Save Police
Shot Wife in Street
West Indian Beaten and
Trampled Unconscious Be-
fore Sailors Arrive

With bayonets fixed, twenty-five Ma
val Militiamen, commanded by Ensign
Gerald Nolan, forced their way. yes
terday afternoon through a mob wEich
threatened to lynch negro at Fort
Greene Place and Fulton Street.
| Brooklyn, ringed the unconscious man
with fence of steel, and held the mob
off until police aid arrived.
Those who were trying to harm the
negro. who says he is Conrad Hart a
West Indian, had seen him shoot down
| his wife, Mary, a few minutes before,
and then, standing above her body, FIRE
more shots into 1T.
Hart and the woman had stood on
the corner arguing for ONE time. Flnai-
ly he pulled revolver. Mary start,
ed to run, but the first shot tumh'ed
her over. Before any one could inter.
vene her husband ran to her side end
emptied his pistol into her body.
Hundreds Saw Shooting
The streets were crowded, and hun
dreds saw the killing. In moment the
! negro was the centre of mob which
grew rapidly in size and violence. Hart
was swept from his feet, trampled ana
kicked Once he was picked up Dooiy
and thrown several yards.
Patrolmen Fried and LEM tried to
rescue him, but although they forced
their way to the centre Of the mob,
they were without clubs and found
themselves fighting for their lives.
Then a Fulton Street trolley came
along, bearing the Naval Militia de-
, tachment to a recruiting rally at the
23d Regiment armory. Ensign Nolan
saw the plight of the police and acted
| at once.
The bluejackets dashed from the car,
fixed bayonets and started for the MOB
in a wedge formation. At the glitter OF
steel the rioters fell back, and the
sailors ploughed through until they
reached the unconscious Hart and his
exhausted protectors.
Checked by Ring of Steel
The mob still ragged and threatened,
but no one cared to venture within
reach of the bayonets protecting the
negro. The militismen held their hol.
low square until the patrol wagon and
| reserves arrived. The woman's body
was taken to the Morgue.
Hart was cut and bruised and his
clothing was in shreds, but he recov-
cred consciousness at the police station
and told his story.
He was, he said, steward on the
Ward liner Iroquois. His wife had been
employed as housemaid at lib Fort
Greene Avenue. A short time ago, he
declared, she wrote to him, saying
that she was tired of him.
According to Hart, his wife had be-
come fascinated by another man. When
he met her on the street yesterday he
said he urged her to return to him, and
when she refused he shot her.

0. T. Haakinson, connected with
the automobile license department Of
the state, was in the city yesterday
TO see that all owners were complying
with the law in the matter of tags.
The department now demands that
both licenses shall be carried on the
car, n in front and one at the rear.
Failure to comply with this part of
the law will likely result in trouble
for the offender.
The past week has somewhat bright
ened the crop outlook in Bottineau
county and throughout the state gen.
orally. Local showers have hit al
most every section of Bottineau coun-
ty with the exception of the immedi-
ate territory around Bottineau. A
light drizzle here yesterday relieved
the situation somewhat and, with

A representative from the traffic
department of the Great Northern
Railway was in the city Tuesday and
favored the Courant with a call. He
frankly explained that the object Of
the visit was to convince us of the
justice of the proposed Is per cent in
crease in freight rates. While failing
to present any very logical reason for
the intended raise, he assured us that
the Great Northern really needed the
money. We therefore gave him our
permission to go ahead and soak the

reports its work as thorough and

quired to accept one of two conclu,

that population Of four thousand
is more nearly correct Or that she
has tremendously large proportion
