LEGION MEN
HOLD DOWN RACE. CLASH

Miami, July 1.-Quiet reigns in
the negro section today following
riot last night after dynamite
bombs were thrown into negro
dwelling close to. the color line.
Three hundred members of the A
merican Legion, called out by the
mayor, patrolled the streets last
night, and there were no casualties.
The authorities anticipate no more
trouble, and the negroes are quiet,
trusting in the promise of the po-
lice for protection and the prosecu-
Ition of those alleged to have started
the trouble.
After the dynamiting of the
negro dwelling hundreds of armed
negroes rushed into the streets and
there was promiscuous firing. Act
/ 1g Chief of Police Startling .one of
the first to reach the trouble zone,
and prominent negro business men
succeeded in inducing the disturb
ers to return to their homes, re-
tention of their arms being allowed.
During the night, none, white or
black, unless uniformed members of
the American Legion or the police
force, were allowed on the streets
of the negro section.

the average production for the past
five years or since the war started
cause of a reduction in acreage so
much but principally on account of
weevils having spread over the belt
meanwhile and owing to the ebsence
of German potash, much of which
was used in making the big crops
prior to the war. Up to 1914 the wee
wills had worked eastward only as far
IS Western half of Alabama, now
they extend to the Atlantic Coast and
worked somewhat further northward
until today they cover almost the en-
tire belt.
If the bureau is a shade under 70
it will be the lowest July crop condi-
ton on record and while there is the
possibility Of a slight change in the
acreage compared with last year a
little more or less chances are likely
to be against the making of a fair
yield, much less a large crop unless
weather during remainder of season
exceptionally good and weevils are
not destructive. 80. '....
The crop is still very late and wee
wills have appeared early and are nu-
merous in many localities of the belt.
In this there is the greatest danger
for the crop as in event of showery
weather they would likely multiply
and become destructive.

NOT THE TOUGHEST KID.
Therefore "HclIs Kitchen" Boy Gets
Damages of $500.

. "a = : .
New York. June 25.-The supreme
court decided yesterday that William
McCue was not "the toughest kid in
Hell's Kitchen and awarded him
$4,000 damages against the Russell
Sage Foundation and publishers Of a
book entitled "Boyhood and Lawless-
ness" in which his picture appeared
over this caption.
In asking 100000 damages, the
boys complaint set forth that in 1914
a photographer appeared In the Hell's
Kitchen district where he lived and
took his picture on the ground that
he wanted ''boy scout pictures" Nc
Cue, who Is now Of age, said he was
an altar boy in st. Ambrose's church
at the time and has never been ar
rested or charged with delinquency
in any form.
In denying motion to set aside
the verdict, Justice Ford said:
There is not scintilla OF evi-
denoe that he was tough at all. It is
a wicked libel.
THAT is the great trouble with
these movements. They think that
whore there is poverty there must be
criminality. AS a matter OF fact in
those humble little homes In the sec
ton pictured in this book wilt be
found more Christian piety. more de-
votion to real duty, more Of the
sterling qualities Of humanity than
will be found In the mansions along
Fifth avenue"

Population Of Continental United
States Estimated at 10000, 900
Cessation Of immigration During
War and Deaths Resulting From
HostiIlties Responsible For Falling
Off in Growth.

Washington, June 25.-The popu.
lation Of continental United States Is
estimated at 1o5,0o0,0oO by J. A.
Hill, chief statistician OF the census
bureau. His calculation is based on
the combined populations Of 1.408
cities and towns for which statistics
have been announced. The, increase
over 1910 is placed at about 13,00O,-
900, showing the growth Of the coun-
try has not kept pace with previous
decades. Almost complete cessation
Of immigration during the war Is the
chief reason assigned for the falling
off in growth. Other suggestions
were the two influenza epidemics.
return of aliens to their lands, and
deaths Of soldiers abroad and at
home during the war.
The aggregate population OF the
cities and towns on which the esti-
mate is made is 41.029,354. This is
an average gain of 2s per cent COM
pared with 35 per cent in the pre-
viou3 decade.
