ACA|NATTACK
BLACKS
(By United Pressl

Chicago, June 21.-Race troubles,
in which two whites and one black
were killed here last night, broke out
early today in two places of the city
Three negro ministers returning
from kankakee were attacked this
morning at west side depot by a
mob of $50 white men. Police re-
serves rescued the three, however, be-
fore the mob could murder them.
Another mob attacked Herbert
Mitchell, a negro, and beat him up
before the police stopped them. Mitch
ell was hurried to hospital, and is
expected to recover. The attack took
place at downtown railway station.
Edward Warding, an Abyssinian,
was arrested today for alleged con-
nection with the riots last night.
Police Chief Garrity today order
ed several hundred police reserves on
duty in the black belt, the scene of
the riots in 1919, when more than
30 were killed.
Race troubles started near midnight
when 1t was reported that negro or
ganizations, advocating the movement
of negroes back to Africa, burned two
American flags when their parade had
dispersed. Several negroes ran to a
pool room on 36th street to get aid
to stop the burning. R. R. Rose, a
sailor, Joseph Hoyt, cigar dealer,
and Patrolman Owens, negro, ran
to the place. Owens attempted to
search one of the negroes for weap-
ons, and it was at this point that the
shooting started. Rose was shot
through the heart, Owens through
the back, and Hoyt died instantly
when bullet pierced his heart.
Shortly after midnight, Police Chief
Garritty sent a police reserve to
South State and Eighth streets to
break up crew of sailors from the
Great Lakes station, said to be form
ing to invade the black belt. Great
Lakes records show that $500 sail
ors were in Chicago on leave at the
time.

FIGHTING INTENSE
BY SUNDAY RIOTERS
(By United Press)

London June 21.-From shortly
after 9 until II o'clock Sunday morn
ing pandemonium reigned. A shot
fired from one party into a crowd of
rival partisans developed with om-
inous speed into violent roting.
Party cries were raised and the Un-
ionists, assembled at the head of up
per Foun' ain street, poured volley
after volley of rifle and revolver fire
into Longwater street wits disastrous
results.
Another crowd of Unionists in AL
bert street maintained a cross-fire in
the direction of Bishops Gate, with
the result that the people in the vic
unity fled panic-stricken to shelter.
The Nationalists did not seem to be
so well provided with weapons as
their opponents, but they maintained
vigorous defense.
In an early stage of the battle two
men were shot dead in Longwater
street and several persons, including
baby in arms We're wounded.
In the midst of the melee a man
who knocked down a small boy was
chased by an angry mob of men and
women. He sought shelter in the City
Club. 1nsistent demands for his eiec-
ton being ignored, the mob stoned
the club.
A large crowd assembled in the
non-residential quarters in the center
of the city, where fierce fighting took
place. Two girls were among the
combatants there. Armed police on
duty were compelled to telephone for
military assistance, but before rein
forcements arrived the riot fared to
greater intensity and the fighting by
Unionists became so hot that people
who had been seeking shelter in door
ways were seen crawling along the
ground to places of greater safety.
Gradually the Unionists gained con-
troll of the entire district in the center
of the city, chasing the Nationalist
into their own locality. In their re-
treat the latter fired into the Masonic
hall, the windows of which were
broken. The Unionists posted small
groups at vantage points and kept up
continuous fire. 1t was here Price
was killed as he entered the doorway
of a hotel, where he lived. Price
served with an ambulance corps in the
Ulster Division throughout the war,
having come from America to enlist.
He was waiting an opportunity to re-
turn.
The military arrived in the centeS
of the city at about II o'clock, and an
armored car was moved to Bishops
Gate, whereupon the rioting sub
sided.
