ALTGELD'S MISTAKE.

The published statement Of Governor
Altgeld that he did not believe the city
was In need Of outside aid has not been
met with a kind reception. Mayor Bad
er and the rest Of the townspeople here
feel that they are In most urgent need
of all assistance they can get There
are hundreds Of persons here with no
homes, no money and even without q
stitch Of clothing Of their own to be
provided for and assistance from other
cities will be required.
Governor Altgeld Is not blamed, but
the citizens believe that he did not
thoroughly grasp the gravity of the sit
uation owing to the shortness Of his
stay here. Mayor Bader, in speaking
Of the situation, said:
'As near as we have been able to
count up nearly 600 houses have been
destroyed. with not less than from three
to six people In each OF them. Their
clothing in great part was destroyed,
blown away, II you please. So was
their furniture and bedding, and few Of
them have any money to buy more.
I'VE have been obliged to appeal to
the outside world for aid, and hope
that 1t will be responded to readily for
the emergency is dire and presnlng."
