THOUSANDS ATTACK POLICE.
$50 BIuecoats Required to QueII Rio

New York, July 15.--"isan Juan hill
the district bounded by Amsterdam
and West End avenues and Sixty first
and Sixty-third streets, so called be-
cause of its notoriety as a battle
ground. was the scene last night of a
furious race riot. which required $50
policemen to quell ii after many shots
had been fired and several persons had
been seriously injured.
The trouble began shortly after 9
O'Clock, when policeman arrested Ed
ward Connolly for attacking Henry
Williams. negro, and was pursued
to the station house with his prisoner
by mob of Connelly's friends, who
hurled showers of stones and other
missiles.
When the station house reserves
turned out the whole neighborhood was
in an uproar and the blacks engaged
in desperate struggles in the streets.
Missiles were hurled from roofs and
windows.
Within ten minutes not less than 4
thousand men, boys and women, black
and white, were engaged in furious
combat The small party of police
| were powerless, and reinforcements
were summoned. On their arrival a
Gordon was drawn around the whole
district, and strong patrols made re-
| peated charges down the streets IN
vain effort to restore order.
They succeeded in making few
prisoners and We're forced to retreat,
fighting every inch of the way. and
pursued to the station house by
bowling mob.
The worst of the fighting was In
Sixty second street, where from every
window and from every roof rained
| missiles while hundreds of shots We're
! fired. Roundsman Patrick Walsh was
knocked down by Joseph B. Smith, q
| negro who leaped upon him from
a stoop, and after attempting to shoot
him struck him repeatedly with the
butt of his revolver. Walsh finally was
rescued by his comrades.
Inspector Mclaughlin arrived shortly
before o'clock, and realizing how
widespread was the danger. sent hurr!
| calls for reserves from as far nortn
as One Hundred and Twenty-hftn
street. and as far south as Leonard
street. from the east side ana from
4 the west side. In all there were more
| than $50 men under command OF the
| inspector within twenty minutes
1 Suuads of men were then sent along
tho roofs of the houses in Sixty-second
street. where the fighting seemed heaV-
| lest They walked from West Elo
avenue to Amsterdam, clearing the
roofs. and found that many chimneys
had been torn to pieces to furnish aln-
munition for the rioters, and IN the
corners of roofs were mounds OF
bricks. pottery and bottles.

HOW PAUL JONES WAS FOUND

New York. July 15.--General Horace

cannot express our surprise at the re-
markable preservation of the body.
"Clothed in winding sheet of linen,
the arrangement of the coffin tailed
exactly with the historical documents
that told Of the careful preparation to
ship the body to the, United States, as
was the first idea. There was tin foil
over the hands and face and the inter-

BUYING FOR FALL is LARGE
Preparation for the Fall and Winter
Trade Is On An Usually Large
scale-situation in the Industrial
centers is Better Than the Average
Other News.

New York, July 15.-R. G. Dun q
Co.'S weekly review Of trade today
says:
,Seasouable merchandise goes into
consumption more freely than usual,
retail trade exceeding expectations at
many points, and preparations for ran
and winter business are on a liberal
scale. except in a few agricultural
communities where there is a disposl-
ton to wait definite assurances re-
garding the crops. The official report
was more encouraging as to grain ana
later dispatches to this paper from the
principal farming centers indicate that
good results are being obtained Mali
ufacturers' reports are irregular, the
cotton industry being unsettled by the
rise in raw material; wooden mills
have a similar, but less sensational,
obstacle; footwear shops are shipping
less freely, but have maintained their
level Of prices, and current dullness IN
pig iron does not weaken confidence IN
an early resumption of liberal pur-
chases. Dun's index number /, July /,
was $9s,312 against $9S,75s month
earlier, and $97,192 a year ago. Prices
of commodities had not felt the dull
effect of the rise in cotton at that
date, while the usual midsummer
abundance cheapened garden prod
ucts. Railway earnings for the first
week of July exceeded last years by
So per cent, and foreign commerce at
this port for the last week showed
gain of $520,462 In imports and S5S,-
4S9 in exports, as compared with the
corresponding week of 1904. Mercan-
| tile conditions have improved
There is a remarkable contrast In
dullness and weakness of the raw ma
terial structural steel being so urgent
| ly sought that premiums are some
times paid for quick deliveries and
producers are considering the advisa-s
bility of a general advance in list pri-
ces. Many large building contracts
have appeared during the week, the
tonnage of new bridge work being a
| feature.
| Recent large transactions in hides
strengthened the tone and future adj
vances are recorded in light weights.
Failures this week were 223 in the
United States, against 225 last year,
and rs in Canada, compared with 20
year ago.

CROP PROSPECTS GOOD.
Large But Not Record Breaking
Yields Expected.

New York, July lb.--BradStreetS to-
day says: The midsummer influences
still govern general trade and indus-
tries, but better weather and crop re-
ports make for quite optimistic trade
reports in the surplus crop producing
sections of the west. Favorable re-
ports as to the fall trade orders come
from nearly all points west of the AL
leghenies, north Of the Ohio river and
thence westward to the Pacific. Large
though, except in a few cases, not
record breaking conditions now appear
reasonably assured in that entire sec
ton and there is general agreement
that fall business already booked ex-
sceeds year ago at this date.
A point deserving note is the wide
spread activity in demand for cotton
goods of all kinds, which steadily adj
vances. Other textiles are also
strong. Lumber, brick and hardware
reflect the continuance of unpreceden-
ted activity in construction yards.

Threaten College Democracy.

Dean Says Luxurious Oormitor'os
Threaten College Democracy.
New Haven, Conn, July 15.--Dean
Wright. Of the Yale academic depart
ment yesterday reported to President
Hadley that one of the worst evils IN
Yale Is the segregation of rich students
in expensive dormitories. He said:
perhaps the most serious evil con-
nected with this segregation OF the
welltto-do students is that 1t brings
together, especially in the sophomore
wear, those who aim to form the So
ciety sets, whose chief purpose in coll
slege is popularity and social recogni-
tion. and to whom for this reason the
claims of scholarship become secon-
dairy.
Pay For Social Prestige.
$50 many Of the men who have be-
come members of the Junior and sem
Tor societies have lived in these sec
lions that there is a more cor less pre-
valent feeling that to room there helps
ones chances for social advancement
and this undoubtedly is true.
"Fathers in selecting rooms for their
sons sometimes frankly say that they
prefer the more expensive in these
quarters that their DOyS may iioI VIC . :
social disadvantage among their
classmates.
But if the social honors of college
are to have any value all men should
have an equal chance to gain them.
The Yale spirit of fairness is offended
when honors are bestowed upon an IN
ferior man, who, because of wealth or
superior location or the influence OF
friends, has had an unfair advantage
over his fellows.
In the earlier college years student
may and often does pass for what he
is not, but the intimacies of college life
reveal his good and bad qualities, and
by the end of his senior year he is es-
timated correctly by his classmates, IL
not by the faculty, at what he really
