RUNNING HIGH
Following Recent Riot at
Cairo, Ill,
WHEN MOB LEADER WAS KILLED
BY the Sheriff'S Posse, Which
Was Composed in Part
of Negroes.

Cairo, ILL.,, Feb. 21.-Police officers
are searching the city tonight for a
negro suspected Of purse-snatching'
and another clash between the author
tiles and the citizens Is feared II the
man is caught.
Feeling is still running high against
these negroes, and intensity was added
to this sentiment this afternoon when
negroes, it is charged, made Insulting
gestures at the persons in the funeral
procession that was following the
body OF Alexander Halliday, killed
Thursday night in an attack on the
Jail, to the cemetery. ---....-......
Nearly 900 persons attended Halli-
days funeral and accompanied the
body to Mounds, ILL.,, in a special
train.
As the train was passing through
the negro district east of Cairo, ne
groes collected on the streets to watch
its. passage. At Thirty-first street.
members of the funeral party charge,
an insulting demonstration was made.
An effort was made to organize a
party on the train during the re-
turn trip to Cairo to wreak summary
revenge on the negroes, but no dis
turbance resulted.
An unidentified man created dis
tulhance at the cemetery by demand
ing permission to make speech over
the grave, but he was hurried away.
He said he was a friend Of Halliday
and that he had been run out OF
town by the police.
The negro the police are after to-
night Is believed to have been asso-
ciated with John Pratt, the negro
who escaped lynching when Sheriff
Nellis defended the Jail at the cost OF
one life and the injury of several 9TH
ers in the attacking party. II he Is
caught an effort may be made to take
him away from the police before the
militia has an opportunity to inter-
fere.
The military continued to patrol the
streets tonight at regular intervals.
Several small crowds were dispersed
during the day, but no demonstration
took place of any moment.
The bitterness of feeling against
the negro elemnet is manifested in
threats and rumors Of future demon
strations. Women generally are carry
ing revolvers and are urged by their
husbands and male relatives to shoot
to kill if attacked.
The home of Sheriff Nellls Is guard
ed by the militia and he is given a
military escort when he leaves the
court house Popular feeling is
against him for using negro deputies
end allowing Halliday's body TO lie in
front of the Jail for three hours.
Adiutant General Dickson, Governor
Deneens personal representative, de-
clared this afternoon that Sheriff Nell
lis was not ordered by the Governor to
permit Halliday's body to be on the
ground until the militia arrived.
Mrs. Nellis, wife of the Sheriff, col
lapsed this afternoon under the strain
and is now under a PHYSICIANS care.
She is one of the women who are
