RIOT IN
NEW YORK
NEARL 5000 PERSON MIX
IN FIERCE FIGHT.
WHITE AND BLACK MAN START
THE FIGHT AT A BALL
GAME.

| New York, Aug. 5.-The fighting ele
ment among the whites and blacks in
the vicinity or one Hundred and
| Thirty-sixth street and Fifth avenue
lined up according to their racial pref
udices again Sunday, this time to set.
tie a baseball dispute, and when the
argument was ended so persons re.
quired medical treatment and of that
number two will die. Probably 5000
persons took part in the fight, but the
300 policemen who dispersed the mob
after every one was fought out got
only nine prisoners, and of these two
were women. John McCue truck
driver, 80 years of age, and Matthew
Murtha, aged 35 years, an ice pedler,
received fractured skulls and were re.
moved to hospital in a dying condi-
ton. The injuries of the others rang
ed from broken ribs to serious razor
cuts.
The trouble started at a ball game,
when a white man and a cOlored man
had made wager and subsequently
quarreled over the settlement. Pres
emily the sight of white man and a
colored man fighting started a general
row, the crowd being about equally
divided in color. Every sort of weapon
was used, and for blocks the constantly
augmenting mob surged, while the po-
lice reserves from several precincts
hammered away with their clubs to
break the tangle.
Occupants of homes along the line
Of battle were not content to be spec
tatOrs only of the strife, and from
windows and points of vantage on the
roofs every piece of crockery and fur
niture that could be spared was hurled
down upon the heads OF the rioters
with reckless impartiality. Even wom-
en- and children joined the fray.
1t was two hours before the police
controlled the situation, and then
patrol wagons and ambuIances picked
up those who were too seriously worn
out to get away. Those most harmed
were taken to hospitals and the prs-
Cners were locked up charged with in
citing to riot.
Louis Conconcella, 81 years of age,
was victim of the blind fury of tho
rioters and will probably die of his
injuries. He was innocent of wrong
doing, but fell before a crowd deter,
mined to have revenge on some one.
A cry that a stranger had approach
ed girl with familiarity was enough
to STRAIT a mob.
George Kesner, a Russian bookbind-
er, was seized by the throat. The ex-
element attracted 500 men and wom-
en-, who fought with each other to get
a chance at the Russian. Thirty po-
icemen rescued Kesner, bleeding from
a score of wounds and when all his
but his shoes had been torn
from him. The police wrapped him in
a blanket and hurried him away. The
story of the attack was corroborated,
and the father of the girl says he saw
the girl III the grasp of the Russian.
But at the same time Hylo Saloda
nearly lost his scalp in Thirty.fourth
street. He was accused of giving pen
MES to a girl of II years. The father
wanted to know why, and Saloda
showed fight. He slashed about him
with a penknife and then knocked
down a policeman. A crowd of per
haps a thousand persons attempted to
reach Saloda, but reserves beat them
back and took Saloda to the station.

GOOD REVENUE FROM FORESTS
Receipts for Fiscal Year Double Those
of Preceding Year.

OF preceding year.
The total receipts from business in
the national forests for the fiscal year
ending June 30 were s1,529,91793,
more than double the receipts for the
preceding year, and the sum which
goes to the states and territories by
law, to swell the county school and
road funds where national forests are
located-10 per cent of the totals
also more than doubled, reaching the
considerable sum of $153,991.79 Rem
tails of grazing and other privileges
are the chief sources of income.
There is food for thought in the
fact that, except for Arizona, Califor-
mia and Utah, the states which de-
rive the greatest benefit from the re-
turns of forest management are Col
orado, Idaho, Montana Oregon, Wash
ington and Wyoming, the six states in
which congress last winter forbade
the addition of new national forests
except by it's own act. AS compared
with the figures of last year, Mon
tanas share, $20,655.42, is this year
over three times larger; Idaho's, $19,-
1922 almost three times; Oregon's,
$13,9S0S9, almost twice: Wyoming's,
SCOOPS, almost two and one-half
times.
Totals by states.

tails for each state and territory and

Modern Damon and Pythias Act Ends
in Pathos.

III FdtnOSs
Pacific Grove, Cal, Aug. GA
curious instance of misdirected friend
ship, which involved a new offense
against military law, occurred at the
Preside of Monterey in connection
with the Pacific small arms competi-
ton which was finished Saturday. One
of the best soldiers among the en-
listed men and fifth in order of
craftsmanship at the opening of the
shoot was Sergeant H. Spree of Troop
e, Fourteenth cavalry. He had a
friend ambitious to obtain place on
the rifle team going to the Fort Sheri-
dan national competition.
His friend was less sure shot. The
rifle range at the Preside is cut
through a pine forest and Spree, hid
ing behind a convenient cover. fired
from there at target, at which his
friend was supposed to be aiming,
when the signal was given. the friend
firing wide so as not to show any
surplus of bullet marks. On one oc-
casi0n Spree withheld his fire too long
and his shot rang out after the rest of
the squad had ceased. This, OF course,
aroused the suspicion OF the authori-
ties and on investigation Spree was
and his name struck frofl the rolls of
the competition. He now awaits trial
for his novel offense.

RAILROAD TALK.

For three years, ever since the rich ness of the Panama valley was demon strated, an opportunity has been open for capital to earn great profits by con meeting by rail the Yukon river with the Panama mines. Had the Alaska Central people supplemented their work at the coast end of their line by building from the Yukon to the vicinity of Fairbanks and left the more difficult and costly part of their road till the last, they would now have an earning power that would give them immense prestige and make the financing of the whole under taking an easy matter. By the policy they have pursued they have made it positive that before they reach this slope of the Alaska range they will find the more profitable field occupied, and, if they come at all, they must come as competitors, fighting with money and superior facilities for recognition, rather than as dictator4 establishing their posi- tion by virtue of being first upon the ground.
 It was certain that this interior field would not remain long unoccupied. It is not doubted that the keen foresight of Falcon Joslyn had fully eonpre- hended the unusual opportunities be- fore he launched his Panama Mines rail- way scheme; and the proposal to extend that system to other important points in the Panama and to one CT more places on the Yukon comes as natural conse- qucuce. At the same time, it k a fact forcihly sent home that Joslyu has proved himself au organizer of marked ability.
