ded to, however, the 4,200 soldiers
now encamped in the public squares
and streets, being sufficient to cover
the city so thorough that there is
not chance for a mob to organize.
s5@. Quick Work.
) The mobilization Of the troops was
one of the most rapid evolutions in
the history of the state militia. Ten
minutes after Sheriff Werner had mo-.
titled Col. r. J. Shands of the ad-
jutant generals office, that the sold
iers were necessary, the Springfield
companies had been ordered to arms.
From then until daybreak five troops
Of the First cavalry arrived from
Chicago and the khaki-clad militia
men have. been pouring into the state
capital from all quarters.
Despite the haste Of the movement
the commissary and the quarter
master departments have withstood
the strains upon them. F.
r. Refugees Returning.
There was considerable influx of
refugees from Decatur, Bloomington,
Peoria and other towns today. -
Governor Deneen was the recipient
of many inquiries from these people
asking whether it was safe to return
and in each case he assumed possi-
tive responsibility for the protection
Of the negroes, advising them, how.
ever, that if they should come back
he assured them that escorts of sold
iers would meet them at trains and
conduct them to their homes and
guard them throughout the night.
Trouble when Troops Leave.
What will happen when the nation.
al guardsmen leave? H..
This is the question Of paramount
Importance in the minds of local citi
zens. 1t Is generally agreed that
as long as Governor Deneen wields
the mailed fist trouble Of serious
nature is not probable. The street!
are too tharoughly patrolled ant
danger points too well guarded; Blu
it is obvious that the militiamen can
not stay all summer and there is !;
| belief that the departure Of the KHAKI
| force will see a renewal of yiolenc
against, the negroes. h Il. ..ss.
The feeling against the coloret
citizens is one Of years standing, an,
1.-The present riots, according to citiz
ems. is the result Of years Of radica
antagonism. The so-called blac]
belt has for years been an eysore t.
the better class Of people. And eacl
year has seen an augment Of the CO.
ored population. 1t is said that il
the last two years thousands Of ne
groes have come here.
:. "They were getting too bold an
impudent," said well known hote
man today. People outside of tn
city cannot realize just how offensiv
this was. The people OF the state a
large will discover that the outbrea
will result in an exodus Of negroe
from Springfield that will be perme
nent." .s.ss

CITY MAY HAVE
U. LEAGUE TEAM
Al. Lawson Will be Here on
Friday to Talk Over
the Matter

There seems to be little doubt that
Wilmington will be represented in the
new Union League Of baseball clubs.
1t was said this morning that steps
have already been taken along that
line and negotiations regarding the
lease of a site suitable for a ball field
are now being conducted by an at
torney who represents several promi-
nent men Of the city who will back
the enterprise.
Theer are several localities under
consideration. among them being the
Rivrview grounds and the old Will
mington B. b. grounds at Lancaster
avenue and Union streets. Just who
are back OF the proposed new team Is
not disclosed but IL is said that there
is plenty Of capital to carry the pro-
ject through.
It is believed that Wilmington can
support two ball teams. providing they
are up to the standard and the Union
League proposes TO put an "A /" club in
the field
AL. Lawson. president Of the league,
will be in Wilmington on Friday to
confer with those interested i'm the
movement. II is said that several play
ers are under partial contract, among
whom is Pat McAulley. who caught
for the wilmington team last year.
With the entrance of Wilmington
into the Union League there will be
seven clubs on the list, leaving but
on more city TO be decided upon.

VESTRYMEN AT
ODDS WITH RECTOR
Seven Of the Eight Official
Members Resign at ST.
Andrews Church
Mr.. WELLS SAYS He
IS NOT TO STEP OUT

AS a result of a difference Of views
as to church policy which has existed
for sometime. seven OF the eight ves-
trymen of st. Andrews Protestant
Episcopal Church have resigned. Their
designations. however, are not to take
effect until Easter Sunday, which prac-
tically means that they do not wish
to stand as candidates for recollection
on Easter Monday when vestrymen
are elected in the various Episcopal
churches.
The vestrymen who have thus deter
mined to step out OF the official posi-
tions are: Wardens, Captain willard
Thomson and Alfred S. Elliott; ves-
trymen, David Lindsay, Charles r..
Dubell. Willard jackson, William IL.
Thomson and Charles 1. Kent Charles
r.. Miller had resigned and his resig-
nation had been accepted at the ves-
try meeting of October. 1907
This leaves George r. Homecker as
the only member of the vestry who
has not resigned. Mr.. HoneclSer was
elected at this years meeting to sue
ceed George W. Baker, a contest be-
tween Mr.. Baker and Mr.. HoffeclSer
having taken place at that time. from
l
resignation OF the vestrymen can be
traced.
It seems that Mr.. Baker had been
a vestryman for many years. and when
Mr.. Honecker became a candidate he
had the support OF the Rev. Hubert
W. Wells the rector, along with many
| in the congregation for the position
and was elected. The other vestry1nen
were friendly TO Mr. Baker
Aside from this, Il Is understood that
Rector Wells has some ideas for
starting a progressive missionary work
in connection with st. Andrews
Church. but his suggestion along this
line did not arouse much Gthusiasm
among the vestrymen. A elimination
OF these differences in views as TO the
church policy now comes with the de-
cision OF the vestrymen to retire. This
will give Rector Wells and his support
ers in the congregation an opportunity
on Easter Monday next TO nominate
