NEGRO OUTRAGE
IN WASHINGTON

Washington, July 22.-The proc

sary to end the race rioting here
which resulted last night in the kill
ing of five persons and injuries to
fifty.
Two hundred rioters are under ar
rest. The dead are detectives Harry

Despite the aid Of military provost
guards the police were unable to cope
with the rioters. II believed several
negroes are fatally hurt.
Police reserves and provost guards
rushed through the streets all night
answering riot calls. Forty-five calls
we're turned in at one precinct alone
between I and ! o'clock.
The negroes were prepared, having
purchased hundreds Of reyolyers yes
terday. Early in the evening they
ofrmed crowds in the negro seton
and attackd white men whenever
found. Late in the night the negroes
dispersed as mobs but in groups took
possession OF high powered automo-
biles and raced through the streets.
firing at all whites in range.
II is believed numerous casualties
resulting from fhis indiscrimpa {
firing have not been reported to the
police.
The police reported today that an
other white woman was attackd in
Capitol Heights last night by ne
gro. The woman was practically dis
robed in the struggle with her assail
ant. who escaped after she screamed
and had bitten him severely.
The negro had loitered about the
woman's house all Yesterday but fin
ally was scared away. Then hiding
behind a hedge he seized the woman
as she passed last night. This was th'
seventh negro attack on whit women
here within two weeks.
