CHICAGO RACE RIOT BREAKS OUT AFRESH j i ? Seven Persons Killed More Than Forty Wounded.?Troops Are ^ Called Out Chicago, July 28.?Seven persons are known to have been killed and j more than two score wounded, many of them seriously, in a renewal of race riots in the Chicago "black belt" tonight. For more than five hours the fivemile area on the south side was a battle ground of scattered fights between whites and blacks arid between policemen and negroes, who fird from house tops, from dark alleys and other points of advantage. Troops Mobilizing. p The call for troops to quell the outTvroflks resulted in four resriments of National Guardsmen being mobilized, but at. a late hour to-night they had not been sent to the disturbed district and Chief of Police Garrity expressed the belief that the worst of the disorder had passed. Five of the dead are negroes and two are whites. , , The wdunded in most cases were v hurried to hospitals, after which they ! were removed to their homes when conditions permitted. There was no concerted battle. I ' Chief of Police Garrity, at a late hour, said that it was impossible to make an exact estimate of the casualties because of the contradictory re-, ports. Stones and Knives. The riots which started yesterday' on the south side beaches were renewed when negito laborers began t leaving the big industrial plants and by dusk more than a score of outbreaks had occurred. Whites began dragging negroes from street cars; j the negroes retaliated with stones j y and knives. Street cars in the heart of the "black belt" were tied up and the windows smashed. A 'flying squadron" of blacks mounted a touring car and, riding at full speed through the section, sent a volley of shots at a group of whites. OnA white woman was iniured, but not fatally. The negroes were over^taken and placed under arrest. Shortly afterwards a mob of several hundred blacks formed at Thirtyfifth street and began stoning a po. liceman. Gun fire was openede and four of the negroes fell, all mortally wounded. A white man in the same neighborhood was dragged from a truck or?i1 tn Hp?tH MUU wv A negro chauffeur was killed by 1 whites a few minutes later in the | same block. Several arrests were made but; where the rioters were found to be unarmed they were released. Stores Looted. Neogres began looting stores of whites in one district shortly after: the firing of revolvers by a squad of policemen in an effort to break up the fight. | The police soon emptied their guns, but the looting continued until a snnaH of Dolice. armed with I rifles arrived. They fired low felling half a dozen blacks. A white woman was pulled from a " r THE NORTHERN STATES ? Neither to I but Standi i # h '< W IV > . ?

Charged With Razors. Groups of blacks formed in football fashion and charged against the whites with razors and clubs. On one corner the scene was. like a miniature battle grot | d. Unconscious negroes and wmtes dotted tne street. While the main battles were in progress women, blacks and whites, battled away in front yards with brooms and missiles. In one of these fights a white woman was knocked unconscious and taken to a hospital. Negroes Aid Police.

Procession of Injured. A number of wounded negroes crept into alleys and other darl places. When they were found thej were hurried to a negro hospital which for several hours received a virtual Drocession of injured. The more seriously wounded neI groes received at the hospital hac | participated in a battle with whites I on Thirty-fifth and State streets. Sev; eral thousand of the blacks crowded at this point. It was an orderly gathering for a time, but suddenly negroes raced up the street and stopped suddenly in the home of a white man. In a twinkling shots be *1 -ii j; n^i gan TO Iiy m an directions, rernapa more than a score of negroes fell. Some were carried off by companions. For more than two blocks along the street negro snipers fired from house tops and windows. Orders to Troops.
