NEGRO WORKMEN
 ID RETURN HOME Will Not be Employed at the
 latrobe Works BLACKS IN GREAT FEAR Citizens of Meirose Park Determined That Imported Laborers Should Not Land-S.,eriff Said There
 Should Be No Violence.
BLACKS IN GREAT FEAR

Chicago, July 25. = General Manager Works at Melrose Park gave out a state ment this morning declaring that the company has abandoned the effort to bring the colored laborers to Melrose Park and that they will be sent back to their homes in Alabama All day the 800 coiored men sat in their cars at La Grange, twenty-eight miles from Chicago, in fear. A committee of five citizens of Melrose Park called on them during the morning and used their best endeavors to induce the men to return to Alabama. They informed the negro men of the actu- al state of affairs in Melrose Park, where 300 armed men were awaiting the arrival of their train, determined that the negro men should not be allowed to alight in the village. Their statements alarmed the negroes more than ever, and finally five of them left the train and made their way to Chicago, where they sought an interview with Chief of Police O'Nelll, asking protection, which he could not give, as the trouble was not within the city limits.
 After the five men had left the train to come to Chicago the fears of those left on the train increased greatly, and it was with great difficulty that the train man agement kept them from running off in a panic. Nearly all of the negro workmen declared that they would not go to Mel rose Park, and that if taken there they would refuse to get out of the cars.
 At oclock Marshal Rau of the town of v 1A %x-nfr arfr fha colored men to move out of the village. It did so and was placed on a siding at Salt Creek, two miles north of LaGrange.
 Asked for Protection.
 In the meantime attorneys for the steel company called upon Sheriff Magerstadt and asked that the company be given am- pie protection against the mob violence which was threatened They stated posi- lively that the laborers would be landed in the shops of the company late this evening, whether the sheriff furnished any aid or not.
 .'I have just received telegram from Adjutant General Reece, offering me the aid of the state militia If need it," said Sheriff Maserstadt, after his conference with the atforneys. "but ! will not need it. I have Sent half a dozen men to Mel rose Park this afternoon simply to make report 10 me on the conoitionS there. II they say that a mob of 300 armed men are patrolling the streets as the officials of the company inform me, will swear in numbar of deputies, and will preserve the peace ht all hazards. However, I am not going to call upon the militia. as the county Is capable of preserving the peace without that"
 At Melrose Park the armed citizens re- mained on watch until assured that the negroes were not coming. when they dis persed.
