NEGRO PROBLEM
IS DISCUSSED At
FRIENDS MEETING
Speaker Says Jeffries- johnson
Fight Led to Attacks on
f. Innocent Persons.

OCEAN GROVE, July 1.-THE num-
Der Of Quakers in attendance upon the
biennial session of their General Con-
ference was increased by many acces-
sions to the ranks of over-Sunday
visitors. At the same time some took
their departure. Among the latter was
DR.. Jesse H. Holmes, Of Swarthmore
College, who goes to prepare for a trip
to Berlin. Germany, to represent the
Society of Friends at the International
Congress of Religious Liberals. Though
born a Friend. and tracing his Quaker
ancestry back to the time Of George
Fox, DR.. Holmes has associated him
self with the more liberal thinkers
among the Quakers, and is known to-
day among them as "the acknowledged
prophet OF the Hicksite Friends"
The interests of the colored people
are being well cared for by this con-
ference. An exhaustive report of work
anicng that race by the Friends was
made by Anna Jackson. The latter
IN her paper said: statistics prove
that while in many sections of the
South the educational facilities are
not what they ought to b. for n
class Of children, the Improvement IN
the schools for colored children has
not kept pace with the increased OPP
p~ortunities in the schools for The
whites. South Carolina spends six
times. per capita, as much on the white
child as she does on the black one.
North Carolina appropriates only s1.5o
q year for the colored child's educa-
ton. II the negro is to have even a
smattering chance for an education the
work Of the free schools in the South
must be supplemented by Northern
PHILANTHROPY"
Superintendent Jackson made refer
ence to the Jeffries-Johnson prize fight
in these words: W meet just now
In a time Of race ferment. Because
two big animals, made In the image
Of the living God. chose to pummel
each other for sake of gain. and the
man with the black skin could pummel
harder and longer than the man with
the white skin, innocent colored men,
women and children are being as
saulted." Superintendent Jackson's re-
port was supplemented with two
strong addresses by colored educators

Aeld School, Aitken. S. c.. and DR.. w.

the same age, were arrested at the
Hotel Loder and soon afterward con-
fessed the deed.
Lieutenant Stewart is in the South
Side Hospital. in a serious condition,
and is not likely to survive. The
bandits deny that they themselves did
the shooting, placing the blame for it
on Edward McDonough, who, they say.
aided them in the hold-up. but escaped.
The arrest resulted from information
given to the police by Michael McDon-
ough, a bright-eyed 15-year-old brother
of the alleged third man of the gang.
AS the Mount Washington car was
speeding along Weedville ven the
motorman suddenly saw a couple of
men jump from the roadside into the
track. He stopped his car. a revolver,
was showed at him through the. Mat
form and he was ordered to hold up
his hands and did so.
Lieutenant Stewart was riding in the
car. and, hearing voices, left It by the
rear platform and approached the men
at the front end Stewart supposed
them to be drunk.
You are under arrest!" called Stew
art, and instantly a fusillade of bullets
poured in his direction. Stewart fell,
but while on his back drew his revolver
and began to shoot. The bandits fed.
A general police alarm brought scores
of officers to the West End district. A
few hours later, near the scene of the
hold-up. the police came across the
bright-eyed boy. who said he was
Michael McDonough, and volunteered
the names of the bandits, of them
his brother. The two were located at
the Hotel Yoder, n were arrested in,
bed and hurried to the South Side po-
lice station, where young McDonough
at once identified them. They were
taken to the hospital. but could not be
identified by Lieutenant Stewart, be-
cause he was unconscious Fifteen min
utes in separate cells they loosened
their tongues and both confessed, after
being subjected to a third degree by
the police.
