LYNCHING NARROWLY AVERTED AT NEWPORT. Police Carry Negro in Surf Up to His Neck to Protect Him. Newport, R. I, July 4.—Ten thousand people, men and women, - witnessed a riot at Newport Beach tonight when a negro, fleeing from a sailor he had stabbed in the back, shot and killed 14,year-old boy. For nearly an hour police reserves battled desperately with tho mob, which was deiermined to get possession of the colored man. Only by carrying him into the surf and hold- ing him in the water up to his neck beyond the reach of the crowd did the police succeed in retaining him. The trouble started when Rabu and Lloyd Maloney, ordinary seamen, from the naval training sta- tion, were jostled in the crowd on_the beach, According to the police, Ma- loney says he had turmed to expostu- late when Bradley Smith, 20 years old, colored, struck him. In the mixup which followed Smith is alieged to have stabbed Rabu beneath the left shoulder blade. With the two sailors in _pursuit, Smith started down the beach. Oppo- | site the roller coadter. the police y, he drew a revolver and began to shoot at his pursuers. William KEgan, 14 years old, dropped with a bullet in his right eye. The boy was rusmed to the Newport hospital, but died on the ay. Smith was knocked down by a civilian and captured, but before the patrol wagon could reach the scene he was surrounded by a mob and cries of “Liynch him!” arose. Z The officers got their prisoner into the surf and after holding off the mob there for a time, rushed him into a smail office building. - In_an instant the mob had started to pull the build- ing to pieces. Windows were beaten in, blinds ripped off and some of the crowd forced themselves into the room where the prisoner was held. A mid- shipman from one of the battleships, | trying to hold back a crowd of sailors eager for revenge, was knocked down and trampled. At that moment the patrol wagon arrived, and while some of the police held off the' crowd the prisoner was rushed into the vehicle and taken to the police station.

Thero were 17 in the party, including the um- pire. All were thrown off, and whilo most _escaped with a few bruises Ern- est C, Landgraff, the team manager who sai with the driver, had his right leg broken. Frank Hardy, of Provi: dence, R.

President Wilson New York, July 4 York tonight spent three hours in New | resting at the University club after a thrilling all-day_journey by special train from Washington by way of| Gettysburg, where he stopped for an hour to make a brief speech to the Civil war veterans. The president was raced across Pennsylvania and New Jersey at & speed sometimes approaching 0 miles | an hour. Most of the way his train consisted of a private car of steel, a | wooden day coach &nd an engine. | There was no apparent need for h: as the president’s schedule did not c for his arrival in New York until 813 tonight, but between Gettysburg and | Philadelphia the special train struck up top speed and before the president realized it he was only a few miles from the Quaker City. He sent in word to have the engineer slow down, and his wishes were heeded. The president’s party, however, found that they were two hours ahead ot their schedule. The president’s first inclination was to make a stop en route for two hours s0 as to arrive in New York as ar- ranged, but he changed his mind and orders were given to make New York | by 6 oclock. The railroad officials cleared the way between Philadelphia and New York and sent the special over a freight track with another burst of speed. The only stops made en route today were for water. Just what the reason for the flying trip of the president was could not be learned, as immediately on his arrival in New York he merely took a long automobile ride on Riverside Drive to | get a breath of air, as the day’s ride was through sweltering heat and dust.
