NEGRO RAN AMUCK;
SHOT 29 PERSONS
Fired at Every Person in Sight
and is Finally Killed,

Monroe, La. Aug. 25.-Angered, it is
believed because two of his friends
had recently been shot by police Off
GERS in this city, William S. Wade. a
negro, ran amuck on the principal
business street of Monroe with dou-
BILE barreled shotgun, shooting first at
every white man he saw, and then
firing indiscriminately at every object
before him.
The fire was returned, and the ne
gro finally fell dead with a bullet
through his heart, but not before
twenty-nine men, three Of them mem
bers of his own race, had been more
or less seriously wounded.
Wade's body was publicly burned
after it had been cut down from a
pole on which it hung half an hour
after he was killed. An investigation
showed that when Wade purchased
the shotgun and a box of shells a few
minutes before he opened fire on the
first white man that there was nothing
in his manner to cause alarm. Other
negroes who were with him say that
he had not been drinking.
