A SERIOUS AFFRAY.

Macon (Ga.) Cadets Get Into n Fracas
with Negro Toughs at Indianapolis and
Bloody Fight Ensues, In which Some
on Both sides were Severely Injured
The Police Restore Order.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July IA dam
EerOus riot occurred on Kentucky ave-
nue, at o'clock yesterday afternoon,
between party of southern cadets of
Macon, Ga. and several negro toughs,
and for time it seemed as if the most
serious consequences would result
The southern boys We're passing down
the thoroughfare when they were guyed
by negro bootblack. The boys took it
good-naturedly for a time, but finally
got angry and advanced on the negro,
who was surrounded by a number of
older ones who were encouraging the
insults. The bootblack threw his box
at one of the whites, striking him a
singing blow upon the head.
The crowd then advanced upon the
negroes, who broke and ran into a
negro saloon near by, the whites fol-
lowing. As the latter entered they
were confronted by some twenty or
more negroes and perfect volley OF
spittoOns, brickbats and stones were
hurled at them. Nothing daunted, the
whites grabbed what missiles they
could and returned the volley, knocking
a half dozen negroes down. Freeman,
of the whites, and Martin Lynch, a burly
negro, closed in upon each other with
billiard cues Edwards came to Free
mans assistance, and Lynch was soon
stretched upon the floor, bleeding from
Il dozen ugly wounds in his head. An
other negro rushed upon Freeman with
a razor and gave him cash in the left
cheek extending from the mouth to the
back of the jaw. Williams, another of
the Macon boys, was beaten terribly
over the head with a billiard cue, and
Bradford and Bonner, who were trying
to defend him, were both badly hurt
by spittoOns which struck them on the
head. making ugly wounds, from which
the blood flowed freely.
When the fight was at its hottest, the
police entered and arrested the COM
batants. both white and colored, and
restored order. The southerners were
taken to the Office of the police sur
geon, where their wounds were dressed.
Williams and Freeman are both seri-
ously hurt, but it is not believed that
either are fatally injured.
