ENCOUNTER MARKED 3RD
CLASH WITHIN "a HOURS
Mill City Police Take Steps To
End Simmering Race Trou-
bles in 6 Ave. N District.

Refusing to be bullied, a Negro
last Tuesday night in a struggle at
Sixth and Aldrich Aves. n. Minnea-
polls, with patrolman George H. Nc
Nance of the North Side station,
wrested the policeman's revolver af-
ter the officer had fired four shots at
him, backed slowly away and escap-
ed. Nearly 500 persons witnessed
the clash.
Upon investigation, ii appears that
the man who escaped, had been sit
ting on a railing at Sixth and Aldrich
Ave. n. with a friend when Patrol
man McNamee came up and ordered
the men to move on in a rough tone
of voice. When the men refused to
jump at the officers command, he
proceeded to hustle up matters by
using his club. Words followed. Nc
Nance struck one of the men. accord
ing to a witness, then a struggle en-
sued.
Takes Cops Revolver
In the struggle that followed, the
man who had been struck, threw the
policeman onto the ground. Nc Ma
NEE reached for his revolver and fir
&c four shots but he failed to hit the
fellow who grabbed for his wrist and
succeeded in. turning the gun from
his body. Finally, the man twisted
the gun from the po]iceman's hand,
and wrenching himself free, backed
into the street covering the patrol
man with his own revolver.
Crowd Gathers
Nc Nance then got up and when
he turned to go up Sixth avenue for
assistance, the man who had beaten
him fed, running up Aldrich avenue
toward Fifth avenue. A gun squad
searched the district few minutes
later but did not find him. He had
not been found up until early today.
During the clash a crowd of nearly
500 gathered on the other three cor
ners and witnessed the affair.
Fear Race Trouble.
The incident marked the third
clash between Negroes and police in
the Sixth avenue district within "a
hours. Early Tuesday morning, two
policemen had trouble when they at
tempted to break up a crowd of Ne
groes at Lyndale Place and Sixth av-
enue. Four men were arrested char
ged with disorderly conduct. Sever
al others were badly beaten. Police
were called to break up another
crowd that formed an hour later.
Although no more serious troubles
have occurred since Tuesday night,
police have ordered all Negro clubs
closed and taken steps to prevent fur
ther trouble.
A committee of citizens has been
formed to investigate conditions and
ascertain the complaint that Negroes
have been speaking to white girls and
otherwise conducting themselves in
a disorderly manner in that district.

Carvey Fails To
Arrive in St. Paul
Hundreds Disappointed When
Famed Negro Moses" Fails to
Arrive as Scheduled.

Honorable Marcus Garvey, provis-
of Africa, president
general of the Universal Negro I'm
provement Association in whose in
terest he is now making a cross coun-
ty speaking tour, and president of
numerous other enterprises, pulled a
"boner" when he failed to make his
appearance at st. James A. M. E,
church last Friday evening where IL
had been advertised for nearly six
weeks in advance that the famed Ne
gro leader would speak.
No word had been received from
Garvey or from U. N. /. A. headquar-
ters in New York up until yesterday
morning stating why he did not come
here, according to officials of the 10.
cal division.
Field Representative Speaks
In Garvey's place, Madam Henriet,
ia Davis international organizer OF
the Universal Negro Improvement
spoke to the full house
that had clamored to hear Garvey
According to instruction, Madam Da-
Wis understood that she was to join
the Garvey party here. Garvey fail
ing to arrive, she spoke both Friday
and Saturday at the church. She
spoke principally of the work the
Garvey movement has undertaken to
do.

Demand Refund.

The first night Garvey was due to
speak, hundreds of Twin City people
went to the church to hear the prom
inent orator but when it was an
nounced that Garvey had failed to
arrive, many demanded their admis-
sion fee to be refunded. This the 10
cal branch willingly did. The follow
ing night, Madam Davis spoke to a
poor house in spite of the number of
people who came to the church cur
ious to know whether Garvey had
come or not.
No Word Received.
Although the local branch Of the
U. N. 1. A. had received instructions
from the parent body in New York
for Garvey to speak in st. Paul June
16 and II, no word has been received
within a day or so from the parent
body.
it is generally conceded that Gar
vny's failure to come here or to send
word that he was not coming will
greatly hamper the activities OF the
local branch.

THE ARMS FARLEY TABLES

The tables used by the representa-
tives of the nations of the world at in
ternational conference on limitation of
armament were installed in the House
appropriations committee room. These
tables were secured for the use of Con-
gress by Chairman Madden of the
House appropriation committee, who
will hereafter sit at the committee
meetings in the chair which was occu-
pied by Secretary Hughes as head of
the American delegation. So that
when the arms parley broke up the
House and Senate split fifty-fifty on
the spoils, the Senate securing the
treaties and the House the tables on
which they were written.
When the arrangements were be-
ing made for the arms parley, Basil
Miles, secretary to the American dele
cation, under whose jurisdiction they
were made, went to Lieut.. Commander
Horace D. Rouzer, in charge of the
Navy building, asking him where ma
hogany tables 108 feet long, allowing
three feet space for each, delegate,
could be secured. A search at the
Capitol showed nothing of that length
available, so Lieut.. Commander Rouz-
er had the table for the principal con-
ferees and four smaller tables made
at the Washington navy yard. They
are built of poplar and rubbed down
and treated as mahogany. They are
of pedestal type, with billiard cloth
covering.
Lieut.. Commander Rouzer found in
the store room of the Capitol fifty
old mahogany chairs of the revolving
type, which had formerly been used on
the floor of the House when each
member had a separate desk. These
were repaired and used at the confer
ence, twenty-one of them around the
main table. Each of these chairs will
be marked with silver plate called
victory medal and inscribed as follows:
Conference on Limitation of Arma-
ments, Memorial Continental Hall,
Washington, D. c., November IL,
1922" with the name of the man who
used the chair and the country he rep
resented. The tables We're not dis
figured in any way, save small tear
in one of them, which was done by
woman with a hatpin at the close of
the conference endeavoring to secure
piece of the billiard cloth covering as
a souvenir. She was caught in the act
and the tear repaired.
Chairman Madden of the House ap-
preparations committee, at the close of
the conference, took up with Secretary
Hughes the ACCESSIBILITY of turning the
tables over to the use of Congress, and
after some correspondence this was
done.-Washington Star of Feb. 16.

felt that if the Company was to attain
the highest pinnacle of success, its pa
irons must be brought as close as pos
sible to the Company, that the commu-
nifty partnership idea be adopted and
that every patron be given the oppor-
tunity to become PARTNER In the bus
mess by owning some portion Of the
Company's securities whether large or
small.
To launch this policy the Company
announces an issue Of 100000 par
value of it's per cent Cumulative
Preferred Stock at $50 per share,
which Is the par value per share.
"The Community Partnership Policy
of the Hagerstown and Frederick Rail-
way Company is simply the Inaugural
ton of system of community owner
ship of the company. A public utility
under regulation is nothing more than
an aggregation of capital providing a
necessary service to the public at
rate which will yield the investor
fair return and no more. Therefore,
when the utility serves a stable and
prosperous community, its securities
afford the very best opportunity for
investments.
"The past several years have dem
onstrated that the Hagerstown and
Frederick Railway Company and it's
subsidiaries have stability, as far as
earning power is concerned, equalled
by very few public utilities in this
country"

NEW H. & F. POLICY
With Statement by President Coblentz

With Statement by President Coblentz
(From Frederick News, 2-21-22)
Announcement is made in the News
by advertisement of the Hagerstown
and Frederick Railway Company of
the adoption and Inauguration of a
Community Partnership Policy, which
is simply the extension to it's custom
ers and the public of a plan whereby
customers and residents of the COM
munities served may become financial
partners in the Company's business.
The policy as adopted is the result
of careful investigation and observa-
ton by the Company's officials of the
idea of popular ownership as applied
to several hundred of the leading
electric companies in this country.
The Hagerstown and Frederick Rail-
way Company's announcement will
likely prove of unusual interest to To-
cal residents. Heretofore this utility
handled it's financing largely through
foreign sources, which meant that To-
cal investors were not given much OPP
portunity to share these investments.
However, the Company's management

Prohibition of Post-Season

TO the mat at catchweights no later
than last fall. is likely 10 be right
out Of baseball wnen the major
leagues convene in December.
At the time OF the Ruth-Landis
controversy many club owners con-
sidered the rule as then framed an
unjust one and subsequently amend
ed it. This TO their ultimate sorrow.
The privilege Is being q bused in
manner hardly favorable 10 the bes,
interests of baseball. Ball players
from nearly every major league out
fit have been identified themselves
with all by manner Of fly by night
enterprises and are making their way
around the coal oil circuit accord
cial circles here. Ii is also limited
that not a few of the stars are giving
the sun rise quite a play.
In consequence some Of the base
ball played 10y them has not savored
Of major league standard, and in
general, a bad impression is gaining
fOOthold in the territory invaded
A determined war on the rule
therefore is promised at the Deem
Der meeting here. Hardly n mag
nate in the east now favors the pro-
position which allows ball players
to roam at large through the coun-

GAMES NOT TABOO
Yale Official Declares big
Three" Willing to Meet
Western Teams.

NEW HAVEN. Conn. Oct. Is
(By A. PD-"The triangular agree

and Princeton does not bar them
from participating in intersectional
football games in the least. provided
that the games take place during>the
regular season. and do not involve
long trips on the part OF the teams
of the three universities. said Prof.
Clarence w Nendeu. chairman Of
the Yale board of athletic control to-
night That has been my interpre-
tation Of the agreement and l feel
confident it is the Interpretation Of
both Harvard and Princeton"
This statement clears up the i'm
preston that sectional football at
the three eastern universities will
cease when the triangular agreement
goes into effect Jan. I.
Prof. Mendell continued:
"The agreement forbids long trips
away from home but there Is moth
ing in Il 10 forbid our playing teams
from other sections OF the country
II they are willing TO come here dur
ing the regular football season.
As far as Yale is concerned 1 am
sure we will be very glad TO play
Iowa again and have no doubt
that an invitation will be extended
TO them 10 play us here next season. ''
Prof. Mendell said he had discuss
ed the point with Dean L. B. R.
Briggs Of Harvard and Dean Hoard
McClenahan Of Princeton and said
they concurred in this Interpretation
Of the agreement.
