THE ILLINOIS WAY.


y Decatur, ILL.,. SpeCldl says.
For several days persons having
negroes in their employ have been
receiving anonymous letters warning
them that if the blacks were not dis
charged the latter would be driven out
of town. No attention was paid to
the letters. Last night number of
citizens met and decided to rid the
town Of negroes. Saloons were visited
and by midnight a mob Of fifty men
and boys collected. In the meantime
friends of the negroes began gather
ing forces and secured an equal num-
Der of boys. An anti-negrO mob went
to the hotel and saloon where the
eight negroes of the town were en-
ployed, but all but three had fled.
One negro was caught by the mob.
but the opposing organization res
cued him after a hot fist fight and
conveyed him to place of safety.
To-day he left town. Two black
hotel porters took refuge in their
rooms during the trouble, but today
left the city. An effort was made to
get them to take legal proceedings
against the mob but they refused to
do so.
Tonight there is not colored man
in Decatur. The posse which drove
them away was composed largely of
drunken men and boys, although sew
