General Quentin Bandera, who great
ly distinguished himself in the Cuban
war for independence, had left AFRO
yo Arenas, IL miles west Of Havana,
with about 20 insurgents, whom num-

Havana. The next day it was reported
that Bandera had been wounded in
the head in a skirmish.
Bandera was about 60 years old. He
took part in the ten years war, as
well as in the war for Cuban indie
pendence. He was well Known in
every province Of Cuba and had great
influence with the negroes. When in
Havana, Bandera was in the habit of
gathering crowds Of negroes about
him and making speeches to them on
the ingratitude of republics. On
one occasion he went to the senate
chamber and delivered violent
speech criticising the government for
not giving him an Office. Soon af-
terwards he was appointed doorkeep-
er of the house of parliament. The
position which Bandera aspired to was
that of chief Of police.

CRUSHED BETWEEN Autos.

Francis William Ford, a civil engineer
and formerly a city surveyor, OF 4 Mount

in an automobile accident in Pelham avenue,
east OF the Bronx River. He was standing
behind the machine while his brother
Harold and the chauffeur, William j..

repairing it, when another machine crashed
into il from the rear and crushed him.
The owner OF the second machine told
Harold Ford that he was Otto F.. Fleisch-
mann, secretary Of the Fleischmann Baking
Company at 1888 Broadway.
The accident occurred in a dark and
lonely spot, with no houses anywhere near,
The Fords had stopped to investigate a
rattle in their machine. II had lights in
the rear, but apparently they were not seen
by the second automobile, which, the Fords
say, crashed into IL at high speed. The
occupants Of the second auto, two men and
two women, when they saw hat Ford was
injured badly, did all in their power TO make
him comfortable. When he had been
wrapped in a blanket, his brother n chauf-
feur took him in the machine, which was

until the hospital notified the Coroner's

his detectives out to find the occupants of
the second machine. Acting on the story
told to Clerk Engerfield Of the Fordham
hospital, they learned later, they say, that
the machine was owned and driven by
Otto Fleischmann and that his brother
Charles was with him. They were on their

morning in an effort to get at an employees
known as a regulator. The man. IL ID
said, started the row by sousing the people
with water from a hose. Police reserves
had to be called out to quiet the disturbance
The Edison plant Is next doc to the Flitn
District Municipal Court. The trouble De-
gan Just before Justice Murray arrived
yesterday forenoon. A large number OF
men, mostly Jews, with q scattering OF
women, were standing In front OF the court
building awaiting the opening OF court az
Q o'clock, when a man emerged from the
Edison plant with a hose and began to
sprinkle the sidewalk and the walls OF the
building. Wetting the Sidewalk merely
made the few who stood in front OF l62
move over in front Of the court. But sud-
denly the man with the hose elevated the
nozzle and the water fell on the closely
packed crowd.
Trouble started Immediately. The water
soaked the clothes Of several men through
and through. They approached the wielder
Of the hose to demonstrate with him. Fore
most among them was Louis Schluss OF Is
Attorney street. He says that the hose
man replied to his protests by striking him
in the faoe with his fist, and several wit
nesses bear out Sohluss's statement.
On the opposite side Of the Edison plant

the Edison man grabbed him, tearing on
his shirt, and then ran into the building.
He hen ahmed the iron gates shut and
defed the crowd.
The Infatuated people made a rush at
the gates and were greeted with pals of
water. This treatment only increased their
anger. The gates were badly bent when
reserves in command Of Roundsman Frye
arrived from the Delaney street police
station. The crowd fell back at the APP
proach Of the reserves.
When IL came to making arrests the
police were stumped. There seemed to be
no leaders OF the mob, and the angry
Hebrews had done little or no damage
anyway. The only man who had qualified
for arrest, apparently, was the Edison
employee, and he could not be spared,
as he was in charge OF the machinery.
So no arrests were made.
This Is not the first trouble in front OF
the Edison plant, although on previous
occasions the Hebrews have been more
