HERRIN, Ills, June 23:-"Twen-
ty-five scabs are dead, nine are in
the hospitals, and the mine is
closed. The striking miners prayer
is answered" ....-s. ,
These words, crudely lettered on
q sign, are conspicuously posted in
q barber shop on the main street
a short distance from the morgue
that houses most of the victims Of
the mine war that prevailed late
Wednesday and throughout most of
Thursday. It apparently typifeis
the feeling prevalent in this dis
trict.
No Fear Of Punishment.
There is no apparent apprehension
that a day of punishment will como
to those responsible for the out
break of violence In which twenty
are known to have been killed and
many injured.
The disposition here today seems
to be to regard the affair as a closed
incident. Outside of the crowdsthat
are pouring In to gaze and sneer
upon the victims in the morgues,
everything Is quiet.
The known victims of the warfare
number twenty killed and eighteen
seriously wounded. Many are still
unaccounted for and the dead may
reach fifty. "
OF these known to have been
killed two were striking miners ard
eighteen were workers at the mine
OF the Southern Illinois Coal Gem
-
ed. The injured list includes but
three union men.
Seventeen Bodies In Morgue.
Seventeen bodies are in the morgae
at Herrin. The body Of Superintend-
ent Mcdowell has been taken to
Marion.
The injured list is made up Of
three injured guards at Carbondale,
and fourteen injured miners and
mine workers In the hospital at Her
rim.
Out OF fifty-two men who left the
mine, eighteen remain unaccounted
for. Six guards who escaped from
an ambushed motortruck are still
missing.
Reports continued to come In today
of dead bodies lying In fields and
woods through which the attacking
forces marched their victims after
the surrender at the mine. Officials
were Inclined TO doubt the authen-
ticity' OF these reports, although Il
was admitted that the casualty list
probably would be Increased by the
finding OF additional bodies or the
death Of some Of the moro seriously
injured.
The property loss WIN amount 20
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars.

EUSTACE TO MEET LINOW
One of Big Wrestling Matches of Sea-
son To Be Held ia April.

Topeka wrestling devotees are as
sured another corking match before
the season closes, as the American
Legion boys Thursday night completed
a deal to have Allen Eustace and Jack
Linow meet in Topeka during the first
week in April.
Linow should prove a fit and capable
opponent for the Kansas mat man, as
he has shown his ability with both
Lewis and Zbyszko and has a record
that places him right among the top
nOtchers- 1t would be a difficult mat
ter to secure a better bout and the
more the fans study the affair, the
better they will like it.
Bill F'loto of Kansas City will again
help the legion boys, and with every
body putting their shoulder to the
wheel it is bound to go over big and be
a great show.
