Five Killed and Many Wounded
in Race Ri0ting
GIRLS STAY DETECTIVES
City Terrorized And Baker And March
Make Tour To Lay Plans For
Suppression OF
Uprising.

Washington.-Five are known to
have died and score of persons were
wounded as result Of the almost in.
Vulnerable race clashes here.
Martial law for the whole District
OF Columbia may be declared, as the
presence Of two troops Of cayalrymen
and several hundred Marines and
provost guards proved unequal to the
task of preventing the outbreaks,
which spread to the downtown sec
tions of the city.
While the rioting was at its height
parties of negroes in automobiles rode
up and down the street firing indis-
criminately into the crowds. Secre-
tary OF War Baker and General March,
Chief Of Staff of the Army, made q
tour OF the city and it is generally be-
lieved martial law will be declared.
Two of the dead were members of
the city detective force and the other
three were negroes. Harry Wilson,
one Of the detectives, was shot by a
17-year-old negress, who had opened
fire from the second floor of resi-
dence near Second and G streets
southeast. Another negress began
Shooting from house across the al
ley when the police and guards rushed

Thompson, the other detective, was
wounded during the clash and died
soon afterward. Only one arrest was
made as a result of the attack, the
negress who fred the first shot. She
was wounded in the hips.
Fires into Street Car.
One Of the negro men killed was
shot down while in the act of firing
into a street car crowded with men,
women and children, at Fourth and N
streets Northwest. An unidentified
white man was the first to return the
negro's fire and while the negro still
was pumping bullets at the car SOL
der dubbed him over the head with
a rife butt.
Another victim was Marine who
was shot in the heart Of the city, at
Pennsylvania avenue and Fifteenth
street, within a stones throw of the
White House.
Immediately before this negro rid
ing by on a motorcycle was pulled
from his machine by rioters. He
opened fire at once and scattered the
crowd. The shots were returned from
a group of sailors and soldiers, but
whether the Marine was shot by the
fleeing negro or by one of his COM
panions has not been ascertained. The
negro was pursued by police and pro-
vost guards and arrested.
ciubbed To Death.
A negro on street car was dubbed
to death by Marine during one of
the innumerable clashes on the street
cars.
Provost guards stationed on Della
ware avenue returned the fire of an
automobile load of negroes, who
opened upon the guards. The return
fire passed through the automobile
without hitting any of its occupants,
but one shot hit negro bystander.
The fighting at midnight had re-
solved largely to fighting between
small groups. and in one Of these en-
counters marine was reported to
have been killed. Although service
men had taken part in the early
clashes, the most serious were those
in which the mobs were made up of
civilians.
