HERRIN. Ill, June % ASSOCIATED
proszl.-Herrin today remained quiet
after the disorders in which at least -
men were killed and an unknown number
wounded when 5000 union miners and
sympathizers attacked approximately
half a hundred imported workers III the
Lester strip pit of the Southern Illinois
Coal Co.
County officials asserted the 1000 mem
bers of the Illinois National Guard or
dered to mobilize in Chicago for possible
duty here were unnecessary. An inquest
was set for today.
The exact number of dead may never
be known No one seemed inclined to
drag the pond where bodies were reported
thrown. and no searching parties have
been organized to seek bodies IN the
woods.
All reports agree that the victims were
shot down in cold blood after they had
put up the white flag and surrendered
themselves. In the morgue women and
children as they passed through com
mented on the accuracy Of the shooters.
c. X Mcdowell strike breakers super
intendent was beaten to death with
stones before being riddled with bullets,
according to persons who say they were
eye witnesses.
The mine safe was looted and one man
with $500 in bills dealt out the money
like cards.
The correspondent saw a knife plunged
into the throat of a wounded man who
in bis dying breath gaSped a plea: In
the name of my mother, in the name of
your mother in the name of our God,
give me water" only to receive laughs
and iibes such as: Where you're going
you won't see water" rs a reply.
Mothers carried babes into the mOrgue
and up to piles of bodies in the roads with
such remarks as: Take look at what
your papa did. kids
The dead were embalmed last night.
Scores watched the processes all through
the night, making unprincipled remarks
about the bodies.
A member Of the police force told the
correspondent that if troops were sent
here he'd take the night police force
and clean them out" Inquiry devel
oped that he was the night police force
