Soldiers on Duty.
All of the soldiers from the several
nearby cities arriv, and here to-day an-i
are on duty. Several companies from
Home, Griffin, and other nearby cities,
came in last night, while all during
the day troops have arrived lrom dir

troops.

riot and that the number killed is far
in excess of the number reported by
the papers to-day. However, it Is
known that the death list has passed
twenty, and many people of the city
are of the opinion that no less than i
fifty negroes have been murdered I
since Saturday night. The 1 coroner J
finds it impossible to make a’ %qn i
servative estimate. T
Negroes are Leaving. )
The negroes are leaving the city b
the hundreds. Most of them are wait
lug to nearby stations where tbs
board trains and go to other par*
None of them dare to risk going tds
the depot to take the train. Where
all the negroes have gone in such i
short space of time is a puzzle. It s
known that not two dozen were seen
in the entire city to-day, and while
it is claimed that < ally to-night sev
eral mobs marched through the negr.i
section of the city, they did not sue
coed in locating a single man. . It >.s
believed, however, that the majority
of theiji ’are still in*the city but if
hid.
Saloons Still Closed.
| Not a saloon in Atlanta opened for
j business this morning, under orders
| from Mayor Woodward. Just when
they will he permitted to open again
cannrtt he foretold at this time. Sev
eral meetings have been held by the
authorities and everything possible' is
being done to quell the disturbance.
It iso elieved that if things pass off
quietly to-night the trouble will he
over. The mob, to a great extent,
has disbanded. That is, several inde
pendent mobs have been formed, but
there were not as many members ns
on thhe previous two nights, tip to
10 o’clock to-night, wv trouble |
been reported, although tea ed
‘that tho mob will cohtlmieTte W rk

Considerable damage has been done
to property by, the mob. A number

along Whitehult street and was pur

chance was to plunge through a plate
