lest the guardsmen "hnrt someone in the
crowd"
During the rioting of the afternoon no
member of the mob was seriously hurt
by a guardsman, the outbreaks continuing
in the heart of the city despite warnings
of the police and the national guard Of
ficers.
The immediate cause Of the roting to.
day was the outbreak Of trouble last
night, but for several days there had
been evidences of bad blood. and on sun
day night several minor clashes between
whites and blacks occurred.
The clashes Saturday night apparently
warned the Negro quarter Of the city or
at least gave agitators chance to organ
ize the blacks for fighting. When word
was telephoned to police headquarters
that the ringing of church bell had
called the armed Negroes together, an
automobile loaded with police left the
scene to dispense the crowd. The officers
were greeted by volley. Detective Ser
geant Coppedge was killed and three po-
licemen wounded. One detective, Frank
Woodley, now is in a hospital in crit
zeal condition He was shot in the stom-
ach.
The police chauffeur also was wound

wounded in an earlier attack Police
reinforcements early this morning dis
persed the mob Of Negroes and shortly
after 9 A. NJ Mayor hoffman asked
Gov. Lowden to send national guards
men here to preserve order. Two com
panies of the guard arrived about $50
A. NJ. and were assigned to duty in the
Negro quarter. Up to that hour, the
streets were quiet and it seemed that
the day would pass without a renewal
of the rioting.
AS the morning wore on crowds
began to congregate in the streets and
encouraged by the absence Of troops
from the down town section, agitators
began their work of inhaming the mob.
The first trouble occurred when a
Negro appeared at Broadway and Col
linsville avenue, one of the busiest
corners of the city, and an important
street car transfer point. A white man
struck the Negro in the face and 9th =
ers in the crowd knocked him down
and kicked him. AS he lay in the
street, a white man coolly approached
and fired at him five times. TWO of
the shots took effect. one in the arm
and one in the leg. AS the crowd.
thinking the Negro was dead. fell back,
he jumped up and ran. The Negro said
he had had no part in previous race
troubles.
A little later white man standing
III front of the limo hotel fired at a
Negro, but missed him and wounded a
white man. Louis Hayge. aged IS. in
the groin. The police arrested the man
who fired the shot, but the threatening
mob forced the officers to release him.
Later a man who the police say was
