IN A REAL BATTLE.
Colored Cavalry Charges on Washing
ton Militiamen During
Maneuvers.

Tacoma, Wash, July 1S.-[Special.l-
There was real battle at the maneuver
camp Saturday afternoon when negro
troopers of the Ninth cavalry charged
the troops Of the Washington National
guard with drawn sabers, sashing right
and left.
Three members Of the Second Wash
ington and one Of the Nineteenth lnIan-
try, regular army, were severely wound
cd by saber cuts.
The trouble arose over the action Of
the lmpires in ruling Troop Il OF the
Ninth cavalry out of action.
The Ninth cavalry, the Nineteenth IN
fantry and the First and Second req,
ments of the Washington National guard
have been engaged in field maneuYers
similar to those held near Fort KllGN'
Kan, last year, and the feature, or the,
last day was n sham battle IN when an
the state troops and regulars took part.
Negroes Charge the Guards.
When the umpire decided Troop + out
of the game under the rules, the negro
troopers, excited by the heat Of mimic
battle and angry at being put out of the
eamc, charged upon the third battalion
of the second Washington with drawn
sabers. Slashing right and left among
the infantrymen, the cavalry created
scene Of terror for n few minutes
1t was real war to The minds OF the
troopers who dashed among the defense,
less militiamen, their horses snorting and
rearing and the riders with blood IN Their
eyes, cutting with their sharp swords on
every side.
Four Soldiers Cut Down.
During the melee three members Of the
Second Washington and one regular OF
the Nineteenth infantry were seriously
injured Attempting to strike every III
fantryman within reach, the troopers
caused the men on foot to seek safe
places or ondeavor to protect themselves.
Had ball cartridges been in use not one
Of the horsemen would have escaped.
Although in extreme danger the Wash
ington militia and co. a and Go. Of
the Nineteenth infantry, which were on
the extreme left flank. acted with cool
ness and precision and soon drove the
troopers from the field.
In the melee two OF the coIored troop
crs' horses running at full speed colllded
head on. One Of the animals was 50
badly injured about the head that It died
in short time.
