TORCH APPLIED, SCORES HURT.
Homes Of Greeks Attacked by Infur
lated Mob Following Mass Meeting.

: Omaha, Feb. 22.-Three persons were
shot, score of others injured by
heavy missiles, and many houses
partly destroyed by fire and axes last
night as the result of a race riot be-
tween hundreds of men of South On1a-
ha and the members of the Greek
colony there.
The attack on the Greeks followed a
mass meeting where violence was
urged by the speakers, among whom
were two members of the state legis-
lature and a former city attorney. The
meeting was called after hundreds of
men had signed a petition in which the
Greeks were charged with serious
crimes against girls and women.
The speakers referred to the mur-
der of Patrolman Edward Lowery. who
was shot and killed ON Friday by a
Greek whom he had placed under ar
rest. The slayer had been arrested
while in the room of an American girl.
March Upon Greeks Begins.
When the meeting broke up, with the
intention of meeting again last night, a
crowd Of more than 1000 men started
toward the quarters Of the foreigners
in the neighborhood of Twenty-sixth
and @ streets. They were determined
to punish some Of the leaders of the
Greeks, but when two of the mob.
Frank Sweeney and Joseph Gamble,
both young boys, were injured in the
attack on the first house by shots fired
from the interior, some began to ap-
ply the torch.
Two blocks east another crowd
smashed the front of a saloon and at
tempted to pillage the interior, when
squad of police charged the crowd
and prevented the mob from securing
the liquor.
A third crowd rushed to Twenty
fourth and L streets and attacked
confectionery store run by Demos
Bros. The big plate glass windows
were quickly smashed, the doors kicked
in, and the stock and showcases de-
stroyed. Mrs. Mary Demos and her
aged father We're in the store and
both narrowly escaped death at the
hands Of the mob.
Police Are Caught Unawares.
The three attacks were made almost
simultaneously and the destruction
was complete before Chief OF Pol1ce
Briggs could get his scattered force to-
gether and stop the depredations.
Meantime, Sheriff Bailey was notified
and collected all the deputies possible
and rushed them to South Omaha to
aid the police. 1t took some time 10
get the force organized and during the
interval Greeks were attacked on every
hand. g.
The members of the mob assaulted
many Italians and Roumanians, who
were mistaken for Greeks.
The lawlessness lasted for three
hours before semblance of quiet
could be restored. The police gained
control about o'clock, but were unable

sonnel, but even in material.
| During your world cruise you have
taken your regular gunnery practice;
skilled tho you were before with guns.
you have grown more skillful still; and
thru practice you have Improved in
battle tactics, tho here there Is more
room for Improvement than in your
gunnery. Incidentally suppose hard
| ly need say that one measure OF yssV
fitness must be your clear recognition
of the need always steadily to strive
and render yourselves more fit; IT you
ever grow to think you are MT enough,
you can make up your minds that from
that moment you will begin to go back

LAS a war machine the fleet comes
back in better shape than 1t went out.
In addition you, officers and men Of
this formidable fighting force have
| shown. yourselves best OF all the posi-
BILE ambassadors and heralds OF peace.
Wherever you have landed you have
| borne yourselves so as to make US AZ
home proud Of being your country
men. You have shown that the pest
| type of fighting man OF the sea knows
f, how to appear to the utmost possible
advantage when his business is-to be-
have himself on shore, and to make .
good impression in a foreign land. We
are proud of all the ships and all the
men in this whole feet. We welcome
