RESCUED BY POLICEMAN.

The Negroes were overtaken and
rescued from the mob by policemen
In the meantime squads Of mounted
police arrived in the district in anti
cipation Of trouble and what was eS
pccted to be the most serious out
break Of tho night was curbed.
Police wires were busy all night
with pleadings from frightened wo
men for protection. Many Of them
feared to leave the zone Of action and
they were terrified by the dramatic
battles and feared their homes would
be wrecked before morning. :.
Street lights along some streets
were smashed and the streets darken
ed. Then the bright flashes from pis
tolls would signify a new battle and
soon the immediate vicinity would
be surging mass Of whites and
blacks. When they came together
in large crowds fists} Knives and
clubs were used.
While the "black bolt, was TEEN
ing with strife Negro workers and
churchmen sent out appeals that the
Ec:e-roes go to their homes and keep
peace. They charged in most out
breaks the Negroes had -been heckled
by whites and pointed to the first
fights yesterday when colored bath
ers along the South lakeeshore were
stoned by whites and one Negro boy
drowned.

For more than five hours the five
mile area on the South Side was
battle ground Of scattered fights be
tween whites and Blacks and between
oliccmen and Negroes, who fired from
housetops from dark alleys and other
points Of vantage.
The call for troops to quell the out
breaks resulted in four regiments Of
National Guardsmen being modified
but at a late hour tonight they had
not been dispatched to the disturbed
district, and Chief Of Police Clarity
expressed the belief that the worst
of the disorder had passed.
Five of the dead are Negroes and
two are whites.
The wounded in most cases were
hurried to hospitals after which they
were removed to their homes when
conditions permitted.

A BAD BILL

Bill 472-A, introduced by Assembly
man j. c. Chapple at the instigatiOn
of the Brotherhood of Railway Engi-
neers, if enacted into law, would COM
pei every person operating an autOmO-
bile, before crossing at grade the main
track of any steam or interurban track
outside of cities and not protected by
Il flagman. to cause his auto to come to
a complete stop not less than ten nor
more than fifty feet from the nearest
rail, with a penalty of from $500 to
$4,000 for each violation. While the
idea of seeking to avoid dangerous
embarrassing accidents has merit.
the way the bill is drafted all railways
would fOrevermOre be practically ex-
empt from liability for embarrassing
accidents, unless those in the automo-
bile could prove they had come to a
full and complete stop before attempt
ing to cross the tracks. Need more be
said?
While safety first is a good slogan
to bear always in mind. it would be an
outrage to compel every motorist to
stop every time he came to railroad
track because few fo0lhardy or care
less ones are killed every year.
