Receiver Dyer will not long delay this

WESTERN FEELING
Against Chinese at Fever Heat.
Tr0opS Called Out.

CHICAGO, July ga special
to the Time Herald from Cheyenne
Wyo,, says:
A number of outrages have been
committed by foreigners upon the
Chinese residents of Rock Springs,
coal mining town, goo miles west
of here, on the Union Pacific rail
road during the past few days.
The State authorities, fearing a
general movement against China
town, where more than 500 China
men reside, have ordered several
companies of troops to be in readi-
ness to move to the scene.
Probably two companies of infan-
try will go to Rock Spring to-mor-
row, when martial law will be
proclaimed.
Feeling among the foreign labor
ers at Rock Springs against the
Chinese is at fever heat, but the
State authorities will do everything
possible to protect the Cinnamon
and prevent bloodshed.
