Bloomington, Ill.-Thirty Italians,
who have been employed by the Hi
nois Central at Clinton, were driv-
en- from the town by a mob, who in
Inundated them with a fusilace of
shots from guns and revolvers. There
has been much indignation against the
Italians since Mayor Edmondson re-
ceived ;;'Black Hand" letter threat
ening his life. The Italians were
charged with the authorship. The
railroad has been employing the Ital-
ians to the alleged exclusion of sew
eral hundred American born residents
who were unemployed. The author
titles have been unable to secure any
clew leading to the arrest of the men
composing the mob.
