were that the orgy of butchery.
and incendiarism that cost
many lives here last night and
laid whole blocks in ruins had
spent its force, ,Adjt. Gen. Frank
S. Dickson of Illinois asserted
today shat he feared there
might be more trouble tonight
and discussed with Mayor Moll-
man the advisability of calling
for more troops.
The six companies OF suardsmen
who were on the ground last might, this
adjutant general explained, were inad-
equate to cover the wide territory
where rioting prevailed. He feared
that even the additional companies
which arrived later bringing the total
number of guarasSnen hers to 800.

authority.
Estimates of the number of dead
varied from 80 to 250.
