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

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.
