NEGRO REMAINS
IN AMERICAN BAR
But Resignation Of One In

ton Again Today.

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 2S.-Hereafter
when negro attorneys apply for mem
bership to the American Bar associa-
ton their race must be made known in
the application according to resolu-
ton adopted by the association. Attor-
ney General George w Wickersham, in
a heated debate declared the resolution
recognized the status. as members. OF
William II. Lewis, assistant to the at
torney general, and two other negro
members who have been unseated by
the executive committee.
The race question 'precipitated a fight
which was abruptly ended by an appeal
Of former Secretary Of War Jacob NJ.

discussion would bring criticism against
the association.
Mr.. WiCkersham said
Il hope this resolution win pass. for
| IT recognizes the legality of these ne
gro members. 1t was | who was chief

up"
Scores of members protested against
adoption OF the resolution, saying it had
always been the policy to exclude ne
gro members. Others said that while

clude the admission of more negro
members because their color would be

The resolution offered by Mr.. Dick

Whereas three persons Of the col
ored race were elected to membership
in this association without knowledge
upon the part Of those electing them
that they were OF that race and are
now members Of this association.
Resolved. That as it has never been
contemplated that members Of the col

ellis are directed. if al any time any
OF them shall recommend a person OF
the colored race for membership. to ac-
company the recommendation with a

such race"
The question arose in a special re-
port Of the executive committee de

settled practice OF the association to
elect only white men as members. ct
three negro members, including William
II. Lewis an assistant to the United

THROAT CUT While
RESISTING JAIL
IMITATION
BOB YATES USES KNIFE ON FEL-
LOW PRISONER WHO OBJECT
ED TO BEING "lNITlATED"

What appeared to be a very serious
cutting, occurred in the city Jail at
one o'clock today, when a negro, Bob
Yates, recently re-captured city
prisoner, drove knife blade
two and half inches long into
the throat of Leroy jackson, another
negro, who had but a few moments
before been locked in the same cell
with Yates, on a charge of assault
and battery on Nina Hail.
When seen by News representa-
tive a few minutes after the cutting
the wounded man was standing at the
bars near the Jail door, with his cloth
ing completely saturated with blood,
from head to feet, and the blood still
flowing from the cash in his throat.
When asked who cut him and why,
he said "big Bob cut me because |
refused to be initiated"
When Bob Yates was asked why
he cut the man, he said that it was the
rule to initiate all new prisoners, and
when Jackson was put in the cell he
told the new-come" he ElU-c be Initial
ed, TO which jackson objected and at
once began, as Yates said, to pound
me over the head" whereupon Yates
grabbed a knife, which was lying Oh
top of the cage, and cut Jackson.
DR.. MoInger was called = attend the
wounded man. and he was removed to
South Mississippi Infirmary. After
making an examination, the doctor
pronounced the wound not danger
Gus, the most serious consequence be-
ing the loss of blood which he soon
stanched.

POLICEMAN WHITE
NO! SERIOUSLY
WOUNDED
JACKSON OFFICER RECEIVED
FLESH WOUND IN KNEE-sHoT
BY NEGRO LATER MoBBED
Special to The Nel0S.

Special to The NeUS.
Jackson, Miss, Dec. 1S.-Officer Joe
White, oldest member of the Jackson
police force, who was shot through
the knee by negro desperate named
Joe Beeman on Mill street shortly be-
fore the noon hour yesterday, will be
able to resume his duties within few
days.
Examination by physicians showed
that White received merely flesh
wound, the bullet glancing around the
lone just below the knee cap.
Post mortem over the body of Bee
man, who was shot to death by off
GERS and citizens after his encounter
with the officer, showed thirty-three
bullet wounds on his body.
In describing his experience with the
desperate, Officer White says that the
negro had the pistol pressed against
his abdomen, and he escaped getting
a bullet through his intestines only by
grasping the trigger and making a
desperate struggle, the weapon being
finally discharged when the muzzle
was downward
The first plan of the officers after
they surrounded the house in which
the negro had taken refuge was to set
| the structure afire, and they had called
out the fire department to prevent the
flames from spreading to adjoining
property, when one of the officers
caught glimpse of the desperate near
window and opened the fusilade that
did not cease until Beeman's body had
been riddled with bullets.
