NEGRO SOLDIER OBJECTED
 TO COST OF DINNER.
Preeipitated a Riot in .HarIenl-Near- ly 5000 Negroes Fought Police.

New York, Dec. 1.-The objections of a negro soldier to the cost of his dinner in a Harlem restaurant tonight precipitated a riot in which a mob of nearly five thousand negroes fought with the police and number of white men. Four policemen were injured. Three of the negroes were arrested.
 The negro soldier, Samuel Reeves off the Slocum was elected from a Lenox avenue restaurant after an ar gument with the cashier and began to make a speech outside. A crowd cf negroes gathered.
 A restaurant empioye. attempted to push Reeves away and the fight start eG.
 For nearly an hour the police re- serves who were immediately called out fought to disperse the crowd, hat tering heads right and left and wEile the negroes threw missiles of all kinds. At lhe height of the bat tie firemen responding to an alarm were compelled to pass through show CTS of broken bottles, pieces of as- phalt, and brick. Many store windows were shattered as well as the win dows of two street cars. A saloon near 137th street was almost complete ly wrecked. The police drew their re- volvers and fired in the air Ilt this attempt to frighten the mob roved ineffective and they resorted to their night sticks.
