Milwaukee. Wis. Nov. 16.-Half a
dozen colored men sitting by them
selves at separate table when a
banquet in connection with the Men
and Religion Forward Movement was
given at the Young Mems Christian
association building looked rather
strange to the other delegates who
saw indications of race discrimina-

The notion gained belief when they
saw colored preacher from Madi-

sat down again, scowling and then
rose once more. A few stage whisp-
cred words passed and he took his
seat at the colored mems table.
A few minutes later he got up to
talk and one of the first remarks he
made was that 'there are no black
seats in heaven" Then there were
more violent motions from the color
ed table for him to take new tack.
Still he hinted at discrimination until,
needing the murmurs of the other
changed his address into a plea for
the cooperation of white people in
religious work among negroes.
The Rev. George ]. Fox, pastor Of
the Calvary (colored) Baptist church,
said that his race had not been dis
eliminated against; that he had made
special request for separate table
prior to the banquet as he thought
the men Of his congregation would
feel more at home at q table Of their
own.

Snub

New York, Nov. 16-Edward Starr,
champion rider of Austria" formerly
second lieutenant in a cavalry regi-
ment of Vienna. today filed in the SUI
preme court an action for $25,OOO
damages against Miss Helen McMur-
ray, daughter of c. F. McMurray, a
wealthy retired manufacturer of Troy,

charges that Miss McMurray Won his
heart, promised to marry him and
then Tilted him. without even an en-
PLANTATION of her reasons for not keep
ing her promise.

wealthy Vienna banker. The girl

beautiful society favorite and heir
ess to the fortune her father accumu-
IN Troy. They spend most of their

Refused an Interview
Starr came to New York last July in
search of his alleged fiancee and he
is still searching for her. He went to
the Gotham hotel to see Miss McMur-
ray. But he failed to see her, he
alleges. because her parents kept her
in their apartment and later went
away with her without permitting him
to have an interview.
Starr is now living here with friends.
Through his attorney, Hugo Ritter
busch. he today made this statement:
The breach of promise suit would
never have been started If I was not
convinced that Miss McMurray has
been unduly Influenced against me by
her parents. The action is brought as
a last resort to get in communication
with her. l have tried my best to get
a talk with her or reach her by let
ter. but have not succeeded. If I
could hear from her directly. the court
proceedings would be stopped. 1t is
not a question of money. but Of vindi-
cation"
Mr.. Ritterbusch said:
This is no 'Ruzzlelamb' case. 1t
Is meritorious action, but I do not
care to discuss 1t. Mr.. Starr and Miss
are both intelligent. con-
