FURIOUS RACE RIOT.
@san Juan Hip in New York Scene of
Bloodshed.

New York, July 15.-"San Juan Hill,
the district bounded by Amsterdam and
West End avenues and Forty-first and
Sixty-third streets, so called because Of
notoriety as a battle ground, was the
scene last night of furious race riot
which required the reserves of no less
than II police precincts, numbering more
that $50 men, TO quell after many shots
had been fred and several persons had
beer seriously injured. Even after the
actual lighting had been suppressed only
the presence Of strong guards of police
patrolling the neighborhood prevented
the renewal Of hostilities.
The trouble began shortly after nine
o'clock, when a policeman arrested Ed
ward Connolly for attacking a colored
lad, named Henry Williams, and was
pursued to the station house with his
prisoner BY mob Of Connelly's trends,
hurIing showers Of stones, bottles and
other missiles When the station house
reserves turned out the whole neighbor-
hood was in an uproar, torrents Of
missiles being hurled from roofs and
windows.
The worst Of the fighting seemed to
be in Sixty second street, where from
every window and from every roof mis-
siles rained and hundreds of shots were
fred. That no one was killed was amaz-
ing in view of the number of pistols
discharged Roundsman Patrick Walsh
was knocked down by Jos, B. Smith,
a negro, who leaped upon him from a
stoop and after attempting to shoot
him struck him repeatedly with the
butt Of his revolver Walsh was finally
rescued By his comrades and sent to
the hospital, from which ambuIances
we're despatched to the scene.
