GEORGIA CONGRESSMAN
WHIPS INSOLENT NEGRO
Judge S. A. ROddenbery lni-
tiates Washington Black
Into the FiStic Science
Nv RALPH SMITH

WASHINGTON, d. c.. June "A
husky, unknown, but impudent and inso-
lent Washington negro is today carry
ing a pair Of blackened eyes and a
badly bruised countenance as the result
of an encounter on a street car last
night with Congressman S. Anderson
Roddenbery of the Second Georgia dis
trict, who halls from Thomasville. Judge
Roddenbery who is one OF the "midgets"
of congress, weighs only 100 pounds, bur
the blows he rained upon the negro
face evidently made the black think he
had encountered cyclone. The fight
occurred in a street car just in front of
the postofice department
1t was witnessed by speaker Clark,
Congressman Bartlett and Hughes OF
Georgia, James and oJhnson. of Ken
lucky, and several other Democratic
leaders.
The car was crowded and the fight
caused much excitement. The negro ano
his lady friend left the car at the
next corner.
Judge Roddenbery came out of the
fray without a scratch, although the
negro, who weighed at least 175 pounds,
tried in vain to reach the Georgian's
face with his fists. The Georgian dis
played rare sparring science, succeed
blows, each time landing his punch. The
fight was stopped by Speaker Clark and
others.
Judge Roddeubery lives with his fam
lily at Cleveland Park, one of the Wash
lington suburbs. He was en- route home
from the Democratic caucus. 1t was
shortly after midnight and the car
was crowded with people coming from
the capitoi.
The negro boarded the car with a
woman shortly before it reached the
Ipostoflce department. Many people We're
standing but the woman succeeded in
wedgfng herself into the longitudinal
seat. Evidently anxious to make room
for her escort" the woman crowded,
making an opening of a few inches The
husky negro man tried to occupy this
scant space, which was next to Judge
Roddenbery. The bulk of the negro was
too great for the few inches, and Judge
Roddenbery firmly demonstrated with
him. The negro was insolent and be-
gan to use his elbow on the Georgian.
NEGRO is POUNDED.
In an instant Judge Rodenbery
'pasted" the negro a stunning blow
between the eyes and the fight was
on in earnest. The judge was on his
feet and so was the negro, who had
this slight advantage at the start. But
the advantage Of position and bulk en-
joyed by the black was discounted by
Rodenbery. The negro's blows were
ducked with facility.
The conductor rushed to the scene
of the disturbance and the motorman
stopped the car. The few women
aboard became excited and the men
pushed forward either to separate the
combatants or better to see the HOSTILE
ties.
Although Judge Rodenbery was
among friends, none interfered in the
fight, as it was evident that the why
little fellow from "Wiregrass Georgia
was more than a match for the big
black. Finally, when Judge Rodenbery
had asserted himself vigorously
enough, Speaker Clark and others in
tervened to save the darby from fur
Their punishment.

EMIGRATION POLICY
OUTLINED IN TREATY

TOXIC, May 1.-THE following is the
gist of the emigration policy adopted by
the japanese government, as a result Of
the conference of prefectural secretaries
just held at the foreign office:
The new Japanese-American treaty
will In no way change the policy of re-
stricting emigration of Japanese to the
mainlaid of the United States, Hawaii.
The so-called sending for a wife,"
which is getting more and more popular,
is really marriage contracted by exchange
of photographs. The government will
hereafter investigate more strictly the
applications of women who desire to go
abroad in this way, because they are Of
ten deceived by people abroad seeking to
hoodwink the authorities.
For the time being, the authorities will
allow from 100 to $50 men per steamer to
proceed to the Philippines, which region
is considered as promising for Japanese
emigration.
Applications to Mexico will be granted
within a certain limit.
