FURIOUS RACE RIOT
 IN NEW YORK STREETS
MORE THAN 25O POLICE RE- SERVES ARE CALLED OUT
 TO OUELL IT.

Many shots Fired in the "San Juan
 HiIP District and Several Persons
 Injured-TroubIe Starts With Arrest
 of White Man for Attacking Color
 ed Lad-Torrents of Missiles Hurled
 From Roofs and windows-Over n
 Thousend Men, Boys and Women En-
 gage in Combat.
 New York, July 14.-"San Juan Hill" the district bounded by Amsterdam and West End avenues and e1st street and 6Sd street, so-called because of it's mo- toriety as battle ground, was the scene tonight Of furious race riot which required the reserves of no less than seventeen police precincts, mum bering more than 25O men to quell, after many shots had been fired and several persons had been seriously injured. Even after the actual fighting had been suppressed only the presence of strong guards Of polio patroling the nighbor- hood prvented the renewal of hostilities.
 The trouble began shortly after g o'clock when policeman arrested Ed ward Connolly for attacking colored lad named Henry Williams and was pursued to the station house with his prisoner by a mob of Connelly's friends nurling showers of stones, bottles and other missiles. When the station house reserves turned out the whole neighbor- hood was in an unroar and blacks en- gagged in desperate struggles in the streets, and torrents os missiles were hurled from roofs and windows. With in ten minutes not less than thou sand men, boys and women, black and white, were engaged in furious com bat. The small party of police was poWerless and achievements were called for from the three nearest pre- cincts. On their arrival cordon was drawn around the while district and strong patrols made repeated charges down the streets In a vain effort to re- store order They succeeded in mak- ing a few prisoners but were forced to retreat, fighting every inch of the way, and pursued to the station house by a desperate mob .ss4 s5
 The worst of the fighting seemed to be in sgd street where from every win- dow and roof rained missiles while hun dreds of shots were fired That no one was killed is amazing. Roundsnan Patrick Walsh was knocked down by Joseph B. Smith, a negro, who leaped upon him from a stoop and after att tempting to shoot him struck him re- peatedIy with the butt of his revolver Walsh was finally rescued by his com rades and sent to the hospital from which ambulances were dispatched to the scene. 5
 Inspector Mclaughlin arrived shortly before o'clock and sent hurry calls for reserves from as far north at 125th street, and as far south as Leonard street; from the eastside and from the westside. Tn all there were more than 260 under command of the inspector in twenty minutes. They walked from Westend avenue to Amsterdam, clear ing the roofs, and found that many chimneys had been torn to pieces to furnish ammunition to the rioters. More arrests were made and several whites and negroes were rescued from gangs of assailants, but desultory com- bats continue. -.....

GOLF LINKS MURDER
Hopes of Police That Assassin May Be
 Caught in the West.

Belmont, Mass, July 1.-The police officials, who since yesterday have been Investigating the murder of Mrs. Mar china Schidlofska, of Brockton, to- night anxiously awaited news from the west, where they have endeavored to bring about the arrest of the wOman's husband, John Schidlofska, otherwise known as John Cline, a Polish barber The officials were not active here to- night, as they have practically cleared up the entire case, so far as the Bel mont end of it is concerned.

SENSATIONAL SCENE IN NEW YORK LEGISLATURE
LAWMAKERS FAIL TO GET SATIS-
 FACTION FROM EDITOR.

Irving Wardman of the Press Declares
 He Does Not Know Who Wrote Article Asserting That Both Political
 Pressure and ''BoodIe" Were Being
 Invoked in Behalf of Justice Hooker
 Other Members of Editorial Stan
 Ordered sO Appenr Albany. N. Y. July 14.-Editor-in- chief Irving wardman of the New York Press was the storm center this afternoon of one of the most senea- tional scenes enacted in the State leg islature in many years. Ills persist. ent refusal to give the reasons for his l expressed belief that some members of i the legislature had been the subject of ] improper influence in connection with ! the trial of charges against Supreme Court Justice Warren B, Hooker pro- duced intense excitement and the ques- l tion of the disposal of his case has en- l tirely overshadowed in interest here + IO~1llBMlh lIIG illSiLkGI Ol lt1G against Justice Hooker. Incidentally, 1 the situation has raised far reaching f questions as to the status and powers I of the present joint session; it's author I ity as session to issue subpoenas or infiict penalties. There is a wide di- yergence of opinion among the lawyers in the legislature. This extraordinary situation devel- oped most unexpectedly out of the de- sire of some members of the legisla- tiire to learn who was the author of day in which it was asserted that both political pressure and poodle were being invoked. in behalf of Justice Hooker to prevent his removal from office as justice of the Supreme court. ! Mir. Wardmsn appeared in person and declared that tre article rad appeared during his absence on a vacation and 1 he did not know who wrote 1t.
 1 He was instructed to teieprone dur 1 ing the recess to his managing editor, and ask him who wrote the article.
 II will ask him." said MT. Wardman, 'ibut don't believe he will tell me-" l In the afternoon Mir. Wardman an- nounced that Mir. Hennessey had re- fused the information desired.
 When you asked Mir. Hennessey and he refused" MT. Wardman was asked, "what did you say to rim?'
 T told him that radn't for mo- ment imagined he would tell me-" re- piled Mir. Wardman.
 The feature of the afternoon session was dramatic deadlock between Mir. 1 Wardman in tn witness chair and As- semblyman Wade of Jamestown, who assumed the place of inquisitor.
 MT. Wade pressed the witness to the utmost, but. failed to elicit any infor- mation either as to the writer of the article or as to the informants who hald led MT. Wardman to his expressed belief that corrupt means had actually been resorted to.
 1 Confronted with this situation the | leaders hesitated, plainly at a loss what to do. MT. Wardman was ex- cused, but instructed to return next Monday night; to which hour the ses- sion adjourned. Meanwhile, subpoenas were ordered to be served upon the i managing and night editors of the Press and upon the copy editor, who ] was not named and of whom MT. Wardman had testified there were a dozen or more. They were instructed l furthermore to bring with them the | original manuscript of the article ob- | jeeted to.
