TROLLEY FALLS INTO NIAGARA.
Nine iVvsons ])eudt Oilier? Injured as
Result of Acident.
Niagara Falls, N. Y., June 1.-A
belt line ?ar on the Great {jorge route
left the rails, plunged down a 20-foot
enmankment and turned over in 10
feet of water on the edge of the
Whirlpool Rapids at 3.30 o'clock this
afternoon.
Nine persons are known to be
dead, two persons known to have
been on the car have not been seen
since the accident and probably are
dead, an indefinite number, estimated
at from two to ten, are reported miss
ing and more than a score are In hos
pitals suffering from injuries received
in the accident.
A washout, due to recent heavy
rains, was the cause of the disaster,
which occurred just below the Canti
lever bridge and GO feet below the
point where the smooth water of the
upper reaches of the Niagara river
break into the turbulent waters of
the Whirlpool Rapids.
Tho car had all but completed the
circuit of tho gorge, having crossed
from the Canadian side of the river
from the trolley bridge at Lewiston.
There were more than 50: passengers
on board according to estimates.
The car was one of the open type,
the seats extending from sido to side,
with steps on both sides the full
length of the car. All the seats were
occupied and some of the passengers
wore standing between them and
there were others on the rear plat
form.
The car was running at a speed of
about 20 miles an hour when lt
struck the weak spot in the roadbed.
Less than half a minute elapsed from
the time the motorman felt the first
jarring sway until the car was bot
tom side up on the edge of the rush
ing rapldB.
As lt slipped down the 2 0-foot In
cline from the tracks to the edge of
the river screaming men and wo
men fought to escape and some of
them were able to get free, but wore
unable to obtain a footing on the
steep bank. There was a mad scram
ble in the shallow water between the
wrecked car and tho river bank.
From tho river side tho bodies of at
least two of the passengers were
seen to be caught in the swifter wa
ter and were carried down to the
Whirlpool.
Members of a national guard regi
ment who were on guard at the Can
tilever bridge saw the accident and
were the first to the rescue. The sol
diers slid down the bank into the
river and worked in water up to their
waists, getting injured passengers
free from the wreckage and passing
them up the bank, where nu emer
gency car had boen placed to carry
them to a hospital.
The supports of tho roof on the for
ward part of the car had been crush
ed by the Impact on tho rocks In the
river bottom, throwing the soats to
gether. This pinioned many of tho
passengers below tho surface of tho
water and it was in this section of
tho car that most of the fatalities oc
curred.

derailed near Toccoa, Ga., ti O' miles
north of here, this afternoon. No

HACK RIOTS BRUAH AFRESH
At East St. Louis, 111.-Many Negroes
Killed, Houses Humed.
East St. Louis, 111., July 2.-At
least IB negroes were shot and killed
by mobs here to-night as they fled
from their burning homes, which had
been set on fire by white mobs. The
exact number who perished in the
bourning houses, If any, is unknown.
Military rule was proclaimed at 8
o'clock to-night, and at the same time
300 white men were arrested and
locked up at police headquarters.
Negro quarters in various parts of
the city are on lire and the flames
reach the very edge of the business
district.
Estimates of the number of ne
groes who perished in the fire ran as
high as 100, but there was nothing
authentic on which to base these esti
mates, except that hundreds of
whites stood around the edges of the
burning districts and fired at the ne
groes as they fled from their homes.
Late this afternoon a mob of
whites raided a pawnshop and car
ried away fire arms. At 5 oVlock 23
negroes and one white man were in
hospitals.
Two negroes were taken from a
street car here this afternoon, snot
and killed and a white man, stnndlrig
in front of his store, was killed by a
stray bullet.
The turbulence of the mobs in
creased during the afternoon. At 2
o'clock a negro was shot in the head.
The crowd cheered and clapped their
hands as he was placed In an ambu
lance. National guardsmen stood
by, apparently doing nothing.
The work of dragging negroes off
the street cars began at 1.30 o'clock
when a crowd surrounded an Ed
wardsville car which goes through
the heart of East St. Louis and pull
ed the trolley from the wire. Imme
diately white men boarded the car
and took off the negro passengers.
One negro was kicked and beaten by
the crowd in the street and then he
was shot. He died in an ambulance
later.
White Women Attack Negroes.
While this riot was going on a
Belleville car appeared. White men
and white women boarded it. White
women and white girls seized negro
women and when they were landed
in tho street the mob struck and
kicked them. The negro women fled
screaming. The men who had been
dragged off the cars were surrounded
and attacked by groups of whites.
One negro was crushed in the head
with a heavy stick. He died In an
ambulance.
More cars were attacked. Finally
national guardsmen arrived and be
gan clearing the streets.
Rifles were taken from 16 guards- ;
men by members of the mob, who
would approach a soldier, and say
ing, "Here, boy, let me look, at that
gun; you might hurt some one," and
would take the weapon away from
him.
The trouble broke out anew when
a negro appeared at a street ear
transfer point where a crowd of white
men had assembled.
A white man struck the negro in
the face and others knocked him
down and kicked him. Five shots
were fired at the negro as he lay
prostrate, wounding him In tho arm
and leg. The crowd drew back,
thinking tho negro had been killed,
but he Jumped up and ran away.
Later a white man fired at a negro
and the bullet hit another white
man. The armed man was arrested,
but at ,the demand of a crowd of
white men the police released him.
How Trouble Began.
The trouble began early this morn
ing when Detective Sergeant Samuel
Coppedge was killed, three other of
ficers were wounded, one of them so
seriously he may die, and two citi
zens were shot here early to-day by a
negro mob In a recurrence of race
rioting. After the killing of the offi
cer the negroes dispersed. The po
lice were armed with riot guns and
patrolled the street all night and six
companies of Illinois national guard
were ordered to East St. Louis by
Governor Lowden.
The trouble began when a mob of
negroes, estimated at 200, each arm
ed with some sort of weapon, assem
bled at a church In response to the
ringing of a bell, and bogan march
ing down the street. When word was
received at police headquarters that
a mob had formed four patrolmen
were sent to the scene In an automo
bile. As the car turned a comer, the
headlights showed the mob massed in
tho street, marching townrd the ma
chine, many carrying clubs in addi
tion to rifles or revolvers.
Sergeant Coppedge asked the ne
groes where they were going and was |
met with a curt reply and an order
to "drive on." He told them that he
and his party were officers and had
come to sec that order was maintain
ed.
Negro?? Fired Volley.
"Go on about your business," was
the reply, accompanied by a volley of
shots. Coppedge was killed Instant

ed. When word of the killing of
Coppedge reached police headquar
ters Chief Hickey ordered every
available patrolman on duty and ask
ed for the services of 200 soldiers of
the Sixth Illinois Infantry stationed
here. A cordon was thrown around
the negro bolt and soldiers and pa
trolmen went through every house
searching men and women for wea
pons. All firearms found were con

1*0410? Demonstration Broken Up
Socialist litt?rature Destroyed.
Boston, July 1,-Riotous scenes at
tended a socialist parado to-day
which was announced as a peace
demonstration. The ranks of the
mnrchurB were broken up by self-or
ganized squads of uniformed sol
diers and sailors, red Hags and ban
ners bearing socialistic mottoes were
trampled on, and literature and fur
nishings in the socialist headquarters
In Park Square wore thrown into tho
street and burned.
Police reserves stopped tho rioting
after lt had been in progress an hour
and a half. Many arrests were made.
The police took Into custody some
of the participants In hundreds of
fist fights that were waged on the
common and in the line of parade on
Tremont street, while agents of the
Federal Department o? Justice arrest
ed a number of persons who were al
leged to have made unpatriotic re
marks in the heat of conflict. None
of tho soldiers and sailors who fig
ured In the disturbance was arrested.
Women With Babies in Une.
Tho procession, which consisted of
hundreds of mon and women, many
of whom carried babies, formed in
Park Square, and, passing through
Eliot street, marched along Tremont
street, one division going to the base
ball ground on the common where a
meeting had boen arranged, and ano
ther proceeding to Scollay Square.
Most of tho marchers carried small 1
red flags with white centers, em
blematic of the peace demonstration,
and there were large "banners bearing
inscriptions such as "Russia has a
six-hour day-Why not America?"
and "Liberty Loan a First Mortgage
on Labor." A large American flag
was at the head of the procession.
Half a hundred men in tho uni
form of naval reservists, national
guardsmen, marines and Canadian
"kilties," who had watched the for
mation of tho parade, marched across
the common in a double column and
intercepted the procession at the cor
ner of West and Tremont streets and
again at the corner of Winter and
Tremont streets. In both Instances
the contact resulted in a street fight.
Blows were exchanged and flags were !
snatched from the hands of the !
marchers While women in the line
screamed in fright.
At Scollay Square there was a sim
ilar scene. The American flag at the
head of tho line was seized by the
attacking party and the band, which
had been playing "The Marseillaise"
with some interruptions, was forced
to play "The Star-spangled Banner,"
while cheers were given for the flag.
The police had just succeeded in
quieting this disturbance when the re
serves were called out to quell an in
cipient riot at the meeting place on
the common. Tho first of tho "peace"
speakers bad barely begun when the
reserves arrived. They formed a cir- I
cle in the crowd, with the police
wagon as a center in front of the
speaker's stand, but In spite of their
presence lhere were scores of indi
vidual fights in the big gathering. To
restore quiet, Superintendent Crow
ley, as acting police commissioner,
revoked the permit for the speaking
and the meeting was called off.
Destroyed by Bonfire.
Meanwhile the Socialist hoadquar-,
ters in Park Square had been ran
sacked and its contents debstroyed by
a bonfire. The American flag taken
from the paraders was placed over a |
statue of "Lincoln the 'Emancipator"
near the scene of the bonfire.
Tho peace conference was organ
ized at a conference of 'Socialist
branches, labor unions and work
men's benefit societies of the metro
politan district, acting under the
name of the workmen's council, in
imitation of the council of workmen
and soldiers of "Russia. It was an
nounced that the organization repre
sented 10,000 working men.

flscatod and about r>0 blacks were
locked up.
Race rioting in East St. Louis first
broke out May 28 last, when tho rob
bery of two white men by negroes
precipitated violence which resulted
in injury of about two'score negroes
and a dozen white men lu four days.
Homes of negroes were bumed and a
large number of them left the city.
Saloons and places of amusement
wero ordered closed and other steps
wore taken to keop tho crowds off
tho streets. Tho trouble grew out of
tho Importation of negro laborers
from the South.
Tho trouble this morning, in tho
opinion of tho police, was caused by
a desire on tho part of tho negroes to
get revenge.
Number Killed Increases.
East St. Louis, July 3.-Esti
mates of tho number of dead varied
widely from a score to two hundred
and fifty. At 9.30 o'clock this morn
ing 27 bodies had been recovered,
Including 3 whites and a 2-year-old
negro giri. Seventy-four wounded
negroes were found. Estimates of

bris where fires consumed scores of
negro shacks and houses last night
run into the hundreds.
