Business Men Moving for the Calling Out of the Militia, Declaring That RiOting in the Streets Is Increasing in VirulenCe.

' tive COi4lIOl Oi ls4e SlIlhe SlLudliOl lO- morrow morning So much pressure has been brought to bear upon him and upon Mayor Dunre Dy the business men who believe their interests to be | seriously imperilled by constant riot l ing in the streets that the sheriff has l been compelled to swear in a large force of deputies and take active steps to do away with the present disorder. Two hundred deputies were sworn in | this aftrnoon at the office of Sheriff i Barrett, and it is expected that 1000 will have been enrolled by tomorrow i evening.
 A committee of prominent business men headed by John D. Shedd of Marshall Field and company. went to i Springfield this afternoon to lay the situation before Governor Deneen and to declare that in their opinion condi- | tons in Chicago are such that the mil ! itia Is imperatively needed. The Chi CagO Clearing House association this afternoon adopted sweeping resolutions declaring that riots in the streets were 1 constantly increasing in fury and had gone beyond the power of civil author ities Of the city and county to con- tIol. It was therefore the opinion of ! the members of the clearing house that the state troops should be at once call ! cd upon. The sheriff is determined to tcke the situation in hand himself de- ! cIaring that until he has done so, he will not be justified in calling the mil it:5.
 Mayor Dunne for three hours this afternoon rode through the down town streets in a buggy and on his return to the city hall. declared that he had seen no violence and he believed the pc.ice to be fully able to cope with the situation
 Chief Deputy Sheriff Peters made close scrutiny of all candidates for the position of deputy sheriff Every man was required to produce some person who could vouch for his reliability De- Tuty Sheriff Peters announced that he ls ou}d take neither union -uneE aor-rep- TeSeIItatives of the employers associa- ton if he knew it.
 The teamsters made attempt thls af- tolnoon to call out the employees of the Chicago Union Traction company. I his corporation operates an street car liues on the north and west sides of the city and is in charge of receivers ap- pointed by the United States courts.
 Albert Young. representing the team sters. called upon General Manager Poach of the traction company and demanded that the company at once cancel It's contracts with the Peabody Coal company and receive no more coal from it. Young was then informed that the contract would not be canceII- cd and that the company would con tinue to receive coal from the Peabody Coal company. W. D. Mahon. presi- dent of the national organization of street railway men was in the city and lafter looking into the situation, he to- night ordered all the members of the street car mems union to continue at work. They were under an agree nent he declared with the Union Trac- ton company, and this agreement would not be broken.
 Notwithstanding constant fighting in the streets and numerous attacks made upon non union men. the large dry goods houses and wholesale grocers to- night reported that they were steadily making progress and increasing their shipments.
 The express companies were inter- fered with but little. and much pro- gress was made toward relieving the congested situation at various railroad , stations.
 : The South Water Street Commis- sion Merchants association, an organ ization with a membership of over 400 decided today to cast their lot with the employers association and to receive goods from any firm, regardless of whether such deliveries were made by the union or non- union teamsters.
 There was less disturbance today in the wholesale district but fighting went on with it's usual persistence and vii ci ciousness in the heart of the fashion able shopping district A number of non union men were clubbed and beat en and their wagon guards and police retahated with vigor upon the rioters. In every instance the crowds were dis persed after a brief scrimmage, which was however, in several cases of a rather sharp character.
 The number of injured was from all accounts about tie same as that of the last two days About thirty to forty men have been cared for at the var ious hospitals and there are fully as many more w2o have received medical attendance and whose names are not known to the police.
