MUCH PROPERTY In RUINS

Mob's Damage Estimated at $4,000,
Especial Attention Being Given to
Places Owned by the Better Glass
Of Greeks-Casualties Number Five
Suffering From Gunshot Wounds
and Score From Other injuries.
Omaha, Feb 23.-As a result of
racial rioting In South Omaha most
OF the 5000 Greek residents of that
ing lasted fully twelve hours and the
roll OF casualties is five persons suf-
fering with gunshot wounds, eleven
Greeks SO badly beaten that they were
taken to hospitals for treatment and
about fifteen other persons suffering
from assaults or as the result of mis-
directed missiles intended for the
Greeks, on whom the wrath of the
maddened horde was centered. The
financial loss resulting from the de-
struction of property by the mob is
pldceu dl p1o,VuU. NOt less tudn HV9
shops of Importance were almost
wholly wrecked, while sixteen smaller
ones escaped serious damage only be-
cause of their snallness.
The work of the mob was better
seen after the streets were finally
cleared and the damaged places looked
over. Especial attention was given to
the property OF the better class Of
the Greeks. Abe Cocoris, known as
the king of the Greeks" who owned
two fine bakeries and another smaller
shop, had little left to show for his
thriving business Of heretofore.
All three of the buildings he occu-
pied were smashed, exterior and in
terror alike, and his stocks of goods

Much other Property Destroyed.


One saloon, found later to be the
property of a Roumarian, was demol-
ished, while numerous smaller stores,
shoe shining parlors and shops re-
ceived similar treatment. Three ho-
tells, one of which was burned to the
many of the Greek workmen, were
harshly treated The homes of not
less than a dozen Greeks who have
families were visited and in one in
stance the avengers entered and de
stroyed the furniture, threw cooking
viands from a heated stove and mall
treated the wife of the house and her
small babe.
The riots developed the fact that
nearly every Greek in the city is
armed. In not less than six instances
did they show themselves prepared to
defend their rights and fired into the
crowds indiscriminately. Fortunately
none of the shootings resulted seri-
ously. 1t was sufficiently severe, how
ever, to raise the wrath of the mob to
an even higher pitch than before and
especial vengeance was wrought by
the crowd at places where the Greeks
showed display Of firearms. An
other noticeable feature was the per
sistence with which many women
urged the rioters on.
The immediate cause of the trouble
was the killing on Friday night of
Policeman Edward Iowery by John
Masuredes, a Greek, whom the officer
had placed under arrest A mass
meeting, called by petition signed by
hundreds of citizens, was held and
fiery speeches were made suggesting
various ways of ridding the city of
undesirable" Greeks. The rioting
followed.
