Take Bodies Of Dead
Blacks

Chicago. July 29.-Race rioting
has spread outside the south side
colored district today. Serious fight
ing has taken place with some shoot
ing in the Loop. and the exclusive
north side residential district has
felt the touch of disorder
Killings continued after daybreak
today bringing the number of dead
to "a by mid forenoon, with hun
dreds reported injured. Police are
investigating three other reported
killings.
The street car strike added to the
spread of the rioting when thou
sands walked to work. Four thou
sand soldiers with full equipment
have been rushed into the city in an
effort to stop the trouble.
Both whites and blacks, enraged
by the cruelties of Sunday night,
have deliberately, armed themselves
and went out last night to stalk their
prey. The Caucasians seem to be
the prime aggressors although both
races took the initiative.
A mob threatened to attack an un-
dertaking establishment which had
accepted negro corps. Thereafter.
dead negroes were not accepted at
white mortuaries.
To add to the situation $1,000
street car employees are striking for
higher pay.
