NEGROES VOICE PROTEST
AGAINST KEELING SUSPECT
Ask Mayor to Remoyo Dctcctivc-Ser-
Gcnnt Krcngcl for Shooting
One of nncc.


Voicing the sentiments, they assert,
or large part of their race. n dele
cation from tho Civic Improvement
League of Richmond. n negro organi-
@ation. appeared before Mayor George
.\insiic yesterday with tho request that
etcctiveScrgeant Fred L. Krengel DO
removed from his present position.
There Is no desire on the part Of the
league to have him dismissed from tho
police force. but II wishes him given
another position. on tho grounds that
no colorcd mans lifc Is safe when
runors of crime nrc unoat and tho
officer Is clothed with his present au-
thority.
The protest Is tho result OF the re-
cent shooting; OF Samuel Thompson,
coiorcd. who was Killed while resist
Ing arrest as II suspect In tho Chen
auit assault case. The communication
was handed to the Mayor. who. MS ex-
oiiicio chairman OF the Police Board,
VIII pass It on TO that body ut Its next
meeting.
Following Is tho text OF the petition:
honorable Sir.-It appearing from
newspaper accounts that n white lady,
Miss Fannie Chenault. of Seven Pines
iicnr'co County, Was assaulted near
her home on Saturday night. the 9th
instant, by some unknown person and
! held prisoner for three hours.
Tho day following. one Samuel
Thompson was shot three times and
fatally wounded by Detective Sergeant
Fred Krcnccl. In Attempting 10 arrest
the said Thompson for tho alleged
crime Notwithstanding that Thompson
was unarmed and was not the negro
wanted
Thompson did wear, however. a
black hat and ovcralls suit. rs many
lahorcrs do.
1T appearing further that some thir-
teen other coiorcd men have been
taken into custody for tho same Of
Tense, and that one John Clements was
on last Thursday rcarrcstcd on ad-
vice of Miss Chcnault. but she could not
find tmc TO Identify him as her assail-
ant until Monday-nearly four days
thereafter
Now. therefore, as colored mon.
some with mothers. wives. sisters and
daughters we deeply dcplore the out
rage on Miss Chenault and wish to
assure MI concerned that We stand
READY TO do all In our power to appre-
mend tho guilty party. regardless OF
color: but. as n civic league composed
81 men who arc taXpayinE. liberty
loving and law-ab!d!ng citizens OF one
OF the best cities OF tho South-the
city In which we believe the very best
OF racial feeling cxists-we feel called
upon 20 register our very earnest pro-
test In this most extraordinary case.
First. AGAINST the killing of sam
uci Thompson by Sergeant Krcngcl
for throwing rocks.
Second. AGAINST Sergeant Krcneel's
being retained In his present position:
but that he be given something elsa
10 do. as Thompson is the second inno-

reports. No colored mans life is sare
