Number Of Dead Fixed at
Thlrty-three.

seventeen negroes were charged
with rioting and murder in indict-
ments voted by a special grand jury
investigating race riots. which. for five
days last week. held the south side OF
Chicago In a reign OF terror.
While city. county and state author
tiles combined In seeking causes which
led TO the rioting. In an endeavor TO
fix responsibility, 60O0 state troops.
5000 policemen and 1000 deputies con
tinued TO patrol the negro quarter.
Ofhlrls reported the riot zone quiet
and ey ~ effort being made 10 relieve
the SUI fering negroes who have been
maroOned In the area and who have
been unable TO go TO their work. A
number of soup kitchens were opened
and guards were furnished for ne
groes who wished TO return 70 work.
The police Monday obtained reports
OF threatening. anonymous letters re-
ceived by negro families living on the
edge Of the negro district, in which,
the negroes were warned TO move with
in two days or their homes would be
burned and bombed aud the negroes
killed.

OF dead at thlrty-three and the city
health commissioner has found that
800 people injured in the riots were
treated I'm hospitals. that perhaps 400
or more who were injured In the
riots never reported at hospitals.
The state troops had little TO do
during Monday night in the riot zone.

persistent reports telephoned TO head
quarters OF the Second regiment that
a crowd OF 500 men was gathering at
West 59th street When a company
of troops reached the scene the crowd
vanished.
Several thousand negroes who ex-
pected to return 10 work In the stock

caused by the disturbances In the dis
trict has subsidized. After announcing
that the colored men would return To
work. superintendents Of all the large
packing plants decided that It would
be prudent TO hold the negroes at their
homes for an indefinite period.
