RACE EloT IN HARLEM.
Fer Writes Injured by Bullets or
Razor Cuts.


New York, Dec. ga race skirmish
between whites and blacks in Harlem
during the day developed serious pro-
portions and kept the police busy for
% time. The negroes, 100 strong, were
armed with revolvers and clubs, while
equally as many whites used stones as
;weapone. The negroes had the I'D.
vantage but were driven back into
their tenements by the police after
they had charged on the whites With
pistols and razors. Fifteen negroes
were arrested. Four whites, including
a policeman, were badly shot or cut.
The rioting began when some white
boys stoned two cotored girls. where
upon dozen negroes seized the white
boys and beat them. The boys, when
released, told their story to white men
in the vicinity and an organized at
tack was made on the negroes. who
sWere driven back-tc their tenemente
sunder a shower of stones. The con-
fusion increased when the white men
began to lombard the tenement with
stones and other missiles, and the ne
2groes fired from their windows into
the crowd. The whites, surprised by
the shooting and seeing men fall
wounded, turned and ran, followed by
3the negroes, who used knives and
clubs freely.
! At this point a squad Of policemen
arrived on the scene and with drawn
clubs stopped the rioting, chasing the
negroes into their houses.
