[RepubIican A. p. Leased wire]

and bloodshed had abated tonight after four days and nights of rioting, but violence continued to occur sporadical- ly, notwithstanding an army of nearly 10000 state troopers and policemen who were on active duty in the South Side negro quarters.
 Three negroes died today of bullet wounds. making the official beath list 32, of whom IS were negroes. Only one of these was shot today, though a dozen or more members of both races were wounded in scattered dis turbances. There was no shooting by troops, who were ordered on the streets last night by Governor Lowden on the request of Mayor Thompson.
 The negro district was comparatively quiet tonight. The presence of the troops apparently had calmed the ne- groes' fears, and had had a salutory effect on the disturbing elements among both whites and blacks. Troops were well distributed and the military machinery was running smoothly
 Food Supplies to Negroes
 Food supplies were rushed into the negro sections by cooperation of the Wholesale Grocers' association, the po- lice and the troops. The black belt remained a barred zone where whites might not enter and even the guarded trucks of groceries were driven only to the "deadline" by white chauffeurs, who then were relieved by negro driv- CTS under police escort
 Many of the poorer negroes were re- ported in dire need of food and without funds.
 Today was pay day at the stock yards, but negroes feared to go there to draw their wages. Thousands ol negroes have not attempted to go to work all week. Among today's dis orders only two involved any consid- erable number of persons. Several hundred whites in search of four ne- groes who had hidden in the stock yards, were driven off by militia men with lowered bayonets after the whites had demanded that the blacks be de- livered to them. No casualties re- suited
 About 400 white men beat one oi three negroes severely at Forty sev- ] enth street and Vincennes avenue this afternoon. The other two, both armed i escaped after firing a few shots. Nc whites were wounded.
 A negro was beaten by live white men at State and Twentieth streets
 Two of the negroes who died today were found unconscious on the West Side far from the South Side negro sections.
 Asks Additional Policemen 1 Mayor Thompson, in spite of the de crease in violence, asked the city coun- cil today for 1000 additional permanen policemen. The council took no defi- nite action. however, because the chair man of the finance committee said ht was unable to say where funds to pa, i the men could be found.
 Chief Garrity announced that 1,S0i special policemen would go on duty to- morrow. The troops now on active dut, number approximately 6.500 with thu greater part of two regiments, th' Fourth reserve militia and the Ninti national guard, still on reserve il armories.
 The second battalion of the Fouru was sent out on riot duty tonight. Tw, companies of the Ninth are patrollini in the stock yards.
 With the lessening of violence, pub lie officials became more active in in vestigation of the riots and thei causes. Attorney General Brundag and States Attorney Hoyne are co operating in obtaining evidence for grand jury investigation. Both off cials say many persons Of both race will be punished and the death penalt is virtually certain to be sought After a tour of the riot areas to night Governor Lowden said he wa greatly impressed with the mastery Q the situation maintained by the polio and military establishments !
