Eight Bluejackets Sentenced to
Six Nj onths in Jail After

BOSTON, Nov. 24-Eight sailors
were sentenced to-day to six months
in jail for rioting as Il result OF an
early morning disturbance in Scol ay
Square, in which the police and state
guardsmen battled with a crowd of 100
bluejackcts. The trouble started last
night, when the police frustrated an
attempt to rescue sailor who had
been arrested for drunkenness.
Several hours later friends of the
arrested man with reinfcrcements
from battleships at the navy YARD
marched into the square, where twenty
Ave policemen and 100 guardsmen met
and routed them with clubs and took
eight prisoners.
The cases were all appealed and the
men were ordered he'd in bonds of
$1,000 each. but no bondsmen appeared.
An officer from the battle ship Florida,
who represented that ship in court,
remarked during the proceedings that
if the men were found guilty the navy
would not intercede for them.

announced that a second autopsy had
been performed on the body Of Mrs.
Bessie Cook Troy.
He said the body was exhumed at
