reported burning OF an American flag
BY band OF negroes who we're said

The trouble occurred at Thirty-fifth

scene OF last years race riots. in which
more than 80 whites and blacks were
killed and hundreds injured.
The burning OF the flag was reported
to have taken place when the parade
Of blacks dIsbanded preparatory to en-
tering a hall. where q meeting had
been called by an Organization which
was reported to advocate the move
ment OF negroes back TO Africa.
A bonfire was started in the middle
Of the street. Then some one tossed
an American flag in the fire. A fhrons
Of negroes and whites gathered. A
party Of jackies pushed its way to the
fire, indignant at the burning OF the
flag. They tried to recover the flag.
James B. Owens. a negro policeman.
ran in brandishing his revolver. There
was a volley Of shots. A Jackie fell
dead, and policeman Owens was
stretched on the street with bullet
through his abdomen. The crowds ran
for shelter.
Lying mot far from the blue Jacket
was Joseph Hoyt, 50. salesman. who
was killed by the volley that killed the
sailor.
The police investigators asserted
that ~the back to Africa paraders
were AbyssInians and carried a flag Of
green and yellow.
