacks as
long as they could. An Associated
Press correspondent who was on the
ground and witnessed Sundays battle,
from beginning to end, has succeeded
in discovering but one negro shot and
the injury is only a flesh wound OF no
serious nature. About ten to twelve

They decided to stay in session all
day and a committee of four men was

situation there. The meeting was a
scene Of wild excitement, half a dozen
speeches being made al the same time.
