Kansas City, March 2.—Clifford Adair, a negro arrested on a charge of disturbing the peace and called up in police court here, pleaded with Judge Kyle to be easy with him, saying he was an old scldier. He had, he said, belonged to Company C of the Twenty- fifth infantry, whose members were discharged because of that company’s part in the Brownsville affair. ‘When Judge Kyle learned from the prisoner that he was at Brownsville at the time of the riot he said: “Tell me who fired those shots at Brownsville and I'll turn you loose.” “I don't know,” declared Adair. “How about that negro that ‘con- fessed’ to the shooting the other day?” “He does not know a thing about it, judge. We did not have any trouble down there. That confession was a fake. Somebody was just a jobbing us down there.” Judge Kyle repeated his promise to release the man if he would tell who fired the shots at Brownsville, but the negro remained silent. He finally was discharged. DEFAULTS WITH _ $60,000. Charlotte (N. C.) Bank Official Is Missing. Charlotte, N. C., March 2.—Frank H.
