JUMP IN TOTAL 0F PROSPECTIVE VOTERS Re-Check Shows 3,447 h. stead of Original Esti-
 mate of 2,500

The original estimate of 2,500 ap- plications to be made voters is ex- ceeded by nearly 1000. a re-check at the office of Registrars Thomas J. Smith and William J. Ziegler in- dicated this morning.
 It was also found that, instead of the third ward leading in the num- Der of applicants for the electors oath, the sixth ward leads by more than 100. The sixth ward applica- tions number TIT and those of the third, 623. The fourth ward has the lowest number with 485 appli- cations, eight less than the number sent in from the fifth ward. In the first ward there are 535 applications and in the second 537 have applied. The total is 3,447.
 The returns from the third and sixth wards are always viewed with great interest by reason of the fact that the former is regarded as the stronghold of the G. o. P. while the Jeffersonians look to the latter for their greatest support.
 The board of seIectnen will be in session next Saturday and one week from Saturday to administer the electors oath to those whH aual- fly. Cards are being sent 6ut to- day from the registrars office to those who are to appear before the seleCtmen.

CHICAGO NEGRO BEATEN TO DEATH
 WITH BASEBALL BAT IN HANDS OF
 ONE OF ANGRY MOB OF WHITE MEN
Indications Are That Wrong Man Was Lynched As Victims of Attack Are Unable to Identify Body As That of Assailant

Chicago, Oct. Civilian Bell, S2. negro. was beaten to death by crowd of men and boys on the west side here last night after he had been charged with assault on young girl.
 The screams of the girl as she was seized by the negro attracted the attention of number of men near the scene. The negro fled but was pursued and overtaken by the crowd. which beat him to death with a baseball bat.
 One of the first men to join the crowd was armed with the bat. More than a hundred men and boys sur- rounded the negro, who made fran tic efforts to break through the crowd, which kicked and struck him down. He was dying when rescued by squad of policemen. who rush. ed him to a hospital.
 After the police had taken Bell to the hospital, other squads seized score of men and boys who were held for questioning.
 The frenzy of the crowd was in- creased during the attack on the negro by the cries of his intended victim, white foreign girl living in the neighborhood, who said her ss- sailant threatened her with death if she screamed.
 Squads of policemen sent into the district to prevent the assembling of crowds, reported the situation was quiet and there was no expectation
New Britain herald., 1924-10-09

Of any rioting similar to that Of July, 1919, when crowds of whites and negroes clashed in the negro sections of the southside and several persons were killed.
 The crowd was composed princi- pally of foreigners living in the neighborhood, where feeling has been tense because of the influx of negroes into the district. It dispers- ed after the police arrived and authorities expected no recurrence of trouble.
 Possibility that the wrong man was lynched last night was seen to- day when the two young women were unable to identify the body as that of their assailant.
 Otto Epstein, manager of a sac- ramental wine shop in the Ghetto, where the attack. and lynching oc- cured, was accused by two negroes as the man who killed Bell with a baseball bat. Epstein denied the charge.
 The Ghetto swarmed into action when Miss Betty Greenblatt and Miss Bertha Deutsch screamed. Bell was surrounded by a crowd that quickly beat, kicked and tram- pied him. He died on the way to a hospital.
 Thomas Clark and Albert Harper, negroes. said they had been talking with Bell and had only started to leave him when they heard the girls screams and saw the mob forming. They fled.
