RIOT over A GIRL
Indians and Negroes in Guate-
mala Reported to Have Met
in Deadly Fight.

New Orleans, La, May 81. - The
United Fruit company today was using
its wireless in an effort to confirm
strange story of race riot reported 10
have occurred on one of its planta-
lions in Guatemala in which II is re
ported 81 negroes and probably 100 In
dams were killed.
SmoIdering race hatred of these nat
i've Indians for negroes, inhamed by
Clarence Williams, one of the negroes,
winning the Indian girl Mazda from
her father at dice, and his refusal to
sell her back to native, is reported
to be the cause of the trouble.
Christofo Zurello, halfbreed boss
of a neighboring farm, had wanted
Mazda as a wife for his son, and was
incensed when he learned that she
had become the property of the negro.
According to the Guatemalan Indian
custom, he entered into negotiations
with the negro. He offered him so
pesos for the girl. The negro refused.
Soon after Williams left for his
work Saturday, May 9, three men ap-
peared at the shanty. 1t is said one
was Zureilo. Williams returned to the
shanty a few hours later. Tied to a
nearby tree was his Indian girl, mutt
lated with knives. Before she died she
told him who had assailed her. Arm
ing himself, Williams, it is declared.
began a search for Zurello. found him
and shot him to death.
Religious services were held in a
little church as usual the next morn.
ing When the Indians came from the
church the negroes opened fire on
them. Williams and twelve of his fol-
lowers were killed. Many Indians
were slain. Fighting was kept up for
many days.

the Indians. However, be that as 1t

grounds next Sunday and watch us
lick the Idaho Falls team, who have
registered a defeat on Pocatello and
one on the American Falls fast bunch.
Idaho Falls sprung big surprise
last Sunday when they defeated the
American Falls leaders by the score
90. This is the first defeat Of the
leaders this year. and coming from the
