Chicago, May 4.-On the nineteenth
anniversary of the Haymarket riot.
when eight persons were blown TO
pieces, and sixty-six were frightfully
wounded, the police today again
found themselves coping with the
mobs.
Old time policemen looked thoughtful
today and watched sharply for sign
Of possible repetition of the peril
which confronted their association In
the Haymarket. Dynamite. however,
was not generally looked for, except as
a bare possibility from some irrespoils-
ible individual, unconnected with any
organization.
AS a result OF communications be-
tween the city and state executives in
regard to ordering out troops. con-
ference is said to have been arranged
between Governor Deneen and Mayor
Dunno for tomorrow evening or Satur-
day. The governor is said to have as
sured the mayor, in the meantime.
the order will be issued calling out the
soldiers.

the negro picked up stone and threw
it into the crowd Riebling was struck

left for Springfield today on a special
train, presumably to confer with the
governor on the strike situation. Mayor
Dunno and Chief OF Police O'Neill de-
clared today there was apparently less
need for outside assistance today than
there was yesterday. Renewed efforts
were made today toward bringing
about arbitration Of the strike. Pc
titions to that end were circulated by
labor leaders. A call has been issued
for a peace meeting at the Auditorium

teamsters' union, clarified the situa-
tion somewhat today by an explicit
statement that the strikers do not ask
for so-called "closed shop"

NAL request from the Chicago Employ
ers' Association to act with the police
in quelling rioting by swearing in sew

said to be preliminary to plans to have
national guards put in the streets. The
sheriff said with his deputies and poll
ice he believed the disturbances could
be quelled.
Sheriff Barrett has decided to swear
in large number of deputies for strike
duty, but he will do so against the
wishes of Mayor Dunno, who declares
the police force adequate to preserve
peace. The sheriff expects to have 1900
sheriff this afternoon was said to have
in his pocket a telegram ready, which
in effect informed the governor of the
mayor having been superseded by TIL,
sheriff the latter found himself unable
to restore peace and therefore troops
would be necessary. Holding of the

the sheriff could secure the number
and character of deputies needed, at an
expense to the county Of $4,000 per day.
