EIGHTEEN RIOTERS ARRESTED.
Vile Mob That Killed Six
Negroes.

MARION, ILL, Sept. 1S.-Lieutenant
Louden, with q detail of soldiers, arrived
here at noon to-day, in charge of eighteen
union miners whom he captured after mid
night on the public highway north of Car
terville. They were all armed with guns
and well supplied with ammunition. When
captured they were in wagons and said
they were returning from Carterville to
their homes at Herrine. a new mining
town ten miles northwest of here.
They are charged with having been
part of the armed mob which had gathered
around Brushs mine last night before the
troops arrived. States Attorney Fowler
has filed complaint of murder against
them with Justice J. W. Samuels
The miners arrested are white men. and
the report of their arrest has caused the
excitement TO rise TO a fever heat. United
States District Attorney j. Otis Hum
phrey is acting Governor Tanners spe-
cial agent at Marion. Ill. Governor Tan
ner last night summoned Mr.. Humphrey
and, after hasty consultation. dis
patched him to Marion with instructions
to encourage the officers of the law to
proceed vigorously in their investigations
of the bloodshed at carterville, and to use
the utmost endeaVorS to discover all of the
| responsible parties and arrest and bring
them to speedy justice.
The governor further instructed his
agent to asure Sheriff Gray and other civil
| authorities that all the protection neces-
sary would be furnished them in the way
of state troops, either by companies or
squads. to accompany the sheriff and his
deputy In making arrests. Mr.. Humphrey
left for Marion as soon as he received the
above instructions which are of import
ance as they fully explain the stand Gov
ernor Tanner has taken with reference to
| the Carterville riot.
Governor Tanner this evening revoked
| the order relieving Company C, Fourth
regiment, Carbondale. from duty at Car
| terville.
